Interesting, promising story, good choice of music. However, I do feel this pushes the definitions of 'game' a little, since there was no challenge aside from the collection of orbs, a task which the player has little incentive to complete. I know it's just a prologue, but I was expecting a little more. Still, looking forward to see how this develops...

I have to say, I love games of this style, and am looking forward to the real thing! I think trying to collect the orbs was a nice touch, and added a bit of a challenge :)

Beautiful to look at, but, ultimately, just another one of those "walking games". Nothing bad about that, I just don't like them very much, personally.

Agreed with the previous comments - pretty linear but I have to say this game is beautiful. And also the sound it fantastic. It would be nice to see some more interactions rather than just go walk the valley to the quarry and back - some small puzzles, button interactions or alternative routes would be nice. Really, really looking forward to the final product, this is a terrific taster.

Oh and for those who don't know what I meant...google Limbo game. The original masterpiece from where lots of details are copied here(including the spider, come on...)
I'd like to note that Limbo is NOT "original" nor is it what inspired this game. There are many great games that are made in this style, most of which came before limbo. In-fact, the inspiration for this game is called "Coma", which in it's turn, was inspired by "Nevermore".
The spider was a coincidence (I mean really, spider's are probably one of the most common "scary creatures" used in all media) that I noted while playing limbo, halfway through the development of this game. I decided not to change my plans just because of limbo, and I apologize if anyone is upset about that.

Okay all the orbs Specified: 1. Leave The starting screen and return. 2. When you "wake up" re-enter your bedroom and go under the painting while facing the same way then jump. 3. After getting shot keep heading left. 4. After hopping down the cliff walk under it. 5. When you get the shovel and are about to dig the holes say "no" and it will ask you if you want to dig for treasure. Do so. 6. Return the shovel to the guy. Credit to Gigalamesh and Innominate.

For the second orb, you have to *face left* and jump in front of your picture in your room. You know, so your face lines up with it. Which explains why people think it's from leaving and reentering, they probably jumped after they re-entered.

If we hit the bullseye the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-WHW-QNswE

For the second orb you jump up in front of your picture in the bedroom after waking up. Thumbs up this since most people seem to be having trouble with it

this game was amazing. good graphics, but not to complexe to were it lagged. great story line, but not a lot of talking so you get to actualy do things, and in some ways its little suspensful, which makes me want part 2!!! plus i wanna find all the orbs! great job. 5/5!

You get another orb at the very beginning. After leaving the first screen to find your parents, return and you will see the spider leave an orb.

I can only find three orbs. 1. After getting shot, keep heading left and it's on the ground. 2. When you go down the cliff, walk underneath it and it's there. 3. Return the shovel to the guy. Anyone know how to get the rest?

Oh, wow. This looks like a fantastic multi-part game in the tradition of Coma & Nevermore. I'm thoroughly intrigued! MOAR!
