I had quite a lot of fun trying to figure out each level. The commentary was funny too and the timer kept it exciting. The jump height made it a little awkward to jump on some of the lower platforms but that may just be me. Good work!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'm really glad you enjoyed PHIL's commentary! ;)

I mostly agree with the points made by in Principle Games. Though, I would like to add that I didn't know how to figure out what the lies were. In the first level I could only get to the part pictured down below. The timer on the left is also quite unforgiving. Lastly, the time until restart is a bad design decision. It only detracts from the overall experience, rather than adds to it.

Developer

On that one there is a secret path inside the square you can only get in if you jump at the right height. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy the game! :(

Hopefully my feedback and the feedback of others will help you improve the game and make better games in the future. That's ultimately what this is all about.

I understand that you didn't like this game, however you gave us some really good feedback that we will make sure we take on board! Thank you.

Developer

I'm sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy our game. We worked really hard on it over the week, and this is only my second-ever Game Jam, so it's certainly not perfect! Do you have any positive feedback for the game? Was there anything you enjoyed or thought was done well?

This was a great game with lots of different puzzle like elements! I really liked the movement and how the sound effects. It took me ages to figure out that I could move those platforms with my mouse but then the timer ran out and when it reset the character was invisible for some reason. I'm not sure the big timer is really needed as the 10 second timer works perfectly by itself. Well done for making this in such a short time! :D

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! The big timer was a pretty last-minute decision, so we didn't get to test how long it should be with many people. And I was afraid that would happen with the mouse level!! I was hoping the word "mouse" in the dialogue would be a big enough hint, but alas, it may not have been. :/ Anyways, I'm really glad you liked the game! :)

Really enjoyed the controls and the feedback from movement in your game. Also enjoyed figuring out the right paths for each level. Great use of the theme and very good entry to the game jam.

Thanks for playing my game and giving feedback as well. 

Developer(+1)

No problem! Your game was really great, and if you don't mind I might try to promote it a bit. It really deserves more ratings! :)

Also, I'm really happy you liked our game! Thanks a ton for playing!

The sounds of this game are very nice and the level design are challenging an fun. The jump system don't respond very well and make the game even harder, but it's a nice game.

Developer (2 edits)

I'm sorry the jumping didn't work well. I'm glad you enjoyed the level design and music though, especially since I did a lot of that! ;)

Developer

If you played the web version then it is a little bit weird when jumping. I think it's better in the download version. There are also less bugs in the download version than the web. I agree though, the jumping isn't the best.

Fun game! Enjoyed the humor and the fact that you have to look for ways to break the game.

Developer

Thanks so much for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted(+2)

I love it, it plays really well and the narration as well as gameplay are super fun! I beat the cake level because I read the hint before even starting the game so I don't know if I would have beatin it without the hint but the "puzzle" feels very random while all the others make sense so you might want to tweak that level a bit. Overall it's super good though, well done!

Developer

Thanks! The original idea was that the cake was a lie (get it?) so the player has to chase it around, but that didn't get conveyed very well in the actual game. I'm glad you still liked the game though!

Developer(+1)

UPDATE: I have added a hint for the cake level in the description for anyone who gets stuck there! :)

Submitted(+2)

Very nice entry, cool idea! I I'm not sure how to beat the pie level but it was fun.

Developer

Thanks! The cake level is probably one of the hardest on there. It was originally super easy but of course I made it way too hard... I'm glad you still enjoyed what you got through!

Submitted(+2)

I reached the pie level but couldn't beat it D:

After some tries my player was invisible on that level and reaching the end didn't complete it.

For the rest, it was cool and the controls felt nice!

Developer

I'm so sorry about the invisible player! Maybe he just wanted to be a lie. ;) I'm glad you enjoyed the rest of the game. Thanks so much for playing!

Liked the art and Phil's voice! Though I think the timer should reset when you die.

Also there was a bug where I couldn't see my player. 

(Probably has something to do with the player's z value)

Developer

Oh no!! Was the player invisible the whole game or was it only after a certain point?

Submitted(+2)

quick question. is the last level actually beatable?

Developer(+1)

yes, it is. If you are referring to the last level before the boss levels, then try sprinting by holding left shift. If you meant the last level overall, then you just have to do the opposite to what you did the first time

Submitted(+3)

I really liked how much time you put on level designs! really god job. I enjoyed it.

it would be much better to show full text when we press space instead of skipping it. so one space shows full text the next one skips. this way if the player doesnt want to wait too long they can still read the whole text

Developer(+1)

Great idea! That was the original plan until we ran short on time and decided to keep it as it is.

Submitted(+2)

Cool game - voice and story were very well done. Controls were nice and responsive too.
Good job!

Developer(+2)

I'm glad you liked the story! DefineDoddy did our amazing PHIL voice. ;)

Submitted(+2)

I like the simplistic design - the controls are very responsive too. Congrats

Developer

Thanks a ton! We originally used a rectangle for our player as a sort of placeholder, but he worked out pretty well so we kept him! :)

Submitted(+2)

Nice art style and the voice is very good. I think I saw something similar in "Will You Snail" by Jonas Tyroller. When you have time, please rate my game and live a feedback! Thank you and keep creating!

Developer(+1)

Haha thanks! DefineDoddy did the voice and Jonas was his inspiration, so I'm glad you noticed it! I'll check your game as soon as I get the chance!

Submitted(+1)

Haha! I knew it! Thanks bro, can't wait your opinion!

Developer

I just looked and I'm afraid I won't be able to play your game. I can only do browser or Mac downloads... I'm so sorry!

Submitted

There is a link in the comments for Mac users.

Someone really wanted to see and I made a build for Mac

Nice game! Would've been nice if the timer restarted each time you died though. Still, good job!

Developer

Thanks so much! That's why we made clicking R reset the timer. That way, if you're stuck on a level you can reset the timer so it doesn't run out!
