Nice game! Puzzles were really good, graphics and audio gave the game a nice feel.
Would play more if added!
Great job!

Hi! :D I really enjoyed playing your game! Benjamin is so cute and I really liked the dark circus atmosphere. It took me a couple rounds to realize how to solve it, but I thought it was a clever puzzle game! I also loved all the ways you incorporated the theme into the game. Great job! :D
Great game !!! The yellow ball came with me all to bottom so had to reset from beginning :( ... Good work with the game !!!
The game might lie, but I won't. There is an escape. :) I'll be putting a quick walkthrough on my YouTube channel later this week if you're stuck and curious how to win!
I checked out and rated your game too. That is super polished! The key layout was kind of unintuitive (though that's part of the challenge!) - but I managed a C on the first two songs at least! Great music and visuals, I liked the animated bits at the start and in the background too, and everything felt very tightly programmed and solidly timed to the rhythm. Well done!
Thank you, I'm glad you were able to beat it! Someone else mentioned that bug too with items not resetting, so I'll be looking into it after the jam rating period is over. I want to add maybe a pull mechanic to help with items getting stuck, too. Thank you for the feedback!
I rated your game as well. I like survival games! It's a good start - I noticed you said in the comments it can't currently be completed. Seems like it'd be fun to develop further!
I like the idea and the visuals. The music is fitting also really nice.
The only thing that bothered me a little was , that I had to restart, as soon as I made a mistake with the boxes or the ball.
Anyways, good job :D
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback! I'm considering some ways to fix that, like a pull mechanic or the ability to reset just one item at a time. Glad you enjoyed the game!
Yours is fun (and I rated it), but I wasn't able to get very far! (That's just me needing to get better at fast-paced platformers, though) I liked how you had obstacles suddenly appear. The music was nice as well!
That's a really smart game, I had to think for a while before figuring out that there were only one big scene (trying not to spoil to much there x) )
I had to restart a couple times because i messed up with the boxes... It became a little less interesting the third time I went trough the beginning.
Great concept though !
Looks and runs solid. I lol'ed the first time that earthworm attacked. Great animation
Great game, but it could surprise the small children LOL
Clever levels :) The amount of times I got eaten by that eyeless beast is embarrassing.
Nice work making this game! I can see you put huge amounts of effort in :) Looking forward to seeing what else you make in the future
YEAH RIGHT (I Jumped down anyway)
Spoilers:
I got stuck after this section, It seems I can only jump down but it spawns me at the first level (all other deaths give you the option to retry, so maybe this isn't a death?). I get the feeling the "Up is down hint" might elude to needing to fall to hit that yellow sparkle at the beginning?
Ahh, thank you! You were very close to solving it. I don't want to give too much away, but as a hint, you're right in thinking you didn't die when you "escaped". :) Otherwise, I'll be putting up a dev log that includes a full playthrough over on YouTube sometime in the next few days.
I'll check your game out!
