Describe How Your Entry Fits the Jam's Theme
It's about a facility which is in error, you must upload a patch at the mother tree! Do some bug "fixing" along the way.
Did you create all of your art/sound/music as a part of the game jam?
No Art was by PENUSBMIC Music was by Cyberleaf Studios.

Controls are good and has a good art style. Just some thoughts here if you ever continue developing it.
Thanks for the feedback it is much appreciated!
I second the combat rewards....also....the "Sword" gets in the way when you are trying to go "Up" with the jet pack....gets hung up under a platform if you are facing it.
I will look into the sword collision, thanks for the tip!
Cool, though simple graphics, good game and audio. Good luck in the development!
Very nice one! It looks good, it plays even better. As some other have pointed out the combat would need some improvements. Also maybe if you continue development add some sort of collectibles for killing monsters so you have an incentive to kill them. I loved the achievements detail :D.
Thanks for playing and giving feedback, it is much appreciated!
Nice visuals and controls feel nice.
Although the screen shake is a bit too exaggerated I think and a bit distracting at times even.
And just a bit of feedback for the later versions, fighting the enemies is a bit hard without getting hit yourself, as you need to get really close to them and there isn't really any knock back either.
Overall nice game!
I will most certainly add knock-back to the weapon combat is a bit ridiculous at the moment. Thanks for the feedback it is much appreciated!
Wow! This is really good! The sound design and artwork are superb! My only gripe is the combat, which felt like we couldn't hit the enemies without also taking damage. Also some notice about where the lava is would be nice to to prevent us from just falling straight into it! But really amazing game!
Thanks for the feedback, I only included the attack because he was holding the sword in the art but yeah it needs some knockback or something so you don't take damage haha. I can't tell if there is some kind of acceleration bug with on way platforms, I was falling very quickly sometimes, it was very inconsistent. I assume your referring to the one way platform on level 2. I might add a small platform below after the ratings are over. Thanks for your thoughts it helps a lot!
This game is really amazing, the gameplay is so smooth and the graphics are gorgeous. I love the fact that you made a tutorial and that you add a success system. Well done man !
Thanks for the kind feedback I'm glad you enjoyed it!
