This is my favorite game out of the entire jam I have played so far. It's got everything, simplicity, difficulty to master, and a fitting art style. Five stars all across. I am afraid to suggest any changes because everything already fits together so well.

Love the concept. It gives the whole game a poetic and philosophical vibe. Gameplay is well-polished as well. The long tunnel is pure evil tho.

This is one of those games that are aggravating to play, but are so fun to watch others play it. Couldn't beat it myself the first time around, but I'm so glad I got to watch it get played on Twitch the other day. 

The presentation is really consistent and the music is catchy. Loved the grunts the player makes.

Overall, really good jam entry!

Really fun, but I'd appreciate if it was easier to get out of the pit once at the start. It's faster and easier to just restart entirely than to try and throw the body out of the hole.

I feel strong "Getting over it" vibes. Really clumsy - in a positive way. :)

amazing game, but respectfully, screw you for making that one hole that slides you all the way back to the beginning xD

I found this game to be a delight!
Personally, I would really love it if there were more "checkpoint" spots, and if the frequency of pitfalls was turned down a little bit earlier on, and then ramped up more as it went on. That being said, I also accept that changes like that could just take away from the intended experience, and would just be a no-go lol

At any rate, I'd love to see a post-jam update and I wish you the best of luck in the jam!

What a great concept, you nailed the theme, but damn, Getting Over It has nothing on this!

Good music, UI/art style is nice, physics is fun, very mean to add spikes 75% through lol. I swear ill beat it.


Chat - "almost 2 hours playing" "most relaxing game of all time"

Frustrating. Painful. I love it.

Hella fun and addicting! It's like reverse Getting over it ahahaha and I am definitely not skilled enough to get through it.

The presentation is really nice :)

Unfortunately this is a very tricky game to play on both a trackpad and touch controls, but this seems to be a pretty difficult game by nature

Developer

yea unfortunately it was made for mouse users, i'm sorry for that. i've tested with touch controls, it's "doable" but way harder indeed. but yea, even with a mouse it's pretty difficult hahaha

Has a certain quality of "Getting over it"

Very fun but i got stuck in the hole :(

Submitted(+1)

I couldn't finish it because it was a little too hard, but one of my favorite implementations of "control the level" this jam. Good job!

Developer

well i don't know if it should reassure you or not, but i wasn't able to finish it either hahaha i know for sure that it is possible, i've carefully tested each jump many times, but it's a challenge even for me! happy you liked the premises!

very polished, good job!
