Wow, what a great premise! I was jamming along to the very catchy tune (felt purposefully oppressively optimistic?) while awaiting my inevitable doom haha. It took me a few tries to stop plummeting / getting lost, so I wonder how you can tie in more straightforward onboarding (even mentioning the controls, like how to physically collect trash and throw it into the furnace).

Ah, thank you so much for playing, and your thoughts on our little game. I have problems myself progressing haha, will think about how to make it easier for the player for sure.

broooo that soundtrack 🔥🔥🔥 reminds me of super mario 64 (esp. since this is a 3D platformer), or the nintendogs competition music lmao. something you should know, the music didn't loop for me! I wish it did bc I was jammin.

the gameplay was a bit of a learning curve. it wasn't obvious to me what I was supposed to do right away, and the controls don't feel the most intuitive. moving with WASD, using the mouse to control the camera, and jumping with the spacebar feels off for some reason (I guess since there's so much coordination required in the player's left hand). I didn't progress much unfortunately.

Thank you so mutch for liking my tune! I didn't make the song loopable because you were ment to survive for 3 minutes (just as long as the song is). So when the song is over, the level is over. I can deffinetly make a loopable version and put it on my youtube channel tho.

It's a great tune, agreed :D Thank you for playing and your feedback!

Had a little trouble progressing but seems like you had a cool start to an idea here with the furnace + platforming :)

I think you need to provide the controls for this one - I didn’t figure out more than WASD and space and wasn’t really able to do anything at all :( I liked the music a lot, although I think a game set in a lava bowl probably needs something darker than clarinet :-)

We absolutely agree, so hard to know what to prioritize when time closes in. We appreciate you took the time to try it and thanks for your feedback!

I couldn't figure out how to progress in the game, after the first platform the fuel always went out. It was quite hard to jump between platforms. The music is great, the game looks good. The idea sounds really cool. Seems there is a lot of room for improvement!

Yes, we had absolutely zero time for level design, but so glad to hear you liked many aspects of it! Thank you for playing!
