I really like the puzzle mechanic and the use of the theme, great job !!

Developer

Thank you! Appreciate it!

Really nice puzzle! Artwork and sound effects are great! Could used "heavy three" a bit more and difficulty cure might be better. Otherwise I enjoyed this game so much! I couldn't think one person can make this in 3 days (even with game engine and late submissions)

Developer (1 edit)

Well I was very close to deadline, yeah. I did want to create more levels around the three and the button, but time ran out to create more levels, so I left it at that. Thank you very much tho!

Favourite game so far! This was really well done, polished, lots of levels to play through (I finished it, it was really fun!) Some of the levels were really clever! The extras were fabulous I gotta say, everyone needs to play them ;DD 

Developer

I am very, VERY glad you enjoyed playing it. It was the first time I put my all of my past skills into this game. Since I've never actually even finished a game, I was quite surprised what I was able to do. But I also found your game very hooking and funny!

Submitted

Absolutely, the fact that you also did the sound and art and even had time to make so many levels is awesome! That's where my game failed haha, put a lot of time into polish and not enough into actual gameplay. :D

Developer

You still managed to submit it in time tho. That's the most important part! I was stressing like 4 hours before deadline, trying to create some levels. But at least you and me submitted our games!

Developer

Btw, when you played Numbers Matter, did you notice, that in every level except the first one you collect all the numbers in the order of 3, 2, 1? A nice little easter egg I included ;)

Submitted

Oh wow you're right! Haha I didn't realise :D That's genius!

This is really well-done.  A classic platformer with thoughtful, interesting mechanics.  I'm impressed you put 12 levels together in the time we had (and the theme is on-point here).

Pixel art is also nice.  My only critique would be the collision gets wonky sometimes, like on the edges of opened gates.  It would also be nice if you could just hold shift to fall through multiple platforms.

Great work!

Developer

Yeah. The collision had some problems sometimes, but wasn't reallly able to figure out why that happened. Maybe I messed up something in the player-controller and that messed things up a bit. 

Falling through multiple platforms at a time should be possible with one script-line, which should do it. But I won't change too much now. Maybe later.

Thank you for your feedback!

Really cool game, I liked that each number had a unique ability and there are a lot of levels! Great job!

Developer

I had multiple Ideas for the abilities for numbers, like change gravity for example. But I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Developer

Today I've finally put out the web-version. There were some bugs when building the web version, so I do recommend you to play the downloaded version instead.

Submitted

This mechanic is pretty awesome. I could totally see this as a full game. Seriously, imagine if there was 5 numbers!? Or 10!?!?!?

Developer

OOOOOOh, would be vey interesting. But finding a mechanic for each number would be very difficult :D

Submitted(+1)

Really well thought out levels and fun to play too, nice game!

Submitted(+1)

Clever game with clever mechanics and clever puzzles! I enjoyed it a lot!

Developer

Thanks!!

OMG I GOT RICKROLLED??? very good puzzle design btw. Huge variety of mechanics.

Developer

What? You were???

Thank you! I'm glad you liked the puzzles :)))

Submitted(+1)

WOW this game is amazing. The fact you had enough time to make a game of this calibre is awesome. Everything about it is good. The puzzles make you think and are fun (although I spent over 10 minutes in the first portal level). Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much foryour appreciation!!! This was the first time I tried to make a game (haven't really done a full one with a game mechanic before), So I myself am surprised of what I have accomplished...

Submitted(+1)

Good game with interesting and fun mechanics

I like how it got from game about getting those numbers in correct places to multi-dimensional travel and portals

Developer(+1)

I spent a lot of time getting the mechanics right. So I'm very glad to hear that my work paid off.

Thank you!!!

Developer

Impressive amount of mechanics for such short development time.

Fun puzzles and cute presentations.

Great work!

Developer

It was quite the hassle to figure out, what each number should do.

Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

Well polished gaming experience and a great way to implement the theme!
The game felt complete, which I think is a great achievement for a game jam.
Good job! ^^

Developer

Thank you! I worked so hard to make the art good with the little art-knowledge that I had.

Submitted(+1)

Wooow what a great game !!

It's really cool how you managed to make all of those puzzles in such a short time! I softlocked myself on the portal level tho lol

Developer

That’s why I added a restart button in the game menu 😅
