In what way does your game fit the theme?
a little girl who just wanted to watch a puppet show, but got sucked into a young puppets manipulative game (chaotic world), the player's role is to be able to get out of this scary chaotic world
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes

I'm sure you've heard enough about the menu glitch. :P I really liked how it felt to move the character. Very chaotic, fitting! Sadly on the last level I jumped and it sent me to heaven knows where. Also THAT JUMP SCARE! It actually made me flinch lol.
Main menu doesn't work with mouse. If I click anywhere the hand indicator is gone and nothing else workds,I had to alt+f4 and try again a few times until I realized I had to use the keyboard. Music only played sometimes. After I got the needle/sword I went up the stairs to the left, fell down and got stuck.
The game seems really nice, could have been a good experience but overall it feels like there are many things that aren't working properly. If you work everything out this can become a great game, I loved your style.
The visual presentation of this game is stellar, you did a great job! You managed to keep a good consistent tone throughout as well, which is brilliant.
I think the game would benefit from some additional on screen instructions, I only realised how to pass the screen with the pit after checking the controls menu. There are a few bugs, like the finicky main menu and very sensitive level transitions, but people seem to have already mentioned those.
Overall this is a really good game, and you did a lot for a jam entry. There's definitely an interesting concept here to explore post-jam if you wanted to!
Thank you soo much we really appreciate your feedback!!
Yes those bugs we will work on fixing them 👍🏻
I couldn't hear the music, the game ended really strangely but it was cool please rate my game also liked the boss battle but was confused on what to do
This is a wonderful game i love the art! and the situation shes in! this is epic!
Thank you!!!
Amazing game with a beautiful tone, The game was great. The only change I would make is better transitions between stages. It would have been great if instead of the new level just appearing, if the curtains closes and the stage was rebuilt. But apart from that, it was great stuff, and an intriguing and beautiful platformer that I would like to see further developed. Great stuff, I'd love to hear your thoughts on my entry.
We would consider that in our future projects, thank you!! 👍🏻
Sure!!
The atmosphere of this game is incredible! However I found some bugs
Hope that helps you on future versions! Similar to what the previous comment said. Test every new feature as even a seemingly minor change can have massive unforeseen consequences.
Also, I would love if you reviewed my submission!
Thank you for your feedback that means a lot!!
We will work on that and we will try our best in the next game jam thnx! 👍🏻
Sure! I will check it
I can tell you spent a great deal of time getting the theme, graphics, and concept really solid. And they came out great.
The platformer gameplay was decent, but I found myself lost at times. I wasn't able to get past the spike pit screen. My recommendation is to set aside some time during game jams for user testing. This will help you make sure that players get the experience you wanted them to. I usually start user testing on the 4th or 5th day and it really helps a lot with honing the user experience.
Thank you soo much for your feedback!!
We will do it next time 👍🏻
The design and the idea are awesome. I would recommend to change how your UI works because it is kinda unusual and hard to understand at the beginning. Great work !!
Thank you for your feedback!!
We will work on improving it! 💪🏻
You implemented the theme very well. Creative!
Would appreciate if you give mine a rating: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-6/rate/1176432
Thanks!!
Sure I will check it out!
Needs feedback on hit --- sound, screen shake, flash, something. Didn't know when I was being hit. Needs to have more of a clear understanding of when I die. The character was a bit difficult to control
The music was cool, but stopped working! And the atmosphere and aesthetic were awesome!
Thank you for your honest feedback!!

Great atmosphere and art, but UI and controls were frustrating to work with.
its probably good game but from any reason i cant even pass trought main menu
Did you use the arrow keys or S W?
It's a unique and fun theme for this jam, sadly UI is super buggy and I really can't hear the music. Animations look great though.
I think you should use sound fx from the internet, look at the pages like https://freesound.org/. It would make a giant difference in how people experience this game!
The art and music were so, so atmospheric and creepy! It felt really thrilling to go through the levels. The only problem was some places were hard to pass through, for example the buttons rope with sharp needles on the floor took a lot of time. Apart from that, amazing game! I will definitely check out its future versions!
Thanks!
Interesting concept I’d say, art and music were good (a bit too good maybe as it nearly crashed my very trashy pc :) ). Only suggestion is maybe improve the scene transitions? When playing sometimes if I jumped way too high or just reached the bounds of the screen it would briefly show the first “room” of the game again and then return to the one I was in/the next one which would sometimes confuse me and stop me from making the moves I wanted to make as I couldn’t see my puppet…
Thank you for your feedback!
Sure we will work on improving it!👍🏻
Art and music scared me so mutch! Intresting perspective on puzzle/platformer game
sorry for scaring you 😂
Thank you for your feedback we really appreciate it! 👍🏻
the Art in this is really nice, very nice concept and feel.
Really well done on this, lots achieved in a short amount of time.
Good Job!
Glad the art is to your liking, thank you so much!
Thanks!!
Nice game with a very unique take on the theme, atmosphere is great. Good job!
Thank you so much :)
