Interesting gameplay, a bit hard to get a clear idea on giw moving one of the wells will impact on your trajectory, but a nice challenge.
Very interesting movement mechanic, nothing I ever seen before. I think I died but then moved on to the second boss which was strange. Took me a while to realise the boxes were the gravity wells but interesting experiment that I wish could be made a bit more predictable in terms of movement.
This game actually contains 2 of my favorite characteristics I look for in video games:
It's a shame there's no audio but I really liked everything else and you've really inspired me with this game!
Nice graphics, and bosses atack patterns only issue is the lack of audio
Very interesting and challenging! It's quite confusing tho, I find the way the trajectory changes based on how I move the wells to be totally unpredictable. Definitely needs more feedback, especially audio, and to ease the player into the mechanics rather than throwing them immediately into the snake level. Graphically it's really good, the abstract theme fits it well!
This was a really cool unique concept for a game! Definitely lots of potential for super high skill gameplay here. I wish it had audio though, and maybe a bit more indication about your health/when you're getting hit
interesting feedback ! I dumped the health"bar" but I might add it back 👀
I absolutely love it, but I cant for the life of me get past the second boss ToT his pink slappers just bounce about I have no hope of dodging them, theyre too OP thank god snakes don't have hands irl.. great game wish I was better at it :)
Thank you 💖I'm glad you still enjoyed the challenge !
I like games like these with abstract and interesting gameplay. I think that you could even spend more time on it and discover the cool places you could go with the mechanics. Great work!
Thank you for your comment 💖
I'm glad you love the game. I'll try to make a "complete" version of the game with sounds and full art + menu/tutorial.
I started working on it the last 48h of the jam. Would have been so much better if I took the time to work on it earlier...
The screencap gifs look really cool! I wasn't able to figure out how to get past the snake, sadly.
Thank you for your feedback ! With the lack of times I couldn't add sounds and somes assets. Saddly the tutorial + menu didn't make it 😔
I'll try to publish a full version for the post-jam
It's a little unclear if I'm meant to be bopping the baddies or just avoiding them. Also, do the different colors of gravity wells act differently?
It's a boss survival game and I added jumps to easily avoid them at the cost of surviving longer.
Don't worry the colors are only graphical changes 😅👍
Amazing graphic’s style and effect, and innovative gameplay (but a bit confuse too). It’s a shame there is absolutely no sound but that was an interesting experience ! Good job !
