I really like the concept you went with this one!

The comic feel is really nice and even the smaller maps like the horizontal forest feels satisfying to explore and pick up everything shiny. I honestly don't know how you did that, my best guess is that you took screenshots of the previous map and used it as parallax for the empty background, anyway, it's very well done.

It might have been axed to bits due to the time you had, but I can already see the potential if you keep polishing it after the gamejam is over. Even the fact that you went for multiple endings shows good vision for the game and all the different potions you thought out to include in the game (although it would be nice to have a wiki of them to unlock the one's we crafted already, maybe for the future *wink wink*).

Polishing here and there aside, I really enjoyed this one, well done!

Really appreciate your comment, thank you!

I was a huge fan of Comix Zone, so I was really excited to get that feature working with the “comic” like stripes and squares. Your guess is pretty good, version 1 of the plugin used a parallax screenshot to simulate the effect, but it didn’t work in browsers. The one in-game actually creates a new bitmap overlay with an “empty” square to create the window. It’s still a wip, there’s a lot of bugs to solve, specially on game saving/loading.

I was really bummed with how many issues the game ended up with, but I’m glad to see people enjoying it regardless. I’m definitely working on reworking it and restoring what was cut, and a recipe book is a must!

Thank you again for trying it out!

Oh wow, Comix Zone! You really threw me down nostalgia road right now, such a nice old school inspiration and very well applied. I'm sorry to hear about the restrictions you faced due to browser version but I'm glad you found a work-around for the submit.

Don't be bummed out, you were probably stressed on time and as a prototype serves it's purpose really well. Now if you're willing, you can take your time squashing those bugs and restoring everything that was cut and make something you're really proud of (not that you shouldn't already but I get that feeling that it could've been more).

Again, nice job!
