Did you work in a team?
Yes. I did the programming and my friend artunn made the music! It was fun.

Was the resolution a challenge?
Nope. All games should be 64x64!

What did you learn?
I did not overworked myself! I work very orderly in the beggining, even made a 2D prototype before moving into 3D, which helped later. This is my first 3D game.

Pretty addictive game, got 211 but will keep on grinding. 

I'd change the aspect ratio after the jam and make it wider because offten I had to turn a lot.

Very  nice! I think I kinda suck at it, but I enjoyed it anyway. ;)

The graphics are good and the music is great, but I think the "just one more try!" gameplay is the true hero here! :)

Developer

Thank you :D

Good job.  The music was very inspiring.

That was fun! I had trouble with it initially because I didn't notice the shadows until a few runs in (I know, I really should have read the description). Once I looked for the shadows and did some wall-jumping, I got into the flow of the game. I only got to 166, but I enjoyed doing it.

Developer

Oh thanks! I would like to make the shadows much more attention grabbing if I had full control over them (for an example they could flash red) but at this point I'm only using the engine lightning. Fun fact: Being aware of both above and below was a design chalange for the game that I didn't realize until the game was almost done. I think I solved it with shadow and TPS view to a degree. But among my horrible initial ideas was even a split-screen top-view camera ugh. 166 is good! CAT is a try-hard who also happens to be my brother :D

Developer

(edited, posted here now) I really like how trippy it is to look at 3d objects slowly getting closer in such a low resolution, this is such a nice little neat submission. also i'm just proud of my 100 score lol

Developer (1 edit)

3D objects in a distance at lowrez is such a nice effect, likes can be found in last years Pixel Hunt and Norman's Sky. Thank you! And I'm proud of you :D
