This is the first game I did solo! I've went through a lot of issues but it was an interesting experience. I will update the game until I complete all the mechanics properly after the LD. I would love to hear what you think about my idea. Sadly it is not complete but I decided to publish anyway because it is my first solo game.

Here's the concept:

The machine that transferred the soul barrels to the right portals is broken and the portals have become unstable! You have been employed to transfer the barrels before the time runs out!

To play the game you use the WASD keys to move around, space to sprint and F to pick up the objects(I didn't manage to make it work).
Genres: action
Tools: Unity

It's a bit difficult to judge a game that is not finished but I will give it my best shot. I liked the music, it fits the mood you were trying to go for, keep practicing and your music will be through the roof. The art was not great, but it's programmer art, and has its own charm. In terms of gameplay, the concept sounds fun, but without a proper implementation it can't really be judged properly. The gameplay it appears you were going for would be a bit boring and the time limit was a bit restrictive and it took a bit of messing around to figure out how to replenish time (next time, try imposing a less strict time limit on beginning levels and making it harder as time goes on). Good concept for a game, good luck with final implementation!

As I said above, unfortunately it's hard to give good feedback without all the controls working. I would like to say that I liked the concept that you have very little time to make the moves, which gives a certain degree of urgency to the game. I hope you can finish it, be sure to tag me when the game is available!
