@Lonely Vertex Thank you for comment. I will try the fix that issue but i dont have os/X so wait a while
It's a nice game! The mood is quite good and the gameplay is pretty nice.
Some things that I noticed: The camera is way too high; you feel like a giant (especially in the beginning)
Sometimes you don't see anything even though you have a troch
But a pretty nice game overall!
I was able to run the game, but I'm afraid it ran unplayable slow. As in, < 1 FPS slow. The problem is probably on my end as I'm running Linux on an old laptop.
I like the music though!
Game looks great and has a nice atmosphere. Not a fan of the head bob but it was easy to get used to.
Yeah, I beat this game! :) I didn't think I would play it completely when I entered the giant hall with the steps on the walls, which was kind of hard. The jumping physics felt a little sluggy and frustrating. Movement felt slow, even when I discovered the sprint button. Nice graphics!
Cool atmosphere in the labyrinth, I liked the background sounds. Nice scary "changing textures"! I won't spoil the end, but it was a little cliche ;-)
Bug: You get severe graphical glitches when you enter the lake at the beginning.
Oh, and another bug: The mouse cursor stays invisible when you get back to the menu when the game is finished.
@mathiasj Thank you for comment. you are true but when i increased intensity or range of light, the game looks weird
The lighting is pretty decent, the atmosphere is getting there, but tone down on the normal mapping. Also, the player controller plays like arse. You could possibly include this by increase the speed of the jump and walk. This would also make the jumping puzzle and maze more interesting. However it did give off a knock off myst vibe. Do with that what you will.
Oh, and one more thing: I just saw your own comments for other games, and would like to encourage you to give more detailed feedback! Two or three words are not very helpful :) Thanks!
The lighting looks really good. The running could be a little faster and the head bobbing is too much. Besides that it's a nice game. :)
@blinry thats my first Ludum Dare, i am learning and i will do better in second :)
nice work with lvl design! jumping was a nightmare but the general concept and feeling is well done.
Nice atmosphere and mood!The jumping system kinda pissed e off but it's a solid entry.
I think the jumping had a couple bugs that would make me "bounce", and it was hard to see where I could actually land. Overall it was fun, but I got lost in the maze because I couldn't see the walls on the minimap well enough. Everybody else already spoke my thoughts about the head bobbing and movement. I found the lighting to be a little overwhelming. It was hard to see things far away, and close up they were too bright to see. Good job. 3d mazes are awesome.
This is the kind of game that I was hoping would be created when the theme was announced. Not only did you deliver a beautiful-looking game in the first-person exploration genre, you also managed to make the game feel quite mysterious, as if no matter how long someone would play it, there would always be some secrets left uncovered. Great job overall, I would like to see this game be developed further!
I was surprised to see game design elements of my game :D The world is really small ;) I played it through the end.
I had the feeling that the labyrinth part was slighlty too long, but before I wanted to quit you somehow managed to make the impossible true and remotivated me to finish it, by letting me see the end of the road.
The atmosphere was really well set up and the graphics were nice. I saw the same problems I had in my game with the jump n run section because of the sloppy prefab ;) nicely done with the moving platform and adding the small part that pushes you forward. The checkpoints were very helpful.
Overall a nice game experience and I would like to see this full fledged into a real big exploration game :)
As for the macOS builds, never distribute them as RAR, as rar files do not preserve unix permissions of files so your main binary becomes inert. Please distribute using e.g. zip or really any format that is not RAR.

Mini Submission FAQ
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.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Many solo participants enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
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 at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
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. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
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.
It looks awesome on screenshots and I was looking forward to play it, however, when I try to start the OS/X version, it tells: The application "mystery" can't be opened.
