I really liked the visual style and the swipe mechanism was very cool.

Wow, that was weird! I like the 3D objects. I had trouble aiming the grab though, it seems to go into another direction than my swipe.

Very abstract and kind of cool.
Controls were not great, though.

Love the visuals, especially those dragons. Very unique! Controls were a little rough on a keyboard/mouse, but I bet it could be really cool on mobile!

I have to admit this confused the shit out of me :P But it did give me points, and that was delightful :)

I needed some time to figure out what to do, but than it was really fun. The style of your creature is really cool. And really awesome that you integrated your control style into your main menu.

Very odd game, left me confused as to where I was or what was happening most of the time. I still managed to get down pretty far though. I think. Loved the graphics!

Trippy! Didn't have a touchscreen at hand to play it properly, but still had fun once I got a handle on the controls. Nice models.

Sweet graphics. I was kinda confused at the title screen and kept going to the credits, but once I got in I had fun!

The music and graphics are cool, but I had a ton of trouble controlling anything.

Kinda trippy :) I was not always sure what was going on (as others have mentioned). For me I was quite confused as some things seemed to be off my z axis and I could not grab for an extended period of time. Nice mood and style though.
