This was such a cool game! Really creative use of the mechanic to make some so unique! I really had to get used to the idea of jumping downwards rather than upwards but it was still a lot of fun! Not sure how it fits into the 'health' theme though...

Developer

You end up being sucked into an UFO in the end and we had an idea for a mechanic that would emphasize “health” a little bit more, but we ended up having no time.

interesting concept I assume you can never escape the beam. I only made it to 32 seconds before I messed up and got hit by something. My other attempts lasted only 20 seconds or so except my first try went a entire 3 seconds since I was like lets get up there as fast as I can lol. 


Nice game

Developer

XD. Thanks for playing.

And yes, you can never escape the beam. Or can you? ;)

Submitted

lol I wouldn't know I never got out of its gravitational pull if we just talk about the viable beam then yes I can lol.

Nice game, I think it would be great for the beam to be infinite, rather than being stuck in just one space, but still fun nonetheless! 

Developer

Heyho, thank you for playing.

Not sure I understood what you meant. Infinite as in, the player can just keep jumping down forever instead of the camera being still all the time?

Submitted(+1)

Yeah, something like that, although  that may defy the purpose of the UFO being at the bottom. I suppose even just a graphical way to make it look like you are moving rather than being in one place. E.g. the background moves.

Developer

Got it! I think I understand now. Thank you for the suggestion :D

I loved this game congratulations to you for this game

Damn, Lez go!!

Thank you for playing :D

I spent a while just seeing how high I could get the timer, so thank you for adding that feature :D

Fastest time: 00:05:27

Longest time: 00:16:14

Thank you for playing :D

Love the concept! The art and music are both fantastic as well, the whole vibe is great. I did however find a way to exploit and survive for an infinite amount of time. If you just hold left or right you get stuck on the edge and dodge all the stuff, you can even jump there even though you're not on anything. I'm pretty sure it can be fixed by using a Physics Material2D with 0 friction on the player.


Overall though I loved it!

Developer

Heyho, thank you for playing.

Thank you very much, gotta look into it :D

I love the concept of upside-down platforming, The art and music were really great as well!

Developer

Thank you and thank you for playing :D

Enjoyed this a lot, especially the art and the unique concept. Sometimes it felt like my character got stuck on buildings/other environment when he wasn't touching it. Not sure if it's just a collider size thing or my own bad skill. I'll have to keep trying. 


The limitation "must go up" is kinda funny in this one. You will, eventually get sucked up by the UFO, but the struggle is trying NOT to go up. I chuckled at that little twist.

Developer

Thanks! Yes the character getting stuck is a balance issue but lets say it's a feature :)

Music is great :) I like the start of the game and animation. I am not good player in this game. Only survive something about 10s. Maybe the random of spawning object is too random :D For example I have few time situation where object ran in center for my head and left and right side and my character was stucked :c

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback!

You’re right, one of the next steps to make the game more enjoyable is definitely to control the spawning of the objects better. Right now is, as you said, too chaotic XD

This game looks and feels really nice. The movement feels good and looks funny. I survived 47 seconds on my first try before I got abducted. Good game!

Developer

Thank you very Much :D
