Game Description
Nothing makes sense, and I have a trumpet
How does your game tie into the theme?
The theme is dreams, and because dreams often seem wierd and irrational while they happen, that's what this game is. Nothing follows a consistent idea, aside from the art style, and it's all complete nonsense.

Unique submission! I'm positively surprised how a simple animated background (the endless swirl) can effect the atmosphere of the whole game.
Quite unique and weird, I think it is quite difficult to not get caught by whatever chases you after a while. I really like how the world graphics gets warped. The music is nice, too.
It's fun and original! But I'm not sure if something's supposed to happen after the weird noise screen (I was waiting for a while and nothing happened).
Trust me, there’s more
I saw that there was a hidden link! but I admit that the transition being long, I did not want to make the effort to restart and screen at the right time.
That’s not a link…
Maybe base64 to decode? I will try again when I finish all the games
I don’t want to waste your time, that thing you saw said
--secret=gvprtskvni.very interesting and cool screen bending effects! My browser was very lagged by it though, but that might be cus i have a bunch of tabs open... anyway when the lag passed it played fine again! The e key to interact with WASD felt a little awkward though, like the keys are too close together for comfort. But overall it was a really unique and interesting experience, nice work.
I was expecting a screamer, thank god it didn't occur. I didn't ended it :( The mechanic of the left side chasing you was not very clear for me. Good athmosphere tho.
I’m not a complete devil, but I’m surprised you played through the minigame for the full 10 minutes for the ending.
Cool submission! Really nice shader work you’ve got going here. :)
The “fog” (?) killed me a few times but after getting a little further I was able to fall down a hole…then I was just greeted by white static for a very long time. Was something supposed to happen there or was that just one of the endings?
Cool game, especially for a first-time GWJer! I think the static bit following you should have been moved back a little ways early on so it's easier to figure out what has to be done: when vision is impaired even a tiny bit by the shaders, it's hard to see what's coming and how to deal with it in time before that thing overtakes you. But never the less a very interesting mechanic and game! I had fun with it.
