I love the art style of this game, but when you're first dropped in it gives little information on were to go, and there are a few areas with finicky collision, besides that it's a superb game.

@fallingflatstudios Thanks so much man! I was responsible for the art and audio, but yeah its all a little bit janky since we spent too much time on the vizdev of the tree area lol.

It's a short game with lovely art, I like the very beginning of the game, when you need to go through level using sound waves. But it needs some polishing

I got stuck at the tree because I wasn't able to jump, but really loved the atmosphere of the game. The effect from changing to the grayscale to color was also really cool.

What a cool entry! This has a very imaginative way of navigating your surroundings. It's such a cool mechanic, and I could see it being extrapolated into a full title. The graphics and audio give this game such a dark feeling, and I would give it 6 stars for mood if I could.
Great game!

@ropedog I’ve been trying to convince my programmer but he is pretty dead set on making something in 3D lol
