Customization options! Love it. Had fun with this one on stream and left feedback there if you wanted to watch. Excellent entry with a lot of care and polish put into it. Great work.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. Honestly, when I uploaded my game it thought I wasn't gonna make it past round one, but you guys have shown me that I have what it takes to be a game developer.

Wow, this is absolutely incredible! The atmosphere of this game is great, and the art style is stunning! I'm very curious to see what additional levels of this game would be like.

Best entry I've played so far. Beautiful artwork and really cool post apocalyptic environment. The level was very well mapped out for a metroidvania type game and the character was cool (reminded me of the movies 'Chappie' and 'I am Mother'). Amazing stuff!

Very cool game. I found a cave where was a levitating monster and a lot of coins. It would have been nice to see the monster actually doing something in the future.

Thank you! I had made a state machine for the enemy, but I decided to scrap the combat because i was running low on time.

Nice entry all around, fun moody atmosphere. I managed to find the little cave of the coins and sinister monster (and of course, ride on its head for a moment haha). Couple places felt a little too dark, you can lighten colors but then hue shift to cools to make a little more visible, since some platforms were rather hard to see. Nice work, curious to see where it goes!

This is beautiful.  Very well thought out.  Would love to see this fleshed out into a full game.  And the ability to customize your character from the main menu was a nice touch for more contrast.  (Actually inspired a mechanic idea.  Adding that to my game dev notebook!)  Great work!

This was such a cool game! the music was very good, and the atmosphere was astounding! all the effects like the rain and dust really added too it.

Love the styling and polish, especially the main menu. One thing I would change is to make sure all platforms and important elements have high contrast with the background, e.g. your ashy friend would be a lot more visible if they had glowy eyes or lit up the background behind them

Thanks for the feedback! in the future I will try to improve on this.

This is really impressive. I can tell a lot of thought and effort has gone into its making, love the atmosphere you have created and the art and colours are really nice
