Nice game! I beat it :)

I had the same problem as other people falling off after reaching the chest, but I restarted.

Overall a fun time

Submitted

I played up until I went looking for a little girl at a lake. I found a treasure chest up high and opened it. Then I jumped over the chest and thru a gap that seemed to lead offscreen to the left and i fell out of the map. But prior to that I was loving the game, story and artwork! Well done!!

Submitted

Nice platformer with a cool premise. I like the art style, nice work overall! 

Submitted

I liked the story of the game, but I didn't expect so much dialogue.
  jumping felt a bit floaty, I think it needs more tweaking with the first half of the jump.
The leftmost room to the enemy fish, there are 2 entrances, the right one if above the platform where the camera will not follow you, you go right instead of left and you will fall off the edge and lock the game with no reset options
Great job overall!

Developer

Thank you so much! Yes I think I should have designed the entrance to the first enemy fish better.

    As for the jump, it is honestly the first time I focussed on doing anything other than just assigning a jump velocity and gravity. I used a gravity multiplier but that affects only the second half of the jump. I guess I should try tweaking the first half of the jump and add some acceleration deceleration while running as well.

It's a fun game to play, easy and no need to think about anything, just walk and shoot. But I only encountered one enemy.

Developer

Actually you'll encounter 5 enemies in total if you complete the story, which I realize is not much! I guess I should have added more enemies but I focussed more on the story. The first area has only one enemy and you can continue after completing the robot's quest.

Nothing happened when I fired the gun. Maybe something is broken?

Developer

That's strange. Did you press left click on the mouse? Also, you cannot fire while you are in dialogue maybe that's why?

Thanks!

I love games with their own world and lore! Very cool setting, beautiful aesthetically, with some interesting dialogues. So nice!

Enjoyed playing through this. It looks nice the mechanics are simple and easy to understand and the story/theme attachment is great. it's my kind of game!

Interesting one, bit too much lore for me but loved the empty chest..

Nice sprites!

Nice graphics in this game and crazy lore dump in the first few speaking interactions.  I got to the chest and laughed when there was nothing in side.  

Developer

Hey thanks a lot! This is my first game jam and it means a lot to me. I had actually planned on doing something with the chest but didn't have time so just left it empty. It looks like it was the correct choice. I'll play your game when I'm free I'm currently at work haha
