Close Your Eyes by nonetheless
Hey there,
Close your eyes is simple game in which you have to (surprise surprise) close your eyes. You close your eyes by hitting Space. As for the Theme - you are connecting two different worlds - one is considered normal, second is a closed eyes world in which you see imagined things. The worlds differ and to succeed you have to switch between them with good timings ;).
There's tutorial, 5 levels of normal game, plus something like game plus (gameplay is easier than I expected so I've added harder version ;) )
Ok then, hope you have some fun.
Cheers!
VERSION 1.1
Fixed the hit box on finish line of level 5, now should always work :)

Good Job!
Add a small pause after death so you can see what went wrong.
Nice ambient music and graphics are neat. Just all around solid entry.
I love the visual design of this. Really fantastic, gives the game a great feel.
You also have the difficulty-curve spot on, which is very difficult to achieve for an LD-game.
However on one of the levels (last but one I think) where you kind of go down and then right, and have lava poison lava poison alternating and then a wall. There I just bounced on the wall and went back the way I came, but the game didn't register it as a win. Maybe you didn't think of that as a solution? Or just a generic bug?
Great job nonetheless! ;)
Thank for playing ;)
I love the visual, uncluttered and understandable.
This is seriously good - 5 stars all round :)
And thank you kindly for all the comments :)
Good job!
The simple art and sound only add to the clean execution you've created here while the surprisingly natural narration creates a nice counterpoint.
Great submission, both as a game and a work of art.
Excelent realize split-level mechanics.
kidding aside, great game! very clean and also the aesthetics were really great!
Anyway great entry !
Very well done.
The puzzles are challenging and that's great
Great job!
Concept is cool!
Nice work!
This is genius! Fits the theme perfectly! It's so simple and so mean!
It's pretty frustrating trying to remember where things were. Also, I feel like it good use something more, but I don't know what. Other than that, please use DontDestroyOnLoad on your music object so it doesn't reset everytime you load a level ;)
Great entry, bookmarked
Well polished and truly fun to play!
Nice simple one button controls and some tricky level designs.
There's a lot of trial and error and practice even though there's only one button to press lol. Would make a good mobile game if were to release a full version.
Well done!
Overall though, this was a good entry. Please continue this project.
Simple as possible and full of possibilities, at the end is still a switched world game but with this powerful simplicity, but the hardest timing.
The design is not only nice, it is merely perfect, i'm not fan of the difficulty of the first "normal" level who is maybe too high, but it's only tweak and playtest.
My only critic is that the first idea of only make the world disappear when you close your eyes whas so perfect that i was a little bit sad when things start to appear when you close... ;)
The game was really great.
But seriously, cool game you have there. Aesthetically pleasing and great mood.
There are just some weird things going on with the collision detection in the last levels, that make the ball go slightly in the wrong direction sometimes, which is kinda annoying.
Really great game.
I think some sound effects would be nice.
Would have loved to see more levels!
Gameplay, graphics, polish, all feels nice, fun to play, and modern (= flat & mobile friendly ;P)
If I were to suggest some improvements for the future, I'd say you should rely more on this "blindness" mechanic: I really enjoyed how in the first how I had to keep in mind the trajectory of the ball ; sadly ihis idea is lost in the latter levels, which are full of visual markers to keep track of where things are. Keeping 1 world only and building on the blindess mechanic would be a great direction to try.
I hope to see more of this!
Everything else was really well made.
good job!
Amazing!

It's just a cute little theme, and for these kinds of things, when the UI is minimalist, you can't have many bugs and this one didn't have many.
I write posts on DonationCoder.com, and I try to rate games to my own (very subjective) difficulty scale. I think this did a decent job of training and easy early levels, then about 2nd before the end of the slow levels and def the fast levels, it jumped a notch in difficulty.
But nice concept, something I haven't seen before.
