Developer

Thank you!!

Best looking game I've played in the jam! The player is so elegantly animated that I enjoyed just flying around. Great music, sounds, and stunning visuals. Five stars across the board!

Developer

Thank you so much !! :D

I loved this one!  The atmosphere and the art is amazing not to mention the music that went along with it. Great combination. Good job.

// Spoiler alert

The ending was so hearthwarming  unlike my game hahaha

Developer

Thank you! So glad you liked it :D

Yeah haha, happy ending vs sad ending

This game is seriously moving, so I don't want to spoil anything, but great job on making such a wonderful game!

Developer

Thank you! I'm happy it moved you :)

Gave this 5 stars for everything. 

Beautiful game, from the music to the art to the unbelievable animation.

If you were to expand on this in the future, I'd be the first to play.

This was awesome.

Developer

Wow thanks !! :)

This might be an idea haha!

Cheers

This is a seriously beautiful game not much in game play but the story animations and art more than makes up for it. The music was beautiful and the damaged sound effects were perfect and one with the music.

Really well done.

Developer

This was a game jam. Who asked you to make people cry?!?!?!? I loved it. I just... I don't have words. It's beautiful. I would be sharing this game with my friends. This was just more than an amazing experience. The music in the background made everything much much better. Don't even get me started about the animation, it was so smooth. It was like a painting just came to life. Thank you for this amazing experience! This game deserves a perfect rating.

Please take some time to play and rate my games as well. Thanks!!

Developer

Wow .. Thank you :)) It really means a lot <3

I'll definitely check out your game!

Such a beautifully animated game! The music is so wonderful and create this  amazing calming experience. I had such a lovely time playing this. Fantastic job!

Thank you so much ! <3

This game is so well animated. I love the fact that the damage sound is an off note. I'm still trying to figure out how you did that effect where the sky changes color. Wonderful job.

Developer

Thank you ! :) I'm so happy you liked it ^^

The color change in a simple transition shader, the same as for a circular in-out black screen when you go through a door in many games.


Then I just give this shader a texture that's made with a watercolor brush, and ta-da ! :D As simple as that

Submitted

Great game! Really beautiful, love the art and the animation. It kept me going till the end.

Developer

Thank you ! <3

Submitted

wonderful. really loved*100 it.

I could feel the game.

Developer

Thanks ! :)

Submitted

Wow, loved this game! The art and music were both great. I loved the watercolor look and the piano sounds when getting hit.  The flying animations were super fluid. The transitions when you collected sun orbs were beautiful. Overall a stellar entry!

Developer

Thank you so much ! <3 It means a lot :) So glad you liked it

Submitted

The artstyle is so nice, and having the sound when you take damage be a paino just like the music was an insanely good touch. Very well made game!

Developer

Thanks ! :)

Submitted

I didn't though a Game Jam entry could make me feel real emotions. It is a beautiful game, the visuals and the music are outstanding. The only thing I miss is the lack of sound effects and (unless it was made on purpose) I felt it lacks some challenge, like being penalized for being damaged. Anyway, beautiful game!

Developer

That was my personnal goal ! Being able to convey real emotions with a minimal tool set :)

I'm SO happy you liked it and felt it :)

Cheers!

Awesome game!

Everything is perfect : graphics, music, sounds, the character controls etc.

The only problem is the menu UI that dont scale with screen size (and goes outside of my screen). But it didn't affect the game so it's not a big deal.

I will follow your next creations, I loved Zigloton too!

Developer

Thank you so much ! :)) I'm so happy you enjoyed it !

 I'll try to check where that bug could be coming from ..

Submitted

Wow! The visuals are incredible! I Love the oil paint transitions and the handmade style animations! The ending is sublime & the music and sound is so on point! Love it!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much ! I'm incredibly happy to hear you like it, especially coming from you :)
