[raw]
made by RedPanda for LD29 (COMPO)
Both Google Drive and GameJolt provide standalones for Windows, Macintosh and Linux!

So this is my entry for this Ludum Dare. It's a side-scroller, platformer game, with some simple backstory that
I didn't really opened up.

Unity 2D tools really screwed me over, so movement is really
painful, I warned you. (Hint:Jump More)

It is really hurried and buggy.

Background:
In the world of only black, white and various shades of grey, colors sunddenly begin to appear. A simple man, seeing an odd light from cave near by, wishes to find out what the source of the light is. Do you wish to find out?

Controls:

Left: A or Left Arrow
Right: D or Right Arrow
Jump: W or Space or Up Arrow
Pause: Escape
Use: E

Edit:
Due to me being forgetful, lazy idiot, I forgot to add an Exit tag to last terminal, I think this is ok thing to fix after LD? Well I fixed it anyway...

Love the graphic style - like 8-bit Limbo. Impressive work! :)

Despite the control issues that you acknowledged, this game has an excellent mood. High points for Graphics/Audio/Mood!

Very interesting, the movement needs work, but the music and graphics definetly gave a great mood

Awesome game!, a little bit of controller issues but I looked past it; reminded me of the atmosphere Limbo gave me the first time I played.

I like the dark art style. The controls are very difficult though and I couldn't get the second terminal to work. I like where this is going though and would love to see a polished version.

Wonderful silhouette art. I particularly like that tree. Jumping only seemed to work sporadically for me, but you probably know that already (agree Unity needs to do a bit more work and some important bugfixes on the new 2D features). If it amuses you watching me try to jump and babble away with bad audio, Twitch stream exists here ( http://www.twitch.tv/m/491430 ) for a few days.

Very nice mood. The controls are quite hard to handle.

Great mood and graphics. Controls definitely need some work.

Nice graphics, too bad there are no animations for the character :(
The controls are a bit odd, sometimes there is a lot of friction and I can't move and sometimes when I get too much speed the character is sliding ^^

Cool graphics style, excellent mood. Controls are clunky, got stuck after using the teleport on the second level.

I really like it, its very inmersive. I was actually more bothered for the non-animated character than the controller (yes, it would be nice if it is fixed, but since its a 48hrs game i believe it's ok). Over all i believe you got something great here.
Cheers!

Cheerful mystery from the music. I enjoyed Scary Silhouettes.
