very nicely done - the changes in view and movement directions was a good touch.

It's a different perspective on the theme of this jam, and i like it! I think you were ingenious with this idea, they way you've applied it and the mechanics of the game.

It's a well thought out game, and i think you've done a good job!

Very nice game! The pipes remind me of the old Windows 95 screen saver. Camera angles were very nice too! The story is fun to follow and the mechanics were pretty intuitive. Overall fun submission!

Cool! A little hard at the beginning but once you get the hang of it, given time, I think it is nice. I enjoyed that the landing sounds were randomized. Nice colours. As mentioned, key to complete the text would be nice.

Loved the small cutscenes. The visuals felt nostalgic and theme was executed really well. Great Job

I really loved your game. When I was a child and saw some screensavers, my thought was to be able to "play inside" these screensavers. And this game did just that.

In my opinion, some games can be considered art because they cause emotion and a good feeling. And this game did just that. I was really excited about the ending. For me, it's 5/5 as it was a pleasant surprise. Congratulations!

Really good job on this game, it was a bit hard to wrap my brain around the view switching but i really liked the concept and i love that it was inspired by a screensaver. i remember the one.

Great effort. Liked how his hat popped up when jumping. The only thing I would change is the option to skip dialogue.
