Quite fun and interesting while also executed very well!
And... it fits the theme very well haha
This is so cute and challenging. I really like the replay animation idea. That's really cool.
Great game. I love It.
I would be very happy if you would play my game.
thank you very much
I'll check it out
Super fun game!! Very creative use of the theme and ...our time. The controls feel nice, the music is on brand, and the puzzles are fun. Good job!
this is so polished! I clicked on this because it sounded similar to my game (also a time game!) and wow holosaur is really well done. I would have liked some more challenging puzzles though (but I would say the same about my game’s puzzles! 48 hours is not very much time)
Thanks :D
I never heard that the levels are too easy haha. Did you get till the end? Levels 10-13 are quite hard i think.
I'll go check out yours
yeah, I beat it! In Holosaur, I never had the experience of needing to stop and really think because a level seemed impossible (which is what I like; some of my favorite puzzle games are Snakebird and Stephen’s Sausage Roll) – it was always something more like “ah I guess I need to have pressed that one button a bit longer”.
There was one level with 2 exit paths in the final room, where each path had 3 doors blocking the way. When I played this, I started messing around to try and understand what the puzzle was asking me to do, and what sort of obstacles there were preventing me from winning, but I accidentally beat it on my first try without needing to really understand it.
To be clear: this is a really really high bar to meet!! I’m comparing your 48 hour game to some of my favorite puzzle games of all time, which isn’t very fair. I think my gmtk submission is much more confusing to play compared to Holosaur, and also doesn’t have the sort of puzzles I’m talking about here, so I’m impressed with your submission! (I think Too Many Daves is mainly “hard” because I didn’t figure out a good way to explain the confusing mechanics, not because the puzzles themselves were particularly intricate)
This is really creative and fun to play! I love the little animations and they holosaur version of the character. Great job! Congrats!
This is amazing, the level design was great good job :)
Amazing game! Nice puzzles, graphics, music, and control is precise.
Pretty good overall.
Well done! :)
So funny !!! I love this game ^^
try it !!!
Wow, great game! It feels really polished, congrats!
Super creative game! Great job :)
Holy Crap.... How is this game toooo GOOD????
Overall a great game! Love the art and the music. It looks really good. I also had a great time with the puzzles and thought most of them were well made. Can’t wait to see what you make next!
Awesome game, super fun! Love the timing elements and having figure out all of the buttons! I'd say the side collisions on the lift pieces is a bit too punishing but other than that it was really great fun! :D
Thanks for your feedback!
This is not intended we will try to fix that in the next update :)
The ghost replay mechanic for this game is sick!!! Definitely one of my favorite games so far
Wow I loved this game. This was so clever, the ghost/replay mechanic is awesome! I can play this game all day, bravo!!
One note: I accidentally pressed R instead of E a couple times -- maybe the keys can be just a little more spaced out.
Thanks ! Happy that you liked it!
Yeah still happens to me too, i think we'll change R to "redo current clone" and restart on another key :)
Really cool game, love the art and sound, the concept is also very fun. The only change I would suggest is adding a bit more friction to the characters as right now the acceleration speed feels a bit to high making a few precise jumps a bit harder, but that's pretty minor and overall great job.
Wow this game is so well done. What a great puzzle platformer. It fits the theme quite well.
Smart puzzle platformer! Really cool design and with nice speedrunning stress, but the sound level for the sound effects was a bit high.
Very cute game! I love the graphics and the puzzle design is really good. Literally zero critique. Excellent job!
