Love the art of the roboter! I like how the enemies change direction when you jump over them. I felt like the game was a little too easy, maybe reducing the hearts of the player or adding more enemy types might make the gameplay more interesting!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The Character rewinds to start of the tutorial level with the world changing slightly
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
code was written from scratch as well as artworks and music.

Thank you!
At the time of development, we didn’t think that we didn’t need to give the player any direction.
The game fits the theme because when you finish the level you rewind back to level 1 for some weird reason that you need to find out and stop.
Anyway, what else did you like and didn’t like about the game?
Thank you!
This is a bug that I knew about didn’t really bother to fix for some reason. Maybe because it didn’t cause many problems in the Unity Editor. It would be an easy fix but I just didn’t bother as I didn’t see it as a problem at the time.

I do agree that the game lacks a challenge and is sort of boring. I was actually expecting bad reviews about the game being boring. However we sadly didn’t have time to think of some ideas to make the game more fun and implement them. I’d say that it was time issues (my timezone and the rest of my team’s timezone is a 14 hour difference) and we probably think of ideas better as a group.
Thank you!
I know the main menu is a bit confusing and I should have made it also reacting to clicking too. You are supposed to bounce back when you collide with the viruses thus making it impossible to push the viruses but we did not have time for that.

Player movement is one of the buggiest parts of the game and I tried my best to fix all the bugs but some will remain. For the menu, I probably should have also had the buttons react to click but I didn’t think of it at the time it would be such a big issue.
What else did you like and didn’t like about the game? I will check out your game tomorrow.
Thank you!
Do you still like how I did the main menu? I know it was confusing for you but I’d like to know if you like it or not.
The player movement is by far the buggest thing in the game. I tried my best to iron out every bug but some may remain. The reason why I didn’t look into physics material is that it would be more work. Now that I think about it I probably should have just used physics materials instead as it saves a lot of headache.
As for the holes but you don’t fall, are you talking about this? This is intended behaviour.
We are aware of this animation with the robot bug but sadly we did not have time to fix it.
Anyway, what else did you like and didn’t like about the game?
I can only speak on the programming (as that’s what I did) and maybe a little bit of game/level design (as I’m not the main person who started this).
I probably should have made the buttons react to clicking too but also preserving the menu I have right now.
I also probably should have made that pit fall. I actually suggested it should make you fall and end the game but there was a collider and the main person said it was intentional so I left it alone.
I also probably should have just used physics material instead of going through all the trouble with the player movement and jump.
Thank you!
We were going to improve the environment but sadly the tileset was deleted and we did not have the time to make a new one. We also had different enemies but sadly we also did not have time to implement those.
What do you mean by in level design try to steer the player a bit more? Do you mean make it more interesting?
Anyway, what else did you like and not like? I will check out your game tomorrow.
In terms of level design, I mean steer as in let the player know where they have to go a bit more, what their goal is. Doesn't have to be arrows or anything but just hints as to what the route is and what the player needs to achieve. I generally really liked the feel of the game though, and like you said it's not finished, so with some more work be interested to see how it turns out :)
Thank you!
I do agree that the gameplay is a bit bland but this is a game jam (and our second game jam too) and we wouldn’t have time for that.
What are the problems in the controls? Is the player movement a bit buggy? I’m sorry about that but I tried my best to perfect the player movement but inevitably there are going to be bugs.
Anyway, what else did you like and didn’t like about the game?
Uhhh, well the premise is kinda interesting, like you have to replay one level but with different condition (reminded me of the blue elephant game).
The controls isn't buggy per say, but the jump could use some improvement.
See this for better platformer jumping:
Also, the robot jump animation is kinda cute/funny, lol.Thanks! I’m sorry about the fact the jumping (and by extension player movement) is a bit buggy. I tried my best to fix any bugs that occured in player movement but there will still be bugs.
For the colliders being a bit funny, are you talking about the colliders in the pit and you don’t fall? That is intended behaviour.
What else did you like and didn’t like about the game?
I think that when u collide with the virus from behind, you don't take damage. That bothered me a bit. Other than that , it is a great game.
Also checkout my game https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-4/rate/724912 . I would love your feedback.
