  • I couldn't stop laughing, doesn't fit the theme well but thank you. I was in tears.
  • EGG. EGG CRIMINAL. I enjoyed my Egg Journey, Nice nether portal. Humor on point, horrifying finale, the theme could have been a bit more solid and i would have liked a few more animated objects, but thanks, i'm horrified.
  • Fun game, enjoyable egg jumping game, although struggle to see the alchemy part of the game! A very enjoyable vibe
  • You are a menace. Thank you for existing and thank you for this eggciting game. The theme could have been implemented more directly but this does well for what it is. The jokey text lines and responses in the comments are top notch. This is a great little experience. Keep it up!

Tell us about your game!
"Egg?" is a weird little 2D platformer / side scroller that takes you on an unexpected, transformative adventure. You jump around, collect your fellow eggs, avoid getting cracked, or getting eaten by Shadowsnakes as you delve deeper into the source of the darkness that is slowly enveloping the world.

Extra Notes
I am a technologically challenged old man. With 0 experience or knowledge about game development. I avoid things that I cannot instinctively grasp. This whole project was my declaration of war against my nature to run away from things I do not understand. From things that I am not good at. After countless hours of wrestling with the simplest of tasks for a real game developer, and failing to follow even the simplest tutorials, I remain NOT GOOD AT game development. But you know what? I went against my nature and finished what I set out to do. And for this opportunity, I am thankful to all of you who are participating in this, all of you who are out there making and playing these games. To anyone reading this. Thank you. Keep being awesome.

Game is straight forward. Unsure of the alchemy portion of the game and the sound of collecting the eggs hurts my ears on headphones. Possibly make the sound of collecting go off by the length instead of repeating every time u collect an egg.

I took on alchemy from a different angle than the traditional potions and wizards.  This one is more about transformative change, and the payoff is mainly at the end. I will try to fix the sounds before I run out of time! And thank you for playing! :D
