Good Job Bro! It was a solid submission for sure! Find my video review below:
25:40 Oil Jump
Thankyou ! :)
This was a quick and well designed platformer.
Theme:
Less health you have the more jumps you can take. This was a pretty popular use of the theme, trading life for something. And it worked well here!
Visuals:
A cohesive game and watch aesthetic! Everything was very well done in this category. The only downside to this style is how simple it can look, but still worked very well!
Sounds/Music:
There was a short repetitive track and a jump sound effect. The game was very short so this was okay, but if the experience was any longer, variety in this area would help drastically!
Overall:
This was about a 3 minute adventure following a cute robot who leaks oil from his bum when he jumps, and sadly, he has to do a lot of jumping. There were unique ideas put into place, that could have been utilized a little more like the jump pads and oil cans, but for a first game, this was very excellent!
I streamed it here, starts at 1:25:00
Thankyou very much! this is really appreciated :D
For your first game, you should be really proud! This was fun, short and sweet. I think you could take this idea further, if you ever decide to keep working on it.
Thankyou very much! and I will be making more levels :D
Really cool game, I really like the sounds, music and visuals.
I was waiting for the challenging levels to come, but there are only easy/tutorial levels.
Either way, neat game :)
Thanks! also yeah I had to time to add in challenging levels but when I update the game you'll find more levels and some challenging ones too I hope. :D
I'm rating your game well because I think it's a very promising one!
I like everything about it
Really good job, keep it up!!
Thankyou very much! :D
I liked this, even if it's really simple. this proves that a good iead works!
Thank you so much! :)
Hej, great game for your first game-jam entry! I love the minimalistic art style (I'm a sucker for pixel graphics) and you have multiple levels with some sort of difficulty ramp. Great effort!
Here are some pointers from me:
1) I'd let the robot go down to 0 hearts, that gives you more than 2 jumps and would probably allow you to be a bit more flexible with the level design.
2) Some more difficult levels could be nice.
Thankyou! also yea I tried to add difficult levels but I had no time in the end so I decided to make levels I thought would be quick but a little challenging at the same time. :D
The visual style is very nice. The platforming feels good. The best part for me was the developer commentating the game. It fit really well and made the experience even better.
Thank you very much! when I first made the prototype I felt something was missing I added the art and every thing felt, bland then I had the idea of putting text and that helped alot. :D
Nice game. I love the graphics and simpleness. I would love It if you played my game.
Thank you! :)
Very fun little game! I love the pixel art and animations, the concept is brilliant and I think the level design is very good. All around this is super charming and fun little game! Great job!!
Thankyou very much! :D
Good game! Like all of it!
thanks! :)
I find the levels' texts pretty charming. At first it felt like a tutorial, but then they started showing more personality and I could feel the developer talking to me. Specially liked it when you mencioned your favorite level.
The game was enterteining, even if it was a bit short :D
I thought instead of putting a background with art I placed texts and it worked out in the end :D
I liked the idea and implementation, you can do fun puzzles with it, great work
Thankyou very much!
Like the concept. 10/10.
Thanks!
really fun game!
:D
This game was a perfect jam game:
- Simple, easy to understand controls.
- A mechanic that ties in well with the theme.
- A visually consistent pixel art style
I think you did a great job making interesting levels and a fun game!
thankyou very much!
Very nice, could see more of this working down the line.
Thankyou very much! :D
Hi - That was great, the level designs were good(my favourite one was the "It isn't what it seems" one. I think it could be cool if there were bigger and harder levels.
Thank you! I had little time left to make levels so I decided to make fun levels instead of making challenging levels. :)
i like this short game but maybe a death animation
Thanks! but I had a no time left to make a explosion :(
I actually really enjoyed it despite its so short. The commentary added a ton of personality and the simplistic art style did you favours. Congrats on your first jam
Thankyou! I am happy you enjoyed :)
