This game is just amazing. One of the best designs and ideas I have seen during this jam. Probably the best rated fom all I have seen as it is original, well made and fun! :)

Developer

Thank you. I am glad you liked it.

Awesome idea and design! One of the best I've tried

Developer

Thank you.

Nice game! I really liked graphics and sound, puzzles were also fun. However once I was stuck when I choose the wrong path, it would be nice if there was  "restart level" button.

Overall cool game :)

Developer

Thank you. I am glad you liked it. You can restart a level by pressing "R" (it is more like a self destruct button).

Really nice game! Loved the puzzles just wished there were more. Only thing for me was the bird attack was a bit strange (not sure if there was any feedback for attacking)

Developer

Tank you. I am glad you liked it. The bat attack really had no feedback. I was thinking of adding a close ranged wave effect with the attack but didn't have time unfortunately.

One of the best Originality game in this jam. I never think one classical platform game can be made like this. So creature. And your pixel art is very nice. 

Developer

Thank you.

Hey, this one really drew me in, way to go! I love all these bizarre monsters and figuring out what they do. I loved that level with the two claw things on the bottom and two stationary cannons on top, excellent layout.
My criticism is that giant black spot in the center that obfuscates all the monsters, but now that I look at your thumbnails I see it's supposed to be a nice pretty moon! For some reason it was loading as black for me?
Anyways, great job, and thanks for playing Einnsámr!

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Thank you. I am glad you liked it. The black moon is probably a lighting error. I don't what caused it since I can't replicate the bug, but I think it is expected since I am using an experimental unity feature (LWRP 2D Renderer) that was released just a week ago. I should have used the unlit shaders since I don't use lighting anyway but I was lazy. Playing Einnsámr was a pleasure for me.

Ahhhh no worries, stuff like that happens all the time in jams! We have a bug where you can possess the decorative pieces that aren't on the board haha 😝 Your game was still fun and you should be proud of it.

Wow this game was awesome. Love the idea.

LIKE.

Developer

Thank you.

I love the simple artwork and sounds! Only the background image got a little boring after few levels you could have at least change some colors.

I finished all the levels and the difficulty ramp was really nice. Very good level design and polish! I wish there were more levels it was so much fun.

Thank you for making this game!

Developer

Thank you. I am glad you liked it. I really like the idea of changing the background color across the levels, it totally didn't come to my mind during the jam.

Very solid in terms of puzzle and controls ! The screenshake might be a little excessive but I enjoyed the atmosphere, and the levels are just enough for the variety of monsters.

Developer

Thank you. I too feel that the screen shake is excessive, I will tune it down in the post jam.

This is a cool platform puzzler. It's easy to understand and I enjoyed it very much, especially the last level. I wish there were more of levels like the last one BUT for the short time of two days it's a great job!!!

Developer(+1)

Thank you. I am glad you enjoyed it. I too hoped to do more complex levels but I was always a failure at time management unfortunately.

Submitted

Yeah it's as always not enough time, but for that short amount of two days it's great :)

If you may like, you could play and rate our entry :)

The game plays pretty well, and it's immediately pretty fun to commandeer a new set of legs and go for it. The last level, while pretty tight in its ordering, shows how fun this mechanic can be. Wish that there could be more puzzley spots like that!

Our largest complaint is how slow the rope-like enemy takes to retract. We spent a decent bit of time waiting for it to come back to us for swordinating purposes.

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you. Too bad I left very little time for level design (I always do this mistake), I was hoping to flesh it out as a puzzle game during idea generation but I had only 1 hour to design all the levels before the deadline, so I kept everything at an introductory level. That's why I didn't put "puzzle" in the tags but I will hopefully do it in the post jam version. Also, I totally agree about the vine monster speed, It also frustrates me and I will surely fix it in the post jam too.

Very nice puzzle game! I enjoyed the dark, rainy night theme, the juice was there, but some beasts were difficult to get the hang of, and some of the AI was frustrating. All in all though, great concept, great execution.

Developer

Thank you. I think I can guess which AIs were frustrating since they frustrate me too :D

Really pleasant puzzle game. Like your color choices as well.

Developer(+1)

Thank you. I also wanted to say that I like you profile picture and your music on SoundCloud.

Thanks !

The picture is made using Satyarth's pixel sorting algorithm : https://github.com/satyarth/pixelsort) #SpreadingTheLove (and a bit of Photoshoping afterwards)

I really like that you can play with all this character. It is a nice puzzle game.

Developer

Thank you. I am glad you liked it.

One of the best games this jam, would love to see this as a full game!

Developer

Thank you.

Really unique take on the theme, i liked it overall, the vine monsters retract far too slowly which makes it quite frustrating but overall nice game

Developer(+1)

Thank you. I am glad you liked it. You are totally right about the vine speed. I initially made it slow to prevent it from retracting quickly before I can attack, but in the end it turned out to be frustrating in some levels. My brother suggested adding some idle time after expanding then retracting faster after that. I will probably fix this in the post jam version.

Great game is hard but fun and the design is very pretty!

Developer(+1)

Thank you.

Oh man this is probably my favorite game submitted by far! The art is nice, the puzzle design was nice, everything had a nice feel, controls worked, it all just works!

Finding a new enemy is exciting because you wonder how you'll get to use it (kind of like Mario Odyssey). Overall great game.

Developer(+1)

Thank you. I am really glad that you liked it.
