thank you very much!!

Thank you very much, it was actually a mix of adding a slight angle to a prespective camera, as well as having the player and the foreground set pieces align with a plane that was rotated on the X axis such that at the point that you reach the top, your Z coordinate matches the mountain's.

The skip button has to be pressed before the timer runs out since the timer is supposed to be for the whole game not just for the build phase, that clearly was a confusing choice, and then there's a bug that the game doesnt end when the timer runs out and you were still in the build phase, so even more confusing.

But essentially if you'd like to try again, make sure you skip before the timer runs out, that way you'll be able to experience the other half!

Hated the devil one... But I did end up fixing the stupid scale yes ahaha.

Well very complete package and great mini games, loved the narrator, had a great time, aside from devil... Great job tho.

Oh noh, pink rectangle, worst ever nightmare, run for your lives!

Couldn't really find out how to beat that level with the glass bottle and the several sponges.

Loved the idea, creative puzzles, platforming controls could get a little more work for maximum good feelings, but honestly nice entry. Love the intro screen haha.

Great play for the graphics alone, its visually stunning.

I didnt particularly enjoy the movement tho, walking felt floaty (the downloadable version helps with this but not by much) she would rotate before moving in the direction I was telling her so that introduced an even bigger delay, and I'm not sure what's happening to the directions, the platforms are not at all positioned in the direction you walk in, and to make matters worse the jump sometimes would totally go off course, maybe the abbilitty to move while in the air would help a little bit with that.

Other than that I like the concept, lots of potential, just the platforming that needs some work. (oh and can we have skippable dialogs?) Great work tho!

Very stylish, art and animation was very interesting , although I had a bit of a hard time distinguishing which walls were walls and the dark/light ditinction could also be more evident. 

The platforming could use a bit of work, I lost count of the times I felt like the jump totally failed me, sometimes in terms of lenght others in terms of not jumping when i just fell off a platform.

But honeatly very interesting entry here, with a few points ironned out I can see myself getting lost for a long time exploring this weird/wonderful world of yours!

I loved the gameplay and the gliding, I was literally having the time of my live just jumping from isle to isle, though I had some problems with enemies getting clipped in the drilling stations and then I couldnt't kill em and also sometimes out the blue my mouse stopped working, maybe issues with the web version.

I really like the style too, think it works very well, would love to see an expanded version!

Good entry right here, feels quite polished with a fully fleshed out menu system music sound effects and great visuals, everything working.

The controls were well done albeit a little uncertain at times, too aggressive for my liking but I guess it feels intentional so I'll give you that!

I found myself wanting to have a way of rotating the objects, many times I had to resort to trying to intentionally clip the object on walls so it would rotate the way I wanted.

Liked the aspect of leaving us to our own devices, after hitting an obstacle I would surprise myself with ways of solving it that I wasnt expecting.

Liked the idea, would be interested in the full experience!

The hazzards could use a little more visibility, sometimes I died without understanding why, and I didn't fully get why the door sometimes didnt open, or why/how the yellow triangle would blip out of existence sometimes haha

thanks, those are some good points!

Well that was funny, I gotta say, one of the wackiest games I've seen, but it kinda works haha!

There were definitely lots of bugs, but damn, I honestly did like it, can´t even imagine what made you think of this.

Gameplay, when not stuck or bugged was actually quite nice, I would've liked to jump so I could dodge the magnificent trained bull just before he came in contact with me and dragged me with him, but wow I gotta say, I was really impressed with your camera work, it was really really good!

Models were funny.

Animations too.

Dialog was cliche enough.

Music I thought was quite good!

The cut-scenes, so good.

Overall it was ofcourse a little short, but I'm very impressed great work!

if you could take a quick peak at my game since the deadline is almost up it would be greatly appreciated haha! 😁

thanks a lot for the feedback! And it's cool that you made it work for Linux, I definitely overlooked it haha.

Won't forget about your game don't worry!

Hahaha, I really like the whole vibe, kudos to you!

I think on a more serious note it definitely need quite a bit of polish, the hazzards were a little hard to distinguish some times, I died a lot a the start before understanding exactly what kills you, the background is also a little to static and it would greatly enhance the experience if more animations were added. More levels also and variation in the level design, idk, with this base you really can go in whatever direction you please.

