Bliss by fakeyou

[raw]
made by fakeyou for LD26 (COMPO)
Bliss by Andre Nanninga.

Bliss is minimalist game about enjoying the waves of the ocean.

In reality I ran out of time and wasn't able to work in a goal or win scenario. Now it's just a simulation of blissful sailing which turned out quite nice in itself.

I made this with THREE.js and javascript.

The water and the model are a cool style. Very fitting.

great simulation, love the graphics

please use that for some game you might do in the future - I'd love to play it :)

Maybe a multiplayer canon ship deathmatch ?

Very cool, although there isn't really a goal or anything

The water simulation is great with a really appealing art style. Would have loved to play a game scenario built on this. Nicely done!

i liked the feel of sailing =). it crashed when i hit the edge of the world though =(. would like to see this game with the same basic sailing and a larger world.

It was very enjoyable to just sail around.

I would have also liked a bigger sea to roam around in, maybe some kid of infinite procedural generation deal?

Not really a game, but the base mechanics have potential for something.

Very cool-looking, and it's really fun to drive the boat around. I wish there were more game to it - I think it's a great start. The water effects, in particular, are great.

Can't download the source for this, I get a 404 error.

It's pretty. A shame it never became something more than an experiment.

The feel of the boat on the waves is fantastic. I wish there was some boundless ocean I could sail through.

First thing I did was try to get myself stuck on an island. I WIN! :D (can still move though somehow)
Waves look really cool!
