I found it pretty difficult to kill the bugs since they all clumped together when they were chasing me. I think it would be cool to see different movement patterns for different enemy types; for example, a bug that shoots something at you from a distance.
I liked that you had a tutorial that made your game easy to learn; great game!
Oh, lol, that's got to be what it was! I must have mistaken the drop shadow on the characters for the button being toggled (the button didn't turn green). I'll give the game another try now that I know how to press the buttons :)
I really like your game, and the visual glitch effects are awesome!
One thing that I found a little difficult (on the harder puzzles) was trying to remember the spatial layout of the maps and objects in both dimensions. I think that it would be helpful to be able to peak into the other dimension to see what's there or to have some sort of cross-dimensional shadow to track objects across the dimensions.
On itch.io you have the download flagged as supporting macOS. However, I can't seem to find the mac application file. Is this game only available for Windows?
Great game idea with linking multiple controls together in a malfunction!
The main thing that I think could be improved is giving the player more time to see and react to the malfunction blocks. That way, I would have enough time to plan out what malfunction I want to select (but a short enough time that I have to make a quick decision about which block to pick).
I think this is a great idea that has the potential to lead to some really interesting malfunction combos!
I really like your game idea (and fun story/theme)!
As the game is right now, it's not very difficult to win. I wish that there were multiple goals throughout the house that only a specific character could accomplish. This would help make it so that Bob and Alice are forced to cross paths more often.
I really like the concept behind your game! It's a fun combination of solving the puzzle and having the skill to execute the solution!
If you want to keep working on the game after this jam, here are a few things that I noticed:
It would be helpful to have a visual indicator for how close the cubes need to get before one explodes
I found a bug where I was able to move one cube inside the other when moving up a step into the other cube
The camera perspective on some of the puzzles was a little confusing; for example, it's hard to tell the vertical distance between two platforms that are not connected by any blocks
I'm playing on Mac, and clicking the menu's 'play' button doesn't seem to do anything. Am I missing something, or is the mac build broken? I tried other buttons like the spacebar and enter key to no avail :(
I really like your game's aesthetics; I hope I can get it working and play the game :)
Hi, you have the download on Itch.io marked as Mac, Linux, and Windows. However, I think the download only includes a build for Windows. Am I missing the mac file somewhere?
I had a bit of trouble playing with only my keyboard (can't point & shoot with my laptop's trackpad). I think that the keyboard movement would be a little more intuitive if the player shot in the direction they're facing instead of using the arrow keys to aim.
Because of the controls (and/or my lack of skill), I wasn't able to explore the game as much as I wanted to. Really cool concept though, and fun presentation!
I don't know if I was playing an old version of the game (I downloaded the Mac version), but I don't think the button on the second level did anything when I pressed it.
Wish I could've made it further; I like your game's concept and art style!
