I'm excited about this game, especially the color palette, I just love colors like that! The atmosphere is just perfect for the theme of calm before the storm at the beginning, as well as after the storm.

Developer

I did my best to stick to a nice palette and I'm super happy with how it turned out. Glad you liked it!

Submitted

Very solid game! reminded me of meatboy, which is amazing! 

Developer

I'll take the comparison in stride haha. Glad you enjoyed!

Submitted

The music and atmosphere were so tranquil as I bashed myself repeatedly into spiked walls. This was well made! The movement feels good and the level designs were quite challenging. Well done!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words :D

Submitted

The level design is very well implemented, it is fun and challenging.
The art is simple but works perfectly with that color palette. 
Well done! :D

Developer

Thank you for enjoying! I'm glad everything I spent time on trying to fine tune ended up being fun.

I liked the visuals and the smooth animations for the player. The platforming was precice, however I wouldve had the player slide down like in other 2d platformers. I thought the zap mechaic was a really interesting way to implement the storm. Good work and keep going!

Developer

Appreciate the kind words and the feedback. Thank you for playing!

Good experience, I really enjoyed it to control this lovely slime! It has the same Celeste and Super Meat Boy's spirit, and it's including a lot of well designed levels and content. Good job dudes!

Developer

Thank you very much! I'm glad I was able to capture even a little of those two's essence in a week. Glad you enjoyed!

This was very challenging and fun! Difficulty scaling was not forgiving, and I was going to say it didn't match the theme, but then I got hooked and got to the ZAP parts. Good game!

Developer

Glad you stayed till the stormy section, as I feel like there comes my best level design. Glad you enjoyed!

Loved this game! It has a lot of deoth to its mechanics, each new stage feels like a completely new challenge. Good job! The movement is almost addicting ;)

Developer

Haha thanks for commenting on both the entry page and the actual page. Appreciate it immensely. Thanks for playing!

Great game and art. It was super hard but I beat it.

Developer

Glad you were able to finish it! Hopefully it wasn't TOO difficult. Thanks for playing!

Nice art,  nice levels and cool mechanics, the only thing I didn't like is keyboard layout.

Developer

Damn I had two different layouts for people who liked WASD and people who like arrow keys. Sad to hear it was still an issue. Keybinds will be the first thing I add if I do continue to update the game post jam. Glad you enjoyed the main game though haha.

Submitted

Yeah, spacebar would be nice for jumping.

Developer

...I FORGOT TO TELL PEOPLE YOU CAN USE SPACE TO JUMP. It's coded in if you'd like to use it. It completely went over my head as I rushed the tutorial with around 30 minutes left on the game jam timer. Will defo at least update the description. Sorry about that.

Such a cool game! Only thing I could really critique was the movement was a little bit jumpy when tapping a direction but it was a fun game. Incredible job to get done in a week, the level design was fun to maneuver around and  I loved the art style as well.  I hope you add more to it, the game has a lot of potential!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! Yea the movement, especially on the ground felt very sensitive. It's a hard balancing act between control and speed. Regardless, thank you for the kind words. If the reception is positive I'll definitely look into expanding the game and developing more levels. Also polishing up the things I rushed haha.

cute game! it was really fun and with cool mechanics too great job :D

Developer

Thank you very much for the kind words :)

Very cute and fun game! I beat it in 10 minutes and the last level is probably half of that😆. I forgot you can walk on walls so I tried walljumping like an idiot. Great job!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed! Sounds like the difficulty curve hit just right as I wanted the game to be 5-10 minutes long (apart from the last screen it was not supposed to take that long lololol) Thanks for playing!

It's a nice precision platformer, was stuck one time but the reset button saved me there.

Developer

Glad it was helpful to someone. I just couldn't make it not glitch into the wall 100% of the time so I spent time making that reset system. Glad you enjoyed!

Really good game, challenging for me as I'm not usually playing this type of games, but I liked it.

Great game, I think the implementation of the theme could have some more work tho.
