When I thought about the "Below the Surface" theme, and the idea of "hollow earth" poped into my mind - I knew I didn't have an idea for actuall gameplay, but just wanted to check how the hollow Earth concept would feel. The controls are a bit strange because I fixed them an hour before the deadline ;) Although the player gets positioned correctly (always aligned along the "sun-current position" axis) the actual movement moves you "in front when you are looking" - that's way it's possible to fly (just look up) and fall below Earth (look down). I alredy got an idea for a mini-project based on this concept and code: stay tuned for more! (and maybe look for "Vinyl Pixels" on Facebook to stay up to date? ;))"},{"author_name":"Ragzouken","author_uid":"13822","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 10:00pm","epoch":1398808500,"text":"the game of thrones theme is playing in my head :D"},{"author_name":"Neonlare","author_uid":"1913","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 10:16pm","epoch":1398809460,"text":"Not really a game, but it was interesting to toy with for a while.
