Did you think nobody would notice that you added a whole game?
Fun tho, you can jump and stick to wall in the shop

Also, a lot of reach on the attack

Nice platformer. Really tough on time. I like that you were able to add a lot of cool abilities but wish there was a way to replenish time. The levels feel pretty solid though a lot of tough long jumps. I like how the jumps are mostly uniform, thus letting players get used to them. The attack has a super large hitbox and a tiny sword, little funny but might want to check that, haha. Adding jump or a different action to right click might be nice, else there isn't a big reason for the mouse to be used during platforming.

Hi, thanks for playing our game! You can replenish time by killing enemies and completing stages ( both giving you 10 seconds each ), admittedly though we should've probably put that in the "how to play" section of our description lol, hope this helps and thanks for the feedback! :)

Ahhhh, I didn't notice that. I started to skip the enemies because I didn't think there was a need. I do understand the wish not to explain every little thing and I purposely didn't state everything in my game. I wish I had noticed that on my own. I was thinking of implementing a small "+X Time " popup but didn't get around to it, something like that when killing an enemy might be great for you and then you wouldn't have to explain it.

Feels like a complete game. I don't know how you people manage to create complete games in game jams xd I keep over reaching and end up with half baked prototypes

The secret is to sit in your chair for the full 36 hours and don't sleep, eat or shower lol

Very clever idea!! Really neat concept! One of the  games I've spent the most time playing!

Developer

We're glad you enjoyed it! :D

Looks really nice, and the concept is very interesting. Congrats!

I think I ran into a bug: I couldn’t sell back abilities during a level. They showed up on the vendor popup, but clicking them did nothing.

Developer

Hi, thank you for playing our game! Yeah, sadly we ran into that bug about 5 minutes before submission but we wanted to get the game done and posted before the deadline so we had to leave it in unfortunately. Glad you still enjoyed the game! :) - ScottishChicken

Exceptional art, very nice effects and a clever idea. The mood of the whole game is just very cool and I like the level design a lot. If you want to work on this game in the future, I'd recommend to add sound effects and some kind of in-game tutorial / instructions. Good luck in the jam!

Developer

Hello! Thank you for the kind words, it means a-lot, we were originally planning on adding a tutorial but sadly due to the time constraints, that idea slowly became less realistic. However, we have posted a small guide on how to play the game in the description on the itch page so we hope that will help to clear up any confusion to new players! Thanks again :) - ScottishChicken
