Ranked from 52 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The game starts as a normal platformer and every time you finish a run they game gets harder and harder until it is very hard but possible to win, some might say it is too chaotic

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, me and the other guy as the team did all the code and only the font and jumping SFX aren't fully us but they are free to use

The game is really hard but fun. Post-processing is a bit too much for me. Controls are nice and responsive. Good stuff!

Thanks a lot, after the jam the post processing will be tuned down just a bit, we added it at 6 am so we couldnt really test how annoying it is xD

Submitted

It starts simple but becomes really hard. Fun to play!

Nice controls, the level is well-designed, and a feeling of constant danger of dying in a second from a sudden meteor on your head - it always keeps you thrilled (in a very good way).

The only flaw is it can get a bit too hard, and going through the same meteor shower over and over again(cuz of dying often) can get boring.

Developer

Glad to hear, we will fix it after the jam and ye.. this is quite OP xD

Well you have an interesting concept :D I liked the idea of stacking debuffs it really adds chaos ! 

Now here is my feedback :

  • You should set your canvas scaler ui scale mode  to scale with screen size that way it wont be small when in higher resolutions.
  • The level is too long if we have to play the level with debuffs again it becomes a bit hard and boring :/
  • The player feels a bit floaty you can increase its mass and gravity to make it more responsive.
  • The post processing is a cool addition but its a bit much to my eyes you should tone it down.

Overall i really liked the idea you should work on this after the jam i would like to see how it will evolve :D Great work !

Developer

Thanks a lot we will implement this features at the end of the jam, we do want to make it a lot better!

Chaos Hero is a very polished and simple platformer. i really liked the responsiveness of the camera, and the look of the game. the debuff system is sick!

Developer

Thanks a lot we are glad to hear it (or read it ;D)

Submitted

Neat platformer, the implementation of chaos is very interesting in the form of a platformer too. The movement feels very smooth too, great game. Could have been better if it had some music but the SFX on jump are a nice sound cue.

Developer

Thanks a lot, if we had a talented person in the team to know how to make music it would have been cool (or if we had few more days)

A simple solid platformer. I love the idea of increasing the difficulty of the same level! I wanted to get far, but the 60 second challenge was too hard for me. I would have loved to see some sort of chacter instead of a box, but I know exactly how hard it is at times to get some visual assets.

Overall, a solid experience!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, I wish our team had time to make, we wanted to start simple and upgrade to a normal player model if we had time (which we didn't) will work on it after the game jam will be over. 

Submitted

Simple idea, but fun to play!

Developer

If anyone needs a ZIP file version I can send it to him thru discord (The zip file and the rar are the same version)

Submitted

Submitted

Developer(+1)

Submitted(+1)

Nice game, i like that film grain effect, but im not able to complete "second level" but its only cuz im bad in jump games in general XD 

Developer

lool thank you!

Very intriguing game. I thought it was a simple platformer and that's it, but the difficulty ramp-up is nice. I imagine the chaos comes in the fact that the computer might randomly kill you at any time?

Maybe add a visible "countdown" of sort or some object/obstacle that makes the computer generate another random number. I think it would add to the chaos / will to complete the level again and again

Edit: talked with the author, they say there is one already. Could be a resolution problem or just me simply missing it

Really cool game, the controls are very nice!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

Nice job! simple visuals, but it worked. Gameplay was really fun. 
Agree about the checkpoints other have said :D, but regardless, great going! 

Submitted(+1)

The camera effects were a little extreme in my opinion with the blurry outskirts of the camera, the sfx is nice but i would recommend adding more checkpoints as others have said, good game overall!

Submitted(+1)

Camera movement is really smooth and I like it. Although, some people may not. Pretty simple and neat visuals.

Submitted(+1)

Good game! I like the minimalist visuals and the sfx and gameplay are nice. I would recommend adding some checkpoints as the player will get very frustrated over time

Submitted(+1)

Well that was stressful. Pretty sure i died without actually falling into the "lava", or can you not fall into it only touch it? Most of my cube was safe ahaha

Developer(+1)

at the moment you touch it you will go back to the start.
and some deaths have SFX added to them to let you know what killed you (lava doesnt)

Submitted(+1)

Good game! Didn't expect that it will be good. I gave this rating based on what I saw and probably you know it too. I'm not good at rating something, but I hope it'll do encourage you to make more games.
