Leaf Me Alone by Claw
A 'minimalist' metroidvania (if there is such a thing). We tried to focus on the feel of the world and the ambience to make it seem like a nice place to wander around.
The game focuses on exploration, with some platforming and light puzzle elements.
Noteable influences:
Proteus, Fez, Melodisle, Zelda (Wind Waker) and Final Fantasy.
Code + art: Mark Foster (@ClawhammerMark)
Audio Effects and Music: David Fenn (@autotwitch)
This was the most fun I've had jamming, even though I was quite ill throughout. I always forget how awesome Ludum Dare is, looking forward to the next one already!

I particularly enjoyed the music. It fits perfectly! :-)
And the character... well... it resemble the one from CHROMA. So this is another reason to love it! :-)
Your influences reflect in the game and I absolutely love them. You've got yourselves a new follower. I'm looking forward to more of your games
GREAT WORK!
I *think* I've completed it but the game hasn't explicitly told me that, so I'm leaving it running in the background in case there's more :)
I liked the gliding mechanic and the atmosphere was great.
I can't believe there is so much great games created during this LD, just WOAW.
My only caveat is that I thought the next goal is a little too unclear after you grab the first star, but other than that I thought the game was absolutely fantastic.
I love game mechanics and all sounds (music & sfx).
It reminds me a lot of Knytt series with its delightful atmosphere.
Wonderful atmosphere and music.

Awesome work!
Just a magnificent game and the soundtrack, the best I've heard so far.
I wouldn't be surprised if this game wins in the overall category.
Cons: A bit low fps? (have a computer that should be able to handle it)
Great sounds, great music, lovely graphics, small puzzles with the right difficulty. Just great.
Such an adorable game, I can't but love it. The graphics and sound creates a very cutesy aesthetic which just makes you wanna squeal. Simply baffling.
Excellent job! ~
No way to suicide.
No way to restart the area.
No way to get back up.
Forced to end game and lose progress.
I'm not sure the logic on how one should rate a game that is otherwise pleasant but impossible to complete due to low intelligence on the part of the creator.
I'm going to give it a 5/10.
...but seriously, I'm really glad you won, you definitely deserved it. I really loved the Fez atmosphere I got from it, heck, this game pretty much already feels professional, you should make a post-mortem and put it on Steam or something!
,mirror!
the dropbox is not working, too much traffic! too popular for dropbox!
1. The objective of the game has to do with the door that you start the game next to.
2. The spinning flowers give you momentum if you continue floating by more than one.
