How does your game fit the theme?
We decided to have the character walk very slowly to the point you have to shoot magic to move, so it's not a run and shoot with a super slow character therefore we made it a penguin, we didn't use unity's physics to be able to polish it more, you have to walk at the end to win. We placed it in a magic lab that is out of control as an extra overscoped we wanted multiple powers and more platoforming.

It was fun, but I don't like the fixed angles with the shooting. There also seems to be no point in walking. Why does it exist if it is so slow? I also can't tell if there is a point to the game or if it's just a live-as-long-as-you-can game.

Took a while but this game grew on me, I especially loved the fact that you can propel yourself Gameplay of it is from 9:50 - 11:25

Very cool entry, love the art style, love the sounds effects and music, one way you could add variety is by randomly changing the pitch slightly of your sound effects to give the feeling of multiple possible sounds. Great work!

I really loved the art in this one. Maybe a bit to simple in the gameplay department but still I have some fun with it ;)

Visually it's a very impressive game! I'd suggest making automatic shooting on LMB hold with a cooldown, clicking so much makes it uncomfortable to play. Sometimes hits also don't seem to register, possibly because the bullets fly fast and overlap enemy collider. I'd like to see more of this game or other projects which incorporate your art style, though. :)

Walking is so frustrating ! :O Good job, I liked it !

Great art! I had problems with the 'bullets' being cast over the mouse which made aiming difficult. I think this game's are and world could be a really cool game if there was more variation or additional mechanics to the gameplay. Good job!

Beautiful art and fun concept, 5 stars!!

The gameplay feels very simple, and I feel like I actually have more control with spells than walking around, but man if it isn't well presented.

Adorable - I love the art style. The idea of a slow penguin and slippery floors made some fun concepts. I had some trouble clearing level 1, perhaps a bug? Anyways cute art and characters :)

This was so cute!!! The music was adorable, I wanted to just sit there and listen to the music. I adore the art design as well, the graphics are fantastic. The sound effects are also great! I wish there was more to play, but I thoroughly enjoyed escaping the first room. Good job!

Really enjoyed it, simple but fun mechanics. I would love to see it turned into a bigger game. And of course it's very cute! The almost papercraft style works very well. Great work!

Oh my god this game is absolutely adorable. The fun visuals and unique gameplay makes this a pretty worthwhile game. I would have liked to see something more connected to the theme, however.

Great art style, graphics and sound are really good. Would like to see where this goes if you add in those extra features. Keep up the good work 👍

I love the art for this game. However the addition of a tutorial would be much appreciated.

The art is amazing, it's the prettiest game I've played in the jam! is it possible to win? I got far right enough to go off screen but id just be stuck there until I got killed. I still really enjoyed the game though
