Definitely my favorite game in the whole jam! It's really challenging, that's why finishing it felt soooo rewarding! Sadly a lot of players got stuck at the beginning of the first level :/, I almost gave up there too :P

The game is awesome, specially the mechanics! You just need to add some music, maybe draw sprites for the platforms, and make an easier first level.

Great job! :D

Thanks a lot

Tip: You can actually wall jump

Awesome game! I could not complete the entire game but I managed to go up one purple platform - thanks to your tip!

great mechanics :0 unfortantely I didnt manage to jump from the first purple platform to the second but x.x its still a great game, good job :D

Developer

Use the tips, run into walls to controls your position according to the platform

Quality : really well made, i haven't faced any problems while playing. its a bit hard though because this (very interesting and unique ) mechanic you made needs some time to get used to.

visual appeal : a bit simplistic but it fit the game.

theme related : a unique take on the theme

fun factor : it was fun , a bit of a mindfuck tho

audio quality : it was soooo loud, also i would have apriceated some background music

Developer

like I've said, the audio is very very fine but for some reason, it broke when got uploaded to the web

I'll soon add a downloadable version with better sounds

Also your game is very great, the 2nd best game I've rated

Developer

Also, do you guys notice that my game: In Control has a completely opposite name to a 2020 game jam theme: Out of Control?

Host

I noticed. I was in that jam.

this game is a mindfuck, and i mean it in the best possible way! How counter-intuitive it is to jump on a platform by walking away from it! Very nice idea for a platformer.

i had fun playing this! Only problems that arise are little technical stuff. For example being able to jump without touching the ground, by smashing the rigidbody against the wall. Great entry overall, congrats on finishing this game and submitting it!

Developer

The wall jump is actually intended so that you can complete level 2 and jump on the rotator :)

Host(+1)

Second note, if you go from pressing left to pressing right without leaving time to reset the center, than rotators jumps from an angle to instantly being flat, then continue to increase the angle.

I don't know how you do the input, but maybe doing a function with the get axis (not get axis raw) input might lead to having them not jump when rotating.

Developer

Um I'm actual did GetAxis () function though

Host

No, doing a function with the output of GetAxis, which would then give you a proper curve for movement.

Developer

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class Rotator : MonoBehaviour
{
    public float speed;

    void FixedUpdate()
    {
        float input = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
        float currentRot = transform.rotation.z;
        currentRot += input * speed * Time.deltaTime;
        transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0, 0, currentRot);
    }
}

Interesting game, jumping cooldown could be a bit faster.  The menu click button sound is very high pitched and could rupture my ear drum :D. Nah but overall interesting game and cool level design. Great work!

Host

Yes, but it isn't really a cooldown he has. He should have a raycast going downward so you can jump just before you hit the ground.

Developer

No I have done that but I don't know why it doesn't work for you, it works fine for me

Developer

Um, actually the sound is very normal when I make game but for some reason when I upload the game it becomes earaping

Host(+1)

Love the mechanics, though the level design (especially scaler) could use some work. The low resolution for the player is a bit annoying, maybe get a higher definition circle?

overall a really fun game, and want it to be expanded with more levels and maybe things that rotate and scale.
