Too bad it’s short, because it’s really nice! Ambiance is on point, shadows are well drawn and I’d love to know more about the world in your game :) Dash was indeed not super obvious. However the theme is here, feels hot! I believe some shadows (the thin lines between dots on the left and right branch, when you start) which is too bad because it feels unfair.
Will you continue the game? I really liked it <3
UPDATE: Oh you’re the person who did Bottom Feeder during Jam 159! :D KEEP IT UP can’t wait to see your next jam submissions!!
Thank you for playing! Yeah for sure could use some polishing :) I’ll most likely put this away for now and just keep bashing out jams to improve and when i feel like i can make something properly i might come back to these older ideas :)
Also thanks!!! I remember your icon from a few i’ve submitted to, you always make fun stuff :)
very cool wasteland, I felt like a desert wanderer and started looking for a camel
If i make anything more for this i’ll include a camel for you :)
I'll keep an eye on your page and wait for the camel hehehe.
really interesting worldbuilding that you could expand on further, at first i didnt realize you could sprint though so i'd make that more clear
the limitation is loosely used but it really works well with the theme
Thanks for your input! Yeah i totally agree i was supposed to have a separate run animation + between state but i procrastinated too much haha!
Love the art style
Thanks for playing! :)
Great work, love your artistic style it's very unique.
Had a little trouble at first figuring out the sprint button but once I did it was very straightforward. Loved the concept!
Thank you for recording yourself playing! It’s nice to see how people play this thing i spent hours looking at hahah!
I think the artstyle is awesome and really fits the game. Great game, bit short obviously, but would have loved to play on. The fact that the player doesn't see what's casting the shadows means you could get away with a lot. Well polished.
Thanks for your comments :) I wish i had time to make additional levels!
