Soulmates
This game is from the old Ludum Dare platform. You can try viewing the original page on Web Archive

My last game (for LD29 "Beneath the Surface") was super depressing and dark, so I've come full circle. Soulmates is about as fluffy, sticky sweet, and happy a game as you can get.
My take on the theme: connect the worlds of two people who otherwise wouldn't have met. Essentially, you are cupid and you need to make sure two future love bird's eyes meet. It's a puzzle game inspired by Spry Fox's Road Not Taken, with very simple interactions with the environment to alter the course of the characters.
Controls:
- Click on objects in the environment to perform actions (knock over crates, open flowers).
- Click the right arrow ( -->) in the upper left corner to advance the characters along their paths.
Features:
- 9 mind-bending levels! (okay they are pretty easy)
- Toothache-inducing graphics and effects
- Sound effects from my own mouth, including some rather flat vocals
- More polish than gameplay
- Attempts at inclusivity in character design (yay!)
- Love and fun
Tools used:
- Unity2D (4.6 Beta)
- Inkscape
- Audacity
