The art style is really beautiful, unfortunate I experience several bugs with my character frozen in mid animation and the flying all over the level.

It will be great if you could fix it.

Congrats

Developer

Thanks for your comment. I already have a patch waiting to go live after the jam results where the controls and bugs have been fixed. :)

This is really fantastic, but unfortunately unfinished! I wish some of the mechanics was replaced with the rest of the game! I would love to see more story and maybe even voice acting. The animations are top notch. Great work!

Developer(+1)

Voice acting was going to be added but sadly I ran out of time.  I also had more plans for level design however multiple bugs sucked away time from the level design. Y'know how it is :) thanks for the feedback :)

First of all, this is absolutely beautiful. Wow! It's like a picture book come to life. And the same goes for the animations, which are smooth and expressive, for the player and the enemies. Also, the control scheme is quite comprehensive, what with the attack, double-jump, and dash--all you need for a complete platformer.

Unfortunately, the controls would frequently glitch out on me. The main character would get stuck in what I believe was her "falling" pose, and I couldn't move her out of it. I'm playing with keyboard and mouse, btw.

Ah thank you I feek humbled by your kind words. I had a lot of fun with the animations and the art style.

Sadly I experienced the animations bugs/glitches through the development and It took me 2 days after submitting the game to fix these issues.  A patch will be uploaded after the results with all the issues fixed :)

Beautiful art. Too bad the controls get stuck so often, I would have liked to play more of the game.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much. The controls sadly will be the thing that held back this game, However I have fixed the issues and a patch will be going live after jam results. Also good news if you liked the game I will be turning this into a full game going forward from today :)

I couldn't finish the game because I couldn't use X and B for some reason, my inputs just didn't register! But I agree with the rest. Great animations and art. :) What is there looks clean. GJ!

Developer

May I ask what controller you were using? Did you use keyboard in the end?

Submitted

Yes

The game looks really gorgeous, I think you did a great job with the aesthetics of the game. The graphics and animations look very polished and clean, the music gave a fitting atmosphere, and the sounds were nice touches too. With that said, I did the gameplay a little lacking. The dash gave me a little motion sickness with how it instantly teleported, but I realize you did forewarn of these issues. With some work on the gameplay for the future, I'd be really interested to see where this project goes. Good luck!

Great looking game, particularly the animations!

The art is phenomenal, the music is soothing, probably my favorite game so far from this jam, keep it up 

Developer

Aw thank you, I was aiming for someone more atmospehric so I am pleased to hear that was your experience.  :)

Submitted

Great game, love the art but the game froze in the second level after beating the second monster :(

Developer

Sorry about that freezing. I have fixed in a patch going live after the results :) Thanks for playing

Hey there, I was doing games on stream and recorded my playthrough and opinion as feed back. Here you go! Fantastic Art

Developer(+1)

Hi llPrinny thank you so much for taking the time to play my game on stream, I have since subscribed to your YT channel and have enjoyed watching you participate in playing mini jam games. I find your mindset very refreshing and interesting as you breakdown what you see when playing games. I loved and watched your video twice ( yes, twice ) Thank you so much for taking the time to play my game and I took a lot of notes from your video and will be considering each one whilst continuing the development of the little witch. :) 

Submitted

thank you very much for those kind words haha. It's really amazing to hear. Awesome work on the entry!

For a one man project, this was done very well! The game felt smooth for the most part, barring the forewarned issues. My only real gripe is the limitation felt more like a hurdle than something that was integrated into the idea. But in the end, I approve!

Developer

Thank you so much for your kind response. You say the limitation ( 5 colours) felt more like a hurdle than something that was intergrated into the idea. I think it's a fair comment  but I would like to further explain that my goal from the beginning was the bring life (colour) back to the world as you progressed through the game.

Sadly you can only experience one instance of this for my minijam. The limitation in my opinion did not hold me back only the time of the jam duration.. if anything like always I over scoped :D (but really.. that's just how I like approaching my jams) 

Thank you for playing my game :)
