This was really sweet! I loved the progression of movement and visibility depending on what parts are attached. The music and art were really immersive. Great work!

How does your game fit the theme?
You play as a dismembered teddy bear that joins its limbs back together. Every limb you find recovers some of your abilities, and once everything's been joined together you can leave the house.

Lovely and very cinematic presentation. The story was also pretty sweet. I specifically liked how your vision is obscured before you pick up the other eye. Cute game!
I kept trying to climb the child's bed with the cubes, but they were too finicky so I gave up on that and then I realized what I was supposed to do, that made me feel quite silly lol
Sorry for not getting a chance to play your game during a stream but I am running out of time and had a hefty amount of games to get through so I am just playing and rating at this point! Thank you for your understanding :D
Enjoyed playing it. Felt like inside of some Disney animation.. Great work !
Nice little game you have made. I have liked, that you have added controller support, too.
I love collecting stuff in platformers. The different abilities in different phases was a great idea!
In my opinion the walking sound is a little bit monotonous, 3-4 sound randomly changing could have sold that problem.
Maybe a button for "running"? Altought, that could have broke the intended gameflow.
I liked the fact how you unlocked new mechanics with new pieces of the teddy bear. Good job making this in under 48 hours!
P. S. I loved the easter egg.
this was a fun game! you did a great job with the game and the cinematics gosh lol the most I've ever experience in a game jam
This was a very endearing short but sweet game, I really enjoyed that with each limb you collected your movement and abilities changed up. I also appreciated the overall themes you explored here, I think this game has something really special going for it :)
One issue I bumped into a few times was that the physics would occasionally go very wonky and put me in some rough places, for instance when jumping across the shelves to your your legs sometimes I was sent flying by the pots
Great job though, you two made something really memorable!
Hey, thanks for playing!
Yeah the physics thing is something we've been hearing a lot. In hindsight it might have been a bit too ambitious to use actual physics for a 48 hour jam. I'm preparing a post jam patch and I "fixed" the physics issue by giving the player an achievement if they glitch out too much 🙃.
Anyway, thanks for your incredibly kind words :)
At the start of the game Camera work, music and 3D graphics are very good! It is also unique that the operation method changes when the character gets the parts.
You have a whole intro? And the game is 3D? Well done.
This was a nice change of pace from all the 2D platformers. The only thing I didn't figure out is if there is an end game. I got all of the teddy bear parts and then tried to stack the cubes to get back into the crib, but handling the cubes is not very precise.
Thank you for playing and your feedback is much appreciated! Yes, there is an endgame and you don't need the crib for it. If you go to the hallway you will find a staircase and at the bottom of it is an open door. If you go through the door you will have finally found your freedom and can live happily ever after as a whole teddy bear :)
I love the finding pieces and gaining more abilities - eyesight, hearing, jumping, walking, grabbing things, ... This is incredible for the 48 hours Jam, I'm very impressed, good job!
I did like it, but the physics were a bit janky, espacially when I tried to stack the boxes. Otherwise, I like it, very cute! :D
I though this was an excellent little game, I liked that you start to hear noises only when you find the ears. very relaxing to play
Slow to play, but the music and overall ambience compensate for it - I liked the simple mechanics, box physics were a little glitchy but that's a minor thing. Oh, and FYI it brought my Quadro 2200M graphics card to its knees at 100% usage, you might want to add an FPS cap :)
This is definitely the most cinematic jam game I've ever played. I liked all the little touches as you're collecting your parts too, where your vision gets better when you grab an eye, the music kicks in when you get your ears... Very charming!
