Very creative game with great desing and visuals. Its really a hidden gem!

Developer

Thanks a ton! That's super awesome to hear, I appreciate that A LOT!

Submitted

The game feels really good, but the timer is too short to be enjoyable :/

Developer

Thanks for the comment! Your feedback has been dearly noted! :)

Submitted

Really well polished game! Congrats on this! Once the game reveals itself, it's a very cool concept and constanting requires a rewiring of your brain that is quite fun.

If i had to criticize, as other people have said, the timer feels very punishing. If it was twice as long as it is now for every level, I feel like that would be fine, though I am honestly not even sure that the game needs a timer. Between the puzzle solving, platforming, and obstacles, a timer on top of it all feels a bit much. I also would have been great if there were ability indicators on the colored wires as well (kinda like how there are on the arrow keys). Even after ten minutes of playing, I found myself constantly having to remind myself which color did which ability.

Overall, though, suberb game! 

Developer

Thanks! The timer has indeed been a point of contention, it's bothering many and many are saying they like it! I think primarily for the design I was aiming for a more difficult speedrunning style experience, but that may not have been the best thing to go for in a jam like this haha ^^

Thank you ever so much for the feedback, all points have been noted! 

Submitted

Fun, well paced, great graphics and audio and the mechanic related to the theme were great. 5/5!

Developer

Thanks a ton <3 I'm super happy you enjoyed it!

Super creative idea and the visuals are amazing. One thing I'd change though is to either make the timer much more lenient, or have the demon eat the keys at the start of the level. For example, it feels pretty annoying when I have to dash over a ledge but the demon eats the dash key right before that, and then I have to start the level over and remap that key anyways.

Developer

Thank you ever so much for the nice comments and feedback! :)

Amazing art style and gameplay, overall insanely polished for a jam game, only complaint is the timer is too fast so it was incredibly hard to beat a few levels. That being said this is def a favorite of mine!

Developer

Thank you! <3 I'm super glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

Incredible game, the visuals are just stunning and the overall concept is brilliant. Really good job here, keep up the good work :D

Developer

Thanks mate <3 That means a lot!

Submitted

The first thing I liked was the amount of levels for a game jam, being in a group sure makes better and bigger proyects I haven't found any downsides at all and the theme implementations was awesome. Good Job

Developer

Hey thanks mate! Glad to hear someone got through all the levels haha ^^

Submitted

Fun! Love the visuals

Developer

Thank you! I'm super glad you liked it!

Submitted

Fantastic job! Creative idea, love the gameplay, graphics are on point!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words!

Submitted

The Idea is neat. the presentation is rock solid
I'm not super fan of having to switch from gamepad to mouse though.

It might make for a good two player game though (One player controlling and the other fixing the pad)

I think it would work well in a game convention.

Hey thanks! We were actually joking about playing it coop that way during development, would surely create some frustrations between friends XD

Submitted

very fun, very difficult. Definitely gonna pick this one up later!

Developer

Looking forward to when you finish the whole thing!

Submitted

Super impressive! really fun and the art is beautiful :D

Developer

Glad you like it!

Submitted

Very amazing! I like the art very much!

Developer

Glad you like the art, I think our artists did a really good job on it!

Submitted

I like how the game looks and feels, well done

Developer

That's good to hear, thank you for the kind words!

Submitted

On the same boat as the other comments, the difficulty goes up way too fast. Nonetheless, it's a really smart concept, and well executed.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

Submitted

Maybe too difficult - the timer runs out pretty quickly, considering you have to take time to manually change your controls - but else you did a fantastic job ! The design is solid and the art is fun, so that’s a good note for me ^^

Thanks for the compliments! I agree that if we had more time we could've tweaked the difficulty in the game somewhat by changing button destruction order or changing the timer to make the difficulty curve more forgiving.

simply amazing work. I'd say you went too far with the difficulty and learning curve, maybe make more stretched out tutorial levels? well, 5 stars in everything anyway

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback. We definitely could've spent some more time balancing the levels but time was tight in a game jam.

fully understand! couldn't deploy my game by the time haha. I hope you get to the 100 rank!

Developer(+1)

Really it was just me being a dick about how hard the levels should be :D I like my punishing games lol!

Submitted

This looks amazing! Everything is so polished, the game play is very fun and it fits the theme perfectly, great work!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words!
