Good effort!

I liked that it felt like there was a world there

But also that I could see you ran out of time HARD. 
Feel slightly less bad about my own entry now lol

Nice, even if you didn’t enjoy it (not that you said you didn’t but in case you didn’t), I count it as a win that it ameliorated your own feelings. That’s part of why I entered it anyway, trying to get past my own issues with perfection (or even a finished product). Obviously I want to make something people enjoy and do the best that I can but feedback is so important, nothing is every really “ready” and it’s not like this is going to cause harm (i.e. don’t rush safety tests for things like vehicles, this is just a videogame). Earlier jams I focused on mechanics and player movement and this is only the second where I’m trying to make a cohesive world and actually drew out a map (on paper!) before making anything digitally. I always learn a ton during make the game, so even if it falls short I get something out of it, but it’s also nice to hear what I’m trying to improve is bubbling up a little.

Haha I liked it!

And yea, I feel exactly the same as you :)

I tend to worry a lot about getting things 'just right', and then never really completing, or sometimes doing them at all.

This is a great way to improve without worrying

And I'm glad that I found a kindred spirit :)

One cool thing taht stood out to me is there was some dynamic animation while jumping - it looked like the character tries to grab the ledge if front of it as it jumps. I thought that was neat

Really like the 3rd person 3D view, controls were a little hard to get used to and the first saws were tough but got through. Unfortunately it looks like the game is incomplete and didn't hear any sound/music which would have added to the experience. Thanks for submitting

"I am incapable of keeping scope down" <- extremely relatable words

Great work, I like the level design- for me personally it's one of those game dev areas I'm a little lacking in, so I'm impressed you made this so fun to explore- and the implementation of erasing is good!

Nice start to what seems like it would become a fun puzzle game! The character was really cute. There were a few times I was confused, but I eventually figured everything out and got the final orb on the second floor. I totally sympathize with making the scope of the game too big. Go big or go home, right? 😂

Honestly very cool game. Only thing I had issues with was the mouse/camera, if I left the screen it seemed to bug out a bit. I think using the itch fullscreen instead of f11 might fix that but I'm not sure

I love the lil buggy boi

Thank you for intuitive controls! I liked the storybook + erasing approach to the theme. I got stuck at the point of trying to erase the 2nd word (derelict, IIRC) to proceed past the rubble in the castle. Still, fun entry!

(Also, you should add a cover image to your game!)

Developer

Thanks for playing and the feedback. FWIW you essentially got stuck at the last thing to do. The second storybook erase went in just before the deadline so I’m not surprised it didn’t work. I have a lot more planned for post jam. Thanks for the cover reminder, I normally try to do that by the end of the first rating day but kept putting it off till now.

Cool game! I liked how you had a couple of different erasing mechanics implemented.

Developer

Thanks for playing! I knew my original plan was too ambitious but I’ve got a lot more erasing planned for post jam, hopefully you’ll check it out.
