The Narrative component and platforming of this game were really polished, I really liked the vibe/aesthetic you created and the way the themes of loss were handled. The flash like graphics of the characters along with the music gave a really nostalgic feel to the game which sort of drove that even deeper for me, beautiful entry to the jam! 

Insane attention to detail in the narrative and a quirky cast of characters,  a bit of a bullet hell in the last round which made for some fast pace action, will have to come back and see how it plays out if I choose the differing narrative options! Cool stuff!

Thanks so much, I definitely put the most time into the art and music as this is something I am trying to get more polished. Appreciate your feedback and agree with all your points, thanks a lot for detailing it out will help me out with future submissions!

Thanks so much and appreciate you copping 100 deaths! That makes a lot of sense and wouldn't have been a difficult change, I feel like when developing it - the challenge of it felt fun at the time (of my 3am delusion), but after the jam I can see that its more of an exploitation of making the controls feel cumbersome rather than focusing on making the puzzle more engaging. Will take this feedback forward with me!

Really appreciate your kind words and feedback! any specifics for the level design? things I could improve on perhaps? this part of game design is quite new to me and I would be grateful for any ideas I could take forward! thanks

Thanks! Really glad you enjoyed it :)

Really appreciate that feedback, initially was thinking about how I didn't want people to accidentally hit it but can see how it could end up being way more annoying, if I decide to use this type of mechanic again I will definitely reduce the time to something tighter and more reasonable. Cheers!

really impressive entry, you managed to fit the game into the new criteria really well, great additions to an already solid submission, killing it! (insert another bug joke here)

loved getting that old man his blue yarn hahaha, art was a stand out here for sure! good stuff

puzzle design is brilliant and there's no better feeling than mastering the controls in this and then moving around seamlessly especially when there's callbacks to patterns. really like how you navigated the task and transformed a winning title into something even better!

Really polished, Great Entry with a solid narrative, although heart breaking in my case seeing me dogs name on the grave but gave me a good laugh! Keen to see how the game balance could progress further, I found myself a little OP in the last few rounds with all the upgrades I chose (that doesn't really factor into the ranking) just thought might be some nice feedback. Hope to see you in round 3!
