A platformer that restarts when you die. Doesn't matter which level you die in. Back to the beginning with you. I never got past level 3. I had no intention of redoing level 1 for the 10th or so time. In my opinion this is a terrible design decision that alienates a substantial slice of your potential audience.

In order to stick to the theme, this game places invisible hazards all over the place. These will cause many death (plus restart for good measure) until you learn the level and eventually beat it.

The character controller has height modulation for jumping, but no grace jump. I didn't see any precision jump sections, so this isn't a big deal.

The art is a little inconsistent. The BG and FG look charming and stylish and consistent. However, the character an enemies look like they have a different art style.

The music loop is very short, so it's pretty repetitive. The footstep sound is both loud and deep. I found it uncomfortable to listen to with headphones on.

This is a game that dislikes its player. I'm afraid the feeling is mutual.

Sorry you didnt enjoy it! 

We meant to implement checkpoints so you dont restart, but run out of time for the jam. 

We are hesitant to changing the game now (is that even allowed?) but planning to update it soon after the jam is complete. 

Submitted

You can't make changes now. That's how the competition works. My suggestion is, make sure if you make another game like this in future, include checkpoints as a high priority item. Full restarts are a serious turnoff for many many users.

Developer

Thank you for the your suggestion and feedback.

Nice game! I like the touch of audio when the character moves. It/s a little too bassy, might just need to be turned down a little. But I enjoyed your game. I like puzzle platformers and I think you did a good job! 

I'd love your thoughts on my game. It's a platformer as well. :)

Developer

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

Will have a look at your game asap!

Love the idea. Checkpoints would've made the game way better.

I think I would've finished it if there were those.

Great art, great idea, great music.

Developer

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! 

We were planning to do checkpoints but run out of time!!! 
Will implement (with more levels) and update though

I like the idea, the implementation and the game itself, but I'm missing some checkpoints, it was tedious having so start from the first level at some points. Other than that, cool!

Developer

Fair enough! We run out of time for the jam but planning to implement checkpoints with some more levels and update soon!

Awesome game, super impressed by the artistic direction, and a clever twist on the theme. Well done!

Developer

Thank you so much! Pleased by how it turned out as we were really close on-time!

Hi! Sorry I couldn't play your game. I got "Your browser does not support any of the required graphics API for this content." message in browser and resolution error on Windows... But as far as I can see on the screenshots you did a great job using color mechanic! I'm into color mechanics very much.

Developer(+1)

Oh sorry to hear that! Not sure why but we will look into this asap!

The concept of the game changing a lot with the color of the lights is very good! The sounds fit perfectly! Good job, I really liked this one!

Developer

Thank you so much! We were really anxious about the music as we don't usually make it ourselves but happy with how it turned out!

Love the art of the game - you could seriously consider making an indie game like this because that is really good :)

Developer

You are too kind!!

Overall a solid experience. I didn't really like the soundtrack. The game was fun. Interesting concept.

loved the concept of the game! level design was pretty good, and the changing lights to change the enviroment was cool :) i had fun xD

Submitted(+1)

Art is cool ... very good... Music is cool but repetitive..

Also if you die ... you go all the way back to start...You could restart the level only when you die... Good game btw. 

Check out my game too and rate it...
