Love the take on  mythology and the concept of loop! In general the game was very charming, great use of a 3D code too and it was very nice to play, Awesome!!!

Beautiful! This was really compelling, and taking thematic inspiration from Ovid and Greek mythology was quite a brilliant idea. I'm happy I came across your game!

The story presentation is really well done, and the game's graphics are excellent. Good job!d(゚∀゚d)

Really nice spin on theme, I like the fact that you took a myth and transformed it into a game.

Also the artstyle is amazing, gj :D

Developer

Thanks :3

Im surprised this myth is not as known >.<

Submitted

I didnt know about it until now

I loved the fact that you used an old Greek myth, it fits the theme so nicely! The environment is beautiful and even though the gameplay could've been polished, it's still pretty and relaxing! (that first fox jumpscare though, I had my heart in my throat xd)

I really like the environment: particles, light beams. Vfx for running was pretty cool. The game is short, but beautiful.. We also submitted a 3d game, and as you know it is also very short =)) 

Developer(+1)

Yup, both our games are pretty short, i think its not a bad thing for a jam ^^

Did you trick me into learning about the Stars? Love the game and the graphics are so good that my computer can barely run it at times. Fantastic work.

Developer(+1)

I did trick you into learning, thats for sure!!! Sorry about your computer and thanks :D

Its very short. But 3d is hard for a jam large environments very time consuming.
The antique myth connection is a very cool idea.

Would have loved to see them chase each other in the sky at the end to double down on their infinite pursuit.

Developer

Thanks alot! I wanted to make it short so i dont bother people and to not overscope, i guess it came out too short^^’

Game looks nice and gameplay feels very calming with that bgm. Overall good job! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks!

A short story game would be cool to implement more mechanics but I did like the enviroment.

Submitted(+1)

A very strange experience

Developer

It’s literally how the greek myth/paradox goes. Doesn’t make it less strange tho, i agree xD

Submitted(+1)

Not too sure what's going on but it's a neat idea.

Developer

You have to find the fox and hunt it, sorry it wasn’t clear.

Submitted(+1)

I have no idea what to do, but the visuals in this game are phenomenal. Great work!

Developer

You are supposed to hunt the dog; I am sorry if it wasn’t clear. Thanks tho…

ohhh I get it now! I kept clicking on the shiny thingies because I thought I was collecting them. I gave it a rerun and beat the game! I feel like it couldve been a bit longer. Stunning art

Developer

Yeah, it came out little short, 3d takes too much time hehe, im glad you tried again!!! Thank you so much ♥
