Good game great fun.

Submitted

Really good one guys! I enjoyed the puzzle solving aspect of it but it's really the story that took me by surprise! Sure you could finish the game somewhat instantly using the R key but i found myself wanting to solve all the riddles. And the twist at the end was very well directed so really double thumbs up!

Developer

Thanks a lot for your comment! Means a lot!

Nailed the Theme! Game was fun, audio was really good too! Art and animations were not bad  but could use some work.  I look forward to seeing your entry next Jam, i bet its super good! Also liked the Riddles (especially the Hitchhiker's Guide Ref!)

I would love your feedback on Sicmish and my game ConnedTra if you'd like to give it a try! https://itch.io/jam/cgj/rate/476192

Sure will try out your game! Thanks for the feedback!

Loved the Music and the Pixel art! Very nice. I had a bit of a hard time with the words being so Tiny. But still enjoyed the game. Good voice also :P


Maybe you want to try our game aswell.
It might look like a platformer, but there is more to it then it Looks like.

Thanks for your feedback, Ill definitely try out your game!

The game is really cool and the music is very nice. It fits the theme very well :D

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I got a few replies about the music which makes me feel really good as a self-judgemental musician!

Submitted

It reminded me of portal one lol

Developer

Yeah, it's greatly inspired of portal. Tcial.exe is a reference to the cake is a lie.

Submitted

Very interressing game, pretty deep, good job !

Developer

Thank you for your nice comment!

Submitted

That was fun! The dialogue was well written and you had some very interesting puzzles in there too! Nice work!

Developer

Thanks for the reply!

Okay, so this game is good as far as I got. I got stuck on the "Where you see a ten, I only see..." and couldn't figure it out, but the first two codes were really smart and I liked that. The game were very polished overall, with a menu and a restart button, but I did find a couple bugs. I clipped trough the wall one time when trying to push a box in a tight passage. Then also, I could go through a laser by standing close to it and then start pushing a box.

But other than that, it waas good as far as I got.

Yeah once again I take full blame for the bugs... the crates over all are quite buggy and I am quite ashamed of them. The answer to that riddle is 1010, as that is the binary version of the number 10 (considering computers work on the basis of binary).

Submitted

The bugs aren’t that bad considering there is a restart button, but thanks for the answer. Now I will play(hopefully if I don’t get stuck again that is) trough the rest of the game.

Developer

Thank you :)

This is basically Portal, minus the portal device, plus a more deadly machine. A well made short puzzle game. You earned your place for the top rows of the popular tag!

Thank you very much. Our game was heavily inspired by portal.

Submitted

Good game, cool game idea! :)

Thanks!

Submitted

I wish the next wasn't so tiny! I loved the general concept thought, cool stuff!

Great job on creating it! I'd love if you checked out my game and let me know what you think! :D

Developer

i sure will try out yours as soon as im back! Im happy you enjoyed it but what exactly do you mean by "the next is small"?

Submitted

Sorry I meant TEXT, not NEXT :P

Hey awesome game I did find one boundary breaking glitch if in one of the first levels there is a place in the wall that if you slide a wooden crate in you can get it through the wall and eventually yourself but all around amazing game

Developer(+1)

Yeah, as programmer Im guilty haha. The whole crate pushing mechanic created a lot of bugs:many I fixed, one or two I knew about and didnt have time to fix, and some, like this one, I didnt know about. Thanks for reporting it. Cheers.

Submitted

I enjoyed it! I liked the graphics 

Thank you very much!

Submitted

I was really enjoying the game, but then I got to this part were I needed to enter a four digit code with the hint "What even is the meaning of life?". As some people know, life doesn't have any meaning; you have to create your own meaning. However, I wasn't sure how to convert that into a four digit number.

Thank you! There is a popular book called The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy in wich 42 is described as the answer to everything. There will be more codes throughout the game, some of them are a bit too difficult but we didnt have much time left. Feel free to ask or google them!

Me Too!!!

Thanks for the feedback. We knew of all these bugs but just didn't have time to fix them because the programmer needed to leave a day earlier.

Developer

Yeah that's because we aimed for a nice story too so we needed long dialogues for you to understand the AI better, even though it might still feel a bit unfinished. For bugs I take full responsibility as programmer and Im truly sorry that I didnt have time to fix them. Thanks for your feedback 👍

Submitted

Pretty ugly art, but fun overall.

Ummm.. thanks i guess.

Submitted

Not trying to be offensive. You should work on your pixel art is what I'm saying

Submitted

Wow! Really nice game.

Thank you very much!

Developer

Thanks a bunch!
