Use of the limitation
BE SURE TO READ THE CONTROLS BEFORE STARTING! It will help! We worked to this brief by creating an exciting game play and in depth story and complex dialogue with unique mechanics and implemented a platform style level with some platforms that change throughout game play within a rogue like game composition.

Art and sound is pretty good, and the weapons were fun to use, but I think the level design could use some improvements. It seemed like there were a lot of jumps that were slightly out of reach; if I fell to the bottom of the map i couldn't really get back up. Apart from that it was well put together. Well done :)

Thank you for playing! We hope you had fun. Unfortunately it was the classic only 72 hours problem. It was hard to tune everything given the time constraints... but you know about that too haha

That was unexpected... art style is nice, music pretty cool (even if it would turn me crazy after more than 10 minutes :)) and the idea to switch between different "weapons" depending on the flies you ate is just perfect!

Few points for improvement: we can get stuck in the thin platforms, when jumping through them, but not going high enough... And the lerp on the camera migh be too high: I once died in the swamp even before the camera was on it :)

Developer

Thank you for the great feedback. I just wish it was a 96 hour game jam instead of 72 hahah.

Mixed feelings about this! The graphics and sounds are gorgeus and very well done, the gameplay seems cool but collisions and other things seems to be hit&miss.

Thanks for the feedback. The artist and sound people did an amazing job. I just wish it was a 96 hour jam instead of 72 haha

Really cool idea. I'm a sucker for roguelik...roguelites and so you get plus points just for that :)

I did get stuck on the lower level:


I was unable to move and/or get damaged. The tongue-upgrade was not purchased, only the lemon-zest thingy.

Cool artstyle and variety :)
The music was a little too energetic for my taste.
Overall pretty well done.

Developer

thanks for the feedback!

Nice game! has a lot going on. wish the upgrades were a bit cheaper initially so you could try them all out. 

Great job!

Developer

That's a good idea we were unsure how many people would manage to collect lol!

This was a great use of the limitation -as the ability to purchase upgrades and come back makes the level more fun!  The art and humor in this were great -liked the dialogue a lot and really liked the music too!  Impressive jam game -really awesome work! :D

I love the name so much! haha. Super nice presentation, and the gameplay loop is really solid. The platforming does take some getting used to for sure though.

Developer

thanks I would have maybe designed the level a bit different to start with. We’re you able to explore the lower level with the grass and water etc.?

Submitted(+2)

I admit it took me a while to think "oh I could go right and/or down!" haha

Developer

that’s good to know!

Good aesthetics and opening, only problems i had were with the pixel art being out of proportion and the gameplay being quite confusing to start out. The music was quite funky tho, i gave it a rating, check mine out too if ya could.

Developer

Thanks! Checking out the controls page will help massively will help before pressing start on the game! It would be great if time constraint allowed us to add a tutorial section.
