Interesting take on the theme and very fun to play, I did find the a camera kinda snappy so some smoothing on it would have been nice
The platforming itself was really good. I'd maybe move the dash off 'C' as it's hard to press, and the intro really needed a skip button.
This game is pretty cool! I almost closed the game in the intro, but i didn't and i doscovered a very well made game!the concept is very clever, and the pixel art is Amazing, keep going! please check out my game too :D
I'd have appreciated a way to speed up the intro (maybe hitting space after i was done reading could jump to the next screen of text). This was fun to play! Very nice entry!
Nice pixel art :)
R and C aren't super comfortable to use alongside WASD and the intro was little long, but it was a fun, good looking game.
One of the better ones I've played, great intro. I had a lot of fun playing this, the jump animation was so satisfying!
Nice game but please let me skip the dialogue, I can read faster than that.
Also the button layout could have been easier to use.
Also let me rewind after death if that is a mechanic instead of restarting the whole level.
It's a cool concept! C is a really hard place for dash I think haha. I can see the potential though~ if you liked this idea, keep working on it. Take people's feedback and improve it! Congrats on submitting an ambitious game to the jam. Please check out mine if you haven't :D
Very nice game! You made a very good game.
art and design was cool. but control was too fast me. got little hang of it after few time but i lost all control when entering new teritory.
I appreciate what you were going for, but I think it was just too irritating to control. The movement is tight but a little too fast as well. Also next time don't put 3 minutes of unskippable text before the game lol. I think the level design was pretty good though!
Tight controls, but the time slow down thing was pretty off-putting. I wasn't really sure what was happening sometimes. I also wish there was some sort of shooting mechanic. Nice work!
Really awesome art and animations. Hope you continue with this game!
This is super polished and really wicked. The art is extremely super metroid inspired but feels unique on it's own and I love that. The jumping felt really responsive and fluid, and the animations played out perfectly. The sound was really fitting especially the design on the slow down sound effects. The text at the start feels distant from what the game is and I wish you had time to work on that more. Waiting for all the text to pop up and fade away was very slow and didn't match the pacing of the game. I wish my health bar was more obvious.
Thank you for your words! Surely we will take some time to do the game more pleasant to play!
Thank you very much for your feedback! I agree with you about the text pop up, we should've made it faster or skippable. We will try better next time!
I couldn't tell what was happening in those time slow-down parts - was I slowing down and everything else was at normal speed? Was everything slowing down? What were those glowing powerups? What did they do? I'm not smart enough for this game :( sorry
Sorry, we didn't have enough time to include all the explanations in the game. Powerups are supposed to protect you from slowing down, but they also don't let you rewind time. Anyway, thank you for checking it out!
Great art and storyline. The controls need some work though, as it seems they're fighting against you sometimes
That's how out of control works xD/ Thanks for the feedback!!
Lol yeah they're perfectly on theme. I'm saying the same for my game which has problems with controls too :D I'll fix them after the review process
Really great looking game! Love the colour scheme especially
I loved the storyline here and the gameplay, but it took a very long time to actually start playing because of the slow text transitions! usually I take borrowed art AND music as a drawback, but the fact that you implement this in a fashionable manner makes it all the better, well done!
Love the music and the atmosphere, but wish we could skip the text in the beginning.
