Nice game :)
After playing through all the games in the jam, I've made a post on some of my favorites and included your game! Check it out here.
Played this on stream. Check out the vod here for my thoughts. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1007516720?t=01h43m02s . Unfortunately, the stream cut out part way through without me realizing it, but you can see the rest of my playthrough here https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1007655980
Thank you for the detailed feedback! It's really helpful to understand what we could improve in this and future games :)
Yay, I found a glitch in the game :-D
When you place a mirror, rotate it, but not fix it into position - than reset the level, the mirror is still configurable. In other words, hitting the X will grant you another mirror for that level :-)
I love the artwork and music! So chill <3
Thanks for the feedback! Nice find on the mirror reset - definitely something that slipped through the testing cracks :)
Really fun puzzle game, some really good brain teases in there. Getting used to predicting the reflections took some time for me, but it was pretty intuitive once I wrapped my head around it. Would love to see more puzzles/mechanics added to this game.
Thanks! We had a list of other mechanics too, but had to trim the scope to make it in time :) Would definitely add more if we continue with this one!
Love that graphics, probably the most elaborated in the whole gamejam. I wish I could create graphics like this. What did you use to draw that?
As a suggestion, it would be great to add some feedback sounds, like clicking buttons etc. Also, to make the wierdo moves a little bit more lively I would suggest to try spring animations
Anyway, this is one of the most polished game in this jam
Thanks for the feedback! Feedback sounds were actually on the TODO but didn't make it in because we ran out of time :)
The graphics were done on XP-Pen Pro tablet and Photoshop.
I'm absoluty in love with the background art! And the smooth jazz music in the background was a excellent choice : ) I stumbled upon a few little bugs in the game (in level 3 i clicked on reset, but the game didn't removed all mirrors). But great work so far!
Thanks for the feedback! I think one of the biggest takeaway lessons for us this Jam was to leave a day for testing :)
Great graphics and great gameplay :) It the little details in the presentation and polish (like minor animations and a tutorial) really made game like this stand out.
Thanks!
Excellent presentation, with a nice twist on the Deflektor genre. Had a bug where it froze after level 3, and the sequence once you press play could be quicker, but nice work.
Thanks for the feedback! Fixing that bug is the no 1 TODO for this game :)
Never knew I needed Steampunk Cat Scientists till now! I loved the puzzle design, maybe the creatures are made out of photons so that's why they bounce? I would have liked if there was a skip animation button, for when you've only made a small mirror angle mistake and don't want to watch the whole thing again. And of course, the background music slaps. Good job on this one!
Thanks for the feedback! Totally agree on the skip (we also though having a reset that doesn't remove mirrors a good idea too :) ).
The graphics are easily 5/5. Maybe even 6/5.
Thanks!
Fun puzzle game! I love the graphical style, it looks amazing! The mirror mechanic was a bit tricky at first, could've used some UX with prediction lines or something. But after some trial and error, I got it under control.
Thanks for the feedback! There's definitely a number of UX improvements we'd like to make if we continue developing this one :)
Great job on this one, The BGM is fire !
Thanks! Too bad the band doesn't exist anymore, we really liked the tune too!
