I was trying WASD instinctively at first and though it was broken. After figuring out that it was the arrow keys, I unfortunately could not understand what to do.

Like the art and the idea behind the game. Not a fan of the controls -- WASD to me is default character movement. I know I was supposed to find items, but I could not tell where they were on the map. Still, nice prototype that could be developed into an interest demo.

nice art and animation but in the first step i dont understand how to play the game

Got a bit confused about what to do in start, loved teleporting thing. Nice art.

Looks really good but definitely hard to control as right handed person. Not use to using arrow keys. I felt like if I'm not using wasd to move can I at least use asd for the actions as they are much more comfortable to hit then Q ever is especially for people who don't normally play keyboard games. The graphics were my best part of the game. And please NEVER, NEVER, EVER start the timer while you're making me read the rules of the game. Only force a time to continue if I open a menu but not when you force me to read something. Movement and such felt smooth as well. Not a bad jam game.

Developer

We tended to fix the timer as you recommended, but we didn't have enough time ^^ anw I really appreciate your feedback, these rigorous evaluations are always necessary

While it isn't very chaotic, the art and game concept was really fun. Reminds me a bit of Stranger things mixed with a childrens book. It was cool.

I really struggled to find things/figure that out though, could use some visual designation on objects even if minor to help the player a bit.

Great job!

If you have another person and a controller available to plugin please check out my game!

Developer

Thank for your recommendation, we will consider to improve our game in the future.

Surely I will check out your game soon!

I liked the whole splitting your time between a nice school and the upsidedown. I am surprised you haven't had more comments and ratings yet. It plays like a solid game. 

Developer

Thanks for your compliment, I'm so happy that you already had a good time with our game

Cute art! I really like the big frog things. It was fun to see the player swinging a ruler around. When The big frog talked (when I smacked it with a ruler ;p) it was very jarring because the sound came out of nowhere LOL I especially love the broken artwork of the other world with the spiderwebs. Good job!

Developer

Thank you so much for trying our game ^^ really appreciate your feedback
