THE SKIES ARE A FALLIN' by glbs

[raw]
made by glbs for LD29 (COMPO)
BEWARE : SANDBOX VERSION!!!

------------------------------------------------------

I didn't have the time to create a proper level, nor to implement what I intended to justify this title...

I also discovered a bit late that using too many transparent blocks was a serious problem with performance!

Anyway, you can still have a look around and try to activate or destroy some stuff, maybe also blend some lights. Don't fall off the platform though, unless you see a sort of inviting surface!

--------------------------------------------------------

WASD/ZQSD : move
MOUSE : look around
ESC : pause & unlock cursor


Thanks for trying!

I love the concept and the art. You should have done different levels, because the idea works really good. Game runs a bit slow but its playable :)

Interesting concept! While waiting for the sky to fall I managed to fall off the platform. :)

It isn't bad, though I'm not catching the "beneath the surface" theme for this.

Cool concept but is it over after activating the black thing?I didn't know what to do after that

This has the makings of something interesting, but it doesn't really make much sense at the moment. It certainly looks quite nice, and the light beams coming from the squares look cool. I'd like to see where you're going with this.

Thank you all for your feedback.
Well, nothing's really implemented yet and there's actually nothing else to do after activating the black thing... I spent too much time coding bricks that aren't even used there!
But I'll try to finish it

Neat! I got one of the ships (?) to fly off by lighting up the colored circles. Very abstract, but interesting. I liked the transparency and color scheme. I hope you finish making the game.

Good concept. Do you make post-compo?

Nice Concept, the game runs slow sometimes... but it's cool anyway

Really liking the graphical style, would be intrigued by a post compo version.

Yea, the game's a bit laggy, but looks absolutely beautiful!!
