I love the concept! The maze is a little hard to navigate though, very easy to get lost.
Great atmosphere and music! I found the flowing water section and was intrigued but then I got too dizzy before I could find the next story bit.
Super cute. Gorgeous pixel graphics and a nice idea.
Puzzling was hard. Did not reach the end.
The camera perspective makes me a bit ill. Perhaps because of the "near walls" or not being able to look up and down.
Loved the hum of the violins and the color scheme is relaxing and lovely. It was a treat to find the pouring water and the eerie audio to contrast the constant string of red and gold walls. Stopped after that.
Managed to find four of the water areas, but then I ended up too claustrophobic. Getting stuck on the walls and the tight corridors just got to me, I don't think I've ever had that happen to me on a game before. The audio was very well done though, and you really setup a great atmosphere.
Got stuck pretty quickly... but there's such a terrific atmosphear. Great job!
Great game! reminde me the "cube" film, in more soft. great atmosphere!
Amazing mood. The water reminded me of Lucas Arts games from long ago.
I couldn't find anything after the first water part though.
Music works really well at setting the mood but wondered around for awhile and couldn't figure out what to do.
Aha! Now that's a tricky little concept there. Nice aesthetics (feels a bit DOS circa early 90s, with AdLib). Really nice, well done!
Maybe the walls are pretty close, it's a bit confusing but anyway i'm not good with maze games, good job :).
Really amazing mood and atmosphere, but I couldn't find my way past the first water area.
Really cool concept, I really enjoy the pixel art and story aspect.
I think the game would be much more fun and easier if each square on the map was smaller. Also you walk/run way too fast and get stuck in walls constantly
Very moody. Felt increasingly claustrophobic =/ Both in a good and bad way. Actually it started feeling like a horror game where you expect something to happen constantly and it didn't go away immediately when I stopped playing. Can't explain why. Maybe the title reminded me of Justine (the Amnesia dlc thing).
Graphics are beautiful, music is very nice but also unnerving after a while.
Gameplay wise, pretty confusing. No idea where to go or what shifting the map around did. So I wandered around randomly for a while.. Found the first water thing, no idea how, then nothing more after that.
Also, mouselook speed could be a little lower. And not being able to look up/down probably doesn't help the feeling of being locked in.
Graphics and mood: 5/5.
You created a great mood here. I love the art and the subtle glows. I unfortunately could not complete it because I was feeling claustrophobic, but I think people who like mazes will enjoy this.
Nice graphics, I loved the gold/pink combo and the water! I didn't end up playing too long because I ended up getting a bit dizzy ~ maybe slower camera panning/walking would have helped? Definitely a pretty maze game though!
Beautiful art and sound. However, I didn't understand how to read or use the map. I'm guessing that may have helped me navigate the maze.
Nice graphics. I got lost in the labyrint and did't know what to do:(
What a pity I suffered from motion sickness, I wasn't able to find all the keys.
But I appreciated the small tiles which accentuate the closed space feeling. I had some troubles with the moves friction, I wasn't able to easily go around the labyrinth, but it's a detail.
The atmosphere is really great, and I will give another try, I want to know what's happening there.
Confusion mixed with an ill feeling, maybe larger corridors and a few more land marks to stop that. Other than that though, good job! Really liked the audio and graphics.
Boring maze with music (very loud notes that are sustained for ~30 seconds each). A puzzle that's not explained at all. Wonky, overtly sensitive mouse controls. No thanks.
Enjoyed this! Especially the atmosphere. Wish there had been a bit more variety so I wouldn't keep going around in circles, though.
mechanics were a little strange, good idea, maze got very confusing very fast
Felt claustrophobic in a good, intentional, moody sort of way. The art/visual effects are beautiful, and the music fits perfectly. Only able to find one key though :(
The music fit really well with the game. Really like the 3D pixel art style, it is a nice touch.
Really moody game, neat graphics, but it's way too easy to get lost in this maze.
Nice art and audio and effort for 48 hours. Echo most above comments. It's fundamentally not fun to be lost in a maze. I wasn't sure how the map/shifting blocks worked. I think it moved the blue walls in the map and opened up other areas? I found two fountains and called it quits, though. Wanted to see more.
Good music and graphics. Got lost before I could find whats wrong with Kate lol
I love the look and style, and I like the idea you were going for with the map. The maze was very hard to navigate, though. The controls were a bit sticky too when moving against walls.
The atmosphere you create with this game walls combined with the music is awesome! Nice job! Nice pixelart!
My name is Kate so I was trying to figure out how it knew my name for a few seconds while it loaded (long day). :-)
Interesting concept, I'm not good at maze games, but I loved the graphics and the relaxing atmosphere. The map was well done too.
Difficult game, nice graphics and atmosphere. My team actually also made a maze game, but top-down. :) (Shameless auto-promo)
Very nice atmosphere! The controls are a bit too fast (especially the mouse view), though.
To be honest I gave up after a few minutes, wandering around in the maze. I managed to find the first 2 elements, but I couldn't find what to do after that.
I didn't manage to finish the game, found 7 keys and then got comletely stuck, o I didn't see the ending, nevertheless It has a very intriging concept and the atmosphere is very well done.
I have mainly 2 problems with the game which are, the camera being too zoomed in, and it moving so fast, I get dizzy realy quikly and after a while I was just desperate to find the last key because I wasn't feeling so well.
Interesting maze. Well done. I included it in part 11 of my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series :) http://youtu.be/1LqxxVg5Vuk
The mouse sensitivity is too high, I can't really play without going sick ;) but I like the graphics and the mood
nice and clean. I really enjoyed the music. A great retro feel all around!
The atmosphere was quite good but I couldn't find what I was supposed to do apart from wander around collecting puzzle pieces. I found two of them but the others were elusive. Some kind of stronger hints would be appreciated. Good game nonetheless.
I love the art and music, but there wasn't enough direction to know what to do. The mouse sensitivity was high so I was constantly bumping into walls.
Nice game for a 48 hour game. The mouse sensitivity was really high which made it quite hard to play, otherwise I would probably played some more to find all the keys.
Interesting...I didn't think I would ever say this, but the run speed was way too fast - making it easy to miss "exits"...
Liked the music. Maze was way to confusing. Not sure how close I came to intended gameplay, as no idea what the game play was.

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.
Good game, especialy this labyrinth.
