Not the kind of game I'd normally play so I'm not sure how much useful feedback I can give, but really enjoyed it! I like the art and music a lot, and I think everything did a good job of setting the mood and telling the story.
I like how pressing Space makes you do a microscopic jump
Great game!
Thank you! I figured that many players might expect a jump button. But Mr. Philips Videopac is much too poised to be seen jumping, and he's recovering from a knee injury more slowly than he'd hoped.
What a lovely little gem. Superb music and a very moody story. Love it!
Thank you, and thank you for hosting! I felt very inspired by this jam theme and cover choice.
Superb take on the PickAxePete cover. It is such an odd character to have marketing a game, obviously they changed it pretty sharpish. But he feels quite fresh on modern eyes. I wanted to capture him in my game by playing on him being kind of desperate, pathetic and a bit inept, but also wily, somehow always close to the prize.
Thank you! The cover really is evocative, I can see why we all picked it.
