Wow cool! The game is good but just lacks a bit of polishing. You can add a main menu, also wait for a player input to start the game. The difficulty is too much for the first level IMO, it would be better if you make a first level as an introduction. Otherwise, great work!

First Impressions.

-There is no main menu to start and prepare myself to play the game. 

-Difficulty does not build from beginning to end. 

-I like the assets they were nice and SFX was okay too. 

-When changing levels, the game does not allow the player to take breath. 


Overall, maybe if you had more time you could add more things. Keep up the good work and if you have time I'd like to hear your thoughts on my submission.

Really hard game, I managed to get to the level where there were two spinny boys over eachother. I've been stuck on the zigzag level for so long haha, really nice game!

The only thing which was a bit unsettling for me is that the soundtrack restarts each time you die, I think it would be better if it kept playing without restarting.

(also nice to see another Godot game besides all Unity based games ;) )

Neat game, don't really see the tie in to the theme, but challenging game that was fun to play :) good job!

Developer

it is just the nightmare part, I was going to add a story bit at the beginning but I never came around to it. thank you for playing! ^^

Neat game, but the movement is a little too fast and I couldn't get past the 3rd level. I also only had audio in my left ear. Good work, keep it up!

Developer

yeah not sure why that happened, unfortunately I only noticed after the submission time since I never player it with my head phones. thank you for the feedback!  ^^

A challenging yet fun game. The levels are well made and (most importantly) fun. The visuals are nice and the music sets the atmosphere well (the music does sound a big buggy but I appreciate that's probably out of your control). The player feels slightly rigid to control, so I think slowing it down and possibly some acceleration (doesn't have to be very much, just like 3 frames adds a lot). Overall a nice addictive game, good job!!

Developer

yeah the music glitch every time the level loads not sure why, it doesn't do that in godot. thank you for playing and leaving a nice feedback! ^^

I was initially put off by the sudden start and the rather ridged movements of the avatar, but it was actually a really well constructed moving-screen game. The tracks felt really well structured and hard enough to be challenging without being frustrating. Would have been improved with some additional types of obstacles, but I enjoyed it overall!

Developer

yeah I am planning to add a few more levels for the post jam version. thank you for my game playing!

This was quite the addictive game I must say. While I do believe you have a solid gameplay loop I do think it could use some improvements. First is that there needs to be some sort of delay at the beginning of the game, either like a menu screen, a countdown, or even just having a bunch of empty space to get used to the controls would go a long way as how the game stands now it just thrusts the player into an obstacle that they couldn't see coming. I noticed in later levels though is not as bad as there is some, albeit brief, time where you can see the obstacles approaching which kinda makes the first level get off a bad first impression. And secondly I think the controls at time are too sensitive, especially for a game that requires precision movement, that makes some deaths feel unfair. On a minor note I couldn't really tell how this game fits the game jam theme. Overall though I think you did a great job creating a difficult yet addictive experience.

Developer

thank you very much for the detailed feedback, I will try to put it in good use! :>

Tough but i beat it. Good job!

Developer

Nice! I was afraid that no one would be able to. ^^

The game feels really weird to play...

1. Player moves too fast vertically.

2. Vertical and horizontal movespeed is different, causing difficulty spikes for the controls.

3. Audio is scuffed: only left audio (for me at least).

But hey it's actually kinda addictive if you want a challenge due to its difficulty when it comes to mastering movement.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback fren, it helps a lot!
