Lifestream by Manus

[raw]
made by Manus for LD 44 (COMPO)

Logical, visual adventure game about chasing fortune and losing yourself on your path.

  • Your task is to move some life energy by creating force fields with limited range!
  • You can also examine where are the black holes by loading energy and then clicking further.
  • By clicking you create a force field and remove the previous one.

Good luck :Dscr1.png

Oh. My. Goodness. That is one of the most visually beautiful games I have EVER seen. That's some Ori and the Blind Forest level visuals. Wow. There's still one thing I didn't quite understand: the controls. Sometimes the matter just spilled everywhere and sometimes it just stopped following.

But overall, that is an absolutely gorgeous game!

Okay the visuals are amazing and I just thought to myself "How?", but I am very confused on how to play the game...

Thanks :) I should have probably made it a bit more clearer. By clicking you make force fields with limited range, so to move you have to put them in close distances.

Nice visual and relaxing music but as say before quite difficult at first.
I stop in a level where I didn't find my way through the obstacles (the 5th or 6th I think).

Visually pleasing and the graphics/effects alone are a reason to stay and tinker with the gameplay :)

Wow. Visuals and audio are so beautiful. Love that

I got stuck on the second level without any idea how to finish it.
Maybe you could make some more intuitive controls :wink:

I also thought about drag mechanism, it should be more intuitive. Thanks for feedback :)

Amazing particles, it is clearly visible how much you've been practising making them.
I love the vibe, too.

Great work, Manus!

Beautiful game. The visuals and music are extraordinary. Controls are a bit unintuitive and could benefit from more detailed explaination. Also the black hole finding through clicking away and "exploding" the particles is great, but you're unable to detect any black holes that are further away because the particles are too slow. But overall I really loved it!

:sparkles: WOW! What a beautiful game! :sparkles: I would like it to be a full game in the future! Some mechanics are unintuitive, but you can get used to them. Black holes could be more visible :rotating_light: when the light touches them. And this philosophical plot! Good luck! :thumbsup:

Excellent particle work! The visuals are simple and minimal but the gorgeous particles really make it shine. The music is great as well. The message ties into the theme well but the gameplay not so much. One suggestion I have is for the money to be only partially illuminated when it still needs more life energy. Very stylish game here - great job!
