It's about playing on an arcade in a very chaotic setting with a lot of interactions between 3d/2d

Yes, I made everything by myself. Only sounds and music are from an asset pack for which I bought the copyrights.

This is so good!

Great concept, I especially like when things come out of the machine like in the vampire boss fight or when you kill an enemy. Its also really fun and challenging not shaking the screen and predict the bosses without being able to see them. My favorite game of the jam so far, good job :)

Developer

glad you liked it and thank you for the heartwarming comment <3

Played the zen mode. A game in a game! nice touch

Developer

Yeah, I knew the chaos elements would be too much for some ^^ (even for me while playtesting the game for a whole week haha)

Very good game, the only complaint is that the vampire boss's collider felt kind of unfair, well done!

Developer

Thx for the feedback, I will adjust the hitbox for a later version!

Really nice game. The vision blocking is a cool way of instilling chaos in the game. Kind of sad the pogo sword mechanic was so minimal. I want a whole game of that. The visuals and sound were great. Level design was secretly really clean. Overall, Great submission. 

Developer

Haha Interesting to see so different opinions on that ^^'.  Some found the pogo mechanic to be too hard, glad you liked it :P

that was magnificent experience. Great theme realisation, good game/level design, liked using new mechanics in interesting ways and coming back to get new one, challenging boss fights(vampire fight is very fun), 2d art is pleasant, 3d not so pleasant, but it didn't ruin the experience.

Hello! Very good idea and well done. Would be cool if you could remove the obstacles infront of the screen with you mouse, cuz sometimes you have to wait until they are gone to proceed the level. Still, extremly well done!

Would be awesome if you could play & rate my game aswell! Thank you, tiimo :3

This was very fun, I love the old CRT tv aesthetic, it reminded me a lot of a game I played a while back called You Have To Win The Game. The graphics were crisp and pleasant, played in zen mode it was chill and relaxing while chaos mode was really challenging with avoiding certain things (like the vampire).

I was very surprised when I saw the combination of 2D and 3D, it's straight +. At first I did not understand in which mode I was playing, but when I saw how chaos was implemented, everything fell into place. Also + for implementation.

During the battle with the vampire, I burned a little :)

i dont know why but i wasnt able to use the down attack to pogo so i always lost 2 hearts at the start

but overall nice game

Super Charming Game. I really love the art style of the 3d and the 2d stuff. I loved how items you picked up in the game would come out of the screen as 3d clutter. All super cool stuff. Super creative way to use the theme. Good job. My only complaint is the chaos mechanic goes over the line and gets a bit annoying. I know you have a mode to turn it off, but I would like I have liked to see just a more manageable version of the chaos.

thx for the feedback :)
I had the chaos a bit less intrusive, but in the end, but I thought people either hate it or love it and therefore made the "toggle" between "off" or really annoying. I didn't think people would actually enjoy something that is "mildly infuriating". I think I would've needed to make other less obtrusive chaos elements. Since I put a lot of time into the game you're actually playing I didn't end up working on that part as much.
