Teapot got my only complaint, basically. The puzzling reminded me a lot of Half-Life/HL2 puzzling, which is fine, but not having fine control made it a little fiddly. The art/ambient track/atmosphere was very good, however!

The graphics in this game is amazing, and the music complements it fairly well.

Controlling the blocks/cubes/etc felt a bit frustrating at times, perhaps allowing the player to change the distance to these object and allowing rotating it in all axes (Garry's Mod style I guess) would help with that.

That's the only complaint though, amazing job!

Developer

agreed! our next step will probably be focused toward refining the contols of the objects, thank you for the feedback!

Amazing game, good idea and concept, very nice ambiance! The game in general is fun! Only some feedbacks the camera in soul mode sometimes gets too close to the character which gets in the way a little and the platform elements got a little annoying sometimes very precise specific jumps. Overall great game!

Thanks for the feedback :)

Great look, though physics could be fine-tuned more and personally I would go for a less bright/noisy selection shader. Underrated!

Developer

Hard agree, A bright selection shader while the environment is already so bright is not the ''brightest'' idea (pun intended)

I can't believe this only has 12 ratings. Will spread the word, this game is amazing and deserves a fair shot at top 100!

Very pretty game, and interesting mechanics that reminded me in part of Portal, but the main mechanic is also very unique. Looks good, plays well, lots of fun :)

This one needs more attention! What a beautifully made game. I loved the concept of body and soul working together and the 3d environment looks wonderful. Congats!
