I’ll try to give yours a play when I get the chance!

Excellent bullet hell mixed with great aesthetics and a fun story. Great game/entry!

Yes, unfortunately we ran out of time creating the mask for the final scene for the painting, hopefully it didn’t detract too much from your enjoyment. Thank you taking the time to play (and provide a helpful bug report)!

Good interpretation of the theme and I really liked the color palette/atmosphere that you went with.

Really satisfying fish scaling. I loved the variety of sea creatures to feed and the deep fish to find! Solid gameplay loop with just enough variation, nice work!

Great sound effects, I didn’t hear any music, but if there was some and I somehow missed it please let me know!

Aesthetic is fantastic. Strong level design that nicely increased in difficulty. At some point I got some sort of ability to hover? It wasn’t really explained and I never quite figured out exactly how to use it, sometimes it felt a bit buggy. So my only suggestion would be to add some explanations when introducing new mechanics.

Excellent job, nice work!

Great gameplay for a speedrunning game. Easy to understand but hard to master. Nice work!

I’ve not played anything quite like this. It made my brain feel odd in just the right way, similar to the psych evaluations where you are asked to say what color the word is and not what the word actually is. My first completion took about 2:12. Great work!

Cute art style and interesting platforming mechanics. For future projects I would suggest bringing in the mechanics a little bit more slowly. For example, it seems like the first jump required either pixel perfect timing, or to use the grip-onto-the-wall mechanic but it hadn’t been introduced and wasn’t obvious. If the first grip the wall requirement wasn’t over a zone that could kill you that would make it less frustrating to learn. Nice work, cool project (and great name).

Feels like a great speedrun centric game. Just enough mechanics to make it interesting while not overloading the player. Nice work on this!

Super fast paced, with satisfying pickaxe mechanic. Nice work!

Loved the vibe you created with this entry, great work!

Very challenging, even with the pause mechanic! The keyboard controls didn’t work quite as well as the virtual joystick. I really enjoyed the aesthetic aesthetic of this. Nice work, great entry!

Controls were a little finicky and I had a hard time making jumps consistently. This seems like a good concept, a little bit of mechanical tweaking and I think you’ve got something pretty nice here! Great work.

I found this to be great fun! It definitely had the “I could go a little faster” effect and I found myself playing through multiple times. Nice work!

It’s meant to be some of the challenge, but not overly. The issue is made more difficult in that a larger screen makes for larger targets. Thank you for the feedback, I’ll take this into consideration if I continue this project or make new games that utilize this mechanic.

This is super helpful advice as someone completely new, thank you for taking the time!

I’m having no issues on Firefox or Chrome. I’m not actively maintaining this game so if you want to try out one of those other browsers it might fix the issue for you.

Thanks for the detailed feedback, these are great points and concepts that I’ll try to pay attention to in future projects!

If you’re interested there is a fixed version available here that solves the fuel bug: https://billbobphil.itch.io/isolation-island-fixed

Thanks for playing!

What a lovely experience and message. Nicely done!

Interesting core mechanic and control scheme. It feels like there is a high degree of mastery that is possible. Nice work!

In terms of feedback my only suggestion would be to consider keyboard inputs, mouse sensitivity can vary pretty wildly and that meant that I could be controlling the game while my mouse had drifted to another monitor.

Great entry.

Peaceful music was a perfect backdrop against my ever increasing insanity. Its tough to portray the theme in this way and I think you did a great job.

Art was lovely and the minimal puzzle solving was just enough to keep me engaged. Nice entry, great work!

Interesting control scheme for a platformer/puzzle game. The text dump at the beginning was a lot to take in so I ended up skipping it, I’d advise trying to break it into shorter pieces if possible in the future.

Cool entry, nice work!

Clever and well executed, nice work!

Awesome to play another Godot game! Simple but effective top-down shooter. I found the fast moving teal guys particularly challenging, but I had fun, I think I made it up to about round 9 on medium difficulty.

In terms of improvements I think some gun variety would help keep the gameplay feeling fresh after a few rounds.

I enjoyed my time with this, nice work!

** The submitted version contains a game-breaking bug **

Fixed version available at: https://billbobphil.itch.io/isolation-island-fixed

• Fuel game was being reset before rewarding you the resource, soft-locking the game.

I talked to the gamejam hosts and I was told I’m free to link to a patched version of the game. If you want to play further it is available here:

Thanks for playing! Looks like I introduced a game breaking bug in the dying hours of the jam - as you said, shame!

Interesting take on the theme and lovely art, nice entry!
