Spacescape - KilledByAPixel - 48 Hour Competition Entry
Windows | Enhanced Post-Compo | YouTube (Spoilers) | Source
You are living on a spaceship, suddenly it is under attack. Enemies are boarding and blowing the place up. Get to an escape pod before it self destructs!
WASD - movement, jump and crouch.
Left mouse button - shoots
Alt+Enter - toggle fullscreen (recommended)
NOTE: You may need to update DirectX to play my game! Do this if you get a missing DLL message when you run it.
I also put a link to an enhanced post-deadline version with some bug fixes and gameplay tweaks for non-judges.

Very good and I'm not saying it just because I've used similar style of art and planned to use sounds like you :D
Heartbeating is brilliant :D
I was pleasantly surprised by this one. You managed to do something with your level design that is rare and awesome: you made me feel like I was just wandering around/exploring, yet I end up finding the goal without backtracking. Great work.
So good! The art style fit through and through, and I loved the audio.
I liked that you showed the ship you escaped from at you were sent down in the pod.
I wasn't sure that the pods were escape pods at the start, as it felt like I had missed some content in the level. I wasn't sure that I had beaten it already.

Absolutely beautiful game. I adored it from start to finish. There are so many little graphical and audial details that make this a delight to play. And I actually thought the voiced sounds added to the charm :)
