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
This is one of a kind. I have never seen another game like this and never thought that a flash game could be so emotional.
The artwork is great, and the music gives it an eerie, sad kind of feeling.
Its also incredibly fun to play.
It is just perfect in every way.

Superb
Wow amazing game. And very intuitive. I'm surprise there are people who don't get it. Maybe they are better off digging garbage for food as their life objective. Seriously how dumb can you are to blame the game after not being able to figure out what to do within 30 secs.
This was by far the most creative game and the coolest way to dig my imagination in all my life. Beats anything Wii throws at us :D

I can't get it to work for me
Beautiffuly done I must say btu I have no idea how to get off of the home planet. I get how to fire the tongue and I can build momentum but i don't go anywhere. I've circled teh planet and that makes the coulds disappear but I'm lost. I get to a height where the sky cahnges no night, and some arrow looking fly shaped things show up in pink and blue, I even tried ckicling on them. I even tried holding up once I reached the sky. Nothing!
PLease help! This game is in desperate need of a tutorial!

Amazing!
I really liked this game! Great music and art. It was very fun to play, if not a little challenging.
Although, I have to say, my favorite part was the poem at the beginning.
