How does your game fit the theme?
There's a big door in the map and the objective is to open it.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Everything (except the retro sound effects) was made by me from scratch in the week period of the game jam.

Loved the art work and the classic platformer style. I found a few of the ceiling, wall jump spots, a little frustrating, but not a deal breaker. I just died a bunch.
Overall, fun little game. :)
D
The game is decently good with good graphics and audio.
However, the ceilings in certain areas are pretty low, so I have a really hard time jumping over spikes and end up dying a lot. And there's a bug where I sometimes can't move to a previous room when I want to back track.
Otherwise, nice job.
Great visuals. Controller is really good and responsive.
nice lighting and effects, but wall jumping was very hard i died many times.
I enjoyed playing the game, but all the wall jumping was stressful at times. One wrong move and you fall. I loved the graphics are beautiful, to say that you made them within the jam period is very impressive. I physically got angry at a few points because I realised I had to backtrack and it was really difficult to get back. Saying that, the movement is very fluid and responsive. Very creative level design too. I liked that there were progressive checkpoints per screen so you don't always go back to the start of a screen when you die. I also liked that you didn't have to pick up a gem after you've already picked it up and died. Overall it's an 8/10 game. You did great!
I just have to do the wall jump at the start of the level and ended up stuck there and have to restart. Hahaha.
I can say that this is a fun game and challenging too. I almost gave up doing all the wall jumps. But having check points at every stage really helps a lot. And I also enjoyed the music. Love the art and atmosphere too.
I finally managed to win the game after 98 deaths and spent 28 minutes on the game. It's really cool to know the statistics and all. Haha.
All in all, I really love the game. Thanks for making the game.
Awesome graphics good job!
The art was really nice!
Very cool graphics, I love how lights are used to make the atmosphere. Walljumps were fun to perform thanks to screenshake effects. Nice game overall :)
Outstanding art! It's a really beautiful game, plus the controls are tight and it's fun to play. Great job!
Great level designs, amazing visuals, with adaptive music! Really good job! Congrats!
Thank you! I wanted the music to be even more adaptive and smart but I didn’t have the time
Great art, Congratz on the game is very well made!
Thank you! I’m glad you liked it
Its just amazing what you achievied with art in just a week! Good job, men!!!
Thank you! The most time consuming was the actual level design, it takes a long time and often remaking, testing and adjusting past levels
fun game wall jumping can be annoying at times but it is still very fun to play through
I’ve noticed the wall jump popularity is very divided among the players, it may need some tweaking and more in-depth tutorial section
this was very polished!
loved the look and the sounds felling and everything xD!
well done!
Thank you for the kind words!
It's a nice looking and nice playing game, but I don't see any real connection to the theme.
Fair, I had to scrap the mechanic that was more connected to the theme I had in mind, and I put a big door in the later levels instead to at least have some thematic element. Thanks for playing!
YOU MADE THIS IN ONE WEEK!? It's unbelievably great, The audio the graphics and even like the animation when you fall down and sticking to the wall falling down, that's really cool dude. It's awesome
Thanks for playing! I’m glad you liked it
The movement! It is great. I want to share my death count by it would be a shame to call me gamer after that.
It is a great game overal.
Thanks for playing!
after 20 deaths in the 3rd room I have given up. Love the death counter. I was shocked to discover the wall jump. The wall jump needs improvement, as its super hard to do without any guidance.
I also managed to wall jump off of some spikes as I fell.
Otherwise! Great
Yeah I was going to add a tutorial but didn’t manage my time as I would have wanted, also the wall jump mechanic seems to be divided between people loving it or having a hard time with it, so it definitely needs some tweaking. Thank you for playing and for the feedback!
Very well made graphics and audio! The game is juicy and i like the way it feels. Especially the Walljump. Very well made animations too! The atmosphere and lightning is great aswell. Good job!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
