How does you game fit the theme?
This was my very first game jam and I'm quite proud with how much I learned making Pimenton. The theme was inspired by the film Paprika (which had a lot of dream scenes and surreal scenes of the world falling apart that created a lot of uncertainty of what was real) and so I tried to capture that feeling a bit through a game where the levels end up being fake and falling apart. Hope you enjoy!

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I watched a lot of unity tutorials and followed a lot of them for how to write code, but everything was made from scratch. I also used FEEL by More Mountains, which I own from the Unity store. The art and audio are all made from scratch.

I really like this game! It fits the theme really well and is fun to play. I also like 2D platformers haha. I sort of used the same concept but got a really different result :)

This game was actually incredibly fun, I was confused at first but then when I touched the key the world started to warp around me. The movement was also very tight and well though out, the only problem was the graphics where definitely lacking quite a bit.

This game had me laughing out loud.


Good stuff.

Oh, and also the fact that this is your first jam is amazing!

Really unusual game, loved it! The sounds make laugh a lot. The only thing I found disturbing (sad to say that!) is the wall jump: you have to press left, right and jump in a certain specific order, otherwise you’ll fall down. Unfortunately, I don’t know the exact details of how it is usually done in platformers, but there’s something like a buffer area near the wall that allows you to wall-jump even if you’re just close enough to the wall (and not touching it), which results in a much better control.

Anyways, truly great job, I had fun! And congrats on your first game jam!

I'm very proud of you. Amazing that this is your first game jam! I love the audio (hogh...hogh...hogh) :D 

You also have a good understanding of game design in general, and use the environment to implicitly guide the player 


good job!

Congrats to your successful entry as a solo dev! The overall aesthetic and look, the bombardment with effects and the world just behaving unexpectedly make for a compelling package that fits the theme. And while the sound is nothing to ride home about, it make me chuckle. Seems like you had a lot of fun with this, and it's infectious. :)

Developer

thank you! I'm glad it was infectious! I had a blast.
