Things I liked
- The concept of the game is really super cool!
- The graphics are really great. The 90s style is super well done here! Congrats to the visual artist.
- Levels are short and don't drag on too long.
Improvements:
- I found the atmosphere kinda weird. It's kinda Silent Hill esque but it's not actually a horror game. There's creepy horror ambience but its a game about controlling little glowing cubes in order to get to a bigger cube. It just feels like those two concepts don't really match haha.
- The level design is very bare bones and they're pretty much just all variations of level 1.
- The cubes to place the zipline with move super slowly. Whenever I wanna move my zipline I have to wait so long. It would be better if they just instantly came into place.
- An in-game tutorial would've went a long way.
- Every level can be completed in the extact same way. You just walk up to the first baricade you see, place a zipline hovering slightly over it, then walk on top of the zipline and get to the end.
- You claim its a puzzle game but there are literally no puzzles at all.
I know I have a lot of criticisms, but that's beacuse I really do love this concept a lot. If you chose to take this project on post-jam, then I would love to see where it goes!
