With the color palette and post processing one of the best looking games of the jam for sure. Very coherent style and pretty cool core mechanic. Feels quite polished and well put together.

I just wish you would have followed through on the "last level" topic a bit more. The boot up sequence where you see that the last level is loaded with 3427 errors or something like that is a great and super intriguing introduction but then after that it feels like the game doesn't really go with it that much. Yes it's hard as hell, yes it has a couple of glitched blocks here and there but you could have went way more all in on your idea I think. Tons of enemies, some of them maybe even glitched so they can't hurt you anymore or glitched in a way you where you can't get past them and you have to cheat your way through the level by glitching through walls... :D

Either way, great game. Well put together. Nice, nice. :)

I think the main cause of me not leaning far enough into the 'last level' idea was mostly down to time and resources. If I was not working by myself, or had more than 72 hours, then I would have had the time to add more enemies and rooms that play to that glitched concept. I even had the idea of adding a boss monster that got more glitched/broken the longer you lasted. But since I was by myself, I decided to limit the number of enemies so I could explore loads of different placements and combinations, and even then wasn't able to completely explore all that I had.

But thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it even if it wasn't what you were hoping for.

The solution here would have been to make a smaller level with fewer different enemies.... :P
But I totally get what you're saying. I agree that with a bit of additional time on your hand the result might have looked entirely different. :)

I really like the opening presentation! Very cool indeed! ^ ^ Very cool gameplay concept, although I did find it difficult to control the player... wall jump in particular. Overall, pretty cool game.

This is a really fun game, with great visuals and sounds. The only problem i have is the sudden change in difficulty

Submitted(+1)

Cool premise and excellent visuals. The glitch mechanic was fun once I figured it out. Awesome work!

Submitted(+1)

I really like this! I don't know how you did this so fast. Only critique is the difficulty spikes.

Submitted(+1)

This is one of the best game gameplaywise i've played , it really look like  a finished game , i hope you will be able to explore the first level in a future update maybe?

I like the art style and how there was no cooldown on the dash so you could dash around the levels.

Please take some time to rate my game.

Great game! Love the concept and graphics and sound! The game is a bit hard though (you must get this a lot). Nicely done!

Submitted(+1)

Very good entry.
Sound design is great, art is very ,very good (I looove this retroish pixel style !).
It is a 'simple' (if I may say so) platformer game, with cool mechanics.
I found it a biiit too hard to be perfectly honest, but maybe it just needs time to get the hang of it !

Overall, I had a very very good experience, take my stars, they're well deserved !

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Difficulty is something a lot of people are bringing up, and I think that's due to both time constraints and the testing mostly being done by me who got skilled at my own game. And it's perfectly fine you calling it a simple platformer, it is meant to be!

This is the best game on the game jam from the games I've played today. I've got to the checkpoint on your last screenshot. I've found the Vessel (Hollow Knight reference). HK is my favourite game, so I really liked the reference and the art of it. But the following room is too hard for me:


The previous ones are hard as well, but I've started dashing upwards and reached the checkpoint and the hollow knight reference. The last 2 checkpoints I've reached were really confusing. The game started branching too much and I wasn't sure where to go. But still the best game so far! Great art, great audio, satisfying dash feature. You could've made a wall climbing instead of the sticky walls, but it's not big deal. You did a great job. Did you make this alone?

5/5 WOWIEEEEE

Developer(+1)

I'm glad to hear you managed to find the Hollow Knight easter egg, I was unsure anyone would be able to find that! And if you want to get through that room, you have to constantly glitch forwards fast enough to avoid the orange enemies. Yeah I did make this alone, that's probably why the level design isn't as great as it could be due to time.

Let me know if you get past that room (it's the last room), and if you're able to find all 5 easter eggs!

Nice one! I love it! Super challenging and amazing presentation! Well done!

Submitted(+1)

Very challanging but hooked me enough to make me play to the end. Found 2 easter eggs on my first run.

Developer

Thanks for playing, and for completing as well!

Submitted(+1)

I really liked the visuals of this game, as well as the matching 8 bit sound effects! I also thought that the jump mechanics were really good! It is quite a difficult game, but very fun!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah difficulty seems to be a common theme among responses.

One of the best games I have seen this Jam. Very nice art and animation.


The level difficulty ramped up too fast with too little checkpoints imho. I got frustrated.

Overall an amazing submission!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! If I do revisit this game I will definitely refine the levels so they're not so challenging.

Game feels really good, nice visuals, had fun playing it. I would like to have more checkpoints since im really bad at it and was annoyed a lot while playing it. I like it overall, great job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! I didn't want to have too many checkpoints but I do understand my game is quite difficult, so I hope it didn't deter you from finishing!

Submitted(+1)

Sadly, due to my lack of time and my will to play and rate as much games as i can in these few days i abandoned finishing your game. But what I've managed to see was more than enough to leave a positive mark on me. Rated pretty good!

Developer(+1)

That's fine! Glad my game left a good impression from what you did manage to play of it then

Super cool plat-former.  I liked the wall jump and the jump dash.  It is hard but not annoying,  great job submitting a game~ Please check out my browser game when you can.  I see why you had the R reset button too hehe.

Nice Game ;-) simple, viusal apealing, fun expirance

Submitted(+1)

Fun idea and tasty mechanics, I liked it!
A  bit too difficult, maybe - more checkpoints would've been appreciated, especially in a jam setting.
Otherwise a lot of fun!

Alright, here's my feedback on your game:

  • Great retro art, music and sfx's.
  • It wasn't mentioned under the controls that you can dash with space.
  • There should really just be an (invisible) checkpoint at the start of every frame/room. This is too difficult for just the introduction rooms.
  • I was able to dash into the wall (stuck) in the room where you introduce the enemies that shoot three fire balls.
  • The enemies that move around in half circles are just too difficult.
Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

  • I don't want to mention the glitch ability as I want people to figure that out on their own, since it is a 'broken' feature. I just hope people will figure it out through trial-and-error.
  • The intention was to make the game very difficult since it is meant to be the last level of a 'full' game, but I understand that I may have made it a little too difficult regardless.
  • Since you're able to glitch through walls, avoiding getting stuck in a wall is near impossible for a game made in such a short time. That's why I included the restart button. You can glitch into any wall anywhere in the game (though some walls may be hiding a secret behind them...)
  • I can get past the hoppers fine. Be patient, or just glitch over the top of them.

Super simple and a fun mechanic!
