Venture into space! Exploring distant planets and solving their puzzles to change the way the world

views you, become a hero!

Each planet has a puzzle to solve, when you figure out what it is and solve it the planet will regain

color and the screen will flash.

Tips:
- Use the W and S keys to spin all the way around in a circle (A-S-D-W-A).
- Hit P or Esc to pause.
- If you're stuck on a planet,take a break and come back to it later.

-------

Aether is an "Art Game" about personal childhood feelings and experiences. Please keep and open mind

when playing, relax and enjoy the game.

If the game is running slow for you, there is a link on the title screen to a standalone PC/Mac version

that will run a lot faster on slower computers.

"WOW!"

date: February 8, 2010

I can honestly say that this is the most refreshing concept for a game for quite some time. The visual style is very cute, the storyline is inventive & the general game play is very unique. One tiny annoyance would have been, even though it explained how to contorl your character, i found it difficult at times to spin my creature into space again. The controls made my creature go in crazy directions {which was frustrating after a while} but apart from that it's highly enjoyable to play & i can't wait for the second one ^^

"Unique!"

Just about THE most unique thing I've ever seen! The movement takes some getting used to, but once you get started, it's quite soothing! Well designed, both visually and technically!

Has there been an strange mishap with the flash?
The game play isn't relevant in any way to the author's or user's comments or ig help.
Or, what level is that 'tongue' enabled on?
Just, WTF?! :D
