Thanks for playing amd leaving a comment! really appreciate it 😁

There was even more worse train exploration controls at first but fixed them up post release 😅  They currently work pretty well with a controller but not the best on a keyboard sadly and not sure how to fix that without losing the more interesting camera. 

I've got a big update I need to finish up and upload that fixes the floating eyeball hit boxes 😅 Might get that done tonight... 

Thank you again 😊

Thank you so much for the kind words, I am glad you enjoyed it :)  I'm actually doing more work on it so I will make some changes based on your recommendations! (Definitely want a prompt on the screen for when gameplay style changes haha). Been gutting and reworking all the rushed code to actually make it a not reusable mess xD  Thank you so much for playing though I appreciate it!  

Thank you so much for playing :) The music is from some group that sells Japanese songs (They have a page on here too!).

I'm glad you had fun with it but I am working on a update to get some checkpoints to make the shooting section more manageable! You should try again and get up to the final sequence if you didn't before!    

Thank you so much for playing and making a video 😊 Working on getting more gameplay into it haha (had to cut content due to jam time restraints) 

Any chance could you please take a screenshot of the material graph :)  I tried loading it into unreal 4.23 but can't see anything so just remaking it haha!  Thank you 

I think someone said it might be triggering just because it's a single exe file... I have no idea myself but thought to just try it anyway 🤣

I liked the game but think some more hints towards what's needed before the battles in terms of stats would be handy! 

Cute little "Tower" defense game :)  I stupidly skipped the tutorial then had to learn on the fly haha. Good work! 

Just to start with... 

IT'S NOT A VIRUS PEOPLE ITS SAFE TO DOWNLOAD! 

You may need to figure out why it flags it as bad for itch io and windows defender because its scaring people off from trying your game! 

The game itself has nice art and dialogue but it seems unfinished? I got to the battle and could do anything! I also had a glitch where one of the dialogue options would not proceed. But good effort and hope to see it finished :)   

Awee thank you so much 😊 it's motion captured animations, I used a mix of Mixamo ones and captured ones with a Rokoko suit (got my partner to strap in.. she's only like 160 cm tall and she had to fit into my 196cm oversized suit haha). 

Oh did you play the jam version or one of the more current builds? I increased the subtitles size in version 1.2 i think 🤔 or is it too small even now? 

Thank you so much for the feedback 😊


(1 edit)

Thank you so much for playing my game jam game! 😊 I'm glad you enjoyed it, I'll look into that steam vr issue thanks 😁

Bring her a Tablet PC with a sim card and a solar panel xD  World at her fingertips haha! Lovely little story though, hope there is a next part!   

I quite liked the story, cant wait to see how it will end :)  

Nice little game, wish there was some more animations though and some attacks that didn't require ap points (Found myself doing a lot of switching around and resting).  Good work though :) 

The design and look of it is very nice, I loved the pixel art! The menus seemed quite hard to navigate for me and it felt like I wasn't sure of what I was doing. After I got my team and got into the tutorial I was not sure what to do either! 

Oh cool was not expecting a card game entry! I played the Web version on the page and was having a bit of fun! Made me think of Yu-Gi-0h a little haha! Hope to see it more polished up in the future :)

Well I think I polished this up enough to stick on here! 

A late night train ride brings Aki and the girl together in a action filled trip to take control and fight back!  

Dreams of Leaves is a Game Jam game created for the Magical Girl Game Jam #11 on Itch io in about two weeks! It's a PS1 styled action game. 

Please have some fun and leave some feedback :) 


My only complaint would be a little more background art but otherwise good job :)   

The art was really cute and well done! Mechanically it works really well too just feel it needs a bit more variety in the level design though! Really good work :)  

ah cool, I'll make a adjustment to it thank you 😊 Any other critiques? I'm really trying to get it polished up so I can put it to rest and stop thinking about it 🤣 (and yep needs more sound effects and music haha ) 

Thank you so much for playing and the kind words 😊 Was it the third section of the shooter section you found hard in particular or? (Been tempted to nerf that part haha)

Good work it was a cute little game :) Aesthetically it was very nice but feel like it need a bit more content but sold effort! 

Really hope to see more! The story and art style are so cute :) 

Thank you so much 😊

That was a really responsive with really nice art game :)  Can't wait to see more! 

"Can I shoot hearts?" ... That's literally what you do in my own game haha  xD 

That was a really cute little story, I loved how each character had such a defined personality! Good work :) 

I cant even get the character to move xD  Am I missing something sorry?  

Same here, cant get past the intro! 

I liked the rendering/graphics style for the characters :D  Reminded me of old clay motion capture sprites in games haha

Looking forward to seeing this with a bit more content :)  Good work on making it two player! 

I just released a update for it! (Ver 1.2). It adds full controller support but also I made it so you can go into aim mode with Left Ctrl so hope that makes it a bit easier for you! There is also a in game pause menu (Escape) that lists the controls :)  Hope that helps out! 

Well the animations are a mix of mixamo and rokoko but with the suit its really easy to get something done quick! 

I did not have enough time to implement in game prompts for the controls >.< ... Added that to my to do list thank you!  :D The shooting is you hold right click to aim then left click to shoot but I never realised on laptop it would be an issue sorry! Technically a controller works with it I just didn't not it on the page (The final section has not been hooked up for controller yet) so maybe try one of you have one :) 

And yep I'll get those shocking cameras fixed sorry haha! 

Awee thank you :D  Only about two weeks though actually haha! The last day I got my partner to hop into a Rokoko suit just so I could get the animations for the cutscenes haha. And thanks for the heads up with the FPS! 

Ill get a fix for laptops in there for you and let you know when thank you :) 

A basic beat em up

Thank you so much! :)  Just quick question but did you have any FPS issues? (Someone else had a really bad fps, It's locked to 30 but it looked shocking on their recording) 

Yeah I almost bite off more than I can chew but originally it was just going to be the exploration and the shooter section but then the train endless runner "like" idea popped into my head and well I had to do it haha! 

Ah yeah that section needs a lot more love but I ran but of time xD I have done a tank control styled switching camera horror game before but had people complain about tank controls so this one I was like yep will just do free control (But didn't have enough time to implement a system when you go to the next screen the control stays the same till you release movement). 

The compression was not intentional (And that opening is half finished haha) >.<'  Basically I found a site to buy anime styled music and I grabbed the youtube sample and used that for timing in the opening until they sent me the purchased one (The lower quality but affordable mp3...) and after the first few seconds the audio quality takes a dive off a cliff... Didn't have much other choice but to keep going at that point

Thanks for all the kind words :)  

Hello, thanks for play, sorry it was not your cup of tea! 

In regards to the fps it's locked at 30 to be more like a PS1 game and it's using Unreal 4.23 which is quite old so you should not be getting any dips lower than that. You may need to check your PC!

I got as far as Umi then got brutally killed haha! Had fun while playing though! Cute little game thank you :) 

Awee no worries you should be happy with what you all did! And that's  a typical jam... How many compromises you have to make before times up xD My opening cutscene just suddenly stops so I know the pain. 

Very cute nice aesthetic with lovely music! I did not get to play too much but I will play more later.  

Good little story, I think some consistency across the artwork would help though! Good work though :) 

I really liked the concept, it's pretty much one of those old spot the difference pictures but with a horror angle! I just found it really hard to clap the enemies to death and it would seem to work sometimes but not others? Good work though and lovely visuals :)
