Nicely done. I'm a 90s kid and a lot of the assets were very nostalgic. I had that exact LoZ poster in my room. The knocked over soda being radioactive glowing green was a pretty funny visual gag also.

I liked the way you progress by moving upward in the room. It gave the game a feeling of exploration, wondering what I'd find next. 

Also the music was great. Kind of wistful and matched the nostalgia. Was it composed for this game?

Hey :)

A very cool game. The music fits very well :)

some feedback:

- for my opinion the movement was a little bit to fast. I often fell down because of the fast movement. But maybe it depends on my bad gaming skills ^^

- It felt a little bit strange to have the view right above the ground. Maybe you could move the camera view a little bit higher after the jam :)

but all in all a great game :) Keep it up!

Thank you for the feedback!

The movement speed was something I was contemplating on reducing but I didn't want to make players slowly backtrack around the level, but yeah, in the end, if it were toned down a little bit it probably wouldn't have hurt.

Yeah, field of view in platforming, especially in first person is tricky, perhaps moving the camera a bit above would have helped with depth perception.

Thanks for playing our game!

A really fun cute game, felt like a throwback to older platformers but it looks fantastic and runs smooth as butter. I wasn't expecting it to be difficult but was pleasantly surprised!

This game reminds me old toy story game when I was kid im playing with my ps1... good old days :')
It was fun to search batteries as a little toy and insert them for reach other areas. I liked how music change depend our position.  Im not a patient gamer so I found a bit boring to go back and try to jump again on a moving platform but thats the challenge... well done guys I had a good time ^^

Thank you so much for playing, we definitely talked about that toy story game after we started making this! Glad you enjoyed playing!
