I like the unique level design here a lot. I had a hard time understanding what I was really supposed to be doing besides "explore", but I had a good time doing that, so not too bad!

Nice work!

Well, well, well, one could say, this game is buggy XP
I like the little literal bugs crawling around the screen.
The idea is nice and has potential :)

Cool idea! One glitch I found was in the dungeon level, I could turn from a guy into a cursor outside of the level, it would've also been nice to see where I was going to pop up as a cursor. Other than that it was a blast, great job!

Could you rate my game? I would really appreciate it, thanks!

Would have liked a bit of slow down when you die so I could see what killed me, as right now the game is very confusing at first. That said great job!

Nice concept, if it had more levels and mechanics, it could turn into a awesome game.

Developer

Thank you!

Great concept, but it's easy to glitch the game. However, it's worth daveloping this game because it has potential.

Developer

Thank you! Some of the glitches were intentional, but what were the ones you faced?

I really like the idea of playing as a cursor and the concept is pretty neat! However, it was a little confusing figuring out the abilities and how to play particularly with how fast you get to the blue screen.

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you! That makes sense, and if I develop this further I’ll try to add a transition where the screen turns off for a few seconds, like when my computer blue screens.

What a cool concept! Definitely took me a few trys to figure out what was going on. It might help to give players a bit more time before the apps blue screen of death so they can wrap their heads around what is going on. Overall nice execution on a novel concept!

Thank you, I’ll keep this in mind.

Neat game- kinda reminded me of those Animator vs Animation animations in a way!

Developer

Thank you!
