Very original! Feels like a dream. 

  • Would be nice if there were a tutorial, but controls are easy to understand
  • Dialogues are too fast. It would be good if the player decides when to skip to the next one instead of automatic
  • Player walking animation would make the game feel better
  • Graphics are mostly coherent, I think a little bit of polishing on the graphics would make it look like a complete game!

Ambiance is epic, great job :D

Played and rated, very original art style! :)

I played until the colour pots level, got stuck because I didn't know what to do. It might be better to have more hints to help understand what's needed in the level. Personally I didn't even see any bull if there was one in the colour pots level.
The music becomes a bit repetitive, although it fits well the theme of the world.

Overall a very original art style and world, but for me that needed more help to understand the levels.

I'd appreciate if you try and rate my game as well, in case you haven't done so already :)

The art style alone is 5 stars. It's great I hope you plan on continuing this after the Jam!

Amazing art as well as audio. Must've been difficult to complete such an ambitious project

I didn't get very far. Since you did not offer fullscreen or a resizable window my 4k screen did not over many details. So I did not understand what I was playing.

Yikes- sorry about that. I don't know if the game can be updated at this  point, but this certainly teaches me a valuable lesson haha. Thanks for looking anyways.

Such a unique art style.  I'm impressed.

Really different but I like it. The graphics are kinda psychedelic, looks like Tim Burton meets David Lynch, in a good way of course.

The riddles were fun and fresh. I would have preferred if the dialogue of the characters were longer or at least I could watch it again by pressing a key near to the character. Even more so if that helps to solve the riddles.

The music was good for the atmoshere.

Relly nice and inventive entry for this jam!

If you got time I'd love if you check out our game

Quite interesting puzzle game. The art and music is nice.

Submitted

Really cool game. I agree that the puzzles are a bit confusing but I had fun playing it and figuring some of it out. For such a short amount of time I was very impressed with what you accomplished. Great job. Rated :)

Developer

Thank you!

Points for the title!  Bigger points if you can upload a macOS build so we can check it out.

Developer

I would if i could! I don't have a Mac, unfortunately.

Submitted

No worries!

This was a really more interesting experience than i thought it would, the art really unique and pretty, the music was also very good, the story i was very confused until the very end. The puzzles was a little mess, i could just talk to the characters one time so, some of the puzzles i was blind to what i should do. But overall a really good experience.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! The main criticism (from multiple people) seems to be the puzzles, unfortunately- but there's always a first for everything. Again, thanks! I'll check out your game as well soon.
