Nice game, I played the whole way through.

The only thing I think didn’t sit right was the swinging axes. I wasn’t able to find a guaranteed way to overcome them each time.

Every other aspect is solid however :)

Thanks for playing! I had a feeling after the jam that people would have trouble with those, glad you enjoyed it anyways!

Your average rank is #32 in GMTK 2025! Congrats!

I felt bad that there is no average score, because some teams aimed for all categories, not just one. So I just scrapped the results page and made a table. I agree with "Mark" that "Overall" is questionable, but I still think "Average" is a valuable score, so I decided to share it.

Thanks for doing this, really cool to see!

Amazing - extremely well done, great polish for a jam game. Very fun parkour with a decent difficulty curve, and perfect execution of the jam loop theme! Well done.

Forgot to mention: I loved the tv character and the laugh track was perfect!

Didn't manage to finish but very enjoyable. Nice touch to keep upping the player number each time on the front screen. Sometimes dying quite quickly would set me back one checkpoint earlier and if that happened twice in a row I felt like I was losing progress.

Great game, and good tutorial, although I can’t finish it rn

Firebelley posted a playthrough if you want to see the end (timestamp 2:36:39):

Really great stuff. Fun and clever. Bloody hard. I watched a steam to see what the end had in store and it was funny as expected. !;) 

Also, very well put together. Options, Tutorial (that it remembers you've watched), runs smooth, sound is well done, nails an atmosphere.

Love this! simple yet amusing. I wonder if behind the scenes you're just constantly deleting everything behind the player and loading new things

Super polished game. Fits the theme perfectly. Tricky, dark, and fun. No spoilers though. Well done.

Developer

Thank you!

I really liked the style and the music of the game, going in circles definitely didn't screw with my sense of orientation at all, I'm definitely fine.

Fun game and a nice interpretation of the theme!

Developer

Appreciate you playing!
