How does your game fit the theme?
"What?" is definitely the word to describe the worlds behind these doors.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All the code yes, some assets too. I didn't make most of the sprites or the music/SFX, creds are in game, and on the itch page.

Love the art style. Feel like i was in a dream!

The game was fun! The dialogs were very funny. It's a bit short, but it's fun it is like somewhat experimental in many ways, there's even a small boss battle!

Submitted

Nice work! Music and environment are very good! Also, the story is very interesting. Just want to point out that the movement didn't feel very polished, but it didn't mess my experience, I had fun with it :)

This felt like a fever dream... in a good way!

Great job!

great game!

here are some points to make it even better:

- the jump feel seems a little bit off, maybe increases the gravity of the player object?

- I notice some text coming out of the textbox border

- The black border of the game area is a little bit annoying, you can put texture instead of black. for example, put a rock texture.

- the mouse is only used to navigate the menu & close the dialogue box. It will be better to be able to close the dialogue box using keyboard.

No need to apologise for your game in the credits, I had a very very very good time! You may not have been able to finish, but you had some of the best humor and 4th wall breaking of this jam! I was smiling the whole time while playing :D

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it.

good game man, the graphic style is great. There are a couple of physics bugs you might want to look at (I unfortunately got softlocked by the ground halfway through), but I must say Its a fun game overall.  keep up the good work man!

Loved the dialogues and the story! .. and the fact that even though the game is not finished you guys managed to make it fun :D There were a little bugs with movement but I did all four, was great! The creep phase was really creep, I was thinking if one of you guys recorded the sound HAHA

Wow! Brilliant! 

Poems in describtion, Rene Magrit's men in lvl-design, lovely dialogues (talking dinosaur and breaking 4-th wall included) and (OMG!!!) 3D objects in 2D game?! How?! o_O 

Pure magic!

Thx a lot! Really amazing! 10 of 10, no doubt!

p.s. Credits are also charming

Thanks! Glad you liked it!

As others have pointed out, the dino feels a bit floaty, but this game is otherwise really charming. I like the self deprecating meta humor in the dialogue 

Submitted(+1)

Great game! Hooked me in immediately, very fun visuals. I really liked the switch to the doodle-jump game mode, though I thought the character could use a bit more gravity :)

Submitted

Sadly, my character got stuck here, cutting my lovely playthrough short. Hope this helps!

Developer

Yes! Thank you for the screenshot, I'll look at this if I do continue with this game.

Fun game! Very unhinged but not boring! Controls need tightening. I understand you ran out of time on the project, though, and for a week of work is looks great.

Submitted(+1)

...so this is what a fever dream feels like

jokes aside, i unironically love this game just because of how unhinged and out-of-character the game and especially the dialogue get. Sure, the graphics/visuals could use a lot of work and the controls feel kinda janky, but the game was funny as hell. Well done lol 

Developer(+1)

Thanks, once I realized I wasnt gonna have enough time to do what I originally wanted, I decided to just get crazy and funny with it.

Submitted(+1)

Really crazy game, but in a good way! Had fun playing it for sure!

Submitted(+1)

The graphics were interesting. I downloaded the windows build thinking the web version had low res textures or something but I guess that's just what it looks like. The room with the doors was an interesting sight.

I couldn't go in any of the doors for some reason though.

Developer

Were they just not opening? Or did it go nowhere when you went through them?

Submitted

I would touch them and stand on them and they wouldn't do anything. No visual change.

Submitted(+1)

Nice use of the theme and a fun platformer, my biggest complain is having to click on the dialogue to progress it. Nice work.

Developer

Yeah, I agree, thats one thing I wanted to add.

Hello. 

The game idea is ok, and the controls feel nice. 

Well done.
