Follow The Light by kostka

[raw]
made by kostka for LD30 (COMPO)
This is my first game ever. You need to find light which will take you to other labyrinth in other world.

Exit will work only playing using exe file.
Next level take you to the beginning of 1 level as I did not finish 2 level on time.

Welcome to my labyrinth ;]

Linux! : I build Linux version but I don't have possibility to check, if it works. Tell me if something is wrong.

Hi, Liked the graphics and mood. Found the first light, wasn't sure how to proceed - some instructions on webpage or in game would be good. Looks good - as far as I could get!

The idea is cool. The light is the connection of the two worlds. However, I don't know how to proceed to the next level, as I got Next Leve or Exit popup, and I chose Next Level, it returns the same old level.

Liked the concept. It was neat to see the transition to get you to find the next light. Too bad that you weren't able to finish the second level in time, but not a bad start for 48 hours!

The controls didn't work for me :<. I tried web and windows version and I kept walking into one wall, diagonally. Tried everything with mouse and keyboard. Anyway, nice artwork ;)

Only thing that comes to my mind is that maybe you have connected joypad? I once heard about that kind of problem with xbox joypad, but not in this game.
Noone had problem with playing :(

I like the graphics and concept, but it is difficult to judge with just a tutorial level. Maybe next levels with enemies, traps and so, would improve the fun a lot.

I like the perspective. You should expand this with levels, sounds, enemies, objects etc.

In the beginning I had an idea, that the labyrinths are different worlds not only in colour. I wanted to make some cave,forest and other different environments. Hero was supposed to look for his way home through all this worlds, and find it at the end.
But this is idea which can be improved beside contest, because 48 hours was to short time to build even second level, for beginner like me:P

I am sure that I will make more levels in September after exams.

Hmm, I really like the basic concept of a labyrinth of lights. Perhaps the lights could be seen from further away so that you know what general direction you're supposed to head but then allow the maze to make a direct path unavailable, thus making it more puzzling. Would love some music and sound effects! I'm guessing I saw the whole thing, though I was really hoping to see more. But I totally realize that you wanted to create a lot more and just ran out of time. Played through it twice in a row, so I guess I enjoyed it! (:

Nice work, especially for your first game! Congratulations! Will you expand it?

@Drew Van Camp
Yes I will.
I can't wait, as I'll pass the exams, I'll be expanding the game.
I have more desire with every positive comment. I'm very happy when I see that my first game is so well accepted. It encourage me for action.
