Do you know Astral Travel? Out-Of-Body-Experience (OBE)? No? Nevermind. This little game simulates the return journey of a bunch of astral bodies of a schizophrenic dude to his phisical body.
It's a little (minimal) action/puzzle game composed by 10 levels, with an amazing end-screen.
Made with Construct 2 (HTML5 format).
Enjoy!

Cool!

Very cool idea!

matthias_zarzecki29 Apr 2013, 02:16

Ha, this is a fun idea! Especially when all the bodies are radially arragned and move in an iris-shape :P

I like the controls, great idea :) Wish I would stop losing my purple guys off the edge of the screen :S

Very cool game xD

Yezu29 Apr 2013, 04:49

Nice idea :)

nicotuason29 Apr 2013, 05:13

Good challenge, but it's hard to tell if the guys are moving forwards of backwards

Uhfgood29 Apr 2013, 06:29

challenging

shaircast29 Apr 2013, 06:59

Cool idea :) Really hard game

Chman29 Apr 2013, 07:20

Cool concept. However the sound was a little harsh...

JonRB29 Apr 2013, 07:59

Great overall! A couple of typos but a fun and challenging game that manages to stay true to the theme.

rujo29 Apr 2013, 08:21

nice one, kinda reminded me some lemmings mechanics

unclejunkie29 Apr 2013, 09:29

Nice concept, good game!

Yacodo29 Apr 2013, 10:10

Disturbing !

Thank you everyone for your comments. I'll visit you ASAP!

Tricky game !

bummzack29 Apr 2013, 11:57

Really cool idea. Took me a while to figure out what "astral-call" (TM) actually does :)

zitheker29 Apr 2013, 12:28

This is a nice idea. quite surprising and difficult to control the first time, but i have a lot of fun. ^^

Level 1: Oh, I just hold up until they eventually get to the target
Level 2: Oh, I just arrange them into a neat row by smashin them into a screen border and then send them up all at once
Level 6: How do I do this?!?!

A really cool game!

Nolojen29 Apr 2013, 14:54

very interesting concept, plays well

BradleySmith29 Apr 2013, 15:17

Really neat little game.

Astral travel! Creepy! Good work

Husky29 Apr 2013, 16:26

lol.
It's really a fun idea!

saggiosoftauthor29 Apr 2013, 18:57

Thank you. Your comments are very encouraging.

hamrath29 Apr 2013, 19:33

Cool game! Sound was too loud, though (reduce audio by 10db in Construct, it helps a lot).

HeiShun29 Apr 2013, 19:54

I went to level 6.
Quite cool but forward/backward was really weird sometimes (or is it just me?).
A little "Lose" would have been welcome when your spirits are lesser than the number of spirits you need ! lol
Didn't see I couldn't "win" after some time in the second map because of the trap :p

peggiosoft29 Apr 2013, 19:58

oh god this is really annoying. if you wanted to drive people crazy, well, you succeded.
anyway, a little hint: use shorter description. nobody wants to to read that much :P

Martin_Monosys29 Apr 2013, 21:00

Nice idea, might need some sound...

Lidfrid29 Apr 2013, 21:34

Cool idea! :) Maybe you could differentiate the front from the back of the guy! :D

folmerkelly29 Apr 2013, 22:03

I dig this. The visuals don't seem to coherent despite clearly being inspired by the theme, which kinda distracts me at times.

JohnnySix29 Apr 2013, 22:54

Cool idea - was difficult to tell which way the astral bodies were facing sometimes, which was a little challenging. Maybe some astral faces are in order if you continue to develop it post competition. :)
