Temple of Ra by Split82

[raw]
made by Split82 for LD29 (COMPO)
This time it was quite hard, because I spent 6 hours learning how to create proper models in Blender and another 6 hours on UI which I didn't like and deleted it. Otherwise I think I put almost everything I wanted ;)

Post Compo version is almost identical to normal one. I just made few performance optimisations.

Engine: Unity 3D
Code: C#
Models: Blender
Textures: Photoshop
Audio: Logic Pro
Web Unity http://templeofra.hyperbolicmagnetism.com/

Very very well done!
The gameplay mechanics were clever, the graphics good, the level design great. I loved the ambient sounds! It created a great atmosphere.

Impressive that this was done in 48 hours. ;)

Great atmosphere, I'll play any game where I can walk around a dark temple. Simple but satisfying puzzle premise.

Love the gameplay, level design is good, graphics are great. What more is there to say.

Very hard to believe it could be this polished after 48hrs.

Very well done :)

This game was absolutely fantastic. Simple puzzles, but completely solid mechanics and a really nice style. I'd recommend disabling the jump though, because I accidentally got myself stuck with it and had to glitch my way through a pillar to get out

Simply wonderful! This is pro work, and I enjoyed playing every minute of it. I'd love to see a post-compo version with more levels.

I enjoyed this, and I think it's a great game for a 48 hour event. But the puzzle doesn't get any more clever that 'what is the most complicated way I could arrange these objects', rather than anything truly puzzling. Curious to see if you continue with this!

Very, very nice!
Kept me captivated all the way till the satisfying end. Mechanics are easy to grasp, love the in-game instructions, and gets harder along the way, while staying approachable. Good work!

Very cool mechanic although in Chrome under Win7 I am having a lot of trouble aiming the light beams accurately because they move so fast.

@BallpointPress - the rotation is always + or - 45 degrees. No need for precise rotation. Or is it something different?

Attention to details... nom, this earns you a lot of points <3 I really loved how the tables shook when you pushed them the wrong way. Really nice!

I've seen many many versions of this puzzle before (I just played basically the same puzzle in Skyrim recently) but this is beautifully produced and art directed with a wonderful ambient soundtrack. Great level design too.

Really nice for a compo entry! The art looks good, the sounds are great, the mood is pretty fitting. Really nicely polished. Good job on puzzle elements too because I know how hard they can sometimes be to create. Overall really nice job!

The game is pretty well made and pretty, but some of the pieces are hard to see when they aren't illuminated.

This game has awesome athmosphere. It's a pity that puzzles too easy for me...

Quite good for a game made in 48 hours, it looks and feels very polished. I wonder how you made the sound effects, because the sound familiar. More levels would be nice, work your way up to the surface.

29. Apr 2014 · 17:58 UTC
Awesome game! Amazing that you could do all this in 48 hours. It is extremely well polished, and the graphics are great! A post compo version with a good story and more levels, could make it far ;-)

The mood is excellent as it really grabbed me and persuaded me that I'm not in my room anymore and telling me that I'm in this underground and the only way out is by solving the light ray puzzle. The graphics are great as well. I like this kind of games and this one is really well done.

This was pretty cool, I really liked the look of it, the sound, the atmosphere, the mechanics, and the controls. In fact, basically everything was great! The only problem was I ran into a bug where one of the crystals just refused to transmit the light it was receiving, so I couldn't progress further :/

Every atmospheric and amazing visuals. Very solid puzzle game too. Great design and even little things such as the wobbling animation when you try to push something off-track show the amount of polish that went into this.

I beat the game and I liked it. I think this is a top 5 entry.
It has too much quality for a compo game, good job.
I liked all the small details like the footstep sounds and floating text for the instructions.

Why no PC version? I would've like to play it full screen.

Fantastic example of the ol' light/mirror puzzle. Assets perfect and well polished for the time given, controls simple and well explained with good feedback and audio on the reflectors. Puzzles well implemented with the 2 different types of reflector. Overall style very good - Easily one of the best games of the competition. :D

Solid puzzler, good use of unity's pro tools, everything ran smooth and played nicely. You didn't overdo it but you did get the most out of the mechanics you implemented. All around solid game.

Man, instead of being a simple "game beneath the surface", the mechanic you created from that... it's just awesome!
I really liked it!

Wow, pretty amazing! It's compelling right from the start, which is a mean feat for such a short time. An export for Windows or OS X would be really nice, since I had problems with the web player losing mouse focus and it would be nice to play this full screen.

Great puzzle-game with sweet graphics! I would like to see this kind of puzzles into a bigger game like Legend Of Grimrock.
