Wow! One of the more underrated games of the jam :) At first I was intrigued of how with each stage, new additions to the rules are made in an intuitive way. But then when I died and restarted, I found out that these "different rules" are never the same in one playthrough!! This really adds a lot of replayability and is super fun. Compliments to the team, you guys did a fantastic job!
Nice entry ! Interesting turn based game, with a lot of cool touches, and feedbacks on point 10/10 would say yes
Very nice game! I love the random levels and changing rules that stack. It's really captivating and plays at a nice pace. Sounds and visuals are also really on point. Very well done!
I would say that this game was made by an indie studio! It's pretty fun with a formula that it's quite simple, but unbreakable.
Such a fantastic game with incredible polish! absolutely loved it!
A fun game! The camera was a bit tough on my eyes, tbh. Also since I'm colorblind I'd love if the colored tiles also had symbols or something. It would be cool also if the level didn't start doing stuff until my initial input. All together a good job!
Cool game! The concept is very crative. Well done.
nice game. I like the fact, that the level changes are behold between lives
Arts and sound are nice! And I liked the game design and how it is random between all runs. Good job!
Solid good game, enemy keys + ice killed me 3 times in a row at same spot... I went into madness
Ah, I now understand the meaning of out of control! Very polished game, the "what lurks in the shade" rule is what gets me everytime.
The game is really polished for a jam entry. Excellent job!
This is a fun little game.
It got a bit difficult when I got modifiers that made enemies look like keys and made keys move around. You might even say that it got out of control.
Wow very polished and easy on the eyes. Nice entry!
Yes! Enjoyed this... The fact that the rude doors sometimes jump to your tile while you jump on theirs made me do an actual "Ha!". The 'some keys are enemies' rule did really mess with me though. I may be missing the visual clue.
Stage 13 btw.
Brilliant work. Absolutely loved every second of it.
Great game ! Great difficulty curve, good graphics. I’ve got absolutely no issues and encountered no real bugs… Good job honestly, one of the most polished games I’ve seen yet.
This game is awesome.
The art is great, the gameplay is responsive, the audio is nice, and the steadily growing complexity fits the theme really well. I had a lot of fun playing it.
The furthest I made it was stage 10, once the keys become evil monsters the game got way too hard for me :D.
This is really fantastic work though, great job!
This is a great game! the concept of new rules until it becomes absolute chaos is very well implemented and it's fun to play with nice graphics!
This was great. I would buy this.
