The gap between cuteness and gore is so humorous. The art is pretty and the game feels good and juicy. Great job!

Yeah, eventually we decided the tilting mechanic was too finicky so you'll notice we stopped including it in the later puzzles. Perhaps a better idea would have been if the items only have two profiles (one for side and another for front/back) that made different silhouettes so the players don't have to mess around with the rotation too much.
Haha we ALMOST forgot to submit the game 😭 We we're too relieved with finishing it and uploading it on time to remember actually filling in the game jam submission form haha!
The objects are jam-packed with Jojo references, I'm glad somebody noticed them haha!
Anyway, yeah! Thanks for playing our game! We really appreciate it :)
Thanksfor playing our game!
We appreciate your feedback and agree with your that the verifying is a bit too strict. We would have adjusted it if we didn't run out of time, so we're definitely gonna update it once the review period is finished.
And what can I say, great people have good taste in main music 😎
It's a neat platformer, and I also liked that you have implemented options/settings.
I suggest trying these platformer techniques should you make more platformers in the future:
- Coyote Time - the player can still jump if they pressed the jump button a few milliseconds too late
- Input Buffering - if the player pressed jump a few milliseconds too early before they touch the floor, they will still jump once they touch the floor
- Horizontal Acceleration
Great job on your first game, I hope you make more in the future :)
I think this is a neat game idea. I enjoyed planning the web placements and got up to wave 13 before my eggs died.
The music, art style, theming, and gameplay feel cohesive and all contribute to building a gnarly gothic aesthetic. I think this could be polished and be a good game.
I do think being slowed down after eating bugs feels bad. Maybe it would feel better if the spider stopped altogether after eating and got a temporary speed boost right after.
It also feels bad that eating will only kill one bug even if there are multiple bugs on top of each other. I think it would feel better if every bug near your mouth gets eaten.
Great game, good job.
