You are a cloud of light and hold the power to make your foes(the whirlwinds) minimalistic! Also you grab the magic raindrops that lies above the other clouds and they give you score.
Worked in Unity3d 4 pro trail. Graphics mostly done in Procreate with iPad. Sound done with mic and free tools on the internet.
Hitboxes seem a bit off - like, I die to whirlwinds when I don't feel like I even touched them. The fact that you have to restart from the beginning adds to the frustration this creates. Would be nice if you had more than one life.
Colissions in general seem a bit buggy. You can get blocked from jumping while pressing against a seemingly vertical wall - here's the area I'm talking about: http://i.imgur.com/2FdepSQ.png. I also fell through a moving platform once. Another thing is that shooting doesn't always work when you're mid-air.
Thanks for the comments so far and I'm super happy that you seem to like the graphics! I must say though, I had quite some trouble getting into Unity's way of handling collisions, and I know it to be very frustrating when the game glitches more often than not. :(
As for the theme I realize it might not be too obvious, but the shooting results in enemies becoming minimalistic; they're transformed into boxes! :)
Cool game with a neat style and feeling to it! The block mechanic felt well utilized and well combined with the platforming. The graphical style is great, the clouds felt really fluffy! :D However, I felt that the light source on the player, which felt cool at first, became a little annoying to look at after a while. I had some trouble with the collision as well, falling through the floor on several occasions. Also you might want to shorten the foot step sound. Anyway, cool idea and neatly implemented, the tutorial creatures are adorable. :)

Sweet, 8300. I really enjoyed this. I found a bit of a glitch, though - If you walk off the edge of a vertically-moving platform, you carry on moving as if you were on it, so you can basically walk through the air.
I think the glitch comes when there is 2 collisions ( x axis + down) : when the x-axis condition is taken, the program forget down-condition, and you go through the floor.
The art design (graphics and sound) are realy fine, but the level-design is not realy interesting...
Maybe you spent too much time for graphics. Personaly I think level-design is more important than graphic (gameplay prime on graphics). I made this mistake on my first LD, finaly I had good graphics, but not a game...
