Panorama by Lyje

[raw]
made by Lyje for LD31 (COMPO)
PANORAMA is a minimal, omnivisual Proteus-em-up.

The entire island is always in view of your 360 degree vision. Calming, contemplative, mind-bending.

TIP: For extra trippyness, walk backwards :)

Known issues:
Poor optimisation.
360 camera only works properly on 16:9 and 16:10 aspect ratios.
Pressing escape the first time may hang for a few seconds - if in doubt, quit using ALT-F4, CMD-Q or similar.

This is a really awesome concept and really well executed, not sure if I'd cool it a game, but your art work is amazing.

Nifty. Took me a while to get the hang of the 360-degree view, but I did at least restore my faith in democracy.

I'm always a fan of low poly work, looks awesome.

Nice! Love the interpretation of the theme. Would love to see it used alongside some gameplay.

I really liked the graphics and the sound! Gameplay is missing a bit though

Camera was cool. Like the low-poly graphics, weather particle effect were pleasant. Liked the horizon

I enjoyed your game it's really remind my playing experiences with proteus. Im happy to downloaded your game I'll probably play it again. The 360 view is a really nice concept and impressive. Excellent low-poly graphics, except the flowers and the snowman .. in my opinion theres are too different from the environment. Good job

It feels very dizzy because of the 360 degree camera. Maybe it will be like the way we perceive the world if we have eyes on our back...?
Nevertheless, it is an awesome concept!

That panorama rendering could use a few more slices, but I guess it fits quite nicely with the low-poly art this way.
Reminds me a bit of a more complicated concept I have, which would actually bend the geometry before rendering... Nice to see something similar working quite well!
