Controls are very nice and intuitive. Great game! 

Developer

Thanks. 

Glad you liked it! ^_^

Nice puzzle game! Artstyle is very pleasing and readable. Good take on the theme. The only thing that really bothered me is how slow heroes move! It is daunting to re-try the same level when they are so slow :(

Good game nevertheless.

Developer

Thanks, glad you liked it! :)


Yeah, I have to agree in hindsight. I already got a pretty great suggestion to include a "fast forward" button, I guess that would solve this issue. Maybe I'll do it in a post-jam version.

Cheers for the feedback! ^_^

This is so polished; it plays like it's ready for sale already!

Developer

Wow, thanks, you are so nice. :)

Submitted

Nice puzzle game! :D
I was confused at first when at the end of the introduction it asked me to restart the level or going to the menu, I thought I was missing how to play. XD

Thanks, glad you liked it! ^_^

Sorry about that, I get that why it is confusing... I'm happy that you could made sense of it tho' :)

Nice game overall, very well put together (the art go well with the tone, the audio and emma, etc). It definitely feel like a polished and finished game !

My only complain would be to add a reminder for the dog/grappe effect. I didn’t remember how much the stamine number would increase/decrease.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback, it's very valuable. :) 


That's a fair point about pickups, thanks for the suggestion. ^_^

Maybe I could have done a help menu with the numbers, or do a floating text "+3" when you pick something up.

Liked it a lot. Tthe boss is great, glad you implemented a skip for repeat levels. I passed the 9 levels and had a bit of trouble at first, but could figure it out after a bit of trial and error. Good job!

Developer

Thank you so much. Glad you liked it and happy you made it all the way. 

Good job ^_^

Great puzzle game. Very nice. Man I hate those dumb-dumb heroes! :)

Developer

Thanks you so much! ^_^ 

Who doesn't...? :D

Really cute game! Standard advice for pixel art games is that if you're doing pixel art, keep your pixels a uniform size. For the most part you do, with some exceptions in the UI buttons. Because the hero made it to the goal on the first level, I somehow got the impression that my goal was to get the hero to the end, not to stop them. Once I realized though, I quickly started to understand what I was doing and had an all-around good time! The only thing I could really complain about is that the pace is a little bit slow when it comes for waiting for the hero to travel. Other than that, good work! :)

Developer

Thanks for the detailed feedback!

Glad you found some things you like about this lil' game. ^_^

Yeah, I agree I could've done a better job with the buttons, cheers for the tip!

As for the slow hero, I already got a suggestion to have a "fast forward" feature and I quite like that idea, I think that would lead to a smoother experience for you as well.

Cheers!

Submitted

THAT WAS AMAZING. This game actually made me think.

Developer

Wow you are so nice. 

I'm really happy you enjoyed it that much, thanks for the feedback ^_^ 

Submitted

I liked it, very smooth presentation, but the hero could move a bit faster.

Developer(+1)

I'm happy that you enjoyed it! :)

Yeah, I can see how it can be frustrating at times. I liked to suggestion to include a fast forward button. That would make it better I guess.

Fun game, easy and intuitive controls and very good choice of music to don't make it anoying. I encourage you to make more levels.

The only suggestion i can think of is add a 'fast foward' button, so the hero doesn't take that long to try to reach the exit on every attempt.

Developer

Thank you so much for the feedback, glad you liked it!

That's a brilliant idea actually, I will do it! :)

Really addictive puzzle game. I think I spent too much trying to figure out the correct way to solve them. The game is really smooth and neat, overall good job!

Developer

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! ^_^

I don't like puzzle games very much but this was a nice one, and it really shows that I don't read explanations enough.

Developer

Haha, yeah I went a bit overboard with the dialogue.

Glad you still liked it, despite not being your favourite genre. :)

Thank you <3

First tutorial-level (the straight level) had me confused for a moment ... but then I noticed the "next" button, after my second try.

Nice concept, really nice puzzle game!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much, glad you liked it!

That's a fair point actually, I should've straight up deleted the restart button there. Thanks for pointing it out! ^_^

Funny evil man and overall good puzzle game (I already needed help at lvl 2) !

Congratulations on your submission !

Developer

Thank you so much! ^_^ 

Yeah level 2 ended up being a lot more difficult than I wanted it to be... Glad you made it through.

Cheers!
