Nice audio and visuals. Had an issue where the yellow ball wouldn't reset, but other than that I like it. Well done! :D
Thank you - and thanks for the feedback too. Weird that the ball wouldn't reset! I experienced that once with the green box, but was never able to replicate it to figure out what was going on. Once the jam is done, I will try to tighten everything up.
I checked out your game and rated it too!
Cool game and really like the visuals. The first groundworm was dope XD
Oh and would really appreciate if you would check out mine :)
Thank you! I checked yours out and rated it too. The mechanic of having to pay for movements and jumps is really neat! I tend to play platformers very cautiously (clicking a lot), so that was a habit I had to unlearn very quickly, haha! Very solid idea.
Haha that was the plan! I used to do the same.. So it hurt me and my teammate to carefully play it.. making the levels was really fun though!
Thank you so much for your compliments! Really means a lot and helps boost our confidence! :)
I like the idea and the visuals. The music is fitting also really nice.
The only thing that bothered me a little was , that I had to restart, as soon as I made a mistake with the boxes or the ball.
Anyways, good job :D
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback! I'm considering some ways to fix that, like a pull mechanic or the ability to reset just one item at a time. Glad you enjoyed the game!
Yours is fun (and I rated it), but I wasn't able to get very far! (That's just me needing to get better at fast-paced platformers, though) I liked how you had obstacles suddenly appear. The music was nice as well!
Had a fun time playing your game! Very similar to my game in terms of the end scenes. Rated 4 Star!!
Thank you! I like the cutscenes in yours... at least, the two I died on, lol. The art style is nice too! (Rated yours as well :) )
That's a really smart game, I had to think for a while before figuring out that there were only one big scene (trying not to spoil to much there x) )
I had to restart a couple times because i messed up with the boxes... It became a little less interesting the third time I went trough the beginning.
Great concept though !
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback! The boxes were a little tricky. I'm thinking after the jam I'll implement a way to reset just one color of object since some of them can only work once.
good game and like the concept
Thank you very much!
Cool and fun game. Rated.
Thank you! I rated yours too, very creepy. I won but I only had a tiny bit of health left! Very nice considering you guys did it in 2 and a half days.
Looks and runs solid. I lol'ed the first time that earthworm attacked. Great animation
Haha, thank you! I was hoping that would be a nice surprise for players.
I checked out and rated your game too. Very polished graphics and music! I had a little difficulty with the controls, but you've got a solid concept there.
Great game, but it could surprise the small children LOL
Heh, I suppose it could... But then again, surprisingly small kids love FNaF, so I'm not sure they can even be scared anymore!
I checked out your game and rated it. I didn't get very far, unfortunately - kept getting eaten by ghosts! But that was a pretty wild retro trip!
Nice one! yeah, levels are cool!
Thank you! I checked yours out and rated it as well. Great work, I liked the music especially!
Clever levels :) The amount of times I got eaten by that eyeless beast is embarrassing.
Nice work making this game! I can see you put huge amounts of effort in :) Looking forward to seeing what else you make in the future
YEAH RIGHT (I Jumped down anyway)
Spoilers:
I got stuck after this section, It seems I can only jump down but it spawns me at the first level (all other deaths give you the option to retry, so maybe this isn't a death?). I get the feeling the "Up is down hint" might elude to needing to fall to hit that yellow sparkle at the beginning?
Ahh, thank you! You were very close to solving it. I don't want to give too much away, but as a hint, you're right in thinking you didn't die when you "escaped". :) Otherwise, I'll be putting up a dev log that includes a full playthrough over on YouTube sometime in the next few days.
I'll check your game out!
Nice main character and monsters! Couldn't figure much out, though.
Not to worry, glad you liked the characters! I'll check your game out too. :)
Thanks! I'm sorry if the movement feels odd, it's hard to make a fully functioning FPS controller by yourself, without spending a lot of time on it!
Not to worry! It was fine once I got the hang of it. The narrator was quite funny!