But overall, for what it is, I think you achieved your goal alright, everything works as it should, and made me laugh. Good one!

thank you, that's some good feedback right there!

thanks for the kind feedback, I've actually already moved on to a different overheat mechanic, it now takes into account the amount of shots fired per unit of time, but thanks for letting me know.

Honestly so fun haha.

On the browser version I had some laggyness on the camera and some bugs on the sound but I was having so much fun that I had to install the desktop version and yeah, much much better.

I don't really have much to say, when a game is fun, that's all you need. I would maybe add some goals, like a now you have to reach this amount of money to unlock X thing, maybe that would keep me glued to the game even longer. Really nice job!

I like the idea and theme, music works well, visuals are ok, pretty simple but could be improved quite easily, the levels seem very hard though, maybe I just suck a lot but it felt like every level had one if not more areas where you needed to take a hit in order to pass through, was that really the case or do I just suck the much xD.

Overall nice entry, maybe some tweaks to the difficulty but very complete otherwise, good work!

Ok, the visuals are good and the pixel art is really cool.

Sound effects were nice and the music was right in the theme of the game.

Gameplay wasn't super enjoyable for me though, but maybe you guys made it hard on purpose and I just suck haha, but I didn't like that he would jump on his own if I forgot the space bar down, that along with the enemies being hard to kill even though the lava is so fast that there would be almost no time to interact with them, and some fireballs they would randomly throw that blinked my screen and threw me out of the platforms made it feel quite hard to control.

Really cool procedural generation! I would maybe consider tweaking the platform placement just a little though, I died a bunch because of hitting my head on a higher platform when trying to jump, either that or the tone down the jump power, Im not sure.

But overall, this is quite cool, good job!

Ok, so, Main Character is very cool, I really like the whole theme and didn't fully understand the piece of bread in her mouth but I found it incredibly funny nonetheless, and the little sounds when she was charging the speed and jumping, really liked that.

Overall Graphics and models were good enough.

Music was very cool, but also very repetitive.

As for the gameplay, this was definitely the low point of the game, I like the idea and think it will turn-out amazing, once you can fix and rework some things, Sonic vibes all along, I used to love the 3D sonic games! But yeah camera was unplayable on keyboard and mouse, a little better on controller but still not very pleasant, movement was similar, felt a little too slidey and unexpected, I died I dumb amount of times because I was having a hard time judging jump distance and how much input to give. (Sidenote, I like the checkpoint system, with a few exceptions it would usually take me right back to where I was before, but I would like to ask that you lower the amount of time one has to wait before restarting, also I wish you could do the dash thing not only when airborne but also when in the ground).

From looking at the screenshots it seems as though I sadly gave up a little too early because it seems you had much more for me to look at. But as a whole this is a pretty creative and fun take on speedy 3D platforming, if you can touch up the gameplay, add some variation to the music, fix some keyboard and mouse compatibility and give us some more info on the story or plot of the game, I think it would make for a really awesome time! Great job, specially if you guys are new at this, quite impressive!

Thanks for the kind words, and yes the game is undoubtedly short 😅, we're hoping to change that in the months to come!

I think you forgot about the double jump cliche hahaha.

No but this game is honestly something, it made me laugh a lot, the amount of cliches and gameplay scenarios you were able to cram in this is just bonkers.

Tha art is very unconsistent and the gameplay is quite unpolished and you do have quite a bit of bugs allround but that's not the point of this, you managed to include every cliche you could think of, and made it playable in a month, that is impressive!

Thank you soo much for the kind words 🙏🙏🙏🙏

More than welcome to snoop around, just don't judge too much any spaghetti code you may find xD

Its a good start, I can see you pulling something interesting out of this.

HAHAHA thanks for encouragement!

haha thank you

Damn, this game was awesome, really really good.

- Graphics are beautiful, love the lowPoly cel shaded look, cinematics, ambiance, the whole vibe, freaking cutSenes.. HOW? xD

- Sound really impressed me, with the whole voice acting and everything, sounded way higher budget than most.

- Story was quick but cliche enough, I was really surprised at end, for some reason I really thought it was gonna be a woman haha.

- Horror part well done, the jumpscare was tasteful and not at all overdone.

