In what way does your game fit the theme?
It is a local-coop game and you need each other to attack and to solve a small puzzle.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
We made most of the assets and premade ones are referenced on the game page. And I didn't download and use premade scripts from online but i watched some tutorials and wrote the code on my own.

Amazing! Customizing the color of the character was really good.
I coudnt attack, the mous click and H button dont work for me.

However, I really like the idea and art and sounds. I rated 5 stars!

Got my house mate to try this out with me, unique take using actual co-op for a gamejam, graphics was good, great work :)

Submitted

Lovely game with lovely graphics! Was refreshing to see a multiplayer game, was expecting more of them in this jam! Good job overall :)

Submitted

The pixel art it's pretty good, but the best one it's the use of the colors, the splitscreen it's a nice detail and the gameplay was fun for me, nice game!

Submitted

The setting and the atmosphere is nice and well done. The art is nice but I would go for constant pixel size for the whole game. The movement and jumping could use some more polis. for example: if you run up an angled platform you jump really high and if you run down hou hardly jump at all. 

The splitscreen is a nice addition and the theme is fit quite well. But there could be some more gameplay elements that require both players (for example pushing big boxes)

After all a nice game with good setting.

I really liked that I was able to select the colors for each player :D very nice

The concept is very quite nice! Unfortunately, I couldn't get past the first golem (?) as I couldn't fuse the players together. I think it's a bug, or maybe I'm missing something. Overall, great game!

Graphics and audio are really nice.

Controls are also on point.

Well done.

very atmospheric and a great concept overall, it had a really nice feel to it overall with the art and sfx really making that atmosphere in my opinion, although i couldnt get far coz im playing just by myself, its surprising that someone would implement character customisation for a game jam to add more polish to the game, surprised you had the time for that! Great job! Good work on this game, very well done :)

Happy to hear that you enjoyed. Implementing colors didn't take too much time actually and i wanted to learn it to use in my next games too. This video was really helpful for me if you are interested too:

Thank you for feedbacks.  You have finished the game, it is just me that i forgot to click on scale with screen size :D.  Ending dialog is here for you:

********SPOILER*************

You realize your adventure is only starting.

Fate's guidance will not be with you all along the way...

But your hearts' will.

So long and thanks for all the fish...

To continue your journey, you need to press "Esc".

Very nice game, I had a lot of fun playing it! Pixel art was nice, and ambient sounds are pretty cool! Maybe some more SFX will make the experience even better. Fits the theme pretty good. One thing I would change:

When players are looking to one another maybe make it so only one can press the fuse button, because right now for me it is kinda confusing.

Good job!

Submitted(+1)

I do like the game a lot, it's atmospheric and it's a great concept I feel like. Sadly I couldn't get very far, playing by myself, but it was still fun to explore. I like the fusing mechanic a lot, just have to get someone to play it with me now :D

Submitted(+1)

Great game, I love the graphics and the animations :) The sound effects were a perfect choice too and made the game very atmospheric. It's amazing that you've even implemented a character customization option! Overall very well done, I had fun playing your game :)

Developer

Thank you for playing and commenting. I'm glad you had fun.

Great game! Nice touch the color customization. Good implementation of the theme.

The upper platforms were difficult, but nice once you master the jumps.
I reach that point in the screenshot which, by my understanding, was the end, cause I couldn't do anything else except press escape and exit the game

I added an extra difficult playing alone. But was fun anyway.

Great job! Congratulations!

Actually there was an ending dialog, however I only realised today that i forgot to click on scale with screen size. So if you play any other resolution than 1080p you are not able to see it :(. Sorry for that. And thank you for your comments.


And if you wonder about ending dialog i'm going to copy it for you:

Yes, I read that dialog (luckily), that's why I knew I had to press ESC.
I was able to read all the dialogs, but yes, I set the resolution on the Settings menu to 1920x1080.

Are you planning to continue with the game after the jam? Looks interesting

Developer(+1)

I quite liked the concept of it but i'm working on two other projects right know with a limited time. Though, i have a hope that one day i will continue on it and turn into a road trip story. Thanks for interest.
