Well done. I don't have the coordination anymore for platformers, but it was fun.

Here's mine: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-8/rate/1675396

Thank you!

EDIT: I see now that your game is Windows only, so I'm sorry but I can not play it - I use a Mac :(

Very fun game! I love the speed, it sticks you on the screen to finish the level

Developer

Thank you! :)

HOW DOES THIS NOT HAVE MORE REVIEWS/RATINGS?

Highly addictive gameplay, fantastic sound, a clever meta-narrative, and graphics that simply work to serve the formerly mentioned qualities.  It's the kind of game every game dev wants to make.

Also, outstanding job on the mechanics! Frustrating at first with a clean difficulty curve is extremely tough to hone in a game like this -- but it's here in this game. I'll be recommending this to others simply for the rewarding challenges herein.

If anyone deserves to win a chocolate factory, it's this game -- it's both seemingly humble but layered with a genius quality that cannot be ignored. Well done.

P.S. I'd be super honored if you considered playing my game for this jam and letting me know what you think.

You made my day!!! Thank you for the super encouraging comment. I'm happy you liked it!

Most of the things you wrote down I had in mind when creating the game and I'm delight to see it worked :)

Sadly regarding your game I couldn't run it, might be because I use a MAC? If it should work on a MAC let me know and I'll try to find a way around this.

Once again, thanks a bunch!

No worries, Guy -- hopefully, we can make a future version of the game available for Mac.

I hope more people come across this game. This is by far the best game I've tried in the jam. The narrative with the meta layer got me hooked from the beginning. The game mechanics feel frustrating but it makes sense in the context of the game. The music goes very well with the game

excellent work

Wow, what a heartwarming comment!

Thanks a bunch. Much appreciated!
