Beneath the Cave by feiss

made by feiss for LD29 (COMPO)

Done in 6 hours! :(

Use cursor keys to move, X to talk.

With a surprise at the end screen, didn't want to spoil it with a screenshot :p

Many things left to do, of course. I think it could have some potential, adding obstacles, puzzles, and more graphic adventure elements. Oh, and I think "Beneath The Noise" could be a better title.. :/

oh, thanks to Photonstorm for his support and Phaser!

Short, but sweet game. Really nice color palette and animations.

Beautiful graphics but not much really to the game. No replay-ability.

I liked this a lot and wanted to see more, wish you would've spent more than 6 hours on it :)

Nice little "game" (more like animated novel). I really like visual mood and the ending ;)

For only taking 6 hours the game is so good, phaser performs cool!

Very impressive presentation, there's definitely solid basis to take this further. Feels like I just watched an opening cutscene without being able to play the game though, but as I say it looks excellent and I like the characters :)

Sad that you hadn't the time to extend it (with some sort of adventure gameplay). But the art is very well done and together with the teasered "backstory", you could create something very special.

Neat presentation. It has the feel and idea of something magnificent, are you going to extend it?

Wow, thank you for the kind words, I didn't expect such this welcome. :)

I feel I could expand it a lot indeed, but don't know if it's worth it.. I'll see how it goes :)

Looks really good. To bad there is no real gameplay. But the art style and mood is astonishing.

Absolutely Unbelievable. All my money is down on this one winning. At least on graphics. Excellent job

Dialogue font aside, the visuals are peerless. I love controlling non-human characters too. Shame it doesn't really go anywhere.

I was wondering what I am supposed to do- dodge something? kill something? sit on something? but then i noticed the sunset and the rest of the scene after that and i just sat there marvelling at it all.

Thanks guys. Cageinabird, it's funny you complain about the font, because I tried to change it but didn't work (line 6 in the html source code) :D

The game has a really nice a calm mood.
With some ambient music it would be perfect.

I wish there was more to explore! The bird flight is exceptionally well done.

Great style. Would have loved to see what you could have added with the whole 48 hours :)

For only 6 hours the graphics and animations are really impressive. And although it's quite short, it made me smile.

Very well done!

Thrilling. One can find this experience a lot deeper than it was supposed to be. Noise concept reminds me of this short story:
