Sorry to hear that there are issues with the viewport for you - would you mind letting me know which browser you are using, and what your screen/monitor resolution is? Also - did you play the game in the itch.io randomizer frame or directly from the game's itch page (without the randomizer frame)?
Edit: resolution was fixed to 1920x1080, so it was probably too big for some browser/monitor setups. its now way smaller by default and should scale correctly in fullscreen.
Very good, but the controls are somewhat confusing in the beginning, as almost every movement also pushes the avatar (which isn't the case for the later levels). I think if you'd add just one simple puzzle in the beginning where the walls are not enclosing the avatar (and thus it's more obvious that you're piloting the walls), it would be immediately more intuitive from the beginning.
Other than that, great presentation, puzzles (really good balance imo) as well as a lot of levels for only 48 hrs.
Tightly tuned, but also took me a while to realize I'm supposed to not press W while being boosted to conserve "inertia". I think there's a fuel-efficiency game also hiding somewhere in there.
Slightly disorienting was the camera often clipping into the models during the start/end of a level. Other than that, the last level was way too easy in my opinion, but I'm assuming it's because of time constraints so that's fine.
Bonus points for using a non-mainstream game engine!
Cool idea! Levels are interesting and clean. My only complains are that it's a bit slow-paced and that the bullets are rather hard to see (dark on dark background). Good job nonetheless!
Really hard to react to the character, especiall since the pipe movement ramps up.
Perhaps an indicator on the character on where he wants to go next, or some adjustments to how far the pillars are apart could make it less frustrating.
Really funny idea, great shitpost. I feel like there are some more potential jokes in there such as him being really good at lifting/pressing stuff but the level never requiring you to lift anything.
Very cool and funny concept! The only thing that frustrated me were the sneaking sections, as the guard's patrol paths are very tight, in combination with the relatively slow sneaking speed, and them spotting you even when they don't see you pretty quickly if you don't sneak.
The idea is great though, and visually really well executed. Sound is very moody too! Good job!
Had me hooked. Get it? Hooked? Love the improv-feel, the gameplay itself gave me strong flash-games vibes (golden era of browser games, change my mind).
Game might be even more fun in the winter, will try it again in a few months (its a diet thing).
Crazy polish! Looks really good! Puzzle mechanic is fun too!
Game-breaking bug though that I've found is that I think ceilings count as ground check, as I was able to just float on the ceiling by holding space - bypassing multiple sections. But thats completely fine for a gamejam!
The spacing can be a bit finicky at times, it feels more like I'm solving the puzzles through trial and error than by strategically thinking about their solution. Perhaps grid-based movement could help - assuming thats not intentional.
Excellent butter smooth movement. Also very distinct visually. Unfortunately didn't find a way through the level 4 door. Also, collecting all the ammo and seeing the abundance of health packs made me feel very well prepared and probably made the game a lot less scary as it could have been. Still very cool though!
Has to be the weirdest concept I've seen this jam. Strangely satisfying though, especially the popping sounds. Could use even more visual juice, really fun already though!
Being able to pull out your phone to play flappy bird is peak zoomer culture and the most original thing I've seen in video games in a long time. Well done.
Really cool! We did something very similar but with frogs and cars instead of 2d platforming/shooting. Using the mechanic for puzzles works really well too! Also insane polish, well done!
Really cool! We played with a similar idea, but the best we could come up with was some sort of idle-game. Turning it into wario-ware type game with mini games is really clever though! My only complaint is that the timer for the button mash minigame felt way too long. Did manage to crank out 300 bench presses though, so the hero better watches out.
Sorry to hear! The camera pans to where you're supposed to go at the beginning of each round. Ideally there should also be an indicator at all times, but we weren't able to implement that due to time constraints.
Very creative, original idea. Especially with the balancing part. Also very chill and zen, well executed! Could see this doing really well when expanded upon!
My expectations weren't that great during the first one or two level to be honest, but I honestly think its one of the best platform puzzle games I've played this GMTK.
The controls are a bit finicky at times but the puzzles felt surprisingly really good. Solutions were never obvious but also not frustrating (at least to me). The only QOL feature I'd add is a speedup button for when you have to wait for the dummy to come back to where you need him to be.
Really good job on the level/puzzle design! Impressive!
Yeah, ideally we wanted the car you're controlling to be highlighted somehow (outline shader or something), but due to time constraints we settled for a quick camera pan and zoom at the beginning of each round. Thanks for the feedback and glad you're enjoying the chaos!
Really funny concept! Really like the idea of a fish flopping around trying not to get hit. My only criticism is that I found it really hard to tell whether I'm about to be hit or not - 9/10 times it feels like the blade just goes through me? Maybe shadows on the blades would help.
I feel like if this is properly polished with some really wacky physics (and more japanese flavor) it could be a really funny time killer.
Neat and well executed! Did feel a bit repetitive after a while, perhaps a scenario on where you have to bring opposing kingdoms together to switch it up?
