Left-click to select/pick up items, and right-click to drop them. Find & left-click the pictures/signs to progress. (the signs in the white dream scene of the original version of the game are a bit tricky to find, but we ran out of time to polish this level)
A game by: Chris Rhodes, Daniel Lush, Luke Dicken - Jones, Oliver Fayers, William Loveridge-Rushforth
Change log for post-jam version: * Player can no longer fly using the basketball * Added colliders to room ceiling to stop player being able to exit the room using the mirror * Reduced required number of successful basketball throws * Reduced number of signs in boneyard level * Improved basketball sounds * Player can no longer fish when not holding the fishing rod * Slightly re-positioned table in the room * Added colliders to some objects in the final level * Made basketball easier to pick up * Fixed glitch where mirror would be flashing white * Improved room window * Fixed a bug where door would lead to a small empty room, trapping the player * Made fishing rod easier to pick up * Player & fish no longer collide with surface of pool water * Pool now has a collider * Improved the spinning of the clock hands in the final level
I surprised by it's scope, based on the available time! Really liked the visuals and audio, although the part after the piano scene was very glitchy and I couldn't progress any further
@zsombro Thanks for the lovely comment! It's a shame you got stuck on the piano level, we had some bugs with various game mechanics trying to iron out the bugs before the deadline, but give it a go and see if you can reach the end if you like :D
I don't understand how the game works, so I ended up at the basketball part, with the doors that disappears... Was I supposed to open one of them ? Btw the game looks cool, but the music made the whole a little bit creepy...
@sir-galloy-de-fierpate Heya, bit confusing I know (would make it more obvious if we had more time). You gotta dunk the ball 5 times for the door to open, forgot to really add an audio queue for that :D (Left & Right click to use the ball)
Seems really cool, too bad it runs terribly :\ not sure if my pc or just some bug, low fps and super shaky cam, if I jump in the first room it goes crazy
Super laggy when I started it, but after that it was still pretty laggy. Overall nice game! I really liked how the camera motion blur looked, it really gave the mood a whole new dreamy effect.
@mindtricks Sorry about that, with more time we would definitely have put greater focus on optimization. We also used Unity's HDRP which certainly didn't help performance.
The basketball is extremely glitchy, you can even use it to soar through the sky. My biggest complaints are that it's very hard to actually pick it up, and the motion blur makes me nauseous. Otherwise, nice mood and visuals.
Really good execution and I firmly enjoy these kind of games. The music and visual style was spot on! I did have some trouble in chasing the dream and the boundry cubes dissapearing which made me question the right actions, knocking down the signs.
What a neat little experience you made! I see you didn't put audio in the ratings. Nonetheless using the right track and combining it with the right visuals requires some skill and taste. Great job my dudes.
This disapearing objects mechanics when you turn the camera have totally fucked up my brain haha, I'm so sad that the final part (I guess it's the final part but I don't want to spoil) is really glitchy when I approach a door, my fps are so down :( But well done ! It was a really good experience to me :D
Stunning. Such an amazing atmosphere. But i have found a bug, i was somehow able to fish before grabbing the fishing pole, so the fish i had fished went somewhere?
I got stuck on the fishing part, it doesn't seem to be working right, and the optimization was a bit lacking, but the atmosphere is fantastic, I would really love to see this improved on and released!
Wow!! This looks really good!! And the music is very nice and professional sounding..really adds to the atmosphere. I really like the idea you did that matched the theme too! Overall a nice experience!
This is the best game or experience I had ever on a Ludum Dare. BRAVO! I really loved this game the mood, the music the simple gameplay and puzzles oh wow this was good. This was really great. Well done.
Good atmosphere, the music combined with the graphical effects and the story provide a very good experience. Maybe the part with the monolithic structures was a bit too long (even if I understand that it serve the message here).
I had a little bit of trouble with the camera shaking uncontrollably at first, but it went away right after the first room. That said, I love this game! The atmosphere, the music, the mystery--fantastic! I hope you consider expanding this further, because I want to play more! Great work!
Thank you very much guys for the kind comments! We might release a post-jam build today with a few fixes and quality of life changes to make the experience a bit less confusing on what you are supposed to do at the start.
As said above, a bit buggy, very cryptic, but totally in love with the ambience and the neat tricks like objects disappearing. I hope the new version will be even better!
Awesome atmosphere! Everything in this game adds up to this dream-like experience. Well done! I only did not like the basketball level. Had quite a bit of trouble actually picking up the ball, kept kicking it away instead.
Wow, the graphics are really beautiful ! A real pleasure to watch ! The effects are really nice too and the sounds are perfect. This gives a really beautiful atmosphere and the game is really interesting. A real creation ! I really like this game ! Good work :D
