Looking Glass by sudorossy

[raw]
made by sudorossy for LD30 (JAM)
A story about Exploring the galaxy through a use of an alien technology known only as "Looking Glass"

I didn't get as many worlds as I'd like done. It's purely an exploration game, there's no enemies as such.

I won't spoil anything, but there's a secret world or two to find, you'll not find the code anywhere in-game. Keep an eye out in other places though ;)

Good work on this! I liked the idea and the transition between words was as smooth visually as it was mechanically.

This was super ambitious! It's a real blast to explore-- I look forward to finding a secret or two, haha! Really great looking!

Despite it running very badly on my piece of shit laptop the transition between worlds is amazing, so uncanny it's like walking through a Tardis. I really like when people use impossible space in games, it's just a really weird feeling.

I too liked the transitions. I couldn't find secret worlds :)

There wasn't too much to play, but I did like pretty much everything there, and believe this could be turned into something bigger. ...if one has the budget :D

Could really do with some sound (and maybe some element of puzzle solving where you have to hop back and forth between worlds) but I love how each world you've created is well designed and the main gameplay concept fits the theme very well.

Couldn't find the secret worlds. Also, I got blocked by an invisible wall when climbing. :<
Also, the character movement is kinda slow, would like to have a running option or something.

Sorry about the invisible walls Sunflower! I could only have small areas around each gate, as everything had to fit in one scene :(

I had plans for Music and Audio, but sadly ran out of time before I could implement it

It's quite beautiful but I've never seen a game more desperate for some sound.

Wonderful graphics, and nice idea. Very well done. I like it.
A bit of music would have made this an even better experience.
I liked the floating text, that was great!

Really enjoyed the feel of this one. only crit is the stairs at the first room required a jump to get up. Loved the portal/stargate approach. great work!
