Yo
Such a good game, i've enjoyed minimalistic gameplay and story behind it. Christmas vibes are here, so i'm happy to play in it!
Btw, if u have a desire to play in my game or maybe even rate it, welcome here: https://itch.io/jam/cozy-winter-jam-2023/rate/2429047
I'd really appreciated this!
Hey there! I think you had an ambitious concept here with all the mechanics, and a bit more tutorial information or description of how to play would have been helpful. I couldn't figure out how to cross that first big gap until I read some of the other comments below, and even then, I couldn't figure out how to consistently mid-air dash. Jumping and spamming my mouse buttons seemed to work? I also couldn't figure out how to get a consistent super jump height, which left me stuck at the second main wall-jump area. Overall, great effort and certainly potential here, just some fine-tuning to the mechanics and more guidance for players would be a big help!
For a first game, well done! The animation and art were good, and everything more-or-less worked as it should. I did find that movement was pretty stiff, especially for a game with walljumping as a mechanic. Having your abilities (super jump and dash) triggered by keyboard keys like F and E or E and Q would have been more intuitive, in my opinion. Overall, good job! :)
Thanks so much! I will def take your suggestions into consideration for future games
I was able to get on top of the first wall but couldnt make the long jump to the next area. For game jams i would suggest an easier difficulty. Otherwise well done, keep it up!
Great first game. I wasn't really sure what to do for a while.
You seem to already have plan for most of the problems in the game, so I won't go into them. The font is blurry, really blurry. The gameplay is nice once I have an idea of what I could do and where to do it. Good job on your first game. Keep it up!
Thanks so much! I think getting some game testers would have been a good idea, there is only one route that works to reach the end and based on this and a different comment it seems like that route wasn't clear enough. Obviously I knew what to do cause I designed it so the outsiders perspective probably would have helped.
Nice job for a first game!
Thanks so much!
Heyyy, congrats on your first game!
I had several issues with the gameplay - when I fell, I just dashed forward to a point where I couldn't restart anymore
But I really liked the artstyle, I wish there was audio as well :))
Keep it up! <3
Thanks so much! I also really wanted to add music, but I couldn't figure that out hahaha Im working on a second game right now though and its on my checklist to learn music stuff
is it just me or the first jump is impossible?
you have to land on the pipe thing that sticks out and then dash in the air, hope this helps!
Game a little bit confusing to at start but still great concept, congrats on your first game!
A couple of bugs around the abilities seemed to make it trigger when I didn't expect it to. I think having some UI to say what power is active (and how to use it) would be helpful.
Still great concept and congrats on completing the jam!
Thanks so much! If i continue working on it that would be a great thing to implement!
Fell off the map and didn't even die, just moved around at the bottom. The visuals are pretty appealing, but the gameplay needs work.
Yeah, I couldn't get dying and respawning to work, so instead there is a platform off screen and when your on that platform pressing R moves the player back to the start.
