Controls: WASD + mouse. Shift to run. Space to jump.
Everything around us has a story behind it, but in our daily lives we tend to take things at face value. Ripple is an experiment in exploring what's beneath the surface of our surroundings.
I'm not sure the game was displaying properly. I could use the arrow keys to slowly pan the screen, and the mouse would quickly pan it. Nothing would get revealed when I panned with the mouse.
You walk forward by pressing w and hold shift to run. If you feel like you're not moving, it's probably because the flag in the beginning is a bit far away.
Pretty trippy, I liked the concept heaps, but if it had been longer and more difficult to figure out where to go/peer beneath it could have been more thought provoking. Some collision issues, but I did like the simple poly models. Pretty cool ^_^
Nice graphics and atmospheric level. The start reminded me of a horror game, though I forget the name, one where start in the snow and find the entrance to a strange underground area. In your game it turned out you go through the world into another world underneath. :P I'm not sure if there was a goal or a reason not to run all the time, but I made it to the house at the end, and saw a black screen afterwards when music started playing.
The way the scenes transition was something I've never seen before; was really neat! The atmosphere was good, but audio throughout could have helped sell it more, rather than just at the end (unless that was a glitch on my end?) Good job overall though!
I like the environments and background sounds, and transitions between locations. I noticed that when I click in the web player, the game just freezes and I have to start over.
The audio is great. And hence it kind of reminds me of a game called "9.03m" actually... I guess this game can be further developed in some way similar to that one?

Wow, that was surreal. Would've loved to play more, it's a pity the game is so short.

Is this how I'm supposed to see it?
Good job overall though!
The web version didn't work on my machine, and when I played the game on any graphics setting above "fast" it also didn't work.
Diferente and curious.
Very Intriguing, but I didn't understand what happens and what is the end...
