this is like the ending of Assassin's Creed 2 except like 8 times and also theres Dom.

not only is the moment-to-moment gameplay super clever and fun, but the game as a whole is really well paced. and the way everything comes together in the end is awesome.

Amazing! my favorite part is the bridge, super creative!

Really interesting mechanics, this could be very cool if you continued development on it :)

That bridge part was smart. Loved the game was fun!

Hey! This was one of the first games I played in the jam a few days before the submission date, I sorted by random and this came up

I've only come back to it now - I actually tried to find it to show a friend but couldn't find it haha

It's super silly fun and creative, reminds me of some of those classic troll flash games. I didn't see the bridge png in the description so I just went to google to find a wallpaper that was big enough to make a bridge hahaha

Amazing game, deserves the win.

Actually, my one gripe is you spoil the ending in the thumbnail

this is a game about saving Dom's family so I wanted the player to know what the stakes are from the beginning lol

thank you very much for playing!

cheers

Great game, Very Interesting! Its not the prettiest game I have ever seen….But I guess is part of the charm (Would look cool with an “windows 95” aesthetic IMO)

I did not expect this game to be this fun, the creativity wowed me quite a bit. Really really good game, love it.

Nice Game!  Very clever!  I got stuck on the slide level for a little while, but I got there in the end!

Loved it. The art style was very charming. Music could use some work. The bridge link level was so satisfying. Using a mouse definitely made it easier (Jumping, and using sound bar + check box was a tad annoying with trackpad).

This is really good. Perfect game design. If this were a world in a full game, you would have executed it flawlessly. You introduce each mechanic one by one and put a challenge at the end using what we've learned. This is really great work, especially in the creativity department. I don't think you could find many other games like this.

Only thing i'd improve on is the style. I absolutely understand that it's supposed to look bad, weird, and unnerving (my game does that too) but I feel like it goes a slight bit too far with it. I wish the UI was a bit more organized and I feel like the music should be better. Like you can acknowledge that your music is purposefully bad but that doesn't make it not bad. I feel like there's a balance you can do with bad music but not bad you're supposed to turn it off. I like the option to toggle the music though.

But those are just minor nitpicks that only I feel. They really don't detract from the game much. Very great job!!

thank you very much for playing and for your feedback!

these "nitpicks" are in fact a very much valid criticism. as I said in another comment, I was looking for a balance between intentionally bad/unironically good, and as you have pointed out, I might have unfortunately not found it

also you're gonna have to trust me on this one, I would've made the music better if I could, but I wanted to make everything myself so I ended up with this cursed <1min loop.

thank you very much again, really appreciated!

I understand that so much. I ended up using public domain midi for my game when i fully had the skills to make my own. Time crunch is a sucker though :/

I dont even know how you can code stuff like this. Its just good and really creative, it makes the player feel smart as well.
