I really enjoyed this one. The concept is great and the execution is fantastic! Everything was easy to learn and figuring out where to go next was really fun! A small gripe I have is that there are areas where you have to walk a longer distance and the walking noise can get a little annoying. Other than that though, everything was very polished, and I had a great time playing! Great job!
Neat idea! I really liked the mechanic. I prefer continuous movement, but It's a very good work in level design.
Great idea! The mechanics was simple and fast-learning paced!
Maybe I would have preferred a continuous movement ;)
Well done, really liked your game and even got one more energy than i needed to finish it :D
Gotta say you have done quite the job with the level design, you always kept me on the edge and just gave me enough bits of foreshadowing to know where i have to go next and where i could also look, generally the concept probably works quite well for also including certain secrets :D
To give some feedback too since there was a lot of walking back and fourth it would have been great to move a bit faster or to have more to do in between :)
Overall quite impressive entry for just 48 hours, well done :)
good game! but personally i would have preferred a continuous movement.
A winner is me :)
Nice little idea for a game jam. I would like to see some more same-screen-path-choosing puzzles (which path to take in order to keep enough stamina to progress) instead of a fetch-questing. Designing them may be hard but worthwhile.
Oddly soothing and the first game of the jam that I won. Pretty fun.
Really liked the art in this one, and i think the 2d climbing along with the stamina system make for a very interesting puzzler/exploration games. Great entry, congratulations!
I love the art and the sounds! Hike boy moves a little slow though though.
Niice I loved the art.
-The hike boy wins, but always got stuck in that cave. Poor little boy
The art-style in this game is definitely the stronger side of the three rating criteria, cute, adorable and simplistic pixel-art, but i do find it kinda odd that i was not able to finish the game, I've collected 4 bolts but couldn't get past the wall that you climb sideways.
But maybe that's just me being dumb and not seeing any other obvious way? Either way, a really nice game and a fine piece of art.
