Pretty cool concept, I think it could be expanded upon. (also check out my game to anyone out there who hasn't)

Thanks for Feedback!

This was quite fun and challenging. After the first few levels it did feel like you could only move a little bit each time because of how much exchange was needed, just made the levels drag on a bit. I think some type of indicator of which character you're currently controlling would help, so that you don't have to move to find out. But very nice, and nice puzzle design.

Nice puzzle game.

Just sometimes need to wait too long for a switch. Nice art work btw.

Muito buraco para pouco chao e personagens nostalgico

Nós iremos rever alguns conceitos após a gamejam! Esperamos que você tenha gostado!

I'm impressed of how well done the game is. The presentation and the music are perfect. I will sugdest to let the player drop the crates when the red alien is holding them. Is pretty frustrating have to restart because you wasted all of your crates in wrong holes or have to die to pick them again. Anyway, nice game!

Developer

We are sorry for what happened, pressing F you drop the box, however, we understand that it was not so clear! Let's review some elements after the gamejam!

Interesting game. Reminds me of the Kafei segmant from Majora's Mask which i liked a lot. Needs some polish but could make a really cool little game out of this if you were to continue with it.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! We really want to continue on this project, we are very happy to receive comments like this!

I really like this idea, having these characters help each other out is awesome. Although I think having just 2 out of those 3 things being out of control would have been enough, it was getting a little bit frustrating that just as I was getting by barrings, something would switch. However, I loved the presentation, sound and puzzle design. Great work!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! We will rethink some of these elements after the gamejam! We hope you had fun!

Charming little game. Got no further criticisms to add.  Good Job :)

Submitted(+1)

First of all, kudos for the impressive amount of puzzles and mechanics you've managed to pull off. Your game is visually compelling, I liked the mysterious sound and the concept is cute. 

I think the major flaw in the game is actually coupled with the theme of the jam: the loss of control, in puzzle games, might be super frustrating **once you've solve the puzzle in your head**. More than often I found myself just waiting for the right character to show up, or almost getting to the right position before falling into a hole. 

I think that it's not a fundamental issue: if the player had a way to improve the chances that a specific character would get nominated next, or maybe get to choose every other round, or perhaps if there were multiple ways to solve each puzzle... anything that would not make me just wander around until the vital character shows up. Maybe sticking to a grid could feel a bit more tight in terms of accidents, but that's a minor technical comment :)

Great job!

Developer

Thank you very much for the feedback! We are not really satisfied with some of these elements, we need to revise the level design! On the question of the characters, we are thinking of simply leaving the player in control, who he will use, or simply reducing the chances of a character being selected when he becomes useless!

This was cute! The game had a lot of charm in the characters, and the grungy levels looked really nice. It follows the prompt very well, perhaps a little too well, with the pervasive theme of Out of Control. While the puzzles were nice, I think the game would have been helped with something showing a sort of "queue" so you could plan for what creature you would become next. On top of this, the level flipping is just fine, but it definitely felt a bit tacked-on for what it brought to the game itself. The primary concern with it is the reversed controls, had the level flipped and the controls still were oriented up, down, left, and right, I feel that the game would have been much stronger.

Overall, the music was good, the puzzles were good, the characters were cute, and the control swap was just a little bit much. Overall, a good game!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! We will reevaluate some concepts after the gamejam! We hope you had fun!

Nice game!! It's a neat idea, it's a bit stiff but that's time constraints of course. You should expand the idea further!! Great job!

Developer

Thank you! We are thinking about reevaluating some concepts and maybe even moving forward with the project!

Submitted

you totally should! It's a great idea!, Congrats!

It's a good little puzzler with the traditional approach of character swapping. With the level already changing at random time and making the control funky because it doesn't follow the angle of the camera, I felt that not being able to swap character at will was a tad to much. I know we want to respect the theme as much as possible in a jam, but not at the expanse of fun.

As for the rest, I like the art style, the music fit without being annoying, the overall puzzle and mechanic are good.  Overall, you have a good game :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! We will rethink some concepts after the gamejam, it was our first participation in a gamejam, we were apprehensive about leaving the topic, but we will consider several elements to be reevaluated!

Submitted(+1)

It follows the theme "out of control" a little to much perhaps :) Interesting concept and characters, i like the red one :) good job!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Post gamejam, let's review some concepts that we decided! We are in internal conflicts over which character is the coolest! Point to the red!

I really liked the idea of the three aliens with different abilities!

However I had one problem with the gameplay: having to wait a timer for changing character was a bit boring.

My suggestion would be to give the player the possibility to switch aliens, but with a time limit.

I also liked the music

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for the feedback! We are considering modifying the project after the gamejam! We are thinking about the possibility of really allowing the player to choose the character he wants, at the time he wants! We hope you had fun!

This was a cute little puzzle game. Good job!

THANKS! ^-^

Really interesting concept! I liked how each character had different traits that you needed to figure out. The sound effects were a really nice touch. Having only one character with a light was a bit hard to get used to, but I understand the decision.

The hitboxes on the characters were a bit rough, as I sometimes had to wait almost a minute in order to get back to one character to move him slightly. But besides all that, it was a pretty enjoyable experience :)

Nice job!

Developer

We are happy that you enjoyed it, spending the time with GameJam, we are thinking of really resuming with the project, and maybe, seeing how it would be with the player being able to switch between characters at any time!

Great work here, very cool and nice looking art and overall presentation! A great entry for a 48 hour game jam. The controls could have been nicer, like diagonal movement for example. Good work though!

Developer

Thanks for the review! We are still thinking about the possibility of diagonal movement, but we think it would not be a good idea, let's consider your feedback, and give diagonal movement a chance! We hope you enjoyed it!

Submitted(+1)

Wow, very confusing xD, the concept of the game is very interesting, and turning the camera is a very good point, good job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! We hope you had fun!
