Hey I played your game and made a quick video. My mic is a little quiet so it's hard to hear, but I thought I would send it to you anyway. Your game starts at 00:19

Developer

Wow, cool. I will watch not only mine, but the other games that you played. Good initiative.

In the coming days I will upload with several improvements.

Thanks for playing :)

Really loved the asthetics on this one and the sound was great too. I even loved the pattern on the start screen. Reminded me of the 70's with the pattern and CRT TV.

Great job!

could you please play and rate my game as well?

Developer

That's the idea, to bring retro things and mix with current themes. 

Thanks for playing and for the review.

Of course, I will play your game and make a review too.

I can just agree with what maroon said!

still a really solid game whith nice astatics and nice sound design!

Developer

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the game. As soon as I finish the Game Jam, I will update the game with improvements :)

This is a very nice and simple platformer with nice music and clean art style. It is a bit difficult to differentiate what the player can land on but this can be tweaked quite easily just with just tinting the colour of certain elements to make them look brighter. Really nice submission and it's very impressive you did all of the art work during the jam. Well done!  

Developer

They were difficult decisions to try to provide some fun. 

For art, I used free tileset's and assets, and edited them in Photoshop.

Thanks for the tips and review.

Very nice game!!! Though sometimes is a bit difficult to distinguish the tiles from the background, the art is super cool, very well made. Another great strength of this game is the music, just loved the part from the Medieval Age.

Well done!!!

Thanks for the words, I'm glad you enjoyed the game. It is motivating to have reviews from other developers.

As soon as Game Jam is over I will upload the changes.

The art of this game is the true definition of the word beautiful! It was a bit tricky to figure out where the player could jump and where the player can't, but other than that you've done a tremendously good job!

Developer

Thank you very much. I am happy to read your review.
The rooftop issue was one of the first improvements I've ever made. After the game jam is over officially, I will upload a new version of the game.

Nice job on the game. I enjoyed the nostalgic touches you added. Please also review my entry. Thank you!

I liked the game! But I think the plataforms of the cyber city that I can jump on it's not so intuitive. I dind't see nothing much new on the game (mechanics), it's a very simple 2D platform. However, I loved the art and music, that two points make the game have more identity,  shine more than other 2D platforms games that we see everyday. I hope the game can progress even more than the actual version!

Developer

It is true, it turned out that it was not intuitive to walk over the buildings, that was one of the first things I have already arranged. 
I already have the mechanics' ideas ready, one of them is the connection between the tapes and the phases to be played, in addition to the narrative, which I will also improve.
I am happy to receive constructive criticism from other developers, this motivates me to continue.
I will continue the development of the game and very soon I will upload some improvements.
Thanks again for the sincere review.

Impressive art for a game jam. One improvement would be to increase the distinction between things that you can jump on and ones that you can't.

Developer

You are right, the platforms should have become clearer. 

You know, we get used to doing things that end up becoming intuitive only for those who develop.

Thanks for playing the game and for the review.

Needs more work.

Good game nonetheless!

Developer

It's true, need to more work. 

Thanks for playing and review.

I like the idea, the wolves were too many and sometimes they were 3 together.. I couldn't run or jump them. 

Good job.

Developer


Thank you very much for playing the game. 
I don't know what happened, the wolves didn't collide with each other, in the last build it was like this kkk. 
Thanks for the review.

Playing different games is an interesting concept, but the movement was slow, even running, and the levels were long. I found that all of the art styles did not match, but that's just aesthetic. Maybe make the maps a bit smaller, and make the movement faster.

Hi, thanks for playing. I'll fix the bugs and their revisions were very important.
