Neat story! Short but very enjoyable and engaging. Lovely pixel art, great dialogue system and really cool way to jump into the platform challenges.
Awesome job!
Lovely art style, and I enjoy the whole "jumping into thought bubbles" concept a lot, they're fun little challenges. The characters are appealing and it's cool that different actions can end up changing what results.
The level with the girl dancing outside Gooby's was so hard, but so satisfying to beat. The graphics and music put in me in mind of Toe Jam & Earl for Sega Genesis, which I loved. Well done!
That was a... curious entry, but not without charm, I have to admit!
Good job :)
Very nice story and graphics! The music and sound effects were a nice match :-)
Really sweet story. The trippy background for the platforming parts is cool. Atmospheric in a cozy way, I enjoyed it!
I really liked the sprites, the way the dude’s hair moved was pretty cool! It was really nice to see some characters with personality, and using the platforming sections to change people’s mind was really cool! The multiple endings offers some nice replayability
Well I made it to the show. Not bad.
If you like platformers, please try our game.
I really liked the jumping into thoughts concept and the story and gameplay was interesting. As other commenters have said, I think the theme interpretation was lacking, but the presentation and execution were really well done.
What it lacks in theme interpretation, it makes up for in personality. Fun to play, made me replay just to not miss out on other funny encounters and funny bit of dialogue. Enticing storytelling seeps out of a bunch of pixels
Fun game to play! I found two different endings, and the little micro-levels are enjoyable.
Parents, don't trust your kids.
Enjoyed the game, but wish it had more to do with the theme. Awesome art and sound! Gave me Scott Pilgrim game vibes.
Dripping with character and personality! I absolutely love how you took a simple platforming concept and turned it into such a charming game. A lot of the characters are instantly memorable and when the game ended I wished there was more. The world felt like a really interesting place and I wanted to explore more of it. I'll be playing again to try for the other endings.
The artwork and music are superb. The characters all have very distinct looks and the environments are very well done. Extremely high quality and well polished for a jam game! The platforming felt a little difficult at first but once I understood it, it was really fun and interesting. The dash mechanic added a surprising amount of depth and complexity and I loved it! The platforming sections themselves were well designed too.
The little narratives and story arcs made a world of difference to the overall feel of the game. The more I played the invested I felt in my little guy. Really amazing work!
Wow that was really cool, nice concept mixing platformer and story based components. Art was great, story was interesting!
I personally like games where there's some sort of abstract/surreal thing going on.
And you, my friend, have made something unique in that regard.
One of the few games that kept me engaged till the end!
The atmosphere was superb and really caught the "night-life" feel of a city.
I will come back and see if I can find the other endings.
thanks :)
This game caught me off guard. At first it wasn't doing much for me, but then I jumped into the first person's.... mind(?) and the style really just clicked. Can't say I totally understand WHY or WHAT I was doing in each of them, but it is a really cool mixup of gameplay and story. Audio and everything melded together very well here. The story is short, but it's cool to see the full thing play out. It has a sort of A Short Hike kind of atmosphere going. Really cool entry.
Gameplay: I really feel like the story and the platformer parts are put into one game really well. I loved both elements.
Graphics: The graphics were good. I liked the pixely people and the pink mind areas.
Audio: Did you make like 15 songs? Well however many I heard I thought they all fit with the part they were for.
Innovation: Ive never seen a game with this idea good job
Theme: I guess its a moonshot to get the tickets?
Overall: Amazing game, the more I played the more impressed I was. Great Job!!
Can you try my game?
thanks! and it was 4 songs, but the main song is broken into 8 layers and they play depending on what part of the world you are in
The vibe is off this world. Really cool idea. The think bubbly level thing is sooo amazing. Soundtrack is great. The Artwork is sooo cute. Really enjoyed it. Props for my man Johnny Bravo in the Bus scene ^^ Good job mate.
thanks! and i'm just now realizing i made a Johnny Bravo look-a-like
Super fun to play, responsive movement, loved the idea of the platforming being in their thoughts and the alternate endings- I accidentally missed the cool kid on the bus my first play through, so it was a nice surprise to see that it changed the course of the story. My only nitpick might be that the ball collecting is a little too frame perfect -sometimes half of my face would be touching the ball (incuding hair) but wouldn't collect it- but other than that fantastic.
thanks for playing! and thank you for your feedback :)
