Are you just stuck in the start area? I can't seem to get out of the starting point. There's water to the west and trees to the east. The game looks nice, there's just nothing to do as far as I can tell. You might need to add some sort of exit game function since it starts at full screen.

I see you're not continuing the game, so maybe in the future keep that in mind.

:(

Dear all. Beyond Matter has been discontinued but no need to worry we are working on a game Like beyond matter with the same Art style and have developed an engine in gamemaker called. TortoiseEngine.1 . We will be using this Engine and moddifying it heavily to add new features for our next game. We will update alot on our amazing future game but the first playtests on the workshop will come out around mid 2017. I bet you will love it. If we go better than we thought than we will upload as soon as possible. Hope you guys understand and will help out in the community. Now that we are actualy receiving a budget we will make the next game the best game you have ever played (Hopefully). Thanks guys.

Like the design, and am wondering, will there be walking animation? I know for me creating a custom character from scratch with full idle and walk animations is hard.

i like the sprites really

thanks.
Will see if i can add all of that

Looks like a solid start, but things to keep in mind for the future:

-Sprinting is very fast and it might be better to have it only activate with holding down the trigger;
-It's unclear where you can and can't walk at the top;
-The leaves on the trees should be better defined: darker or lighter at the edges, fewer orphan pixels at the side, and maybe a different color too. (I thought it was water at first until I went under it.)

Keep up the good work, can't wait to see where this goes!

hey Guys im comming back to my country of australia. about to get on the plane. iv made some amazing progress and cant wait to show you guys

I really like the style, hope to see more of it.

If you want to learn how to make games

i've recently got gamemaker and i want some help and guides? is there any tips you can give me??

This looks pretty good! I hope you continue to work on it!

Reminds me of Hyper Light Drifter I loved that game hope you guys can make something like it but it's own original thing.

Hope retro.

cool Im going to try it

Most big problem.

Animating is not hard but AI....
XD

Sadly right now I can not realise game documents but if there is one type of code that you want help with I would be happy to help

if i download the game can i see the code and how it works? i know how to code but have no idea how to use this.

sfxr - sound effect generator

Hey I can help you with retro sounds :D
I am using sfxr, it's very nice program.

Both retro fx Real ambient sounds

One question... Retro sounds or Real sounds ?

Looking good so far. The art style is nice, and I wish you best of luck with the project! If you ever need a little help with programming, feel free to ask me.

thank you septic. Enemys Comming Soon and a sound Engine

Very nice concept!

filipex Thanks. New update comming soon with new graphics and mechanics

Nice art :D.
Keep nice work.

ForgeZ thank you. I'm more of an art person and not programming in gml but I would love to learn. I'll get in touch and hopefully you can help me out on some future updates

The more thumbs up / good rating I get the more I add and eventually this project will become the demo for beyond matter

I will be starting a YouTube channel where I will time lapse my self working on this game and also updates to it
Soon I will be adding basic enemy's and on the website it explains the game

Thanks jalecko888

this looks great

you made a whole new project

SmirnuX Yeah were trying very hard on Walking animations. Its just a bit hard due to our low staff
also our website is up now so check description

its really looks good, but with walking animation it will be looking better.
