Liked the style of the graphics, very unique.
I thought the gameplay was very interesting with navigating the areas and doing the right things.
Really nice job on this game!
Fun concept weaving things together. Navigation was as struggle, it took a while for me to find the troll gal, it didn't seem like the arrows matched up. Also, giving the arrows an outline would have helped them stand out, I think I missed them. I 100% am going to start telling people to go fry some pickles.
This was awesome! I liked the music, took me back to playing old games!
The only issues I noticed were that I could talk to the sad guy in the forest even before the troll added the steps to them, not sure if that is intentional. Also the settings menu didn’t seem to work.
Also I found navigation a bit weird, I think the best way to put it is that I didn’t feel like I had any sense of direction and where I was in relation to things. for example on the forest level I’d assume clicking left and then right would take me back to where I was so I wasn’t doing it, but it ended up taking me to a new scene. This might just be me though and the way my brain was thinking about the world, as I haven’t played a game like this for a very long time :D
I loved the game! The Joker narrator is really fun! and I loved the point and click concept. Well done! I was able to get two of the drum instruments, but anyway, the game was easy to understand and the item uses made a lot of sense.
Game was pretty engaging, unfortunately I couldn't finish the game as the boy and his mother disappeared at the end. Still, it was enjoyable up to that point. I like the interweaving stories aspect, its definitely a unique concept. Also, the menu at the beginning didn't really seem to work, so I just kinda spammed random buttons until I got into the game. I will say that the Graphics looked pretty nice, and overall good work on the entry!
First and foremost, I love the art - the scenery is so detailed and the characters' and items' sprites look amazing.
The intertwining stories were pretty fun to unravel, and carrying your items between worlds is a fun concept that was taken advantage of in several different ways throughout the story, making for quite an enjoyable experience!
My only gripe is that it was easy to get stuck. I managed to gather what I can only imagine to be most of the items available, and ended up just clicking around, wondering if there was some interactable element that I was missing, or if there was a glitch that stopped the troll or scared boy from continuing their storylines. To that effect, some guidance, whether that be outlining interactable elements on hover, or a hint feature when stuck, could be something to consider in the future.
Great work on your first submission as a team!
