A very interesting concept! I really like how ominous it feels with the operatic lows of the death side combining with the high pitch bells of the life side in the music. I don't understand why I'm randomly losing lives in levels though, is it a time limit thing or is there a loss condition I was triggering that I didn't know about? It wasn't very clear to me
Thank you for playing!! You lose lives when death touches the flowers or life touches the mushrooms. I put it in the How to play (press Q) but I unfortunately didn't have time to make it more clear.
the game is good and has potential, but I think with some general improvements it can get much more fun, also I got a glitch where I got stuck and couldn't move
Someone else mentioned a glitch too; do you know what happened to make you get it? I've tried to recreate the glitch to figure out a way to fix it but idk what or where it happens.
Also, thank you for your feedback!!
I'm not sure how it happened but I got stuck in a transparent wall
After a while, the game gets bugged out for some reason and on pressing 1 / 2 nothing happens. The objective could be clearer as well. But a good attempt nonetheless at the theme!
solid visuals and fitting music. controls are a bit tricky ;)
Very cute concept with the 2 destined to meet. It was very chill.
Controls were blocky though. A bit tough to use.
thank you!! I've never attempted a platformer before and I think my programming skills were not up to the task of my idea 😅 but I'm glad I was able to get enough for the game to be played in some manner
