Infantile Oceanic Feeling by andreimarks

[raw]
made by andreimarks for LD29 (JAM)
Just use your mouse. Left click, scroll wheel, right click.

It's an ecology game. Place lifeforms and see how they interact.

Escape to restart, force quit to quit (I'll change that...).

The immediacy and vibrancy of the graphics is really fun, and the music is nice. I didn't have much sense of progress, but it was a fun click-stuff-see-things-happen game.

That was fun, really enjoyed seeing what the creatures did.

Astonishing game. I think I've managed to build a self-sustaining ecosystem on all but the deepest level.

I liked the art, simple and effective, but I didn't understand I had to do on the game, maybe I've missed something.

woah, there are really not many reactions to this. maybe you haven't played many yourself, because this is interesting.

Not sure how things work, but it is intruiging and the looks and sounds of it make it worthwhile to play around for a while, even if I don't understand it.

What added to the confusion is that the icon for the animal/plant you're placing is quite different from the thing you see when placed.
So some instructions mighyt help.

I really enjoyed experimenting and observing how the different lifeforms behave and interact. Nice visuals and audio, too. Great job!

The idea is great! And the production is stunning. It lacks of difficulty (maybe limit the number of beings X resources)
Its a shame this is not compo, I would love to check the source.

Interesting experience. Graphics and music were great!
But sorry, couldn't really get what I was doing... I placed some of each lifeform, saw some trees grow, flowers blooming and withering and fishes... swimming... I also saw a some flowers dieing after a while... But that's all I could see/understand.

Not sure what all the things do, seems like only the eyes have any direct influence on energy levels deeper down? What do the plant and fish do?

It took a little while to work out what was going on, but when I did I loved it! Awesome work!

This looks amazing and that's why I'm so frustrated about the lack of explanation. I wasn't quite able to figure how each form of life influenced the system =/
