This game is really great for a jam this short. The art is sick and the puzzles are fun without being too challenging. Good job!
Looks good and fun! Nice pixel art! One of the best puzzle games of the Jam. I haven't seen mind control games like this. I liked the control where you have to aim and get a shot in to mind-control, game wouldn't make much sense or be this fun if the controls were click on an enemy to mind-control. Nicely done!
A nice fun mechanic, well I have seen similar mechanics before, the idea of chaining the links through mages, and then the added mini game style un-linking mid shot to prevent a game over is a really nice touch
This is the best game I've played in this entire jam so far! I just have one very small little piece of feedback and that is that the aiming feels a bit weird but other than that this is a solid 11/10
Hahah, thank you, you arent the first person WHO thinks aiming was weird here. It is because only main player aims towards mouse and every other characters aims the exact same direction the player does :D i think i should indicate it more clearly then :D
Absolutely loved the art and levels were so well designed. This feels like a fully fledged steam game instead of a game jam entry. Nicely done
I really enjoyed it once it kinda let loose and you had to break bonds while a projectile was in the air. I wanted more levels like that! Fun game! Loved the blood effect.
Cool concept and nice art!
This was a good take on the idea of taking control of multiple entities! Well done here, the art was top notch!
Solid puzzler! Sprites looked awesome. I struggled sometimes knowing whether or not I should have been able to reach another sprite with my beam - would love somehow clearer signposting on that. Great entry!
Neat concept and art! Great game.
Cool concept, and well done art and sound! The aiming was off though. I loved the death effects!
In what way was it off? Btw. Other characters didn't aim to mouse but in exact same direction main hero was :D i guess that could make you feel IT was off
Ah! That would explain it! Makes so much more sense. That's probably for the best. Forget what I said. :)
Cool and fun game! When you had to move, disjoin, move, disjoin and then do that a couple of times it became a bit frustrating (or maybe I misunderstood the level?). Other than that, great fun :D
Hahah, whether or not you misunderstood the level it is still my design fault, haha :D Thank you!
Really cool concept! Digging the art style.
I really love this game! I would actually play a full game of that! Graphics are very nice as well and music fit perfectly!
Congrats!
That blood XD
This looks really good, and i really like the concept! Some of the levels were pretty hard, but great job anyway!
Cute art style and sprites! Really nice work!
:D what a great execution on a great idea. the music becomes a bit stressing and annoying after a while. congratulation on the submission!
Nice puzzle idea and pixel art.
Last level is a little bit too long to execute after know the solution.
Interesting concept and well-executed!
