Good music and graphics, but lose by a bullet fired out of the screen is quite frustrating xD.

Developer

Thank you so much!
I knowww, I wish I could make that easier, but can't do it 'til the jam ends xD

Highly original idea innovaitve game with sweet music and graphics

Developer

Thank you! I tried my best to make a heartwarming environment with the music and graphics! And thought being able to kick your companion to work as a weapon would be funny!

Nice Story .. but I can't Pass stage 1

Developer

Thank you, Eyad! Glad you liked it, I wish I could make it easier and add a couple checkpoints but sadly can't do it until jam ends 😖
Your game is great as well, good luck on the jam!

Amazing music and art! Really original and smart. Good work!

Developer

Thank youuu, R4G33! I did my best on those aspects of the game! I know it might be hard but glad you could enjoy it!

The game was great and the music is awesome i really love it.  i think you should delete the bullet if it is outside the screen. i always die because their is a bullet coming when i go to next screen. the enemy from the next screen shoot even you are not in that screen. But over all it was very nice and relaxing.

Beautiful well done man :')

Developer

Aw, man, it means a lot to me you're saying that, I wanted to make it storyrich, really happy to know you liked my game!

The intro literally made me cry. Anyone who has had a dog and experienced when a dog leaves this world has probably felt the same way. The music is great. You are really talented and I wish you success in your music career. The only complaint is that it would be better to continue from the same place after losing a life than to start all over again.

Developer

Hi! I'll be honest, wasn't expecting to make this huge impact with the story but I'm so happy you commented!
I tried my best to make the story, graphics and music heartwarming! Thanks for the support, I'll try my best to make it into the music world someday, that means a lot to me, Letipas, appreciate it a lot!
About the checkpoints, I wish I could add more, didn't think about that before deadline, but I'll surely fix it after the jam, and extend it, didn't think this game would have so positive feedback!

Well done, your game is beautiful. The movement and the effects really suited the game and the art and music was perfect. And yep, the game will be better when you do the save level update.

Developer

Appreciate your feedback a lot, Bubble Maker, I really put a lot of effort into art! Glad you read the previous comments too xD
I'll make it easier and extend it after the jam is done!

The audio is amazing. I also love the background and start art. But the game is a bit too hard.

Submitted(+1)

Played your game:
The graphics are AMAZING, i never thought  gdevelop could look so beautiful.
The music is awesome aswell, the voice acting is not too shabby, not proffesional but not cringe worthy, however sometimes i couldnt hear the voice acting because the music was too loud

and the art is really good without being impressive, simple straight forward, gets the job done.

the controls are responsive in terms of movement, sometimes i hit a bump that i needed to jump over but it didn look that way

here is the thing that kills me, the game is simply way too hard, the hit detection is not very good, kicking the soul is unresponsive at times and inaccurate, if i missed an enemy from a screen before, i would be kicking it backwards and not forwards like i wanted to, i couldnt beat the "lost place" because there are no checkpoints, this would be fine but enemies shoot me off screen, which feels super cheap, and enemies are placed too close to the edge of the screen which makes me run straight into them.

might sound dis-heartening but trust me, you are on the right path, keep going my man

Developer

Thank you so much for such a detailed feedback, TwoCrownProductions!
I'm so happy you liked the art style, and the music, that means a lot to me. I'll try to improve my voice acting skills for next time!
I wish I had more time to polish the difficulty, surely I would've worked a lot more on the gameplay but I'll do my best to make it worth playing after the jam is done!
And it's okay, don't worry, it's not dis-heartening, I really appreciate your feedback a lot, that helps me improve!

Developer

Did u made an account just to comment¿ Appreciate it! Sorry it reminds you about that but hopefully you had fun

Submitted(+1)

I don't know why you said you couldn't do art because it is probably one of the best graphics I've seen in this game jam!

Developer

That's super kind of you, thank you so much! They're pretty simple 'cause I was running out of time but I'm glad you can see beauty in it!

Okay I am just gonna say it. If you don't win 1# in the Audio category I am going to question every person's power of judgement at this jam and lose hope in humanity. You clearly have a huge musical talent and a way of creating great vibes and aesthetics. Awesome job my dude!
