A lot of this "zen" type games showing up, I like it! :) This one looks like flying around in some sort of abstract painting , that's the first time I ever did that :p
I'm not sure if I can actually win in this game... But you know what? I don't really care, I feel relaxed after playing :D Good job.
you can win! get 12 little blue triangles to the big blue triangle and enter another dimension(so to speak)
Not sure if I found the way, but I certainly enjoyed my time there :) Very nice environment.
This is gorgeous. I struggled a bit to find all the blue triangles though - that part felt a little frustrating towards the end. Perhaps some kind of subtle directional hints would have helped.
This game is now one of my favorites, great feeling, music helps a lot, physics are nice, Great Job! Hope there were more levels, I wanted to play more this game!
And surprised when I watched the timelapse and you used the same tools as me (including fruity loops and cinema 4d :OOO)
That's really strange game and I don't know what I think about it. Graphics are nice, music is strange. Anyway, I won by collecting some triangles, when I found I can escape ship while hodling space.
Took me a while to get what I was supposed to do while it should have been obvious (I somehow instantly forgot the triangle-thingy from the start) but I had great fun figuring it out (again) while floating around. The end was a bit unspectactular but overall a well done game. Very relaxing atmosphere and sound.
Interesting little game. Kind of unsure what i was supposed to be doing for most of it.
It was nice learning what to do while playing. Thanks for the game! :)
Nice artstyle and I liked trying to figure out what the goal was when I started playing.
That was great, really enjoyable to play. Just nice to float around and slowly figure out what to do.
Very nice! Great ambience and a world you can interact with.
Tom, you did great on this game. One of the best of the bunch. Understanding of the "objective" would be better although that kinda defeats the purpose now doesn't it
Very great atmosphere you got going, wasnt sure what i was doing but i was very chilled doing it :)
I really love the graphical style you used. It's very slick and smooth. I'm not sure what I was doing, but I was enjoying it! :)
Once you discover what you have to do, it's pretty short... But I really like the "discovering what you have to do" part :)
This is one of those rare games where it would have been less enjoyable if there were a tutorial, imo.
I quite liked this, the abstract microbial world was a lot of fun to explore, and collecting the triangles felt sufficiently challenging with all physics in the game. You could add some competition between the creatures, maybe they could steal your triangles, but it might ruin the zen abstraction. Technically the controls could be a little tighter and responsive, but thats a minor crit. Nice work ^_^
Fun, it was cool that it took me a minute to figure things out. I enjoyed exploring the world you created
I don't know what I was doing, but I wanted to keep doing it!
I have no idea what I was doing, but I loved doing it! Great vibe
I really like the graphics and the mood of the game - but I just don't see any point to it - good effort
I didn't "get it" when I played but it was pleasant to play with!
Awesome mood and really cool experience. Loved to play with my little space aquatic ship. I don't get the link with the theme though? Can you tell us :) ? Anyway, great entry!
@Simon thanks! The theme was "beneath the surface" so i made the control the mechanic around that. you manipulate your ships from within. its also intentional that you cant quite tell if its underwater, in outer space or if its microscopic. im alright with people not knowing whats going on or even if it can be completed.
I love this game, very very cool idea indeed with the microbial setting and the semi-permeability :)

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Love the style of the art and music. Nice take on flOw.
