Really cool game! It was very enjoyable and so innovative. It has some problems with the black hole cause it doesn't always eat words. It was quite annoying, but I liked the whole game! Relly nice! :D
Definitely one of the most original interpretations of the theme I've seen yet, and as a narrative oriented experience I enjoyed it quite a lot, and I appreciate the replayability value.
I liked the general humour and meta jokes in particular, the writing was very good all throughout, the audio comportment the game relies on is impeccable and the person voicing the narrator did a very good job, and together with the writing really helped making the personality of the narrating character come across.
I've found the art direction quite pleasant looking and consistent, and the set dressing for the level to be quite well done.
If I'd have to point out flaws in this product:
- I'll probably criticise how the main mechanic feels "weird" as I'd find myself holding left click while moving my mouse over a word several times before it would finally be absorbed,
- and I had a couple of audio glitches: once the narrator kept repeating a line about flowers in loop until I reached the next location, and when I restarted the game from the end screen the narrator kept playing his end game audio while also playing the game start audio at the same time.
Nice.Rate my game also.
The game mechanic is very interesting! The audiovisuals are great for a jam game, and the storytelling is interesting.
It took me a long while to get the black hole working in the opening, and I made some progress, but couldn't remove the words "appealing" or "pine".
I like the black hole effect and how it distorts the area around it, but it's very buggy and even when it works, it takes way too long for it to suck the words.
Some more sound effects would be nice, and I wish the narrator made a comment when I went to the left in the beginning.
Everything else seems top-notch from what little I could play.
Thanks for your comment, we're glad you liked it.
We've made a version with fixes and updates here that's been created after submission period if you want to try :)
I couldn't get past the first stage. Nothing was happening when I brought the hole near it. But the graphics and audio are awesome! well done!
has you tried this version : https://lacrearthur.itch.io/plot-hole-fixed
The control is not very sensitive but it's a very creative game!
5/5 best idea implemented
Very well done. That was extremely creative. Probably one of the best one's I've played so far. With a little more refinement, I could see this working as a really fun interactive storybook.
My only real complaint is that the black hole isn't very responsive. I have to hold down on the words for a long time before they go away, especially near the beginning. If you get those kinks worked out, I think you have a real winner.
has you tried this version : https://lacrearthur.itch.io/plot-hole-fixed the black hole is more responsive
Oh I didn't see the lumberjack :/ at the end when the book comes back i deleted the 't and it restarted with overlapping sounds. Well maybe there are alternate endings? Anyways, great game, I was quite surprised of the narration in the beginning, a shame the texts are a bit buggy, other than that I loved it.
We have made a page with a fixed version if you were not able to enjoy it : https://lacrearthur.itch.io/plot-hole-fixed
I hope you guys take the 1st place. You really deserve it!
Thank you very much!
amazing!!!!!
ouuuuuuuh what a game !! Great work dude nice game ^^
btw i rated ur game can u rate mine pls ?? and thx anyway !! <3
On it :)
Your game looks amazing, but it won't let me go past the very first phrase (the fallen log). I've tried holding it for a few seconds, letting go and trying again like you suggested, for some reason it's not working... I will wait for an updated version to rate it since I wasn't able to play it, sorry :(
What browser did you use, what OS are you in, is it a decent computer ? Have you tried the windows version ? It is sad to read since it is working just fine on my browser :/
And you will not be able to rate it after the end of the week, but it is only then that we would be able to make updates to our games
I tried playing it online and when it didn't work I downloaded the game to my Aspire 5. However, I just tried again playing the web version and this time it worked! The black hole was still a little wonky, but I managed to play the entire game and rated it.
Overall, amazing work! Really cool idea for a premise and interpretation of the theme, nice narration and graphics! It was really enjoyable despite the bugs (there's another one at the end where you can restart the game before he finishes the narration, and then the two audios stay overlapped). Great work and I'm already following you to see your next creations
Sorry again for the inconveniences, the game was poorly optimized, and thank you very much for your tenacity to play it nonetheless !
Absolutely Gorgeous game on a high level. I loved it very much.
I want to know who's Aaron. Great game btw, a simple mechanic with flawless execution. Loved the narration, it was very entertaining.
Thank you so much for your feedback, and we are really happy you enjoyed it!!!
This game is so adorable and funny! I loved it!
Oh men, I loved it. I would definitely play sequels. I'ts just annoying how hard it is to go over some bugs.
We're currently optimizing it and making some changes - once the rating period is over we'll be able to update the game. Thanks for your comment.
