OMG, this is so cool! Core mechanic is interesting and nailed very well, but the presentation is just outstanding! I'm in loved with this Lo-Fi soundtrack and visuals, great job! 

Developer

That's so nice, thank you!

Submitted

Loved everything about the presentation, from the blippy lil sound design to the movement overlays. Great execution on the core mechanic too, I've seen a lot of similar ideas this jam and this has been the most fun so far.  Great idea to use the enemy's eyes as strength indicators, made the game very readable.

R.I.P Tutorial cyclops, you never stood a chance  ( ̄ー ̄)ゞ

Very cool game, simple, polished and quality. I like the concept, how it gets the brain working, how humorous it can be and the chill music. Its quite a cool concept and different every time, found it a bit hard, but played it a bunch! Great job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much! I appreciate it

Really cute game!

Like the design and well executed :D

Developer

TY!

Submitted

Amazing!

Funny and fun to play. I laughed out loud when I killed the cyclops for the first time.

Great work, one of the best games this year :)

Developer

Thanks so much!!

Submitted

Phenomenal!  Beautiful graphics, and a fun gameplay.  It can be challenging to get in the right position, but killing an enemy is so rewarding.  Great job!

Developer

Wow, thank you!

Submitted

Our favourite so far, visuals and sound are great, good game polish and general good game feel. The intro NPC is fun too. It would be helpful to know what floor you're on while you're playing, though not essential.

Developer

Thanks a ton :)

Submitted

This is one of my favorite games so far. The concept is really super cool and the art style fits the game perfectly. Keep up the good work!

Developer

I really appreciate that, thanks!

Submitted

So smart, the tutorial is so funny, I would play for hours, great job!

Developer

Very sweet, thank you so much :)

Submitted

Outstanding polish! It's fun and easy to grasp. Really impressive game for 48h.

Developer

TYSM :D

Submitted

For me, this is the best jam game I've tested so far. Good concept, fits the theme, I like the simplicity, the arts, well done.

Developer(+1)

Appreciate it a lot :)

Submitted

This is really really well done. Incredibly polished, small, easy to grasp, fun, interesting, etc. My only feedback which is minor is that it sometimes falls into the trap that other games in this jam have fallen into which is you sometimes lose to an RNG factor that you can't control but even that is rare! Well done

Developer

Thanks so much! Thanks for the feedback, I totally agree

Wow! This one really blew my mind. It feels like a professional game!  The song is a banger and the gameplay is flawless. I'll be coming back to this one for a while.

Developer

Ohh!! Game looks very cute. I very love it, this game's exe will be mine hehe.

Developer

Hehe, thank you!

Submitted

I love it. It's beautiful, it's original, it's replayable forever. And the little cyclope has really fun dialogue. 

Developer

So nice, thank you!

Submitted

I love the projection on the floor of what face you're going to land on, that's definitely the most intuitive implementation of that I've seen so far.

The artwork is beautiful too. The tutorial guy speaks too slowly, I killed him too soon lol. I also love the way his little sounds fade away as he fades away. Very sad

Developer

Thank you so much! I love that you noticed the little sfx fade away when he dies, hahaha, that's my favorite part.

The design was so airtight I was struggling to breathe. And do the enemies' AI even take the eyes on the die into account? 5/5!

Developer (1 edit)

That's so nice, thank you! I'm not telling my AI secrets though, mwahahaha....

Submitted

This is so cool!

Developer

Thanks :)
