Oh wow, really interesting style you managed to do here. I love these sorts of environments. The game is honestly solid. Love the narration especially, good job.

Minor complains would be stuff like UI being a bit over the place. Also the player feels very short which makes the beam difficult to aim sometimes. The shroom powerups are unclear about their effect. Not sure how I’d fix it, but currently you just pick them up and hope they last long enough. Most of this can be easily excused by it being a jam, and you focused on everything that’s actually important which was the right decision imo

Nice atmosphere and controls. Good work buddy! :)

This is really interesting and evocative. Great cut scene at the start. The gameplay is interesting, the music and sound design is great. I don't want to admit how long it took me to find my way out the first room!!  Nice work on your game!

The graphics invoke nostalgia for me and I enjoyed the relaxed/explorative gameplay. Very nice game! Really coolio cutscene as well and general onboardiing.

I loved this game! Nice jump puzzle experience. I enjoyed the mystical mushroom feels. The jump sound is very satisfying. Dynamic music would make this game even better!

Very nice game ^^ I liked it, played it till the end. The fact that you have an intro is great! Liked this narration part a lot. Easy to understand mechanics, nice color coding for ressources, clear goal.

Very cool idea, I liked the narration and story a lot. I didnt finish it on the video unfortunately as it was running too long and I had to leave but I will be going back to finish and find the end of the story. I played it on my youtube and you can check it here with my thoughts as i played. Great game.

The first narration was wonderful!

Took me 15 minutes to get out lol.

Amazing game. It was very fun and chill to explore the world and complete the quests. Easily one of my favorites.

I played your game on stream but when I wanted to give a rating my internet bombed out. 
I used my phone to connect and give you a rating. Screenshot of the rating and link to the stream below.
Luckily the stream caught the full playthrough. Great game.

Love the visuals, it was a very pleasant space to explore. I loved the sense of speed and height you could get and maintain with the mushrooms, zooming around was so satisfying.

Looks Great!

It is really cool! 

I relly liked the cutscene at the beginning, and the world looks very good!

I struggle with the platforming a little bit but it is really cool game!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Glad you liked it!! Sorry about the platforming. I'm curious though, were you using sprint and collecting alot of mushrooms to get high/far jumps? 

Submitted(+1)

you got me at magic mushrooms.
but honestly great outerworldly vibes. reminded me of scifi old 3d scifi games like outcast.

aiming felt a little of, possibly because the beam wasn't always aligned  to the crossair, maybe? also vertical mousemovement was strangle slow.
all in all one of my favourite entris so far.

Developer

I could definitely tweak the beam a bit more, but that mouse one is interesting. Seems to act differently on different peoples mouses

A very chill game nicely made.

I really like the implementation of the theme. I had a good time playing it.

I loved the visuals. The particle effects were nice and the scene was pretty. It took a little while for me to realize there was a door but once I figured that out the rest was pretty self-explanatory

Glad you enjoyed it and were able to figure things out!

It's a really pretty scene. I like the chill music, too. The controls were a little difficult - it felt like I was so close to the ground and the gravity just felt off. I really struggled to get over to rocks leading up to the cave.

Great work!

Developer

Quick question for my own learning purposes, but were you sprinting, and popping yellow/green mushrooms to gain speed/jump increases? My idea was to make moving around the map feel fast and floaty. If you grab enough mushrooms in a short time the jumps between rocks become fairly easy. If that wasn't clear I'll probably have to think of a way to better present that to the player 🤔 Thank you for playing and giving your feedback though!
