Nice job on the theme, love the nesting dolls. Well done!
Great idea to go with the nesting dolls theme! The mood is nice and you made a solid puzzle game, congrats!
Literally the best game I played so far from this game jam. Incredible level design and fun mechanics!
Solid Controls and Loved the Level Design and Enviroment
thanks for playing :)
This is genuinely a really fun game. I love the concept here. It's super unique and the way it's incorporated into the theme is really cool. The doll assets are also kinda cute. I love how they wobble when they walk. A lot of the puzzles had me stumped for quite a while: They were cleverly designed and decently challenging without feeling too unfair. I felt very satisfied after solving them, I can tell you that much, haha. Switching between the dolls felt a bit clunky at first, but I think I got used to it after a while. The visuals do their job well, and the ambient type music in the background is nice, even if it isn't an original piece. All in all, probably one of the better entries I have played so far. 9/10. ^^
Thanks for playing!! I really enjoyed your game too :D
Nailed the theme here. Pretty solid platforming with minimal wonkiness. Good use of art and music assets. Great work dude!
thanks for playing! :D
I recognized your profile because flap & freeze was one of the game I enjoyed the msot last year, and I played this one with high expectations.
Well I'm not disappointed, I think this one's even better : perfect use of the theme with great originality, and an overall high quality game. Top 10 entry at least
I’m glad you thought so! Thanks for playing :D
I love this idea, it was super clever and fun to play
thanks for playing! :)
Love this! It was a really ambitious to do something this complex but it definitely paid off. The gameplay is super fun and a good challenge, which I like! Congrats and well done!
The level design in the game was on point! Specially loved the fan bit.
The holes to go to the next section can be bigger. I found myself failing to jump through them multiple times.
Yeah I should adjust to make the platforming a little more forgiving. Thanks for playing!!
Good Game!
thanks!! :)
This is very solid! ambitious to do a 3D game but you nailed it !
congrats on the submission very neat idea
thanks for playing!! :)
I really enjoyed solving the puzzles! The graphics were great and the theme was incorporated nicely! I can officially scratch off 'play a video game with Russian nesting dolls' off of my bucket list!
Amazing interpretation of the theme, you totally nailed it!
The concept works perfectly, really great job on creating this game in such amount of time.
Congrats!!!
thanks for playing :)
I am the bird. The bird is me. The bird is inside me. I am inside the bird.
What a cool game! This is a really unique take on the theme, and I enjoyed trying to figure out the puzzles.
thanks for playing! I’m glad you enjoyed :)
Great way to implement the theme.
Please make the restart button restart from the single level you are in rather than the whole section.
Thanks for playing! :) yeah I could have made the restart for each part, particularly on the shelf in the beginning
Wow impressive to create this in such a short amount of time! Loved the wobbling! And it's super fun! Cheers!
thanks for playing! :)
This is a great interpretation of the theme. The environment was very detailed and I really liked the wobbling movement. Quite hard at first but enjoyable.
thanks for playing and the feedback :)
This is such a nice multi-layered interpretation of the theme. I'm a fan of puzzle platformers and enjoyed seeing the nesting doll mechanic play out. The first couple levels were the hardest for me, until I understood the movement and controls and took a closer look around.
This is very impressive to me for being developed in such a short time. I found the movement controls a little clunky and I thought I fell off of stuff more easily than necessary (I have a vendetta against the wooden bird's head in the 4th level), but polishing up that kind of thing would take at least another week, I'm sure.
I enjoyed the details of the environment, such as the game on the computer screen. And the little wobble of the movement as you walk is so endearing!
There's a bug when you exit the peacock as a snowy owl. You turn into another peacock instead. It's not game breaking, though.
Thanks for playing! If I had more time I'd definitely try to work on the controls, I understand the platforming can be harder than was intended. Thanks for reporting that bug, I was able to quickly fix it before the submission (extension) ended!
Quick work! Thanks for the reply :)
