There are quite a few games like that out there, but your game is definitely one of my favorites so far!
haha 341th on creativity was expected. But I'm very glad you enjoyed playing :)
I love the corporate-coaching theme xD Unfortunatelly there is quite a lot games with similiar mechanics, but this implements the concept perfectly, very polished and complete game :) Level design was great, every level was another puzzle to solve. Controls feels responsive and smooth. Visuals were really good and consistent with audio. Overall, really polished and good game :) Great job!
Brainstorming on game ideas isn't my strongest suit~ I knew there would be so many using this very same mechanic, so I knew I had to at least set mine apart with some style and polish, aside from another faceless block with spikes. I probably spent an entire day tweaking with gravity and movement speeds to get him moving just the way I wanted to, so I'm happy that you noticed that too :) Thank you so much for the great feedback!
That time spent on polish and tweaking definetely made the difference, good work :)
Very well done, the player character feel good and responsive, and you even added humor here and there which was perfect
Thank you! I know it's not much, but I knew I wouldn't win in creativity. So hopefully I could make up for it in other ways. Thabk you for playing!
Very nicely done! I loved the art style and level design a lot. You made a bunch of interesting puzzles and it was easy to stay engaged for the whole time. The sound effects were crisp and the music was a great fit too, even though it cut out somewhere along the way. I think it fit the theme really well and I love the whole "corporation" feel. Good job!
Thank you! Ah yes the sound bug, I've got it fixed! I'll update that when the jam ends (Can't believe it's only been a week). Thank you so much for the kind words and the positive feedback :)
Very cool game! I think this is one of the game with the most levels I've seen(good thing)!
Thank you!
I've the idea of using your old dead bodies for platforming a few times now, but this one definitely has the most character! I'm glad I didn't just play as a square. The visuals and color palette were nice, and the story was fun too!
Aw thank you :) I knew my idea wasn't going to be original, so I wanted to pour in the colors and add the vaguest of storylines~ Technically you do play a square haha. I knew I needed to keep that box vibe for the main character. Thank you for playing :) I'm happy you enjoyed!
10/10 I loved the visuals, the sounds, the gameplay. Seriously that was such a creative mechanic and GREAT implementation, I hope to have your coding skills one, also dear god that itch page is gorgeous!
Huge thanks for the high praise. My mechanic honestly isn't that creative, but I am really happy how it turned out at the end so thank you. If you ever consider switching to Godot I can offer some basic help :) and THANK YOU! It's only a small extra 30 minutes to get a good looking page, so I do want to try my best. Especially since you'll be playing on the browser. Thank you again :D
I'm looking into Godot! Thank you, if I need help I'll absolutely remember to ask, I'm gonna try my best to see what I can do. Sadly nothing I've done is convertible in any way. Also I've seen other people do the mechanic but wow you did it best.
Love The Game
cool mechanic
Nice visuals
Keep it up!
Thanks :)
Good concept, love the artwork and the colors. Some of those puzzles were really clever/challenging. I really dig the characters simplistic design. Great job! Check out my game if you can :)
I'm happy that you think they're clever! Knowing the proper solution makes it hard to guage how challenging your own puzzle is. He's a box! That's his design haha. I'll definitely check your game later :)
Fun little game! Love the style, and some creative levels!
Please check my game out if you get the time!
Thank you!
Oh definitely :)
Great concept and design !, simplistic yet elegantly executed. One minor correction that could have been done is the audio. I played this game with headphone, and it feels like the SFX & BGM moves along with the character i.e if the character moves from left to right the audio moves along with him from left headset to right and the BGM stopped playing in the final level.
As the character is always spawned left, I kinda feel my left ear ringing ../
Best wishes for the team and waiting for future updates !!!
Welp, it's just me actually. I've heard that comment a lot! But I think I've got it fixed already for after the jam :) Thank you for playin! And thank you for the wonderful comment :)
An insanely polished game. Even itch.io page fits nicely. Clever levels, not hard, but clever enough to enjoy beating them. There is a lot of similar games. But I think this is the best implementation of this mechanic I've seen so far.
