Thanks!

Got the new keyboard today and this is the first game I played! Really got to try the thing out haha. Love this game. Love the metaness, totally works for the actual theme. Graphics are perfect for it. The actual gameplay mechanic is really unique, and so satisfying to get right!Thought my touchtyping skills were better than they were though.. Still working on my high score. Really great stuff!

Thanks so much for the kind words! Really glad you enjoyed the game this much. I made it on my own (was a busy month!) - my main goal was for people to enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed making it haha, good to see I had some success on that front! Cheers : )

Thanks!

That's insane! I was doubtful whether that mode was even possible.. that's some serious good reactions!

Thanks for playing. New keyboard on the way so will try your game later in the week. Cheers!

I really liked this! Writing is great, love the concept, great job!

Thanks! Glad you liked it!

Incredible art, amazing execution. Very good job!

The concept is just hilarious, take on the theme ingenious, and the gameplay doesn't disappoint either, very good entry! 

Aesthetically spellbinding! Fun to play too, very good entry!

Thanks and thanks for playing! There are indeed strategies that involve finding a spot and then waiting for a good time to move. On reflection I should probably have made the enemies spawn from the top too to avoid this, but it's maybe good to have an option to play like this

Thanks! Glad you liked it

Shooting and movement feel really tight in this. It's been said before but the enemies were a little unforgiving. I think maybe a slower start to get used to enjoying blasting a few of them before being thrown in the deep end might have been nice, but lots of potential here and the FPS mechanics feel awesome. Good job! 

So impressed with this! A game that genuinely feels like it was made in the early 80s, rather than a nod to a game from then, is something you rarely see. Also massive hats off for doing it in javascript. 5 star entry. Top work! 

Haha glad you liked it! Thanks loads for playing :)

I assume you mean the music while in the house/garden area? All music is credited on the game page, with where that music appears, so you should be able to find a link to it there anyway. :) 

Cheers! 

Really liked this, love the 2D graphicsin the 3D world. Relaxing to play, enjoyed the dancing puzzle at the end, was satisfying to finally solve. Very good job!

NEVER to be confused with Sutton Waldron indeed! Haha.

I'm originally from Essex. Not been to Saffron Walden in years but, as I remember, it was EXACTLY as depicted in this game ;)

Really glad you liked it!

Thanks for the detailed reaction! Really glad you're into the game. Understand the octopus can get quite full on, if you manage to get the Wildgun you should be ok with them...but might take a good sushi or chilli run (with upgraded underpants)  to save for it. As for the UI, yeah, I suck at UI, really wanted it to be better for this jam but it's still indeed a bit naff. And some Canvasses should be scaled in a different way. I decided to leave it at the 'that will do' stage a couple of days before the end of the jam. The sounds, and the balance of what to use and how frequently, was also something I wrestled with. It came out like this but I understand that some of the sound might grate a little. 

Thanks again for reviewing the game! You can continue now from the main screen if you want. There's an end to the game and everything, but understand you've invested an hour and there's a lot of games to play in this jam! 

Cheers

Great to hear! Thanks!

Love the game description! Thanks for playing, hope you get back to it. That's why I added the autosave, you can continue where you left off (or the last bed time you left off), if you want. There's an end and everything. Might take about an hour total though (I speedrun it in 30 mins), so understand if that's a bit of an investment! 

Very tightly designed game. Art and sounds work perfectly, puzzles are challenging and satisfying to solve. Great job.

Liked this a lot. Very grim, in a good way. At first I thought it missed music, but then I realised the lack of music adds to the atmosphere. Art is really cool and unique, narrative darkly comic. Good job

Thanks for playing! And thanks for the Toejam and Earl comparison, I'll take it! :) 

Beautifully made game. Art is superb, narrative also. Loved the final text. Very good job

I love the art, and the combat animation. I feel player jumping could be more snappy, and there should be some clarity on what the player needs to do. I wandered around for a while and killed some enemies, and that was fun :) but after a while I didn't know where to go next or why. But generally a decent entry with nice graphics

I really enjoyed this. Very beautiful, the way the scene is set. Art is fantastic, as is the writing. I would maybe have liked some slightly clearer tutorial woven into the narrative certainly for the vitruvian man bit, as I was doing what what I though was needed and nothing was happening. But could progress anyway and got to the end. Very good work

Well made, simple game. The ambience was very nice. Getting a strong Rowan Atkinson vibe from the Adam portrait :) Puzzle at the end was simple but effective. Good job

This is clever and well-executed. Very tricky! On every level the music got to the end and left me there retrying in slience haha. I think maybe checkpoints along the levels would be nice, but then again that would take the edge of the tension, and it's supposed to be a tense kind of precision platformer, so maybe not! Loved the art, and the music (until it abandoned me). Very good job!

Great idea. It is very novel and lends itself to a lot of interesting scenarios in more complex levels. I'd like to see more, great job! 

Great fun! Though I'll admit I played it for about 1/2 hour without fulfilling one order. Couple of times managed to make what they'd asked for before they disappeared, gave it to them, and they said 'that's not what I ordered'. Was quite satisfying to then throw it all at them though. 

Really like the vibe here, it is hilarious. Even the woman's walk in animation. There were a couple of noticeable bugs (talk to the customer and it locks movement til you talk again, camera reset about 1 or 2 seconds after the boss tells you to work faster), but I think with a tutorial on what's expected of you for each order, maybe one that just runs you through the first order with a check list, and then leaves you to it, it would be something I'd definitely want to play out to it's conclusion. Just didn't feel myself making any progress and wasn't sure what I was doing wrong! 

Also funny to see another food-based, hallucination-based entry in this jam. Oddly only obvious food my game is missing is burgers! 

Good job all in all, was a lot of fun

Very pretty looking game! Like the atmosphere a lot, and the kind of interconnected world. One thing for me, with this kind of platformer, is I like to have air control. So that I can still move left and right when I'm in the air. Makes it feel like I have more control. Could be just me, but in all good job!

Thanks for playing, glad you liked it! 

Very cool game! Generally think it's a winner. I think the only thing I'm missing is maybe checkpoints where the difficulty ramps up, maybe speed increase and/or more obstacles. Also (small point), because of how slow the depth amount rises, it feels like the submarine is really small! Maybe if this increased faster then it would give a cool feeling of depth. Either way, thought this was a really good entry, got to about 33m. Good job!

Good job. I think these controls work really well. I also would have liked more! I think it would be fairly simple to procedurally add more levels with the obstacles becoming more frequent and it becoming more challenging as you progress. Good entry.

I love this! Such a novel way of presenting a kind of dangerous dive scenario, very unique gameplay, genuinely tense. Great game!

Very good entry! Very intuitive to play,  like the twist of the parts that kill you, keeps it interesting. Great job! 

Ah thanks glad you like it and thanks for playing! 

Ah really glad you like it! And you're very nearly there! Thanks for playing!

SPOILER ALERT DON'T READ ON PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T PLAYED! No it's not possible! Once you 'catch' it it pulls you under and that's the end of the game, so congrats on completing it! :) Thanks for playing and glad you enjoyed it!
