Works with theme. Gameplay is smart. Music and sounds are good too. Great work!
Only complaint that i have - game does not appear to have any way to pause/exit it.
Also had an idea, while playing, about how develop the theme even more . All visuals - complex at the beginning, but would start to become more and more simplistic with each level done, until even the words and buttons disappear and all turns into simple forms.
Thank you for the feedback!
I definitely plan on having a pause menu/way to exit in a build after the jam is done :)
Also if you play the rest of the game it does actually get simplistic (and something along the lines of what you said happens in the game ^^)
So so good! The puzzles are really smart and work perfectly with the theme! Love the little artist character!
Well, that's what modern art is about. I loved how you handled the theme in this game. Even though your game looks so simple, it looks amazing. The music complements the game in an amazing way. It all just feels so personal. Thanks for this game. I loved it!
Please take some time to play and rate my game as well. I would really appreciate it. Thanks a lot! Cheers!!
Interesting puzzle game. I really enjoyed the visuals. Choosing color palette and naming the paintings was a great touch that really made it feel personal. Good job.
Yeah, sadly, like everyone else it seems, I could not move when I was tasked with meeting the boss. Great music, and art style. At first I thought it was a drawing game, instead of a puzzle game, so I was a little frustrated that I couldn't make my own art in the program. After seeing it as a puzzle game though, it was pretty cool!
Well thought out game. Really liked the puzzles. The music was calm yet thought provoking. I could not move to meet the boss either.
I also had the problem where I couldn't move to meet the boss :(
I really want to finish your game! It's addicting lol
I loved this! The minimalistic art style was great and the music was so calming :) A great experience!
I really like the art for this one! The character is really cute and the animation reminds me of Paper Mario. Being able to choose your color palette is really cool too. Unfortunately I'm stuck to the scene where I'm supposed to show the pictures to the boss, the character cannot go right or left, even if the walking animation plays. That's a shame because I really wanted to keep playing! :(
It would've been super cool to have some sort of comment from the character for every piece you've finished, to help the player feel more connected to them, because I think there's a lot of potential here.
Hope you will submit a build where this bug is fixed after the jam end, I'll definitely be playing it :)
Thank you so much for your feedback! I've never played Paper Mario but now that you mention it I see the similarities ^^
To all the posts/comments above (including this one) about the "final boss fight" I'm so sorry that it isn't working :(
I have a lot of patches/plans for this game and was unable to follow through a lot of it because of the jam's time constraint. 100% after the jam I plan on fixing this because there's actually more content hidden behind it that I want everyone to experience.
