Hello dev! I played this game with a pal via the power of Parsec. The footage is actually from Oct 2023, I just sat on it for a long time. To be fair there's no mechanics to stop either player just standing still in neutral for eternity until the other player expires. Nice game otherwise though!

開発者の皆さん、こんにちは！Parsecの力を借りて、このゲームを友人とプレイしてみた。この映像は2023年10月に撮影されたもので、僕はただ長い間座っていただけなんだ。公平を期すために、どちらのプレイヤーも、もう一方のプレイヤーが息絶えるまで永遠にニュートラルでじっとしているのを止める仕組みはない。それ以外はいいゲームだけどね！

Hello, former poster here. I played this game with a pal via the power of Parsec. It's actually from Oct 2023, I just sat on the footage for a long time. 

CPU 3 had the championship in the palm of their hand with a 10 point lead and they BLEW IT.

It seems like you've uploaded your prior metroidvania game.

Included A Grave Mistake at 1:20:47 of my compilation of favs from this LD. Always good to see new output from you. :)

Included Resown at 33:36 of my compilation of favs from this LD

Included Jelly Rush at 14:46 of my compilation of favs from this LD.

Really satisfying movements from the masses of mini-blobs. Right amount of drama in seeing if they could suceed each level.

Nice game. Letting go of space to shorten the jump definitely made it a lot easier to make jump that the way JK did their jumping. 

A handful of failed jumps, but there were some very conveniently placed platforms that made it very forgiving.

Another excellent puzzler, everything after level 5 was a headscratcher so you really delivered some of your best here.

It's been a while since I played this but the only issue I recall was that I had no idea what I was buying when it came to the bridges in the store. Bridges, of course, but their uncertain placement on the map had me stratching my head if they were even mandatory at the time.

It did restrict the abilities to merely extra jump heights and dashing, but they were movement oriented in a game where moving felt good (though I had some issues moving at the beginning, they seemed to iron themself out).

Presenting the game with a wide zoomed out view was good too, as active gameplay still functioned as viewing your typical MV map without having to pause constantly.

The fog of war was a nice touch for keeping the exploration a mystery with the camera scope, but even within rooms themselves you had no idea of their enormity such as the big room towards the end with the single pixel platforms hovering around.

This all came together excellently.

Here's my gameplay. The wall ride was a little iffy, I couldn't tell when I was going to drop off the wall. I like the use of the fixed camera angle, keeps the mind thinkin gof what potential secrets could be *just* out of sight but we don't yet have the angle or ability to see for sure.

This was somewhat sinister feeling. 

Good stuff, a bit of a sudden end, but that's game jams for you.

I gave this a playthrough if that's any curiosity to you.

Just getting a black screen with the win 64 version

Here's the playthrough if you're looking for any feedback.  

Came across a visual glitch in this corner

Very nice

I'm all for a new approach at this point for the reasons colter has mentioned below.

Great work.

Good stuff, not a fan of the key resetting if it fell through the screen transition though.

Can confirm that this worked.

1) It's pretty cool that you can still dodge projectiles even when pinned into a corner, by pressing the direction and the dodge frames still being active even though you get bumped back.

2) When it comes down to just you and the eyes it can just become a waiting game until you hit the Action Phase, as they rarely approach the front.

3) Those guys with the staves/orbital lasers are the most annoying by far, which is great, since it gives you an enemy to prioritise. Though, almost like the opposite of the eye they have a habit of approaching the front line and getting shanked to oblivion.

There were two occasions where I had two functional spears on screen, one in my hand and one stuck in the walls that eventually merged back together if they both got to my hand.

Sure, I'll try to get around to it sometime this week.

SPOILER: I got the T-Shape box stuck around a moving platform. :( Oh well. Very good experience otherwise, for something based around intentional awkwardness.
