The link isn’t invalid. Are you sure you haven’t been kicked or banned?

Yeah that’s fine. Just make sure you can get a web export. Search up a good tutorial on how to do this.

You get a special role on the discord. Maybe eventually I can get a cash prize together, but the role will be all for this time.

(The real prize is the experience 😉)

Let the games begin! 🎉🎮🌟

Fun, but the bullets disappear after firing like 5 and I don’t know why.

My PB is 170

Do I smell a BOI remake 🤨

Tricky, but also very good levels! Great job!

A 1v1 mode would be awesome! (def worth more than $1.20, I paid $5 for it)

we’d

Yay it’s free now!

Love it! 💖

PLEASE Make this an EXE or Play in Browser game!

Fun! Love the art and the controls are fun when you get used to them.

That’s ok, I just don’t like it forcing me to download opera tho.

Yes!

What do you have in mind?

Any misc thoughts about the theme or twist you would like to share? Post them here!

The game freezes whenever I touch the ground, I can barely even play it. Even after closing the tab, the music continues for a bit and it has some pretty bad performance for a browser game. I just wish I could play this, it looks so cool!

I like it but some of the stuff does not work and it is really weird when you go into the alternate dimension as down is jump (as it is flipped) but the left and right keys feel unnecessarily flipped and it is really confusing for me. Also I sometimes go way to fast and just skip the entirety of the underside map and wind up flying to the far right of the map and becoming stuck. Other than that I like the game, but it could use some sound.

(Also check out my game 😀)

Yeah basically my experience

lol

Thanks!

Yeah that’s what I was going for, thanks for playing it 👍

Wow you just had to use a G Develop starter project and make it even worse. Doesn’t even fit the theme like why even join the jam?

Wow, thanks! Means a lot 💖

Wow! Such a fun and interesting concept! I love it except that collecting the orbs late game is really tricky and not that fun and the movement can be a bit weird sometimes. Besides that this game made me chuckle at just how absurd it is, great job!

I like it! It’s fun and works well with the theme.

I think you could have also made the paddle shrink without the need for a health system or the hearts could be controlled by the ball as well. I also found it a little to hard early game with the lasers and everything and I think you could have spiced the visuals up a bit more. Also I don’t think there was a real need for a main menu as it was just a start button, and the game doesn’t auto-start when you load up the page (for me at least).

Wow!

Thanks!

Thanks! No, please don’t call the number as it is one I randomly came up with and idk if it is someone’s ACTUAL number. I may make an actual phone number linking to an ARG when I come back to the game after so maybe look out for that if the number ever changes or I update the game (follow me if you want to see that ig).

Thanks for the feedback, I will get to fixing those bugs!

I’ll work on that in the post-jam version, but I am glad you enjoyed it overall.
