The setting is quite relaxing and if this was the afterlife I think I would be fine chillin' here too bad the game doesn't like the graphical drivers I'm using so it runs poorly most of the time, this is not your fault, I don't got enough time to be updating drivers and dealing with Intel's legal bs and decided to just push through till I stopped, I do wish there was music of some sort, and I kinda like the narrator but I feel like it would be better with a human voice instead of a TTS bot lol. Not bad

This reminded me the first jam game I ever made! Great job on the environment, lighting and the movement mechanics. It feels really solid. I would like to maybe see more challenging puzzles but I'm surprised by the work you were able to put together in such short amount of time. Voice acting was a nice touch. I also spotted cleverly hidden  "3... 2.. 1." references. Overall it's a successful jam game! Good job :)

Developer

Thank you man 🙂 I had to wake up at 7 then sleep at 22 to do this

I very much liked the whole story-telling vibe the game gave off. I was really impressed by the whole structure of the game. It was laggy, probably because it was created in unreal engine, but it was playable. If you could iterate on this game concept a bit mor and polish a bit of the controls and the worlds, I would be ready to buy a full release game. Great work!

Developer

Yeah I would like to continue too ! Thanks for the feedback !

Love it! I managed to get all the portals! The music background sound was great. 
The voice gave me chills, but the good kind haha Good job! 

Developer

Just tried your game and well, i felt a bit lost and i didn't even understand what i had to do ... I went into random portals without any clue on what i was doing, and when the timer went out i just ended up swimming to the edge of the map, and finally quitting.

There is a real performance issue though, and i think this is only due to the grass.

However, i really like the chill atmosphere of your game !

Keep it up !

Developer

Thank you ! Yeah I forgot to add the tutorial map 😐

That was pretty fun. Gameplay was kinda basic, but that's fine. Level 3 was pretty annoying because I couldn't get up the hill at start, and then if you fall with the 3 minute timer you don't have time to try again. Maybe you're supposed to swim over to the right island to start, but again there's no time for that. If there's an alternate portal there for a harder path, then couldn't you just swim over and skip the whole level? Also got some "lighting needs to be rebuilt" errors on some of the levels, that's a quick fix. Altogether, not bad. I liked it. Music was very zen and you put a lot of effort into incorporating the 3-2-1 theme. Even though I complained about it, the falling blocks on level 3 being a 3-2-1 pattern was clever, and I appreciate that the falling blocks were oriented differently so you can tell they're going to fall.

Developer

Thank you that mean a lot to me 🙂 and yeah for level 3 you had to swim on the right (direction ) island to have a quicker portal

Interesting, I got lost pretty easily in the levels, but the graphics and sounds are all great. Love you can swim too. Interesting concept, keep it up!

Developer

This is actually a pretty good game! I had some performance issues but that’s because I have a kinda old gpu and the visuals need a bit of polish but all in all, Well Done!
