Amazing visuals, only problem I found was unresponsive input on the platforming part.

Just like the photography game I stumbled upon in the first VimJam, I really enjoyed this game because it was a calm break from the bombastic boss fights and rushes lol. And the scene where the boss's hat is next to the berries, it's well done. 👍
The only thing I didn't like was the lack of control while mid air, it made some of the jumps awkward. But that's a minor grip.

Surtr: The Edge Of RagnarokI liked the 2D in the 3D but if you are not careful you fall over the edges and restart because of how fast you are xD

Existence: A Short StoryThis game was so fun to play!! It remined me of "short hike". The ending was soo wholesome! The music and art was good. I really loved playing it. My issue with the game is that to read the text box we have to face it but other the that this is execllent!

Your The Best Bosssuch a nice game! the ending was very cute too! reminded me of a short hike alot and the music and art were great! but the hitboxes were a bit weird in my opinion (mainly the trees) and it would be nice for the text boxes to be facing towards you so you do not have to walk around to actually read it other than that it was AMAZING!

Blocker FliesThis is outstanding, I was getting 'a short hike' vibes all the way through. The graphics, the sfx, everything ties together so nicely. The story was also cute as hell, and so were the characters. Can't believe you guys made that 10 days. I noticed the jump is a bit finnicky though, you can't move with wasd in mid air, only strafe with the mouse, and also falling from a later part feels pretty bad because you have to go all the way back. But that doesn't take away from the game at all. Really incredible job guys!

Overtime OverheatHey thanks for your feedback! We appreciate the compliments! Regarding the jump, you actually can move mid air although the movement is reduced. Perhaps this can be further tweaked to make it more noticeable. And yeah, falling down does feel bad especially if it's a long fall. Something we'll need to address in a future update!
This is a really well-made game, especially for only 2 people in 10 days! Loved the visual style with a mix of pixel art and 3D. The game had a cozy feel to it, similar to A Short Hike.
My only (minor) complaints are that the platforming didn't always work right (player got stuck/didn't respond to jump button), and I ran into a lot of invisible walls. But those are small things for an overall great little game.
Well done!

Assistant to the Regional MonsterReally cute exploration game. sadly the controls were a problem, the camera sensitivity was CRAZY fast, to the point that I would fall of cliffs because small gentle movement of the mouse would make be go 180 degrees. Maybe the the movement is frame based instead of time based ? Kind of feels like it.
Wholesome game.
