Loved this whole thing! It all feels very mysterious and made me wonder

This looks like a cool game! But that walking sound... Anyway, I couldn't figure out what to do :( I went to the gems and the launch button just kept making explosions and I couldn't seem to interact with the environment. And once I was outside, there was no coming back! I think an instruction page would be a good idea. But I love the style of your game and the eerie, mysterious, otherworldly vibe it has. nice job :)

Moody game. Some instructions would have been nice but I guess finding things on your own is part of it's charm. :)

Hard to understand what I was supposed to do at first. Loved the way his fit juggle on the floor :D
naksrifati25 Aug 2014, 06:39

Pretty enjoyable!! Lots of mystery to discover and it feels good too ' u '

Game is really interesting...but oh god the walking noise.
FerrenReve25 Aug 2014, 07:29
Fantastic game, but a bit hard to figure out.

Walking sound is great :)

This was fantastic. Loved every bit (minus the walking noise :P )

Interesting art. I don't get the computer controls though.. It's like my first Win8 experience all over again.
Please explain better how to control computer - or is it part of a puzzle.
cmayhem25 Aug 2014, 08:20
Took a while to figure out the computer and still not sure...
Love the animation though.

As the others, too hard to understand but pretty, nice stuff overall

Really cool, i really like these mysterious games. took me a while to figure out the travelling.
Kedume Bits25 Aug 2014, 08:42
I like a lot the graphics. I've been playing for a while but i don't know what to do (i've pulled out the screws but nothing else...).
Ryan Melmoth25 Aug 2014, 09:02
I like the aesthetics! Would be nice if in-game it tells you to press X to interact, and maybe about the screws, other than that I really enjoyed the mystery and discovery!

Nice style, it reminds me to The Neverhood, do you know it?
bogdanmaier4925 Aug 2014, 11:05
Took me a while to find out what I need to do. (maybe is just me). Nice game tho.

Liked the interactivity and mood but not sure what I was meant to do.

I wasn't really sure what to do in the beginning, everything was very cryptic, but I think that works in favor of the game. When I finally managed to launch to another planet, I felt proud for figuring something out! A very cool and mysterious game.

What happened? Am I dead? Game screen went black when I entered building in the last (?) planet... Is this it?

Hint for people, who are looking how to play: unscrew the "computer" panel, move white pieces to it, then toggle buttons with particular symbols & launch your ship to planets they direct to. Or something like that. Loved the game!
tbamberg25 Aug 2014, 21:22
the hint was helpful, so thanks for that!
otherwise, the game was fun, though I think the sounds need some work (or at least a lower volume).

Very charming! Took me a while to figure out what to do, but I liked exploring the planets once I did. I actually liked trying to figure out what to do, although the screws could stand out a bit more. Good job!
haveric25 Aug 2014, 22:28
That was quite strange, and once I got the control panel figured out, the rest was just really repetitive until I got the world with all the gems selected, went into a building, and then black screen. Is this the end? I really don't know.

Loved the walkcycle! I was only able to make it to one planet though :<

Think I managed to finish it finally! Nice concept.

I had fun with this after I figured out how to work the computer.
Note: the game bugs out if I press launch while I'm landing.
I liked the touch with the water world after you take the gem ;)
Wish you could've added more interesting things to the other planets.
Oh yeah, and the walk sound is annoying ;)

btw, what was the gun for?
and hint to everyone else: the crossed out planets are ones that don't have gems on them; I had thought they were ones that I had been to.
I made it to his house, pretty depressing planet :)
bobrocks26 Aug 2014, 02:32
Interesting take on the theme. I like the ridiculous graphics, audio was good. I like puzzle games like this. Popping off control panels and such! Old school bread and butter!
creative63026 Aug 2014, 02:33
So far, this has been my favourite LD30 entry! Love the art style and mood. Reminded me a little of The Neverhood which is a total win. Really can stress enough how much I love the mood of this!
GAFBlizzard26 Aug 2014, 07:27
Mysterious! I did not manage to figure out the computer once I got the cover off, though.
arttut0226 Aug 2014, 08:35
Too clever for me. Didn't know what to do. I loved that really weird graphics and animations, and the audio.. well it suited the graphics. Very interesting... and odd ;).

Neat game, though the walking sound gives me the creeps :D

I really liked the way the character was walking but I simply did not understand what to do / how to navigate the ship.
esayitch26 Aug 2014, 19:53
Highly moody atmospheric. Graphics are A+. I felt a but lost and being an impatient person this isn't what I would normally elect to play, but I see the charm and it is very well-made :D Good luck!
BeardoGames26 Aug 2014, 21:01
Wow, fantastic! It was a blast to just mess around with for quite some time, and the graphics are seriously triply and awesome. Excellent!
yodamaster27 Aug 2014, 16:50
Couldn't figure it out. Maybe make it easier in the beginning, and getting harder later.

udo27 Aug 2014, 19:11
Loved it. I almost missed how to move the ship, though. And that black screen is really the end?
AtomicVikings27 Aug 2014, 19:11
Awesome walk animation, could look at it for hours! shame the game is so short. would like to have seen more :D
John Drury28 Aug 2014, 19:49
Really confused on what to do. I took out the panel on my control system and picked up the stone and clicked on the buttons but didn't know what to do after.

character design is amazing authentic but i dont cant activate the ship! thats make me feel sad.. and very idiot :(
mrexcessive29 Aug 2014, 18:55
Hi there. Really like your game. The crazy graphics, the machine, the circuits, the galactic map - or whatever it is. Bookmarked for another look later. Good job!
SaintHeiser30 Aug 2014, 03:08
Intriguing idea and interesting world travel mechanic. But too laggy. At some moment computer interface not closed and staying on creen overlaying backgounds. So the character walked on the computer interface, HAH!

Impressive the atmosphere that this game creates with so little. Bizarre worlds with bizarre things, you can't even figure out what you are! Immersion is helped (maybe inadvertently) with the time spent inside "ship" trying to make the computer work.

Amazing game.
Pavel2 Sep 2014, 18:10
Great pixel art.
egor-idiot15 Sep 2014, 09:00
Didn't get idea what to do, but liked mood and animation of moving %)

Great entry! I had some trouble at first understanding what to do, I feel like the visual language is muddled and it is hard as a player to read the computer. However, I really enjoy the idea, execution (outside of visual language) and mood of this game. Really great concept. Nice work!

Magnific atmosphere. I had a lot of fun figuring out how the traveling system works.
