A quite pleasant entry! Here are my complete feedback:


* Positive points
- Nice graphics, simple but efficient

- The LD is quite interesting and challenging

- The audio is good


* Negative points
- The starting dialogue was a bit a long, I wanted to play sooner

- The gameplay is quite too quick, indeed, the character is too fast, so sometimes I felt or hit something by accident

- A blocking bug, where I felt under the ground, in fact, I jump to another scene and at the same time I fell in a hole + I tried to jump again quickly => The bug was triggered.

Overall good job!

Thanks very much for your feedback! I'm going to look at making the opening dialogue a little shorter once the jam is done. I'll also look at fixing that bug and adjusting the player speed.

I appreciate it!

Hey! My game has the same kind of stylisation, but it's not THAT bright, haha.
Like it. :)

Submitted

The game looks very good, but the gameplay is let down. The game is too short. The effects are not so interesting if there is no interesting game behind them.

Submitted

Great graphical design choices, feels very unique

This game is extremely beautiful and has very satisfying mechanics. The sass of the quest lord was pretty funny too 

Submitted

I liked the lights and graphics. The way particles come out when you jump is really nice. My suggestion: add music. I bet that with the right music track and these lights, the feel of the game would be completely achieved.

Thanks very much!

I do have a music track, maybe there was a bug where it didn't play for you?

That being said, I'm not much of a composer, so it definitely could use some work.... I might try and redo it after the jam.

Submitted

Oh, my bad then, I'll try on a different browser, maybe something got bugged

Submitted

Cute game, I love the lighting!

Submitted

I like the graphic design and the idea of the game is pretty good! Good job!

Submitted

Pretty fun game! I think you shouldn't make platforming sections between two "scenes", the camera transitions can throw you off guard. Other than that, good job!

Developer

Thanks, I'll definitely keep that in mind for next time. Now that you mention it, I do notice it can be weird.

Tried to play until the sound drove me crazy!

Special art style but in the good way :D , the souds are to high Pitched for me but i like the game.

Congrats to publishing in time.

Cool game and especially graphics. Very minimalist, I like it.

Developer(+1)

Yes, I do minimalism by choice...

(definitely not because I'm terrible at art shhhh)

Submitted

Neat take on the theme and cool visuals, for some reason it reminded me of thomas was alone

Submitted

Yes the idea is good to gathering light. But feel a bit too much intro to read at first and dont know why somehow get stuck at 5th or 6th scene? is a bug or? 

Submitted

I also got stuck there...

Submitted

LOL Must be a bug!

Submitted

was fun, but the bloom was a bit overkill. It would probably be better if you made the hwole scene darker, so getting brighter actually helps you

Developer(+1)

Thanks very much!

Initially that was the idea (completely dark outside your light) but it was very difficult to not hit the spikes, so I added light. I do agree maybe it was a little too much though.

Submitted

nice idea and i loved the effects. 

Submitted

Excelent game for a three days project!! Liked the effects, the Storytelling and the sounds! Great Job!!
Let me ask, ou used Dinamic Lights 2d to make the light effects? If yes, how did you build it to  WebGL ?? When I tried everything messed up, so I needed to post it as a Windows Version. 
Would really appreciate it if you take a look at my project :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much!

For the lighting I used the URP and the experimental 2d lighting system - I first learned it with a brackeys tutorial.

And I built it using the Gzip compression format, which isn't default in the player settings. The default wouldn't run, this could be why but I'm not sure. I'll definitely play your game.
Submitted

Simple Game. Smooth Controls. Nice Artstyle. Like the little Storytelling. Maybe little short but for three days its amazing.

Submitted

it´s a fun little platformer, with maybe a bit mutch post processing! The only thing i found not so good was that the dialog was so long
