I think this game is very successful in what it proposes, from the sharp gameplay to the almost-got-there difficulty, just as you would expect from games of this genre. Makes me want to play it more after the rating period. Also very suprised to see how complete it is. Good job!
Thank you very much! The entire idea when going into this was to make a complete game at a smaller scale, while still keeping it challenging and engaging. I'm very happy to see that I may have succeeded with that.
You really nailed that 80s computer game aesthetic!
The gameplay is absolutely rock solid. While the platforming is extremely challenging, I never felt like the game screwed me over. I did a few runs, and after learning the patterns and taking my time, I would usually be able to pass a section. That being said, the best I was able to achieve was 34 orbs. However, I’m not a master at platforming games.
The music and art were great and felt very cohesive. This honestly feels like a complete game. I also loved the backstory and relation to the limitation. Having to return the orbs is great haha! I also appreciate the separate story button. Good for people like me who want to read and good so people can skip if they want.
Overall, really fantastic work on this!
Thank you so much for the kind words. It is very much appreciated.
I couldn't get below 80-70 orbs, but I'm sure some hardcore gamers will be delighted :P
The controls are nice, but it's sometimes hard to judge the jumps.
Thank you. My apologies for the difficulty of the game. I've tried to make it much more beginner friendly than the games I drew inspiration from, but it seems that it's still a bit too tough.
I really like the visual style, I will definitely try something similar in the following games
Thank you very much for that.
This is incredible! I love the music.
Thank you so much!
A charming retro feel with great music. I like it :)
I see speedrun potential here for sure.
Thank you very much!
