I love puzzle games, and this is a very nice one. World looks great, and has a great vibe. I love those flying snakes(?). Only thing that this game needs is story. Player is thrown into this magical word, but he\/she has no idea why. It would be great to be able to find peaces of lore in the game."},{"author_name":"local minimum","author_uid":"24765","time":"Dec 16, 2015 @ 6:18pm","epoch":1450289580,"text":"Nice game with generally interesting puzzles.

Anyhow, I really enjoyed the visuals and walking around. The use of the theme was really smart too. I have some issues with the obstacles and puzzles though. I pretty quickly figured out how to deal with the three elevator puzzle, but it took me a jolly long time of trial and error to actually get the levels right enough so I could get up. It might not be the puzzle, but that the controls need more work. Or the elevators need to give some feedback for when they are correctly adjusted (like one push on a button elevates to a certain level, not progressively). The same controls-issue I had with the clouds. It was hard to know exactly where you were standing, hard to stay on the cloud. Especially when it turned (which was really fast and without warning). So after attempting 5-10 times, I gave up. Which was a pity, because I really wanted to know how the game would end. For the clouds, to help stay on them while turning it may be better to use an AnimationCurve for the lateral positioning so it's easy to make a soft turn. To me, a game like yours is more about experiencing than being challenged by the puzzles and obstacles &amp; in this case they got a bit in the way of the fun for me. In general though, a very good game indeed."},{"author_name":"Wayward","author_uid":"44888","time":"Dec 18, 2015 @ 5:01pm","epoch":1450457760,"text":"Great job!\r<br\/>First i wondered how this fits any theme, but then i noticed something in\r<br\/>the world, and at the i figured you also got the second theme^^\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Too bad you can't ride those black snake\/fish thingies, would have been awesome^^"},{"author_name":"SeaLeft Studios","author_uid":"64693","time":"Dec 18, 2015 @ 5:05pm","epoch":1450458000,"text":"Bit of a different take on the two buttons theme.

We haven't done any optimization, so rendering that many particles could be a bit excessive for lower end hardware.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also the moving after key release might be caused by this. I haven't noticed it in any of the builds.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>@Coomzy:\r<br\/>I agree, the puzzles could have been made more interesting.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Not explaining the game mechanics is intentional, but in a complete game there would probably be a bit of a backstory. Then you'd be dropped into the world having at least some vague understanding of what you're supposed to work towards.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>@local minimum:\r<br\/>Again sorry you had such a hard time with the cloud puzzle. I think you may have made it harder for yourself than it needs to be though. It should require no jumping skills! I've put the hint above in case it's useful for some people.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I can't blame you for giving up though, it's a bit obscure.
