Cute little point and click! I was really confused about the controls at first until I looked at the jam it was made for. Really well done!

Very fun little point and click game! I love point and click games and this surreal game reminds me a lot of Manhole which I spent hours on as a kid~ Very well done.
Main complaints would be in some of the later screen it's not too clear what's walkable and what isn't, being very surreal at that point it might be intentional. I also found the puzzles to take a little too long, the water puzzle seemed to take much too long to empty out, and the underlined poem was a bit confusing of what I was supposed to be doing. I think some sound effects could have helped drive what was correct steps for that one. And I also was not able to find the heart at the end, but overall I love the surreal feel of the game and think it fits really well beside titles of the time :)
Edit: I woulda also loved some way to quickly swap between look and grab, like with right click or scroll wheel.
Great little platformer, reminds me a little of flappy bird if you had control over left and right movement haha. Main complaint I have is that the hitbox on the spaceman is a little too big, or maybe the hitbox on the enemies? it would kill me if I was just slightly close to it. But overall a fun little platformer!!
Cute little side scrolling shooter, but I'm able to just hide at the top of the screen from all fire until the enemy shoots downward and then i go down and shoot it. Despite defeating the enemy I still lost? So I'm not sure. Music and sound is great, the configuration options were fun but I wasn't sure what any of it really did outside of looks?
Graphics are really cool! But.. they're very hard to read and I found myself struggling to figure out what I was looking at. I've seen other games do the palette with 3D and still be able to see what things are, it just is a little unpolished feeling. The controls were really annoying, I feel like I move at a crawlspeed which makes it annoying when in figuring out the controls I pushed all the trash to the furthest corners of the room lol, I like the thinking outside the box idea with the controls but kinda wish I could use Arrow keys or WASD to move. The music and sound is really good though! And the 3D environment with the shader is really neat and I'd love to see it polished up a bit more!
Really good first (first.5?) game! I like the graphics, and the simple animations are great.
What to work on:
Game feels really empty, especially for the first bit while enemies are still spawning in, I'm assuming (I could be wrong) they spawn in from the edges of the map, so it takes them a decent while to reach the player. In the future I'd made a spawn point and keep it just out of the player's view so enemies spawn closer to the player.
More decor in the map would be nice too, give a bit of variety to the map and make it more challenging to avoid enemies, currently it's very easy to get enemies to line up and shoot them all down.
Overall! Great first go! I can't wait to see what you do next! :D

I thought there was still a couple hours x.X then noticed 2 minutes before it was due that it was almost due and tried speedrunning a submission but.. failed
I absolutely ADORED the intro sequence with the omnious mood and music and the fmv style low bit pictures reminding me of games like lost in time... then it became a kind of clunky platformer ^^;; I ended up jumping i guess where I wasn't meant to go and walking right and falling off the map oops.. But if you continue the game like the intro is I'd LOVED to see more!! :D
