Bug: IN CASE YOU CANT USE YOUR COLOR, TRY SHIFT + Z

Go Home is a colorful isometric puzzle game about finding where you belong. Use different color-powers to solve puzzles and reach your destination.

This was a lot of fun to make! My best LD entry to date by far! I loved using Hexels for art, and I suggest it to everyone out there http://www.hexels.com/ . Also, Game Maker: https://www.yoyogames.com/studio . Other obligations made me enter the jam, and I wish I had time to make a few more levels and work on level design, but otherwise this game is complete! Enjoy.

Love the graphical style on this. Gameplay could be more fun if you had more time to work on it. Awesome effort!

Level 3 was odd and the web browser said something about failed to load image, nevertheless, loved the graphics of it

Very nice looking. Levels didn't provide much of a challenge though.

It's nice to see your progress. I remember your first game on LD25 for whatever reason. But yea, this has a pretty neat art style going on, the gameplay mechanic is a bit too simple though. Could have used some particles when the player shoots something too. Other than that really nice job!

graphics are really nice! would love to see this idea expanded on further (and gamepad support!)

gorgeous colors, love the visual appeal

would like to move the player faster! felt slowww but looks nice

Nice visuals! I took me quite a while to figure out that I need to press Cmd+Z (capital z) to use colors. I think you should be able to just press z alone. Also the sound effects are too loud compared to the background music. But overall it's a very nice little game!

Jago: Hmmm that shouldn't happen... Sorry.

Very calm. Some simple ambient music would really help set the mood, though.

Really lovely style and nice ambiance. An idea definitely worth expanding.

Nice game. The simple art style is really nice.

Loved the visual design and the puzzels.

Loved the idea and overall artistic style. It is a bit short, sadly: I wanted to play longer :_S

Not bad. Visuals are looking good.
But there isn't any challenge. Leveldesign looks boring for me...

VERY good graphical choices. very moody.

the controls are a bit confusing and the character is slow...

it lacks some sense of challenge or decision making.

strangly enough, i really liked it.

Very impressive game!

stvr19 Dec 2013, 13:35

Neat idea! Maybe the movement was a bit slow, but the concept is solid and the graphics are super pretty!

I love the palette! :D

I really liked the atmosphere you created. It would be nice if it could be reconciled with a faster pacing.

Love the look - it would be interesting to see where you could take this post-jam. I'd probably speed up the player a bit - would make the areas where you need to backtrack feel less like a chore.
