I feel like this could have been, at least slightly, inspired by Gustave Diore's illustrations of Dante's Inferno. Love the art, love the atmosphere. Would be a really cool setting for a fast-paced melee-based combat game.
It's from heavens gate. A religious cult. I don't know a lot about it but when I looked up some of the phrases the black spere said it was word for word what is said here.
Congratulations on the artistic section, it looks impressive!
I like it a lot and it seems very professional to me how the opening of the game is made and the transition when you hit the Start button. By the way I think the Start button is always "selected" because it doesn't change the animation.
Within the gameplay, it seems to me that the clouds are very well achieved, although sometimes a certain popping is noticeable.
When the two towers spawn, I would make them much slower for two reasons:
- The player may not be looking at the moment
- It takes a long time to arrive.
Being an experimental game you could test the idea that the towers appear as the player gets closer, that is, interpolate the height of the towers with the distance from the player.
This was absolutely gorgeous! I loved the story elements as well as the cheeky meta flavor to some of the observations. The first apparition really left an impression on me.
At first I didn't think this game would have a story to it. I just thought it was a very basic walking sim but I am so glad I checked it out. This game was beautiful and mysterious and was one of my favorite simple ones. Can't wait for more work by you.
I searched his name on wikipedia. He is actual poet of Dante's divine comedy. I am gladly I was going into my curiosity for historical literature. Great work, developer!

Or an RPG! :)
The game looks interesting, but having AI generated "art" as the cover of the game is weird ngl.
Don't mind the title
Interesting , Cinematic & Creepy walking sim. and great storytelling.I found the Black Sphere on the white horizon. Any chance we can learn what the audio is from?

this was a wonderfully haunting experience; I felt I could've walked around in that place for hours, staring into the sky.
I can only join the other comments, such a beautiful walking simulator! I love it!

Beautiful atmospheric walking simulator!
Divine comedy reference? Really cool!
