Wow, this game is beautiful! I love the hand drawn aesthetic. Have you ever seen the yellow submarine? thats sorta what this reminds me of! I especially love how the vines look. As others have said, there is sometimes some issue with perspective, but other than that gameplay is solid. I couldn't progress after a certain point because buddy didnt show up when i pressed f, ill link the screenshot


Overall excellent game! It seems like you have a lot of cool gameplay ideas that I unfortunately was unable to actually play, keep at it though!

Developer

We love the Yellow Submarine from the Beatles and its really nice that our style reminds you of that.
Do you mean the thorn bushes? - because we're not sure which vines you are talking about haha. :)

That Buddy didn't showed up by pressing "F" wasn't a bug actually - Buddy can't jump and is afraight of heights so you need to carry him over by letting him jump on your shoulders haha. We should point that out in an extra dialogue or cutscene to be sure the player won't miss that.

We're really happy that you enjoyed playing our game anyways.

oh yeah, the thorn bushes! Those things you needed to avoid or else they'd hurt you. Ah I didn't realize I needed to carry him, I'm not even sure how I wouldve but I might have not been paying attention

Game looks and sounds great! Like others have mentioned struggled a bit with the depth of the ground, maybe some shadows would fix this right up. congrats on the submission, brilliant work!

Developer

Means a lot! We both had a blast playing your game and we can tell you have some skills on the field - congrats to you too! Really appreciating the feedback. The depth perspective def needs some work.

Really impressed with your artwork, nice job. I loved the music too. One thing that tripped me up was the perspective of the ground. I wasn't sure where was safe to walk or not.  Even so, what a sweet game!

Thanks for playing and the feedback! :)

So much character in everything! It seems that there is a whole unique world somewhere outside the camera view. Not another generic fantasy/syfy (insert cliche name) world, but something really new.

There is a mistake in tutorial bubble: it says F for switching characters yet it's Q indeed.

The platforming and controls overall are quite awkward. I experienced some bugs, like companion not coming or getting stuck in a wall.

I personally would enjoy it much more if it was a game focused on exploring a beautiful world and telling a meaningful story.

Good luck and keep working! The big potential is obvious.

Thanks so much bulboka!
We can really imagine a world out there too! :) Glad you dont think our universe is fantasy cliche haha.
Your feedback is really valueable for us and gave us already some ideas where to go next with the project and what we need to tweak further, like the jump controls

The graphisms are awesome but with the perspective the jumps are pretty hard.

Developer

Thank you!

The art sit huuuuuuuuu damn sick! Love it! I would be happy if you would test mine to :D

Developer

Thanks a lot! We sadly couldn't play yours since we only can run games on Mac or web player. If you can build a mac version we are happy to play yours too. :)

Looks absolutely stunning, really great art and artstyle. Though I would put less anticipation for the jump animation and add shading to some tiles to not seem confusing in this perspective. Other than that I really loved it. Hope Wilma and her buddy will set off for more adventures in the future!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing , the nice words and the feedback!
Jump and tiles def need some polishing haha.

We hope they both continue their adventure too! So far it seems like it. ;)
