I really liked that transition between dimensions! Little difficult to move around, but I still enjoyed it!
It's difficult to gauge what to do and where to go. I'd like to better see around my character a little better. They seem to be stuck at the bottom of the screen. I liked the screen-flipping mechanic. Good job.
Cool game. I like the art of the character and the overworld especially.
There is something nice about this ghost and its origin. The setting and style fits. The blocks are a bit surprising and I am unsure where to go to. A bit of dynamic camera work could do wonders.
Ah yes, you need to go to the right and then jump off the edge of the map to visit the underworld. I guess that isn’t very clear.
Thanks for the feedback though!
I think if you work on the game a good fun game will come out of it. Now this is a good prototype. I liked the mechanics and the music. Great job!
Thanks, we had a great time making it! I would love to continue to work on this game, so I might release some updates after the jam is over.
Thanks for the feedback!
A good start to something.
I did, after a few confusing goes, manage to catch and release a few fireflies!
Is there a win scenario or do you just loop forever?
We ran out of time so it loops forever, I think technically you can win since we made a winning fireflies variable, but set it to 100 million so you would have to be pretty dedicated…
Thanks for the feedback though, I hope you enjoyed!
I like the concept. Its a bit hard to know where to go or where blocks are going to show up next. Overall fun game and the music was great. Good Job
Thanks for the feedback!
Hey cool concept but you need to let the player more thing in perspective, its hard to know where to go. Good job nonetheless!
Thanks, means a lot! Trying to let the player know what to do was one of our bigger struggles, so we just added the tutorial and some arrows last minute. I think a more involved tutorial would have helped the game make more sense, but we ran out of time.
Thanks for the feedback though!
