I adore the animation and the bones here. I hope you do keep working on it! I didn't fully understand the combat mechanics here, I feel like if stealth is the goal it might have better to just focus on how to get around the enemies.

Go Go Big ModeAmazing job! I love the hand drawn characters and animations, especially the jump animation. I also really enjoyed the ideas in this game, jumping into your own hat, the stealth and platforming. Great work!

Bobby Wants SoupThe animations on the characters have a really charming style. Would have been interesting seeing this style also for the environment. As for the mechanics, it was quite difficult to get a hang of it. A tutorial section, and a slower learning curve would probably have helped me personally. Nonetheless well done on smooth movement and great style!

Bored @ SchoolThe expressive animation in the characters is so charming, and the stealth animation is hilarious. Difficult to aim the bombs but i ended up getting the hang of it. Lovely little gem.

It Brews Below (Bigmode Jam 2023)Charming little game, I'm a little confused on what the potions do haha. Maybe change the character sprite color to something more polar opposite (i.e.: red) to indicate the mode switch has been triggered? It's a bit hard to tell with how it is.
The character animation is very smooth and charming though! The stealth is interesting, even though I barely use it. I like the tease of the goal at the start of the game. Keep it up!

Legend of Lu: RemasteredPretty cool platformer. I really liked the hand drawn sprites! Also it was cool how partway through the game the music changed when you got far enough in.

SlipstreamStyle of the game is really cute , going inside your hat is an amazing idea , level design could use more work but it has a potantial , keep it up!

Metamorphosis :Ape AscensionArt style and animation are very cute, but it's kinda hard to see what you were going for when the game is kinda primitive. Chaining together explosions and jumping to get across large gaps was pretty fun though!

GEMINI PRIMEI really love the animation, it has a lot of charm to it. Unfortunately I see that a lot of stuff wasn't finished in time. This is a really great base to build off of.

ENGAGE: M0-D3I do like that little dog looking dude, are they dogs though? idk but they're drawn great

Little StitchesJust wanted to join the consensus on animations, they're amazingly cute.

left on readFun animations. I think with a lot more tuning and variety of enemies/challenges you could have something great. The movement overall felt really slow, which isn't innately a bad thing, but with how large the levels are, I think the player character could definitely use a heavy increase in speed. also what the bombs do and how they're supposed to be used was pretty unclear, but I do like the concept from what i was able to pick up. Having a bomb that pushes yourself and enemies away could be super fun, i think it just needs some tuning to make it more consistent.

UnDuster (Jam Version)I loved the art!! The way the little guy can sneak into a hat is so adorable. I loved the floating animation too! I think the bombs were a little unclear, it was hard to tell what to use which one for. I did finish the level but was still a little confused. The level design was also a little unclear but with the great music and art I totally understand the time constraints causing a few things to not be as fleshed out as needed. I hope you flesh this game out someday it was so nice.

Robo ModesI know you weren't able to complete the game, but what you have is a great start. The animations are extremely cute and fluid, and besides the slow horizontal movement speed, the controls feel quite fluid as well. The enemies were a little frustrating since they had so much health and dealt so much damage, but its hard to tune that without the rest of the game to go off of. Also great music!
