This submission was exceptional; it makes the best use of the themes, and your friend Chase did great with the spritework, as the absurdist themes are done really well, as the world changing with the powerup of the segment, as well as the backgrounds in general are all done really well.
Bravo!
Thank you so much! We spent a lot of time really nailing that absurdist art vibe, we wanted the final background to essentially be a piece of absurdist pixel art. Super glad to hear you enjoyed it!
easily the best one. very enjoyable
I really like the aesthetic and art scheme of eyeballs. I've never seen something like it. I'd like to note that when I was playing the tutorial for the "down arrow" key, I could see that nothing was happening.
unfortunately, we didn't have time to do an animation for the projectile absorption ability. The way it works is that you need to tap down right before a projectile reaches you. We wanted to do a brief animation for it, but due to the time constraints of a game jam, we just had to let the ability function but not have a set animation.
And yeah, thanks! The absurdist art aesthetic was something we REALLY wanted to get right. Honestly both of us are super proud of how the art came out in the end, especially for a game jam game.
Some of the jumps are a little tricky for being only in the 3rd level, but the overall game is well done and feels good to play. Definitely the best here.
I'm curious where you got the assets. Did you make them yourselves?
Yep! All of the art assets were made from scratch for game. The music was taken from previous projects I had done.
Thank you so much!
