Now that's what I call an ending! And the music reminds me of Zelda II, which is a fave.

This is deeply satisfying!

I quite enjoyed that.

Literally grew up in a 90s MMO (we called them virtual worlds back then) so this is dope

This is quite good.

When you release your first game that gets a comment like this you will realize how much it means when somebody takes the time to say hello! I can't wait to play what you make! I was myself inspired by games growing up and that is also what led me to a computer degree. The idea that I helped inspire that for you is amazing.

I did actually design Pantsylvania II but I have to finish the writing and do a lot of new pixel art and oh man with a kid now and a real job working on other games, it is hard to find that time for personal projects.

The world deserves the next episode, though. I *will* make it happen. I *will* make it happen.

Anyway, you made my day! Thanks!

Very nice! I can definitely foresee using this one!

I have the level design and some of the dialogue for the next two chapters, and a start on the pixel art. Ten years later, lots of other things make it hard to find the time to finish an update. But I definitely will do it someday!

This is fantastic!

Very cool!

Oh my goodness!

The color scheme and dithered background of this itch page are beautiful!

This is fantastic work!

Hey this is really great!

Shut the front door!

It feels like this game was made specifically for me.

This is currently my 2019 GOTY. Thank you for making it.

Try again, and follow the instructions precisely. It only works if it you are precise.

I'm just crashing on purpose. I hope that's how you win. ;p

THIS IS GREAT!

Not random at all. :)

Absolutely lovely! I want more.

I'm a big Bubble Bobble fan, and I love spoopy stuff, so this was great! I do miss the rewarding treasure drops from Bubble Bobble, though. I think that would add a lot here.

Conceptually and visually A+ ... but, I really find the control to be unworkable for me. I want the camera to give me much more of a window to speed up and slow down. Otherwise it feels like you are always sharing the same wave, and then the outcome feels random rather than skillful.

When I search Itch.io for "fishing" I only get one page of results:

https://itch.io/search?q=fishing

It is not clear to me how these results are selected, or why there are not additional results.

The tag view for the tag "fishing" is what I would expect to see, and much more useful to me.

However, the entry into that tag view is not obvious nor is it clear that I am not already in fact looking at the results for that tag.

Ideally, there would be a much more visible invitation into the fishing tag from these search results or perhaps when a search is an exact match to a tag, the search results should default to the tag results with some sort of "you are looking at the tag fishing. click here to search for the word fishing instead"

Do you keep traveling backwards in time to before you started the time machine?

Agreed! And my research shows that in order for an entire group of people to travel through space and time, the instructions are even more precise and complex. :)

Please follow the directions exactly.

Pink frog is OP.

I love the retro 3d aesthetic! Very cool mechanic... Have you ever played the old Atari game Dragster? Another game all about shifting, but not as inscrutable ;)

Very, very sue-able... Does that mean you should get 5 stars or 1 star? I really don't know. Also very fun! That transition in/out with the CRT effect warms the cockles of my heart.

Could be and should be in an actual cabinet next to the original.

I absolutely love Missile Command... it is probably the most nerve wracking game ever. I think you should flesh this out... I think it has a lot of potential for local mutliplayer. Not sure how I feel about the unlimited ammo / constant rate of fire.

Hello fellow lover of snakes / NIBBLES.BAS!

Fun arena deathmatch game! The music and sound is absolutely beyond scrutability.

I love plunging to my death into the lava with my sister's egg. Heh. Wish I could knock an egg loose by hitting the ground from below, but the squishing is really fantastic. I actually LET the game go to a draw once because I wanted to see if the eggs would hatch into something!! :)

I had to play this since the original is one of my all time favorite games! The soundtrack to this is highly, highly inscrutable. :)

This is great fun! I was laughing really pretty hard... so satisfying to smack each other into traffic. Now I feel bad about myself... heh
