The visual artistry is great, love that. Everything else I'm quite puzzled by as I don't understand what's the goal of the game, don't have any reference on my health or enemies or anything else. I don't think it quites align with the theme either, at least not knowing what's going on... But nice visual/ambience exercise :)
Great aesthetics and mood. The sounds add to that too. However, I came to the arena some other way the enemies did not start spawning. So at first I didn't know what to do (and walked through those houses).
So from a gameplay perspective, it's OK. From aesthetics, it is freaking awesome!
Ambiance and visuals are awesome, love the little effects and very satisfying cutting through those guys! Not sure if I understand how it relates to theme but otherwise great. :)
Very consistent how the audio and visuals work together. The controls where sort of hard in terms of staying alive. But I expect that was not the point of the game. I really enjoyed it. Must have been a lot of work going into it. I would have liked to encounter more story parts than just what I got from the bird and the death. I think the game could be really awesome if the story evolves over the course of one dying and dying and dying. Anyways, very beautiful and inspiring game.
It's extremely artistic and seems to have a lot of thought put into it for 3 days. I watched your progress on twitter and downloaded this as soon as possible after the jam.
Looks and feels incredible. The shader work is amazing - are they standard unity shaders (the cool new free ones are great!) or did you write them yourselves? They were super well curated - the face mosaic effect was an excellent touch.
Had to run the game in 640 x 480 or it would lag. Well done :P
However there's not much of any game there, I couldn't find anything that I could do other than fall into the water and die. And I clipped through everything, the big shiny door - clipped through, the down arrow - clipped through.
The long tedious walk was also a bit of a downer, especially since there was... Not much at the end of it...
Again, looks amazing :) Wish there were more game!
Lovely atmosphere and graphics, but the one-hit kills and difficult attack timing, along with having to restart down that long pier, made it frustrating.
I don't know if there is an ending, but if there is I didn't find it. But it is a very mysterious game with a unique mood, it feels like there is a lot to learn about this guy and this world and i would love to see a more complete game of this!
I really like the tone and atmosphere in this entry. Audio is great, reminds me of the signal in the film "mission to mars". Would have liked more of a conclusion or end event but great work nonetheless
There is a really good atmosphere in this game, it's very eerie and the audio static adds a good level of distortion. I wish there was a bit more of a description of what to do.
I like the graphic style and how it make the mood. It would be nice to have some checkpoint when the battle begin. Also I feel lack of possibility to move the camera with my mouse.
I loved the mystery and style of this game. And that bird was cool. I dont even know it was just great. Only wish that I could control the camera more but somehow it still fit. Also dem particles. It was great good job!
Really unique mood to this game. Makes me very curious to find out more about it. I actually feel like this graphical style would be great for and adventure game with a really unique story to it.

But the camera doesn't help too much with the action and I don't have any idea to how it ends. Maybe the bird gives you a hint of that.
Overall, the game passes.
