I think you're off to a good start! I like the splash screen - reading the comments you didn't spend much time on the art, so thumbs up for producing something that cool.
I think there's room for improvement for the platformer mechanics - I think some acceleration / deceleration would give it a nicer feel. Check out that post by Zack Bell - he's my go-to reference for any game making programming! https://zackbellgames.com/2014...
Music is sweet too!
I really like the atmosphere of this game, the artstyle is very unique (I love the main character he looks like those old '90s Nickelodeon characters, very awesome!) The controls are sharp and setup really well and responsively. I really like where this is going, the trading in souls for satanic cash is a really cool concept. Lots of potential with this one, I can't wait to see more! Great job!!!
Nice snappy platformer controls! Looking forward to seeing where this one goes!
Hey thanks all! Working on getting the basic idea and some actual animation up and running now, so it's at least more of a game.
No SoundCloud, wonderingmonster, I just noodle around - maybe time to make one. This whole jam has bee a great kick me in the butt experience :)
Covert art and music was really nice, do you have a Soundcloud or something like that?
Loved the idea. Looking forward to the post-jam game. :D
The character design is very nice. I played through this a couple times but i didn't see any currency building up. I like the mechanic of collecting souls to trade for better things. Nice work so far.
Loved the art, sound, and music. The sound made if feel satisfying to grab some of those little demons! Although there is not much depth to the game I could see this being a great game if you continued to work on it!
The presentation in the start and the main character design is by far the best of it. The game play however seems to be very simple? I read your game description page so I understand a lot is missing, sadly to much for me to say its very entertaining. The idea you described is however promising if you ever continue. Keep it up!
You missed an opportunity to make that little guys legs move by copying the sprite and just moving the legs in the copy. ;) Fun game though, I liked the art.
@collider: My weakest link is the art (and I'm an artist! lol but not digital) -- I'm a programmer. We should've teamed up! #nexttime

Thanks Sabiarts! Programming is my weakest link, so I spent very little time on the art, but glad you liked it. I'll definitely try to tweak this into a more playable game over the next few days, and for you, I'll make a decent tile set!
I liked the logo and characters, nice work. The camera is good too and if you put the same effort you did on the logo and characters at the background too, it would be awesome!
