A bit a hard, but really cool visual and audio !
Thanks for playing!
loved the game presentation & aesthetics, it has a really cool implementation of the concepts. I however think some friends are needlesly frustrating, like the square guy. I also initially though that the spiked friend was always chasing me, were the only possible mechanic was to run away constantly, i had been playing for a while when i discovered that i could just stand still haha.
But anyway, i think this is a great game with a lot of potential, it just needs some tweaking on some mechanics
Thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback!
My intention was that each creature would be puzzle by themselves, so the player needs to carefully observe them and think about how to counter them, so maybe I need to make this clearer with the level design itself.
I do agree that sleepy ( the square one ) is a bit too strong currently, but I really like how his mechanic makes the split his attention between his own position and sleepy's position and forces the player to use all of his tools (slow moving and queue shifting) to properly counter it.
I love this pixel-art!!
Thanks!
Love the art and cute game play! really good overall game
I'm glad you like it, thanks for playing!
Nice artstyle and really fun mechanic. I'd love to hit these little douchebags back though. xD
Hahahaha, but you're supposed to protect them! Thanks for playing :)
Great game, i found it a little hard but that's not a bad thing :D
Yeah, the last level in particular is insane( Mostly because I didn't have time to properly balance it) . Thanks for playing!
The pleasures all mine, I had fun trying it out.. I've never participated or ranked a game jam before, it's been a great experience
Really fun game! Your sprite art and animations are top notch!! I liked everything about it~ Super great job submitting such a fun and polished little game to the jam, you did it congrats! Please check out my game when you have time :D (hopefully you don't get the door bug XD)
I'm glad you like it! Although I did get the door bug, your game is also awesome :)
It is unfair how good this game is! The art is amazing the game play is fun and easy to grasp, this is definitely my favourite game from the jam!
Whoa, that's great to hear! Thanks for playing!
This game is great! I really enjoyed playing it! It really fits the theme well and its super charming and I really like it a lot! Great job dude!
Thanks for playing! I'm glad you had fun :)
I really liked the game's overall esthetics, and I thought it was a great submission for its very unique use of the theme. The collision boxes were a little cruel (like at the top of the players head vs the bottom of a rock) and the different creatures made the game very challenging. I expected a few levels, but they kept coming! Nicely done!
I agree that the collision shapes could use some work, specially the environment ones. The original goal was to have 9 levels, but I only had time for 7 in the end.
Thanks for the feedback and thanks for playing!
Very amazing game!
Thanks!
I think I found the winning game
Not so sure, there are a lot of amazing entries. Thanks for playing!
This is crazy good, art is amazing, controls go well with the mechanics (shift key was a smart thing to implement). Very nice music as always. Great job!
Thanks a lot!
Awesome! lovely visuals and music. Great to play albeit quite difficult
Haha, I need to work on my balancing skills. Thanks for playing!
What a great tone, a blast to play!
I'm glad you like it! Thanks for playing.
Great Game. The art and music go hand in hand, and that makes it all so much better. The idea behind it is perfect. It definitely increases in difficulty quickly and i love it!
I'm glad you could appreciate the difficulty, I sure had a lot of fun designs the levels to be as evil as possible hahaha( just kidding, I'm just terrible at balancing).
Thanks for playing!
Great Game
I'm glad you like it, thanks for playing!
Love it!
Thanks!
This game is amazing! The music is incredible and the graphics are so smooth and satisfying. It also fits well with the theme, with the backstabbing friends. I suggest maybe add an option with WASD keys. The game didn't work on web tho, there is just a pink screen there. It works perfectly fine downloaded however.
Thanks for playing!
Adding WASD is a great idea, I'll look into it after the rating ends. About the web version: Maybe I messed up something when exporting :(. Weird though, as it works for me on chrome. Maybe its only working on certain browsers?
Maybe it's an issue on my end, but it gets stuck on the screen below.
Yep, that's definitely some configuration that I messed up. Thanks for trying the game anyway, I'm very happy you could play it in the end :)
Awesome submission! The visuals are so coherent--I'm guessing that you made them yourself, right? What a cool concept. The bouncing is a little too forceful in my opinion, and sometimes I get bounced just for collecting a blue dude, which feels bad because that's the objective. Maybe disable bouncing for a newly-collected dude? Anyway, wow, great art and music! And collecting a dude is very satisfying.
Hey, thanks for playing!!!
I'm glad you like the art, I've made the all the sprites and music exclusively for this jam. The bouncing on collection is (kinda) intentional, the idea is that the player needs to approach carefully. Maybe I could not communicate this properly.
Thanks again for playing, and for the valuable feedback!
