Rick and Grant played your game for a little bit on stream, but I wish they'd spent a little more time with it, they barely scratched the surface. I've done one highlights video so far and yours is going to be in the next one, looking forward to playing it through again to record the footage

Nice! Glad you caught the first one. And yep! Took me a while to finish it though. That last phase is really tough so I tried to keep patient and exploit the Last Stand mechanic and eventually somehow made it through although I could hardly believe I'd beaten it. Ended up putting the full run on my channel. Watching the stream with Rick and Grant made me realize I'll probably end up making more than just three highlights videos, there are some really cool looking games in the game jam I haven't gotten to sink my teeth into yet. Hope you're having a good one!
Ah, great job! Sticking to the bottom level and firing up seems like the way to do it. I usually tried climbing to the top, which is way too difficult in the final phase. For me, anyway. :)
Every game that Rick and Grant played made me want to try them out, they jumped around so quickly (or got trapped in a single room...)
Yeah I don't know if it's possible if you don't stick to the bottom for the final phase unless you're really good at knowing when to drop down to the platform below which my caveman brain wasn't very good at. Yeah! Lots of interesting stuff, including a few of the games I'm putting in the highlights which made me happy, although I'd have liked to see them play a little longer (and not get stuck) on some of them. I'll probably use that stream as a jumping point for trying more games after I finish these first three highlights videos
I'm really happy I'm able to make talented devs like you happy with these highlight videos. I want people who make cool games to keep making cool games so there are more cool games in the world for people to play and for other people to check those games out and have a good time. Thanks for the first YouTube comment, I'm honored! I think that comments on YouTube can be absolutely vile but they can also be a tool for good and positivity (occasionally), and are useful for getting raw, unfiltered feedback since people tend to express their mind without thinking too hard there. Thanks for continuing to update this game and all the hard work you put into it, it really is a great game and I keep wanting to go back to it even though I have some work I have to focus on right now. Its gameplay really is both therapeutic and challenging, just talking about it gets me jonesing for another playthrough. It's so good. Thanks again and keep up the good work!
