A critique of the current "famous status quo",how many people would like to be one of those indie celebrites there today?,
we're surrounded by words that attack us through replication systems, words from human interactions,
it has been scientifically proven that time is a mental conception caused by the relationship between human beings and things,
where words play a very important role as they have great mental strength,
if I tell you the name of an object from your house, you will not see the original model because you have an exact copy in your
brain as well, so you do not need to see it even.
This game shows the words as objects, and you can only choose a path in life, my indie pal:
+ love
+ money or
+ health,
depending on how you use your time and the relationships in real life, you have to go along with other things
that can move you forward in your life ,or backwards even to the death...,
The spheres are a metaphor for a better time, the dream of the future to be completed, with the only thing that is given
at the beginning of the road, what can you grow in your life and others lifes?

...
instructions
1 choose your way
2 cross the limit of the road
3 use mouse click 1 or gamepad 1 to shoot

Full points for theme! Something bizarre about the whole thing too... like life :)

@Thommy probably because Intel gfx?

@juaxix may be worth uploading a flash version to be more accomodating

@Thommy open the .ste in shiva engine and run it, you can even export it to the platform you like.

@endesga thanks, are you willing to be a indy fav star? :D

played until the end and didn't really get it.
the controls were confusing in the flash version.
cool effort though.

Like the concept, would be cool with maybe simpler controls, I kept dragging the mouse into the floor at the bit with the globes and the flying lazer things.

The camera was a little awkward for me--eventually found myself staring at the floor and unable to see anything. Is there a win condition or do you shoot forever?

Love the little box-man + walk cycle. I laughed pretty hard at "bitcoin." Good job!

This is somewhat mesmerizing...
I like how you throw your light, and how some parts remain lighten...

My bad, Isn't the right game, I'm commenting at(yes, multiple tabs...)
I found this game quite cool in it's squarish style.
I think the camera wasn't easy to use.But I like the metaphor.
