You play as a young Kazimir, who came into modern art to reform it and turn every classic painting into a cute black square.

So minimalistic, right?

Let's start with Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus", but beware, those painted figures will struggle to keep their forms less edgy!

May the Square be with you.

CONTROLS:

* ARROWS to move.

* SPACE to jump (and double jump and even wall-jump).

* SHIFT to run.

* X to use your brush and spawn a tiny piece of art flying forward (literally: FIRE).

CREDITS:

The game developed by KISS team during Omsk Ludum Dare 48 hours Jam (OLD48):

* Alex Shestakov and Natalia Rozvezeva as developers.

* Stepan Zalezkiy as graphical artist.

* Artem Patyn as composer / sound designer.

It's generally fun, but definitely too short, it would be great if there were more paintings. I really liked the music.

Fun, controls are a little hard, but I like the idea! Great job.

Too much gameplay...

Just wish the level was bigger, or there was another level. Good music, but I wish there were sounds for the enemies when they get hit. Over a bit too quick.

Nice idea but I think a lil bit too short.

Really great everything except for gameplay. The menus, music and the framing (no pun intended) of the game was nice, but when you actually gain control it's quite loose and floaty. Though it was a very nice surprise to fight Venus in a videogame, gotta give you that!

I like the game and the idea that you can hide behind the remains of defeated enemies. Its a nice game, but very short...

Hey this is really well made. Good music, great action. I can't tell if I beat the level or just died.

Really fun little game.

I enjoyed the movement in this game. The double-jumping and firing felt really natural.
Too bad there's only one level, I would have loved to tackle more paintings.

The Win32 mode said it was missing a data folder.

A fun game, wish there were more levels(paintings)though.
The music was nice but the gameplay was a bit on the rough side, could use with a bit more polish.

So I beat the game, not as rewarding as I expected, but at least it had a nice mood to it! The game itself is pretty hard and ended up dying many times. I'm not sure if there were multiple levels or if I kept replaying the same one. Anyways, it had good smooth animations, unique painting humor, and a catchy soundtrack.
