How does you game fit the theme?
The game is quickly controlled by your computer, who tries to convince you to forget about this numeric fake world and go back to the real world to do some productive activities and see your friends.
Will he manage to get you out of the game ? Will he change his mind ?
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I did not have a lot of time, so I unfortunately couldn't do the player controller script, and I also used some assets for the sprites and the sounds. All of the assets are mentioned in the credits !

I was very amused that my computer is already sick of playing platformers, the plot has made me fall in love with it. Well done!
Thank you so much ! Really glad you loved the dialogs, I put a lot of effort into this ^^
Awesome game design! Although it's "just another platformer" (as my PC said :) ) it's a polished one, so kudos to that!
Hahaha thank you a lot mate ^^
Your game is REALLY awesome too :D
Nicely done! The story at the beginning is a nice touch.
I'll go outside now to enjoy some sun ;)
Haha I'm glad if you can enjoy real life and digital life, both have some great things to share :)
The game is a simple platformer but really the challenge you threw at me was a surprise. Maybe after the jam I'll try to complete it. Very fun overall!
Yes it's pretty hard haha, it serves the story ^^
I would love it if you do it after the jam ! :D be sure to give me your feedback if you do ^^
super fun game!! Love the cute graphics, and the audio was amazing too!! I enjoyed the narrative as well! very well made game!! ^^b
Thank you so much ! ^^ Your game was really awesome too :)
Love the idea and the art, had fun! Really impressive you could finish this in 7 days!
Thank you a lot ! :D
I'm sorry, I own a Mac so I can't play this entry.
I apologise, but good luck in the jam!
No problem ! Good luck to you too ! :)
This game has awesome graphics and sound design, I love the personality and use of reverse psychology!
It did start off really hard like the text warned me about, but I felt compelled to try and try after dying countless times which is a good thing on your part.
Good job!
Thank you so much ! I'm really glad you enjoyed the links between the dialogs and the gameplay ! I put a lot of effort into that ! ^^
Great idea, great game and good story overall !
The skeleton that we play is mega cute but I'm glad that he's already a skeleton, when I see the number of times I died playing this game
The gameplay is simple, but it just works so well, great work, but I didn't except less from you !
It just feels a bit weird when you jump, it is a bit hard to keep track on the obstacle with the sudden camera movement but it doesn't alter the quality of the game !
Also, I hope that I'll be part of the playtesting for your next games, but I'll forgive you on this one.
Keep it up ♥
Thank you so much bro
Don't worry for the playtest, I reserve only the best games for you <3
the skeleton is cute and the game itself is fun. The option that allows player to swing the cage and escape and continue to play is a great idea. I think the movement is a little bit too fast compared to other general platformer game I played before.
Thank you for your feedbacks !
I admit that I did not have much time to polish the movement mechanic, that would indeed need some revisions ^^'
This was such a good awesome game! I couldn't get too far because I'm not very good at platformers, but that is 100% on me! The art was super cute, and I actually laughed a lot with the computer's lines! Damn it and its 404 error screens!!! ò -ó9
But this looks amazing as far as I got!! Splendid job on it!!
Thank you so much ! I put a lot of effort in the story, so the fact that you appreciated the jokes and all is really appreciated ^^
Awesome game. Almost fishy that you managed to do this much in 7 days. 🤔
I really enjoyed the art style, looked really insane! And I bet if you would take more time and polish things out, it could be its own standalone steam game!
Some bugs i noticed, right in the start menu, there seems to be some z-flittering, and when you get jailed, you press escape and go back to the game, you can freely move around with an invisible hitbox, so you can just jump thought fire and everything without caring about nothing xD
All together, it is a solid game, I generally enjoyed the first few moments, reminded me of "There is no Game" :D Great job!
I definitely did all of this within 7 days ! I used Tarodev's player controller to have more time to focus on the story and the obstacles though, so this helped me gain quite some time ! Yet it also led to some boring bugs, because I struggled to understand some parts of his script ^^'
The z flittering in the menu was desired (I think) ! That was to show that the computer had already started to take control of the game :D
The jail bug, though, was absolutely not desired and is pretty boring as it completely prevents the player from triggering the rest of the stage's mechanics...
Thank you a lot for your review ! I will probably consider polishing it more and creating more stages to eventually publish it on steam, I would love it ^^ you could definitely do the same :p
Show post...
cool game, the visuals are pretty good and the idea is quite creative!
great job ;)
Thank you very much ! :D
The game is fun... I didn't manage to go all the way through yet... But the idea is great and the game is soooo enjoyable!
Thank you very much ! :D
The game is fun and I really liked the idea of making the computer talking. It was really hard for me to go past the canons but nice game ! Well done ^^
Thank you a lot !
Yes I'm sorry it's really not the easiest game ^^'
Don't worry I'll still be a fan of your games

Hey, Which game ?
Fateswap
Fatewap, is there any other way that I can better talk to you? email, whatsapp
Hi octojul i ned to talk to you, whats is your contact?
Feels like Super Meat Ball!
my guy, love the idea tbh, some bugs were annoying but overall it was enjoyable.
I experienced some performance issues in the rising acid level. and not gonna lie the visuals kinda hurt my eyes cuz they were glitching all over the place, but finishing the game gave me a sense of accomplishment.
Yes I'm really disappointed for the bugs, I would have loved to have enough time to polish everything and fix the boring bugs, but I had another game jam overlapping ^^'
Thank you a lot for your feedback ! :D
really hard game lol i can't go past the cannons, really liked the part where you pasuse and unpause and just go trough the ground, cool game
Thank you a lot ! :D
The game looks and sounds really good, controlling character is nice too.
But when I tried to do something while in jail I pressed Esc and the resumed. Invisible character fell from the cage and was invincible and constantly falljing through ground. And because of the theme I can't even say if this was intentional or not :)
Anyway, It was an enjoyable game!
Hey ! I'm really sorry for this bus... here you were supposed to use A and D keys to swing from left and right until you hit the ceiling !
I have experienced this bug and I thought it was fixed but i guess there is still a way to do this by respawning in the prison...
Anyway, thanks a lot for your review ! 😊
There are quite a lot of bugs, but its a great game!
Yes, unfortunately I started another game jam for my university on friday and I did not have a lot of time to fix all the bugs...
I hoped that by luck, people would avoid them 😅
What bug did you experience ?
I didn't know how it happened but, when I'm on the caged, I escaped it and the acid thinggy didn't kill me and just fall out of the world, also same thing happened, after youve entered the level, the stairs that lead downwards. When you've jumped over it, like not touching the kinda stair thinggy, the player will get stucked at the floor and after pressing some buttons, I fell out of the world again, the game overall is nice, its just that the level design like for the first level that have canons, its so hard for dumb like me to avoid it but its still a good game i like it, the kinda dialogue system i like it too. You did a great job!
Okay the bug with the cage is so boring it completely blocks from triggering anything anymore...
I thought I fixed it, bug it seems like it's possible to still trigger it by restarting the prison level... I'm really sorry for this, I did not have enough time to fix it :(
The bug when you become stuck in a block and fall afterwards is pretty boring too, but I used an asset's player controller, I guess I can only blame myself for not understanding how to use it. Maybe I could have avoided this by doing one especially for my game.
Thank you a lot for your feedback ! And thank you for appreciating the concept ! :)
The game is really great, so its a win win :D
