Hey there! I streamed your game and reviewed it before the rating period ended. I enjoyed your game and I hope you had a fun experience!
Nice visuals and aesthetic. Some audio would make it really pop. I was unable to do the fight the boss. Lost my sword after destroying the last engine block like it was consumed and was teleported into the boss fight without one.
A few parts were a bit confusing, perhaps I missed something? :) Like when I picked up "water" I could give it away as a "camera", and I didn't understand what I was supposed to do with the lightbulb? :o
I liked the style a lot! Low contrast without loosing detail, I had a lot of trouble with the boss, I really wanted to beat it but I was not skilled enough. Darn! I believe much of the reason I gave up was due to the absence of feedback. I didn't see the health of the boss and heard nothing when I used the sword so I had no way of knowing I was actually damaging it at all. I think that a health bar would've solved a lot of the issues there! And knowing "how little hp it had left" would probably make me want to try again and again. :)
Overall: nice job! :D
Okay! Haha, well, it happens. :D I'll try again, I'm sure I was close to 7. ;)
I liked it! The art style in monochrome is very nicely done!
I think some simple background music would have added to the experience.
Cool Game But the last boss fight was very hard!
cool and nice art! bit annoying how you have to restart from the beginning every time you lose the boss
Fun and nice graphics. This has potential.
I love the art style! It was a little short but that's understandable for a jam game.
Yup! its always a good idea to keep your game jam games small, and then if you have time at the end you can add more.
It looks amazing!
It was fun and good looking but it would be nice if there was audio
