I really enjoy the artwork and map… is there a fullscreen option I missed?

Forgot to post here. I played this game yesterday, awesome work! I haven’t figured out how to complete it yet (assuming it is completable?), but I love the mechanics and atmosphere. Creepy in a good way.

It’s completable. If you’re having a hard time figuring out where to go, there should be some pink dots marking points of interest on the map. (you might need to zoom in the browser to see)

I don’t want spoilers yet. 
I figured out how to get and charge the gun, how to heal myself, how to kill the scary alien (or whatever it is) that spawns in the room to the right… I’m competent enough to avoid the moving robot things in the left room as well, to get to the top… though getting to the top of either of those rooms puts me into outer space and I die from losing oxygen. So I’m pretty sure that’s not where I’m supposed to go. The other room to the right, I shoot the panel on the wall and it moves the force field block (assuming that’s what it’s supposed to be)…
andddd holy crap. Durrr. I think I just figured out how to get to the next room. LOL.
Yup. That was it. Had to type it out to get to that “ah hah!” moment. I feel stupid now.
Note to self: you can shoot the panel from in between the force field blocks.

nice, you figured it out! that’s really the only puzzle in the game at all. basically stole it from The Legend of Zelda : Twilight princess because I thought it was cool.
also, as a general update on progress, I’m going to try doing an export again soon and try to fit in some music I left unused into the game.

It’s kind of rare to see puzzles like that in modern games. Nice touch there! I’m still facepalming myself for failing to figure it out the first time. I thought it was like a combination lock or something where I had to press up, up, down, down, left, right, A, B, start to open both the gates

Hey @F3Art - I’m planning to feature this game on Monday. I didn’t add it when you made the announcement because I had just added Ace Commander and wanted to give it a few days at the top before adding something new 
Great work on this one BTW!

Oh , that’s a good idea to give a game a few days before adding anything new.
And thanks! I had a lot of fun with the project.

This is probably one of the more unique games I’ve seen on Flowlab in a exploration sense. Most featured games are more arcade-like and to the point, but August Silence doesn’t hold your hand at all, and lets the player figure stuff out. Haven’t seen anyone do that until now on the site, so kudos!
I can’t praise this game enough, it’s very well made, and I’m happy to see it get a place on the front page:D

@F3Art Congratulations on the release of August Silence - great work! It’s well executed, good fun to play and gets you thinking! I haven’t managed to complete yet but happy trying!
Some really nice graphic touches with a stylish sci-fi vibe.

hey, I’m thinking of adding some cut weapons/abilities as cheats unlocked after beating the game. some of them were too overpowered to be in the game normally. (medusa ray, grenade launcher, and double jump.)
what do you think?
- yes
- no

I just played the game from featured games, it was pretty good.
I’ve noticed a few things/bugs, but the atmosphere and gameplay was great.

where would the bugs be? I can try to fix them after flowjam if you have any suggestions on a solution.
also, have you beat the game?
