Additional Info
Over the summer I have been looking in to game jam. I always had trouble finishing game and since game jam has a deadline it would be the perfect way for me to finish a complete game. For the first two day a spend play around with ideas and builds in order to get the good idea that I can work the game around. The next three day was me building out the level. I send to friends to test it and then add the update the next day. I had to work non stop most of the time. It also got pretty scary when my computer was acted and I fear I would lose all my work. But in the end I pull it through. I am proud of what I made and I hope you all enjoy my game.

Grain, or maybe a clover?

Nicely done - I liked pretty much everything about this. Especially the mood and the puzzle design.

What are the skeletons chewing on?

Love the graphics! I included it in my Insanity Jam 4 compilation video, if you would like to have a look :) https://youtu.be/6fdBM8oj9vc

Very nice game. I love how the character is animated. It looks very well finished for a game made on a short period of time. Very good level design as well !

Hey super nice game :]Difficulty is nicely levelled The end was a bit hard but it's beatable and very pleasant to go through !

I loved the story (even if i'm not sure i understood everything) and how the insane idea was used to tell it:)

Very few collision issue (one that helped me with at a hard jar :) but super cool game.
