Very nice :)
Thank you!
Really fun. Great work!
Thanks for playing Vim, glad you enjoyed! :D
Totally awesome game! losta polish, sound/music, simplistic art, cool puzzles, and lots of that game j u i c e. I think this could be a paid release. Overall awesome job. I bet you'll get into Jonas's video with this creation :)
Would really appreciate it if you checked out my game :P
Thanks! I hope I do but it's a small chance for such a simple game, and sure I'll check it out!
I liked the music! Great job on everything
Thank you! Took me 5 hours but it was time well spent! :D
Very neat concept and really good execution! Puzzles were fun to solve, and the presentation was very nice. The only really issue I see is that the game fits the theme very loosely. The core mechanics of the game revolves around the color switches and it works perfectly. However the "die to progress" part feels very forced and doesn't really add anything more to the experience.
Overall, really well-made and very polished game. Great job :)
Thanks for the feedback! Post jam I'll try my best to address this. :D
2 suggestions: make the movement a bit smoother (less physics, a lot faster), and make the transitions a LOT faster. However, this is an interesting and cool puzzle game and I like the premise! :)
Sometimes the screen transitions are a bit slow (not sure why.) I've got feedback on the controls and am going to change it after the jam ends. Thanks for the feedback and glad you enjoyed!
*Chef's Kiss*
This is a really cool idea, but it's a bit annoying to play since the movement is pretty slippery, which makes it hard to judge when to jump and makes it very easy to fall off when you're trying to land on a small platform. It would also help if it were a bit easier to hit switches since there were a few times were I thought I'd hit one but was just a bit too early or too late. But overall it's really solid for 72 hours of work!
Glad you enjoyed! After the game I'll try and fix some stuff up. :D
if you manage to get to level 69 you're a nice gamer big brain
Big brain time
I liked the simple idea and bright colors
Glad you enjoyed!
Very nice game, though it lagged a bit on my end. Great idea.
Probably because of the particles, sorry about that! :P
I had alot of fun, the game was very clean and polished. I liked the music and sound effects
Thanks for the feedback and enjoying the game!
Visually it looks nice, movement feels great, but I don't see how you implemented the theme.
Thanks for the comment! I used the theme by you having to die to progress, usually in games when you jump into a spike you take damage or die, but I used it that you progress onto the next level. :D
Pretty nice game! The sound design is really good, the concept is easy to understand and can make for some good puzzles. Also despite just being shapes, the visuals work quite well. I think the implementation of the theme is fairly basic, because you could put anything as the goal instead of spikes.
Thanks for the feedback!
Great game. I think it would have benefited from tighter controls, but the puzzles, sounds, and visuals are all super well done. Very impressive for just 3 days.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed! And making the controls tighter could open up lots more level ideas!
Cool puzzle game!
Thanks, Glad you enjoyed!
Good idea and sounds, But the start interface has a lot of stuff and confuses a little bit, but everything else is good
It was thrown together last minute for the sake of having a menu, after the jam I'll ty to refine it down. Thanks! :D
Very well made platformer with an effective visual style. The concept is pretty standard, but well executed and the sound design is top-notch!
I think I got soft-locked on stage 3 after failing the jump after the first switch, but otherwise a really good experience.
Thanks for the feedback! Also you should be able to press "R" to restart the stage. :D
I see that in the controls now, I think it's the only level where that's needed though, since most other levels have pits if you get stuck.
Quite an awesome game :D. This game fits the theme quite nicely, and it's really simple to understand! The simplicity of this game is a huge plus and the visuals are simple, yet really good! The music and SFX in this game are fantastic, fits the aesthetic really well! The game overall is really great and for your first jam, is actually quite an outstanding performance! The game is really polished and I haven't run into any bugs!
Some tips I would like to point out to improve the game are:
- Decrease the transition time, it takes quite a while to transition from one scene to another.
- This tip I would recommend applying to future platforms if you plan on making one. I recommend adding jump buffering and coyote time (If you're confused about what are these, YouTube has plenty of videos explaining them). Adding these will make controls feel much more fluid.
Overall, a simple, fantastic game. I enjoyed it a lot!
Keep it up!
Wow so much amazing feedback!
I was thinking about the transition time being too long and to be honest I was going to try to implement coyote time but ran out of time. :P
Thank you so much for taking the time to play and give feedback, glad you enjoyed!!
This game is amazing
It's a really nice Puzzle Platformer with really nice controls
The colors, particles and level design are really simple but really cool
Good job 👍
Thanks! Went for gameplay over visuals as I didn't want to overwhelm myself on my first game! :D
Shout out to the controls screen also letting you try them live right there. Good audio and visuals. The glow and sound queues are a great match. Nothing to complain about, it's a simple looking and fun puzzle platformer.
Yeah you don't really see many games doing it. Definitely think it improves player experience!
