Great character design. Love that you can pick your path through the game. 

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate it. Glad you liked it :)

I really liked this game a lot. The graphics are cartoony but very nice. The cutscenes and title screen were awesome. I really liked the upgrade system too, kind of metroidvania-ish in that regard. The music was fantastic and very fitting. I was encountering a fair amount of bugs, but that is to be expected with a game of this complexity. I am sure you will get them ironed out as you continue to work on it.  Great job!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. I really appreciate it. Glad you liked it. Unfortunately it looks like there might be a few bugs in the module I'm using. Joe said that a lot of weird stuff could happen in the metrovania module. I didn't have much time to bug test before ByteOff, but both graphics and gameplay will be polished in the near future. Also I will be seriously bug hunting ;)

Really cool concept and has potential. I've been trying to figure out how to get warps like that on one screen. The music is amazing as well. Great job! I have a son as well so I could relate :D

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. I "cheated" a little on the warps. I made four separate warp tiles for that room ;)

I am trying to wrap that around my brain lol

Oh wow you did a lot of updates. It plays very clean now! Wonderful job! I'm glad to be a part of the experience!

Developer

Glad to have you on the team. The game wouldn't be the same without the awesome music. And I'm very glad to see you got your game submitted as well.

Great cutscene images, font, music! I like the cartoony style of the world but there's still good depth to the character. Zemitex is a bad dude. I like the four time travel options. Love the cute miner animations. 

Developer

Thank you for the kind words. I must emphasize that the awesome music was made by Patricio Pereira.

Very fun. I like the fact that the different times have the same setup with changes that took place over time. I have not beaten it yet. I had the firepower and the shoes and hit a glitch and ended up in the blank screens. Will definitely be trying this one again.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad you liked it, and that you noticed the non-timeless landscape.

yeah I found that mainly the simple scroll scripts have an issue where it just deleteds a line of map data like a 16 by 16 strip, but other than that it’s pretty fun

needs a little more bug testing, i keep getting hit outa no where and some times the floor falls out beneth me and sent me to the shadow relm aka unused map data

Developer

Yes. I know. Thank you for the feedback. I'm wondering if some of the bugs are in the NESmaker module I'm using. If you read the manual there's a little line about this ;)
