Marbles by Lokarunith
My second Ludum Dare
A story based game about a couple with a special connection.
There are 3 endings.
Arrow keys to move,
mouse to advance trough the dialogue
If you're having problms playing the web version, the desktop version should work fine.
- Game might not work well in firefox! -

I dig the surreal 3D models.
It is confusing when the controls switch from mouse to arrow keys... it didn't immediately register with me as a "platforming" level.
I enjoyed this, but it's pretty bare-bones in terms of gameplay... maybe a playable version of the marbles game described or something could've added more immersion.
I had trouble with it as well. The web version crashed Firefox and the downloaded windows version lagged a lot between scenes.
I had problems in Web version.
The game is really different, with an intriguing story and plot.
The controls is difficult, and layout didn't help with understand the game.
But, good job!
App for OS/X doesn't work either...
and thanks again for playing and commenting!
I don't know if I happened to get all three endings in the perfect order, but it was really interesting that each one shed light on the imagery and themes from one of the previous endings.
The surreal and fractured imagery fits the theme and mood really nicely.
I was going to mention that I liked the dynamic main menu, and then when I went back to look at it again, I just realized what the menu was! :D
It's awesome that you worked so much hidden meaning into this. The backgrounds. The recurring motifs of certain objects. (Don't want to spoil anything.)
This is one of the most unique entries I've seen.
Keep up the good work. :)