I'm so happy someone mentioned my page! Yes I knew that there would be much competition with the same type of platforming. And I honestly didn't think I'd have enough time to pull off anything ambitious. So I tried extra hard to work on detail instead! Simple can be beautiful :)
Simple and thoughtfully designed levels! Great color scheme too. Well done thanks for sharing :)
Aw thank you for enjoying :D
Ha-ha! really cool game. I didn't understand the bug or the feature, but I got stuck under my corpse. Anyway, even that was fun. I really liked the game mechanics, sounds, and style. 5+ Excellent work.
Just don't get caught under yourself! It's supposed to "crush you" but I didn't want you to die to it. Thank you for the great feedback :)
I totally agree with my friend, @sadgoodman, here. The game is great. I just wanted to add that the concept itself might not be that original, but the way you presented it with nice visuals and humour makes the difference. Good job! I've encountered a couple of bugs, but, tbh, it is not that relevant as long as the game is fun to play.
Of course not! I'm pretty sure I played this kind of game in y8 or maxgames a long time ago. I knew I had to make up for it in someway. So I really pushed myself to go for simple, but pretty! Thank you nonetheless for the feedback :)
If it was to crash you, then it would be a way to off yourself without leaving a corpse behind. Might be useful for designing new levels
I thought of that but it felt counterintuitive? Death means death. I wanted there to be a clear difference being dying and getting stuck. BUT I do however plan to make a 'selfdestruct' mechanic for a later level.
It happened to me too XD
Fantastic work! Fun mechanic, presented in a comical way! The colour choice is captivating as well, and your geometry shapes fill everything nicely.
Really liked the fact you had to make a tower of your dead bodies to get out of pits XD
Since I am also a Godot user (even though I am still a beginner), I have some hints to offer, if you would have them (the trick is, you have to give up some of your secrets in return hehe).
Questions (that while I have a general idea, I am looking forward to listening to your solutions):
selection button and selected level 4, after completing it, it took me back to lvl1, instead of lvl 5. I still have no idea how to make a level selecting menu myself (I assume you make a ton of Buttons and make them each one lead you to a scene each). So then I suppose you have an Autoloaded scene that handles the number of the current scene? And it just doesn't get updated through this method? (I don't know, but I would like to learn so please share!)
Thank you and well done! Any questions you can answer (whenever you have time, no rush) would be fantastic!
Oh wow what a hefty comment. Time to make my own! Thank you a lot for the great comments! And thank you doubly for them great tips! No secrets here, we all need to learn and get stronger together (whoops wrong game jam). Let's see what I can offer :)
You can get a hold of my twitter on my itch page. It's not really active but don't be shy to send a message! I know that's a lot of information to take in, so if you want to clarify some more you can contact me there!
Nice game! It was a pretty simple concept, but it worked well and the puzzles were well designed around it. There were a few bugs though, but nothing gamebreaking, so that was alright. I liked the graphics too, especially the background of the level - it used a really pleasing colour palette, so good job. The sounds were alright as well, although most of them came out of only one speaker which may or may not be intentional, but it was a little annoying regardless. Still, it was a fun game, so great work on it!
Orange and yellow are my favorite colors so I'm really proud I pulled that off. If you can list out some of the bugs that would
I have to pay more attention to the audio problems. And I should test with headphones/earphones too.
Thank you for the wonderful feedback!
Hey, so a few of the bugs I noticed:
Obviously they're all minor things that don't affect gameplay all that much, and it's still a well polished game for a jam, but if you're looking to fix some of them then there you go!
Ooh thank you!
Thank you! I'll try and get them fixed post jam (along with another set of levels incoming) Thank you!
I really enjoyed playing this game. The art style is simple but has so much soul and I like how much mileage you get from a simple mechanic. All around congrats on a game well done!
Aw thank you! I really wanted to make the colors vibrant! Since a previous game of mine looked a bit dull. Thank you for the great comment :) It's really great to hear!
I had a feeling someone would make a game like this, nicely done, I liked the humorous tone of writin and the puzzles were varied.
Ooh! I'm glad you liked the humor. I was trying to go for Portal humor, I dunno if it came through though. Thank you for the great feedback :)
Cool concept, bright visuals and nice audio! Great job!
Thank you!
Fun game! Final level was a titch awkward to pull off, but a lot of fun!
Thank you! (If it's worth anything, I'm trying to plan at least another set of levels after the jam so It won't be so short. at 9 levels. )
