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.

Interesting game, but with glaring faults.

There are two, but they're enough to seriously detract from the game for me.

1) Sound. The music is horrendous. Worse still, when you actually start the game, the volume intensifies. Fortunately, as there don't seem to be any sound effects, you can turn the sound off on your computer to make it stop. Unfortunately, that is inexcusable; games anymore really need an option to turn off the music separately.

2) Controls. You cannot remap them. WASD hurts my hand.

Please edit and do something about the former (the latter, I suspect, is hard-coded).

Tedious

This game is boring, but it has good art and for the first 2 minutes it's fun to hang from cloud to cloud. Good concept but boring execution.
Sorry!

boring

Epic time waster... not so deep, cute, but far from deep or meaningful

...eh?

I dont get this game. None of it makes sense. It's like im missing a key componant here, but i couldn't tell for the life of me what it is. Also the weird cloud way of moving sucks.
