I enjoyed the game a lot, I like the concept and the use of theme + requirement. The only thing I can comment on is the controls, as a lot of people mentioned, there are some bugs with collecting paintings posthumously.

Thanks for playing, it makes me happy to know you enjoyed it. I appreciate everyone's feedback. After the grading period, I plan on going back and fixing the scene transition, so the game is playable after you die the first time. As of right now, I don't think anything works when you respawn. Having to refresh the page is a lame excuse. Also I want to fix the resolution. I had a super hard time figuring out what resolution to publish the game at. The Da Vinci and Cogs (hearts) would end up being other objects when I tried a normal resolution. Check back in a week or two, and I'll make sure it's less of a buggy mess!

Angry Renaissance man: "That damn Da Vinci, always flying in his ridiculous contraptions, but not today! BOYS, GET THE  ARROWS AND BOMBS!"

Da Vinci: "Oh sweet a floating painting!"

This game is wacky, I love the tongue and cheek humour, the silly south park style Da Vinci in the corner with the lip flaps that makes his whole head tilt. You definitely nailed the theme and it gave me some chuckles, good job!

Developer

Thank you, glad we made someone laugh lol!  After we decided that Da Vinci should talk, and I realized my animation skills are awful, the fly trap mouth was the only way to go.

I don't think the controls were working for me... I had a really hard time flying up. But overall, a very silly piece of history, good job.

Developer

Thanks I appreciate the feedback. I ran into that bug as well. I'm not sure why it happens. I need to dig into it. I kept trying to get more features into the game because I didn't think it would be fun enough, but then I ended up with a lot of bugs. lesson learned: Play test and fix along the way.

I found that if I refreshed the page it would normally fix the "not being able to fly up" issue

I like that it has a sense of humor and arcade style.

Developer

Thanks, I had the idea before the remote control requirement was posted but I was imagining it more serious. Once I saw the requirement I decided it would be funny if he was controlling the flying machine remotely. And if I was trying to be funny, might as well lean into it. Arcade style is a good way of putting it. I wasn't sure what kind of game this was when Itch asked me for a genre lol!

Cool game, but had to unfortunately restart the whole game two times due to game breaking bugs. The best part about this game is the talking canadian Da Vinci tho.

Thanks for playing! Sorry about the game breaking bugs. I need to fix something in the scene management. It doesn't restart the game properly when you click try again. I need to figure out how to wipe the scene clean and start it again. My favorite part is the Canadian Da Vinci too lol!
