Ludum Dare 22
December 16th-19th 2011 :: Theme: Alone
First - JH - 48 Hour Compo Entry
My second Ludum Dare entry. I think the game is pretty much self-explanatory.
Your main task is to collect the glowing particles.
This time I tried to keep the game as simple as possible and focus on the graphics/sound. While I could not finish every detail I wanted, I am still quite happy with the result.
I hope you like it.
Controls:
WASD or arrow keys. Nothing else needed.

Wow. One of the best LD games I've played. Reminds me of Flow. The graphics are stylish and the music is very atmospheric. I like.
Very nice. The graphics and music do a great job of conveying the mood. The controls also add to the atmosphere, though they can get frustrating when you're trying to chase down a parasite.
Good atmosphere!
Maybe controls could be improved/quickened up a bit, but they play well with the style.
I'm not sure how 'alone' I felt, swimming around the world with 30 clones, but the atmosphere of the game is certainly very good. I felt kind of bad when I noticed that some of my spawned lifeforms were actually dying :(
Good job!
The game is great, maybe a bigger collision box for bonus would make it more fun to play. The control are ok like that, improving the maniability by upgrading is cool. nice soundtrack too !
One of the best entries I've played. Amaaaazing work. I actually wanted to finish it and see what happened. Great, great job! :)
I'm glad this got #15 overall (and #9 mood) since this was one of favourites.
Thanks for the nice comments! Compared to my previous LD entry this was a great success. Btw. I fixed a bug and reuploaded it. (Parasites sometimes kept stuck to the lifeforms, even when cured)