- Gameplay, the played really well, puzzles were good, right on point, the kind that make you think a little but you get there easily enough. I just had two things here to point out, I died a bunch of time because the jump is a little too powerful on forward momentum, countless times jumped forward and the character went way over were I thought he would land, and the second gripe would be the shooting to have light, I liked the idea when it was first introduced inside right when you loose the torch, but after a while it just got irritating and I would die on purpose just to get more shots and try to understand the level, I think its creative and adds a new spin, but if it was me I would rethink it a little, maybe extend the time that the shot lights the scene or maybe give more shots or make the light stronger, I'm not sure, but something to let players understand the level without having to die again to do it.

Such a complete experience, extremely impressive!

Ok, I went to your git repo, but since you don't have the whole project there I can't exactly download and try it out on my own, but my advise to you would be to put a "Debug.log()" inside your Jump() method and then go back to the editor and try to jump a few times and check if that call is not triggering more than once, that would be my first guess. If so, you could make a global bool "canJump" and in place of calling Jump() in the update method you would set that bool to true, and then in the FixedUpdate() you would say if(canJump){ Jump(); }

I'm not sure if that solves it, but you could try it.

Thanks haha, that means a lot since I spent quite a bit of time experimenting with lots of different ways for the cannon shots to react and the recoil in order to make feel good to use. 

Still for a full game I'm gonna for sure have to tweak it some more and maybe limit certain aspects under unlockable abilities or something.

well I'm not sure how high you intended the jump to be but I would say mine were pretty strong, I can maybe later make a quick clip for you to check if that's what it is, either that or I download the project directly from git and take a look at things.

How did you code the jump? Is it a force being added, a velocity? Are you doing it in the update method or fixedUpdate() ?

sorry if I sounded harsh, it really is promissing I think you just have to touch up some gameplay aspects thats all!

Wow, this game is really cool.

- Artstyle, character design, environments and animations were super cool honestly really well done and creative all around! (even though there's some janky things you need to iron out, clipping sprites and positioning of idle vs walk on the main character).

- Music and overall sounds were very impressive and in the theme.

- Story was nice, lots of dark litterary vibes.

- Level Design was good, quite a bit harder than I initially expected. I felt the whole thing with the story pages always revealing a new gameplay ability was really well done.
One thing I should say is that the spikes were very hard to see, I died way too many times to spikes I had no idea were there, not sure if that was intended or not. Also I got my way around easily enough, never got lost for too long but there were times I asked myself what was the intended path forward, the little collectible fire things were good but I think you could improve a little on suggesting the next path forward.

-Gameplay was a little rough around the edges, it worked fine but I think you could still improve it a little bit, making it less choppy and more fluid and predictable, for me the wall jumps were fiddly and hard to follow through. I liked the torch mechanic and expected it to be more relevant, I think you could still think of other uses for it outside of just colleting the memories (maybe if you flash the enemies they get stunned for a second or something like that).

All in all, I'm very impressed, really good game and quite complete, when I finished it I was left wanting even more!

Very interesting, thanks for answering!

Thanks for the great feedback and suggestions!

One question I had when I was playing your game was if the pixelated look was from the models themselves or a shader/camera effect?

Fair enough! I had a similar problem in my game in which I had to decide just to focus on the first part of the ship, this made my game very short, but thw orher way around I wouldn't have time to include all the little details I wanted and it would've felt bland I think.

Thank you, yeah for sure, I was actually a bit concerned the cannon was too powerful for these enemies but the fun factor too over haha. We were actually planning on in the future making it metroidVania-esque were you'd startoff with just some basic abilities on the cannon and as you advance in the game you'd find/unlock certain powerups or perks for the cannon that you let you do more advanced stuff and get to places that you couldn't before. But for the jam, since our whole theme was of "Loose Cannon", we felt it appropriate xD.

Admittedly yes, revamping the sound is very needed.

Don't beat yourselves up too much, I am really impressed with what I played!!

I liked the artstyle, even though it was a little inconsistent, the dialog was fun and puzzles themselfs, especially the one with the banners!

Gameplay could improve but I thought it wasn't bad at all, having no pause or way of restarting other than refreshing the page and going through the whole starting section again was a bit of a pain and I did notice some less polished places on the sprite ordering as someone has already mentioned.

But all in all it was a fun one, really did like it, so much so that i retried a bunch of times until I could get out of the spikes room and went back to the starting area (i assumed that was the end). Good job tho!
