The Dead rest Beneath Us by flrn
This is a game about the ones we bury beneath the surface.
Click on the character in need and drag, to move them away from the dangers.
This is my first submission for Ludum Dare, I hope everything goes well and that I'm not doing anything wrong!
EDIT: I changed the sentence at the end so it's a little clearer what is going on here as it seemed to leave people puzzled... This way I hope peeps will get it quicker! Thanks for playing & rating!
I also haven't had the chance to test either the Windows or the Linux builds, I hope everything works fine there.

Sad thing is I could not save any of them. May be that's what the creator wants I guess :)
I though I finally saved someone, and he gets run over by another train :(
Really cool, atmospheric game!
I'm not making fun of the game by any means; I just have a very grim sense of humor. The train scene? Hilarious. Thank you for making this.
Normally Humour and Mood are kind of mutually exclusive, but this manages both.
Really fantastic work.
But nice game ^^ Good use of theme and graphics is very nice.
I like the skull
Not it Ludum Dare, in my entire life.
Thank you for ruining my day.
You'll still get a bunch o' stars from me anyway.
Great job!

but i really enjoyed!
I dont know if i was playing the right way but i couldnt save any of them.
Very frustrating
The drawback is that it's not really "fun" nor is it meant to be I suppose...Although I did think of an achievements like "do a flip" for the underwater guy.
Also since you were going so much for mood I feel like sound fx/sound design could really have really pushed it even further. The music worked ok, but it could have been a little more depressing/moody. So little time though!
I always like seeing experimental games in LD because they're more original (or at least try to be).
Oh and nice graphics :)
If you have unity pro you should experiment with camera effects like bloom, vignette or any of them.
