In what way does your game fit the theme?
My game talks about Elements.
At the start you just can control Water, but advancing in the game you unlock all the elements like Fire, Earth and Air. Without using each of them you can't beat the darkness and advance in the game.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I coded the game all by myself, main characters art is made by myself.
Lights are made by myself.
For the environment art I used one free asset found on the asset store.
Voices are made by myself and music is taken on www.bensound.com

I love the visual, I like how u used the theme with the different elements, great work :)

Developer

I am glad you liked it man!!

The visuals are STUNNING. The music is BEAUTIFUL. They fit the game so so well and the art is just mesmerizing to stare at, especially with the light effects you made! The voices are cute and really helped me figure out what to do. The game felt very much like a lovely interactive storybook.

I really wish there were more mechanics to the game, maybe a specific ability for a specific obstacle in the forest, or something about light. The characters being elements is not really that relevant to the game, as the goal is to defeat darkness, so adding a light ability corresponding to each element I think would be better. As mentioned by others, a way for the other elements to follow the element you control would really help the game feel more fun and make the game more relevant to the theme(Instead of moving together, you only move as one in this game). Other than that, the game is really impressive for a jam game and if you ever decide on continuing this game after the end of the jam, I would love to see it, even if it's just a short polished beautiful game!

Hey I am so glad you hear feedbacks like this. I am happy you enjoyed the game, and I like the fact that you made constructive critics!
Since some of you guys are saying that you'd like to watch a further development of this game I am seriously taking it into consideration!
Thanks from heart

This one is really beautiful with nice story and audio. Very Well done!

I would add the possibility to move all elements together insted of each one seperately.

I was really impressed by the graphics and music. 

Developer

I am glad you liked the things I focused on. Sure I have to improve the gameplay or it can get kinda boring! Thanks for the feedback!

Hey really thanks for the feedback! I am glad you like it! Anyway your game graphics looks kinda insane, I'll play it ASAP as soon as I am done with work!

Submitted

Oh I loved it, it was very immersive! 

Sounds great, thankyou!

Wow, what an incredibly gorgeous game! Even though it used pre made assets, I feel like you really elevated them to new levels with all of your post-processing and light effects! Each of the elements having a different voice was a nice touch too.

The gameplay is quite tedious in this game, I wish you could teleport the elements to each other somehow since it is annoying finding an element you don't match and having to bring the other element all the way over, and also backtrack with the original element. But this entry seemed a lot more focused on storytelling and visuals, and in that it succeeded, so good job!

Developer

I am so glad that you got the point of the game! I focused almost 90% on the visuals and the storytelling so I am quite happy with your feedback! Plus I feel that tedious gameplay you talk about, but I didn't know how to fix that, I thought about introducing a button to move all the elements together but that was not the right solution. I think with the idea of the teleport you gave me a huge idea! Really thanks!

Submitted

glad I could help spark an idea!

I loved like... everything about the game! I do have one nitpick, though, and it is that the game is pretty short and I would really like to see a greater storytelling. When I saw the cover of the game, my expectations went way up, and I wasn`t disappointed, I was actually surprised! Yeah, this game is charming in a lot of ways, and is really heart warming, too. Thank you for this amazing piece of little story! Great job!

Developer(+1)

Oh Man this kind of feedbacks make my day! You make me feel so happy really a special thank from my heart... Maybe I can keep developing this game and push it further, after all this was just a prototype made in 7 days! If many people will be interested I will take it into consideration

Submitted

Ooh, I think I would love to see a full release of that. Gret job, really!

The visuals and atmospheric lighting are great! The narration and voice acting is phenomenal also. 

Feel free to check out our game too :D

Thanks.

Thanks for participatin, the graphic of the game is very nice, but the game is kinda boring. But it is one of the games which I finished

Submitted(+1)

Amazing visuals! I love the lighting and the atmosphere, excellent work! Hopefully you have some time to check out my game too!

Submitted(+1)

A beautiful game, reminiscent of Ori in atmosphere.

Developer

I am glad you think so! That game really inspired me... thanks so much really!

Submitted(+1)

Cool graphic.

Developer

I am glad you appreciated it!

Nice game it has wonderful atmosphere around it - music and graphics. Kinda cute voices, but adding some subtitles , texts would be nice. Whole gameplay is pretty simple and relaxing, but having to move every element on their own is sometimes annoying. I am not sure how you could make it better, maybe by being able to move to few near by clicking some button.  

overall game is really nice and relaxing good job :3

Dont forget to check mine later please :3

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

I am glad that you enjoyed the atmosphere imI created... it has been my main focus! Anyway I agree with you something to avoid the make the same path with every player should be done! Also I will play your game for sure and really thanks for the feedback

Submitted(+1)

Had a very hard time with the controls are they were really weird. I couldn't get the first symbol thing to get past the darkness. Looks nice though!

Developer

I am sorry that you had a bad experience with the movements! but can you be more specific what has been the problem? The gameplay it is so simple... anyway so glad you liked it anyway ! Thank you

Submitted

The character never stops moving. He's always moving towards the top of the screen so it's a battle to get it to go where I want.

Cool graphics. It's a fun idea if developed further

Developer(+1)

Well I am glad to hear that.. I could think about developing it at its best!

Submitted

Looks like you and I are very interested in surreal and glowing plant life, a really nice game! It reminds of the movie Mune: Guardian of the Moon

Developer

You got the point man! I am going to look at your game for sure!

Submitted(+1)

The graphics are gorgeous.

The narration is well made too, especially as there are very rarelly narrative games with voices in jams.

Being able to move all four characters at once would have been great. I dont really see the point of having to do 4 times the same path.

Developer

hey man I am so glad you liked the graphics and narration... it has been my main focus.

On the other side I agree with you I should make something to avoid the same path over and over with all 4 characters

Submitted(+1)

While the gameplay itself is pretty fun, the graphics are stunning! I like how the lighting changes depending on nearby elements

Developer

thanks for the feedback man! I wanted to have a really simple gameplay but make something magic with the environment :)

Very amazing game! I really like the story and the gameplay!
