Fun idea! The jump is a bit too big and floaty but it all basically works. Well done!
Congrats on your first game jam! Nice idea & theme interpretation. I’d say the controls need some polishing, more smoothness & inertia. There are also a few bugs, like the spikes don’t actually kill you on the first level (see the screenshot). Anyways, good job!
I love the fact that you have to "juggle" the core through the level
Interesting concept, but it doesn't really feel like the character and core are connected while you play. maybe the cord that connects them could have a specific length, and your character can't move further away from the core than that.
Other than that i'd say it needs just a tiny bit more attention to the little things (stuff like not having quite enough space to land safely behind the core on the first level)
I saw it was your first jam entry, great job on getting it in! You've finished more jam games than I ever have. Loved the art for the character and core, they were cute :)
Interesting simple game but I thought the use of the limitation was a bit weak. What I mean by that is the connection between you and the core is simply to explain why the timer exists and why it affects you and doesn't really play a role in the gameplay.
Hellooo, neat game you have there. The idea is easy to grasp, after I finished the level and died into the spikes, I understood that you were supposed to carry the box to the finish :) After that is was straight forward, finishing the levels (my personal favourite were the conveyor belts). Simple, compact, rounded up. There are some Quality of Live changes that could have been made to improve the game flow, for example the box could have become a sphere since I had some problem pushing it over edges sometimes. For some reason the platforms also felt like they were immensely slowing down towards their final position, making it even hard pushing boxes over. And sometimes there were irriversable moves which made you start all over again, which didn't quite feel that nice. But all that is just bashing on a solid gameplay with multiple levels. As such I can only say good job, keep up the good work!
Thanks for all the feedback. This is my first jam entry, and it is great to get some feedback.
