Simple and sweet game, but the artstyle is all over the place, hand-drawn, simple pixel shapes, old tv screen.
That was rather nice actually. Short, sweet and calming. The aesthetics were nice and peaceful and I loved how the character looked as hand-drawn as possible lol. The levels of the game looked a little out of place wrt the backdrop though. I kind of wish the platforms in the levels also looked sort of handrawn.
Maybe something similiar to the style of the player would have been perfect. Badly drawn rectangles or something of that sort. I'm also not sure if this was intentional but something about having the cube rotate by a step was so satisfying lol. The implementation of the theme is rather nice actually. I thought it was a little frustrating at first having to go back to the previous level, but it made sense and was used nicely when you got to the end and had to get to the first level.
The music was great as well, not really any faults wrt sound. This was a great entry overall and I honestly enjoyed it. Well done :)
Really well done game, but for the love of me I can't find the exit. I tried going back to the first level, just on top of the door at previous to last etc., nothing seems to work? Is there something i'm missing or is there a bug
Really cool game! I love the visuals (We have similar visuals :D)! Very simple, short and sweet. Keep it up!
Super love the visuals, got a bit confused on that goal screen but overall I super enjoyed my time! Love the music a ton, perfect choice.
I really like the idea of these kind of "Elevator" Games, where failing sends you down, and winning sends you up, i just wish it was explored more in here, and i think the VCR effect was kinda unneeded if the game is already taking place on a notebook. Good game!
Game is very cute and good, I didn't understand the level where it says to go back where you came from
Good Work!
Thank you for playing! SPOILER: Actually the aim of the game is to escape the notebook, in the end it is revealed that the exit is on the first level, so you'll have to go back. I should have made it more obvious.. you're missing the best part of the game so perhaps you can try and rate the game again?
You wont get why the game fits the theme of the gamejam, unless you play it!
I dont really want to spoil too much, so i wont say much.
The game has nice visuals and sounds, is very polished and the games mechanics are verg good comunicated without saying it with text.
In general its a very good game, Good Job :)
At first I wasn't sure how the game fit the theme, until I got to the end and realised. I liked the idea of having to get the key and backtrach to the start. I also liked the art direction and the music fit well with the game.
The idea is awesome. At first i thought it was just a normal platformer but i was actually amazed when i got the idea of the game!
