I really liked the non euclidian geometry aspect, you really nailed the illusion aspect! besides the sensitivity being too high I would say this is a great submission!

Thanks! Did the sensitivity slider not work?

Great play on illusions.

I tried making something similar with the first "portal" with render textures but was screwed out of it by my pixelation shader making it look horrible.

Developer(+1)

Is the pixelation shader in your submission? I'll be sure to play it tomorrow morning. Either way thanks!

Any shot of getting this to WebGL so I can try & rate?

As I am running Linux I can't play it at all as of now.

I made a WebGL version earlier today but the main gimick of the game does not work when the screen resolution changes.

I can definitely bring it back but remember to not fullscreen the game. (Or you can fullscreen it while you're in the main menu, and then press start to have it work) Let me know and i'll temporarily bring it back.

For sure bring it back. And I will play & rate it.

Ok i'll do it now and take it down tonight.

you really captured the theme of illusion, i love the non-eucledian portals. if you plan on updating or making a game with this idea, please add a mouse sensitivity setting, it was quite hard to play because of the high sensitivity, other than that, the game is good.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah that was literally the next thing i was going to add and i wanted it done before the deadline really bad, but i had to wrap it up because i only had 10 minutes left. But regardless thanks! I'm going to play your game now.

This issue should be fixed now. I have added a sensitivity slider to the game, and a volume slider just in case that was a problem too.
