Unto Her As She To You is a small, romantic, artsy game about placing blocks and building two worlds.

Use the mouse to place down blocks. The blocks on the right show you what's coming next. Over time, poetry appears and the rules of the game change. By placing down blocks in certain patterns, you try to make the ones shown on the left. Complete all 6 to find the good ending.

Made by Calahan Janik-Jones

Programmed in Unity 3D, trial edition, 4.3.3f1 (I really should update, hehe). Sounds from users stomachache, Glameur de sons, Sub-d, and SouthernUK via freesound.org

There were only 5 spaces, so I couldn't put the Linux download up there. You can get it from here:

EXTREMELY creative game with just enough curveballs in the mechanics to keep me engaged. Well done.

Good game, did not get the point of it though, but I got that it was about a love story.

Very creative, more contrasted hues could make the game easier.

Nice idea. Kind of challenging to keep track of the 6 patterns (especially when second world appears), but still, neat game.

Liking this one.

Took me two attempts to beat, has a good difficulty for an LD-game.
To improve replayability you could make the patterns on the left randomized.

Very interesting game. It was very confusing at first but I managed to get all 6 patterns. Awesome concept.

Good puzzle game with a nice aesthetic and surrounding biz. Cool.

Took me quite a while but I finished it successfully eventually.

Really relaxing game, even though I am horrible at it. Didn't get the point either. I love the color scheme and music, but I think using premade music is against the 48h compo rules :/.

Great game, my only complaint is the low variation in the blue tones.

Lines of poetry as levels - that's a very interesting idea. I found it hard to see the specific colours, and I had to move very slowly and carefully to understand whether I could match anything.

The sound was minimal and a nice fit for the poetry. (Although remember that the LD48 compo rules require you to make all the sounds during the hours of the competition.)

Good, engaging game – I played until the end (although I didn't *quite* make it to the happy ending).

This is lovely. Nice work :)

Very nice look, and nice concept, but really hard to get my head around this puzzle. I didn't manage to get the good ending. I got too frustrated with the mechanics as they were new to me.

I love the romantic notion of it! just didn't get how the thing with the sets of colours works.. i'll try again later :)

Hi there. Interesting puzzle, liked the peaceful sea sounds. Found the puzzle itself very much like office work. I couldn't remember the all targets so referring back and forth the whole time, which broke my engagement with it.
