The combination of story, artstyle, and voice acting creates a wonderful atmosphere! I really liked that, congrats! :)

poem adds 100% to vibes of witchcraft, this decision was ideal.

For your first 3d game this is awesome! I love the graphics! Throw back to almos n64 days. I really dig the retro vibes. Like with meets super monkey ball. Glad i got to play it

Submitted

Game is a bit hard for me, but I like it! Also, great work with voicing, awesome that you implemented it for a jam game!

I had a lot of fun playing this one! I hope you continue it after the Jam! I played for a lot longer than I realized XD

It is a well designed game.I had a lot of fun playing it.

I wish ther were different camera angles. Sometimes it becomes hard to understand the height of platforms.

Developer

more angles were cut for time, thank you for playing!

Love a classic ball rolling/tilting table game. i found the levels with the moving platforms slightly difficult to time the jumps but that just added to the fun when i beat the level!

Classic ball rolling/tilting table game. As always, the frustrating kind, but with a nice presentation. Maybe consider removing the jumping message after a couple levels :)

Great aesthetics all around. I'd certainly put this in the rage game category if it weren't for the pot sucking the ball into it. Haha, great job!

Developer(+1)

yeah, I added that early on and the suck range kept growing...

Submitted

Was a smart choice haha. I understand why!

Submitted

A charming game, I love the extra effort of little things like the opening screen and the rhymes. The 2d elements and textures fit well with the 3d environment. It was a bit too difficult for me to wrap my head around the physics, are we pushing the ball or rotating the surface?

Developer(+1)

The funny joke I decided was both. When I had just the environment the lack of air control was not fun.

So it's a cursed platformer monkeyball.

Submitted

haha, that's explains it

Fun game! Especially for it being your first 3D game, it's very well made, nice job! 

Submitted(+1)

The game was really fun! I loved the extra challenge of getting all of the collectibles!

Submitted(+1)

Cool game. You did a great job!

Submitted(+1)
