I didn't, unfortunately I only actually read it late in development... its kinda a dice roll whether the pineapples work though?... (it doesn't count, I'm not serious don't worry)

None, once again only Jaffa Cakes

How was your experience with Mini Jam?
Still having great fun with this, even if it got a little stressful towards the end, I have some form of playable game out of it!

Despite the bugs, the visual is good and the movement feels smooth. Good job making the game tho! Maybe I'll play it some other time after you fixed it! 

Developer

I hope so! :) I took a couple of days off of working on things but will be getting back to it soon and hope I can get it to a point where you can enjoy it fully!

Cool and very nice art, unfortunally it had lots of bugs and was a lot more vague than i expected when playing it. Don't know if there really were sounds or was just my pc, but i couldnt hear a thing. Still the concept of being chased by a monster was cool. Would really like to see how it would go with the dice roll mechanic.

Developer

Yeah I ran into all the last minute bugs that I didn't see any time during early testing which sucks, and I didn't get around to sound so you weren't imagining things haha. Thank you for the feedback though :), it's definitely gonna be updated when I manage to fix the issues and add some additional features

Afraid this one was a little too buggy for me to properly play. Wasn't able to eat any pineapples and they eventually stopped appearing. It's a shame as the graphics are nice and it's a neat concept. Felt like the balance between your health draining and running out of stamina was pretty good as well.

Developer

yeah that's fair, the pineapples were a nightmare in the last couple of hours haha, I'm reworking the entire system that deals with them though so it should work better soon then I will update when it is perfect.

Ceaseless looks like a fun game, but I had a bit of a hard time figuring out where to go and a harder time getting far in the game. The graphics are really nice and the concept is pretty interesting. The enemy looks pretty spooky and it did give me a sense of dread as it was chasing me, since the HP in this game drops really quickly. The game has a lot of future potential however. Keep up the good work!

Cool game, The art/sprites are really good. The tree effect when you walk behind them is a really nice touch. I didn't really get what I was supposed to do or how I was supposed to damage the enemy. I did feel dread as the enemy chased me though. This is really good base for future releases and the artwork is some of the best pixel art I've seen from a jam.

Thank you! Yeah I wasn't able to get as much tutorial in as I'd like unfortunately, i always try to outline it on the game page but sadly jam submission pages don't show that information unless you go directly to the game page itself so it often gets missed :(.
