Nice little prototype ! It's a fairly basic, easy and repetitive game, but for a 48h jam, it does the trick !

Developer

Thanks! Yeah it was my first game jam, but I only worked on music and the background I guess. Shows that working in a team makes all the difference.

The concept is cool, but the game as it is seems way to easy, but I guess one only has time for so much in a short game jam. I got to 300 seconds doing the exact same thing with no variation before exiting, unsure if the difficulty would scale as I continued? Catchy music and trippy art! :)

With some more scaling  difficulty and more variation it could become a great game. Well done!

thanks i did art and programing  an i totally spaced the difficulty scaling infinitely lol it only kinda scales

Definitely my type :B It sounds and looks akward a little, but it creates some special atmosphere. Thank you for your work!

Thanks! I actually worked on the music and all epicnoob (the director) told me is to make cryptic but also upbeat somehow. Really happy how it turned out with cool feeling and atmosphere

thanks. I we were going for crypt and hyper light drifter style mix. For art

it was fun, if a bit repetitive (I mean we only had two days, so does repetitiveness matter?) And the music was pretty good too. Overall I think that if you had maybe an extra day or maybe just a few more hours it would have been more fun (same with our game).  However, I do think it's a good idea to have your health and speed be dependent on each other. Cool idea!

Thanks! Yeah, if only we had more time :/ ...

Thank you! Yeah it was my first time doing music for anything, so I'm happy with how it turned out. About the repeatitive-ness, it was our first crack at procedural generation and we ended up having to just re-use the one part that worked from it over and over again due to time constraints. I think more time MIGHT have made it better, but we probably would have just procrastinated a bit longer if that was the case lol.

Developer

i was working on a actual dungeon generation but i knew i could not get  it working on time so i just used what i had  its meant to be a short fun time based game   something u can player  a few rounds of and maybe come back 2   and if we do end up doing a post jam update i will be sure  to make it less repetitive  

Developer

pls leave your times with your comments
