Took me a while to understand that I had to use math to get to the flowers.

Cool concept! I could see this being used in schools.

Developer

Thank you!

Honestly the game looks really well polished and honestly, the concept is probably the most creative out of this entire jam. I think the main problem is it's not easy to know what you're supposed to do. Some music and audio would've also been nice.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

Too much work for me haha but I'm sure math people like it. Cool idea.

Oh dude I have learned complex numbers about an hour and still can't pick a ridiculous flower :') Really good game with innovative mechanic and neat pixel art. Reallly awesome job!

Nice game, I'm not that good with complex numbers but it's still a good game nonetheless and I love the way you designed the page to  blend in with the game. Very clever - great job!

Thank you very much!

I love it, this is entirely new to me, great job!

Thank you!

Original idea! I think I'm bad at math, but appreciate the chaos I made! 

Developer

Thanks!

The game looks beautiful, but I have zero idea about complex numbers, so I randomly pressed buttons trying to figure it out and gave up. Then again, for people with knowledge about complex numbers, seems like a neat game!

Developer

Thanks!

Neat little mindbending game! It was a nice learning experience.

I figured out how to do it with only three buttons: 00, +i and *i. I used *i to rotate my character 90 degrees. Then I could use +i to move up one vertically. If I moved vertically, rotated 90 degrees, and used +i again, it's sorta like moving horizontally (or at least perpendicular to the "vertical" movement). So with those two I could reach any flower I wanted and If I got too far out I could just reset.

Nice job!

Check out my game if you're interested :3 Rate In The Dark by BirdCat Nate, AstronomicalZ, Cristian for Brackeys Game Jam 2022.1 - itch.io

Thanks a lot!!! Actually, I used the same tactic while testing the game, haha!

I have things to do rn, but I'll try to check it out and leave a rating before the voting ends! ^^

The look of the game is really nice, Only thing is had no clue what I was meant to do. Could be cos I'm not great at maths. Still Nice Work.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I know, this game could use a tutorial.

Very cute, and I loved the idea of the imaginary numbers movement system.  GJ.

Developer

Thanks!!!

Submitted(+1)

Wow, the game looks amazing and the idea is great! Great job!

I just rated your game, maybe you can do the same on mine ^_^

Developer

Thanks! <3 I'd love to but currently I don't have any Windows computers, do you plan to export?

Submitted(+1)

I really think this is a cool idea!

Developer

Thank you!

This is so cute I love the style, but I'm really bad at math

Developer

Thanks for your feedback!

What a great idea for a game!

At first, I was a bit confused what I should do, then I read in the comments that you are supposed to reach the flower fields.

The notation is different from what I'm used to. For me, 1 i2  means 1 * 2i. It took me a while to understand that it's 1 + 2i. A text field that shows the latest equation would clear thing up :)

For example

(1 + 2i) * (-i) = 2 - i  after the player clicked (-i).


Overall it's an amazing game and well executed. The graphics and animation look great too. Keep up the good work :)

Developer

Thanks! Actually yes, it should be 1 + 2i, that's what I was taught in school, I put 1 2i as a coordinate test and I guess I got used to it so much during development that I didn't realize it's incorrect, oops. Super glad you like the game, thank you for your feedback! <3

Developer

Thanks!

Game was good and loved the idea. However, it is a little bit difficult and there is no sound or background music

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

Developer

I love your interpretation of the theme! Using complex numbers is brilliant. I am jealous I did not think of this :D 

Great work!!

Developer

Thank you very much!!! <3

(Translated from Spanish)

The idea is excellent, it is a very good use of the theme, and the art is very nice. But the game is really confusing, despite the good idea. Is my goal to go where there are flowers? Or is it getting off the map? It really is confusing, and it must be much worse if you don't know about complex numbers.

Developer(+1)

Gracias :D

The goal is to collect the flowers, the game was supposed to reload and show the menu, but the web export doesn't, I haven't figured out why yet ^^"
