How does you game fit the theme?
[Play with the sound on]. You think you are alone, there's a chance that you're not
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code, made the main character but used mainly kenney assets

Nice game, congrats ! I liked the change of tone and the graphics. Too bad that we didn't see more of the colorfull one, it seems really cute ^^.
Maybe give more room for the jumps because sometimes you are really close to miss a platform. But appart from that, it was really nice !
If you have the time to play and rate my game, it will be much appreciated :) Thx !
Great game with atmospheric design and good level design!
Definitely didn’t expect that lol, good surprise. I really like the sound and level design and those scripted horror moments like the lightning flash reveal and the first chase. Really nicely done on that. I felt like the jump could have been a little higher, it didn’t need to be that tricky to get up onto a ledge. But that actually was more of a problem early on and not so bad later in the levels when you were going down instead of up. I managed to get out and save the doggo.
Good job on this, thanks for sharing. My game is linked below if you want to check it out.
really enjoyed the way you changed the tone of the game part way through, very hard to achieve
It was great! and having to fall down to continue was nice. audio was pleasant. Stuck to the theme the whole time. COOL BEANS.
This game went pretty quickly from :D to :0 and the transition was so smooth. Playing with audio on is important in most games, especially those like this one. You could clearly feel the tension. I just wish it was longer, but I had the same problem with my game, if not worse, so I perfectly understand. Well done, this is a nice submission.
PS: I went to the left when I first started the game and found an angry (?) man. Is it some sort of easter egg or did I miss something?
That was not what I was expecting. The switch to horror was very well done. I thought I died at first but then realized something was up.
The corgi's jump animation is very cute.
The game was entertaining at that length I feel. If it got too long then there would have to be more gameplay elements to keep me entertained. The gameplay was very simplistic.
Overall, a very cool and unique entry.
The sudden switch to horror was very surprising!
The appearance of the wolfs with the lightning bolts and thunder was extremely impressive and frightening and very well implemented!
It's a really creative concept!
You should look for a echoing gong sound for when the bell falls down for frightening effect! :)
Nice game!
great game but to small I hope it will have a full story after some time I will be happy to play it
The dog is SO DANG CUTE!!! I don't know how you were able to do that in pixel art! I did pixel art as well but it is nowhere close to this. Graphics are a 5/5 imo.
If you don't mind, could you rate my game and give some constructive criticism?

Thx for the feedback. Of course, I'll test it tonight
okey dokey
beautiful game, really atmospheric ( i loved the little circles when the block touches something, it really adds to the game) the sounds were amazing, at first i thought the gravity felt a bit weird but in its entirety, the fast gravity and precise jumps really adds to the tension of the game, well done!
The game is very fun and I loved the twist! Unexpected and also the change of atmosphere is very effective. The overall experience is a bit too short and at the beginning, I thought I was stuck. To proceed the game asks you at the beginning a too precise jump. Btw nice project!
Nice little game! I really enjoyed the atmosphere, awesome work on that! I think I nearly got softlock in a hole, but by mashing "space", I was able to jump higher than intended and got out of the hole xD.
Overall a nice entry, I would have enjoyed a little ending with an explanation, but for a 7 days jam, this is already solid. Congratulations =)!
A full 5 stars game, the sensation was incredible
I wasn't quite feeling the game to begin with, but once I hit the tonal shift I was instantly hooked- amazing work with the atmosphere, sounds and sights! Despite it being dark, I was never frustrated or at a loss for where I was, or what was going on.
Superb work all around! Love that little dog.
I love the music, sound, and environmental effects in this. The platforming felt a little jerky but was quite playable. And the dog is very cute. Great work!
I loved the transition from the top to bottom and the effects applied. Personally I quite liked the design of the entire level, it felt really well done despite me not being able to see much of it.
Keep up the good work!
Thx, I really wanted to create a nice atmosphere. That's too bad because I had a lot of ideas to continue the level but the deadline got me.
I really loved this game. I think it is a very good entry for this jam. The twist gives it a different and original vibe, I wasn't expecting it. Controls are on point, they feel polished and the pressure is there all the time.
I think that with more care into the level design and design of the world itself (there was no justification or interconnection between elements) and more time to develop the game, it could be an amazing game by itself. Also, a little hint (on the picture of the entry, for example) that there will be a dark twist on this game would help players to know that something it is going to happen; and you will attract people who want to play this specific type of game.
Good job!
Thank you for your feedback, I will change the picture today. I spent too much time on the mechanics and not enough in the game design, so I think you'r right.
Loved the twist in atmosphere and the style of the graphics. This was a nice, fun game. Good job!
Fun, short platformer! Loved the events and mood change!
