Wonderful game! It's a bit intimidating at first because of the unpredictability, but I got the hang of it and ended up loving every bit of it! Great effort, wish you all the best! <3

Very well made, though I can't say it's my kind of game... I think I quit even earlier than most hahaha. A shame, I was curious after being teased about the ending... or was that a lie? ;)

Developer (1 edit)

No that's not a lie  :P ... Ending is very good :D

Edit: Thanks for playing my game :)

Oh this game is very frustrating! By the way nice entry! The intro screen was Dope! and a very good choice in music!

Thank you :)

Your game is wonderful. It has a story, vibrant graphics, beautiful background music and lovely gameplay.

Developer

Thanks mate :)

Ok, I'm sort of angry at myself for not thinking of the Stranger Things idea myself. LOL! Very nice! It would be really cool if the logo and chapter titles animated like the show did. 

I did however find the game play a little difficult that I had to remember where the traps were, with no real element to use as reference points. Meaning, there were traps along a long platform that you had to remember the distance along that blank space. (I hope that makes sense.)  So having references to where the traps are would cut down a bit on the guessing. 

Although I like your concept a lot. Our game is actually super similar to yours. LOL!

Other than that, very nice entry! I rated it well. I'd love to hear your thoughts on our game. :)

Yeah ... The logo was bit rushed due to less time ... I had thought of the Stranger things logo...but alas ! thanks for being the first to recognize ST reference. LOL!!

I played and rated yours  already :D

Elo, mlg pro here, so i played the game and i'm gonna comment about it now. The game is chill with its cool graphics and very Awesome music, awesome with a capital a there. But the movement feels a bit unresponsive, maybe its an artistic choice but meh. And it doesn't really fit the jam. The game isnt lying there are just some invisible spikes in the levels and you have to get past em. Tbh the levels are too hard and while its true i didn't play all the way i can see that the levels wont be getting easier from level 1 right? At this point i cant tell.. this jam is weird lol. Anyways good job on the game now im gonna go and sleep. Kudos!

I'm usually not a big fan of this kind of games but since there was an interessting story, I made it until the end.

The music is great and it prevent from ragequitting because it's very calm, the graphics are good ! Chapter 3 is my favourite haha !

Nice game !

Developer

You have talent for game design! 

Developer

Thanks :) Do rate it :D

The game is fun to play but I only managed to reach the 2nd chapter and kept dying. The game control was smooth. Visuals was good. The music was excellent. Overall a good game to play.

Developer

Thank you :)

Submitted(+1)

The way you did use the theme here is super frustrating, I had no fun dying in chain to try to guess where could be a platform or a trap. This is sad, since the game has some potential.

I like the overall ambience of the game tho.

Developer

I am happy you liked the ambience :)

Submitted(+1)

I could not figure it out and kept dying. I did like the simple art style:). https://itch.io/jam/cgj/rate/476728

Thanks mate :D

Fun game overall. Great presentation! The sound was so on point! 

Developer

Thank you ^^

Interesting idea, really good art, but I got stuck on one level so sadly couldn't finish whole game. Great work.

Developer

Thanks man :)

I like the idea of relaxing piano music vs spikes everywhere.  :D 

Developer

Thank you :)

Submitted(+1)

I'm sorry but I rage quite. I'm old and dying that many times that close together reminds me of how old and feeble I am. That said, great adherence to the theme and I liked the piano music. 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback ^^

+1 for the old ass demographic 😝

Developer

lol XD

Haha,  I personally didn't have the patience for this type of Mario platforming fail game, but the theme definitely fits.  The controls feel smooth.  The animations between levels are great!

Developer

Thans mate :D
