Somehow my record as a bird is 2 seconds lol

I liked it a lot! The story, graphics and music are fun, it's just missing a way to skip cutscenes

Developer

glad to hear you enjoyed the game! yeah in hindsight we should of added that. Thank you for playing!

Submitted

I laugh at the story, it is great! When the man hopes for a better life the next time he reincanate and then he shows up like a chicken it was one of the funnest moments I had on this jam. Well done!

Developer

Beautiful pixel art and old tube TV effect! How did you get that effect? 

Developer(+1)

thank you for playing the game! its actually Unity Post Processing we added some Glow, Vignette, and Motion Blur mostly but it does have a curve effect too to make it look like an old warped TV kinda like the ones you would play old school mario on =D

Thanks for explaining. I'll have to make a little sandbox to experiment with these things.

Reached the Flappy Bird section, died after flapping just once

I forgor to change it a long time ago

Submitted

The blur might be a little too much, and the text speed in the cutscenes is painful XD.  100% should add the ability to skip the text animation when clicking 
Its a good funny little game (also, it feels impossible to stay alive after hitting the 30sec XD)

Developer(+1)

lol yeah fair criticism the skipping was a feature we ran out of time to implement and well my personal record is 66 seconds and 56 for bird so its definitely possible top go further

(+1)

pls make the cutscenes skippable or faster. Overall the game was really fun and fit the theme really well! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the review. Yes in hindsight they should of been skippable but we didn't want people to miss the meaning of the game. glad you enjoyed otherwise! =)

Amazing take on the theme man!

Developer

Submitted

Very nice! Simple gameplay but it’s well made, there really is a sense of speed, you really feel like the game accelerate the more you play.

Developer(+1)

Submitted

very interesting approach on the topic of jam, a good and understandable mini-plot
Developer

thank you for playing! =)

Submitted

wow what an amazing sound effects and am just curious, did you made them . I like the game


would you try out mine and rate it according

Developer

hey thanks for the kind words. a couple of the sound effects were made or captured by us but most came from either freesound.org or SFXR. and sure we will check out your game

Submitted

Oh my gosh I love everything about this game. Especially the chicken's sound effect. I love all the sound effect and graphics, and everything just screams cuteness. You incorporated 2 simple game into a well incorporated theme. motion-blur is a nice touch. Didn't expect the next life when I died as a chicken. High rating! 

Developer

Thank you so much for the kind words! im glad to hear u enjoyed the game =D ill make sure to check your game out too at some point!

Cool game, really liked the narrative storytelling and the isometric angle of the old man in bed was amazing!

Developer

Thanks really appreciate it really wanted to push that story while just being funny thanks for playing

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

Nice game! It kind of reminds me of the mario party mini games, but you kind of overdid the post processing. I think it would be a great game with more minigames!

Developer

Well glad you enjoyed and yeah more animals and minigames would have been added iof we had more time we just wanted a nice rounded off game for the jam. glad you enjoyed

Submitted(+1)

great game, I thought it was a story game until the old man turned into a chicken, very funny.

Developer

Yeah we wanted to push that story but also just have a funny aspect top the whole reincarnation and new beginning. glad you enjoyed

Submitted(+1)

This was a funny little game. The gameplay is simple and fun. A bit of the text did not have time to be showmen before the next part of the dialog shows, but okay it was not a big issue. Overall a good jam game. Well done.

Developer(+1)

Hi thanks yeah didnt realise that text part little bug but glad you enjoyed
