Hi!

I just saw that your game as only very few ratings and i suggest that if you play and rate my game, i will play and rate your game, too!

Just leave a short message once you have rated my game and i will play and rate your game within 72 hours, promised!

Best

it was fun to play once you get the hang of it, though was repetitive after beating it once, if the item placement were randomised it'd been more fun imo. 

Died a few times in at the start cause i didnt know what to do, after getting a hang of it I could beat the game. I thought there were 3 glass fragments and was searching for the 3rd one for quite some time lol, my best time was around 10 seconds on this game. 

Absolutely loved the art, imo that was the best part of this game.

Thanks for the feedback Nehalkun! :D

Yeah definitely having some randomization would increase replay-ability and interest!
I gotta learn more about Autoloads, Scene Managers, and just generally game stop/ start functions to better pace a game to give players a beat to read and get a hang. I attempted a few tries at making those in the code of the game but I couldn't get it to work in time 😅

Definitely something to look into further before the next jam!

And thanks! Learning Aesprite animation and sprite sheets for this jam was super fun! Glad you loved the art! :D

Thank you so much for playing our first prototype! :D
