Chez Angelo by EdoMiyamoto

[raw]
made by EdoMiyamoto for LD26 (COMPO)
Chez Angelo is my 2nd LD !
You play as Angelo, the night he will use the power of the last flower on earth to go back in time, but what will he do ? It's a mystery.

Controls:
Press WQSD to move, E to interact, space to jump.
For AZERTY user, you can press alt+shift to go qwerty, or edit input in the windows version.
The windows version also contain my rendering mode "level 6" for better lightning/shaders.

Known bugs:
-An odd graphical glitch appears on boxes near a window
-Sometimes you can't pick up key/item with E, try to get it from elsewhere, like an other position, from behind it, from facing it a little far etc

Source:
The source file is about 100Mo but it include ALL the project for Unity, so you can study it, edit it or improve it, i'd love to see what you can do with it !
Music sheets are not included, but it was done with lmms.
All sound effects and vocals are made with Bfxr.
All textures files were made with Photoshop.

Making this into a full game only depends on YOU ! Do YOU want me to work 2 months making the full game ?

Really cool game, I love the athmosphere although i don't seem to be able to do anything. Pressing E on light cylinders turns them off and on, on boxes it kicks them away, but I can't get them to the roof area.

I never found the key but had a blast nonetheless! It's always fun to try break stuff in interactive 3D enviroments, here's the results of my best efforts: http://imgur.com/RfU1jWk http://imgur.com/WTrm2D1

Latter was achieved by jumping on an NPC's head, moving towards back of their head (which causes them to spin in ludicrous speed) and jumping again. Wheeee!

Thirty Flights has been mentioned, but this reminded me of Space Funeral. There's a similar element of familiar gaming surroundings warped.

Very stylish... Annoying plink plonk music actually fits pretty well in helping with tension. Mouselook seems a bit rapid. Camera glitch when turn to right just after going through "curtain" at bottom of stairs. Very Very impressive overall. Excellent double step ending... and TBC !

Oh, I played your previous entry (A small village), there's a lot of improvements since back then !
A lot of characters to talk to, a lot of objects to interact with, your game is full of life ! This kind of narrative game reminds me Thirty Flights of Loving.
Had a great time, until I had to found the key. I did find it but I wasn't able to pick it up :/ Can you help ? (I first talk to the guy next to the flower, then to the guy downstairs, jump over the bar, pressed E looking at the key but nothing happened :( )
I want to finish this great game !

I played all the way to the end. It was fun to explore and try to figure out what I was supposed to do. I enjoyed the strange boxhead people. It was a bit tough to pick up the second flower, I almost didn't get it to work, but then it finally did. I liked the minimal art style.

Also had problems with the mouse input in the web player but going fullscreen fixed that.

I tried forever to pick up the key but couldn't, nonetheless I really enjoyed playing the game. Before I figured out that I could press E everyone was just silent looking at me and with the information from the posters I finally figured out who I was when I got to the roof which was kind of a cool feeling.

Great little game, loved playing it!

Very impressive. The game has a certain surreal, unsettling mood at times that was well done. Would have liked to see some more done around it, but there was a lot here for the time it took to develop. And, like others have mentioned, no matter how hard I tried I couldn't pick up that damn key.

Wow, that's a lot of 3D level design for 48 hours. Good job! There was quite a mood through the whole game, but I think the creepiest part was when everyone around the stage was staring at me with those little beady eyes.

Sometimes key items seemed a little difficult to interact with (the key, the second flower). I had to get fiddly with the camera and my position relative to the item to make it work.

I could actually pick up all the items (after some fumbling around...) and then completed the game... I think! Nice game, but for some reason I feared that it would be some kind of horror game (won't tell details of what I thought, shameon me!), so I was a bit afraid... but there was no horror so I guess I'm safe, for now... ;)

Interesting story. I was very surprised by the Mondrian curtains.

Good mood and atmosphere. It's very fun to play and discover the environment.
What a pity, I never found the key. :(
