The visuals of the game look nice.

There are quite a few functional problems that is stopping the player to progress.

Some observed issues:

  • Only the first crystal can be collected, the blue and red crystal are not interactable
  • The wall right of the red crystal has no collision an you can fall through it
  • The lights have little to no effect on the player
  • "Grab wall: L-SHIFT, when on wall" this is not working

Hi, thanks as always, the feedback helps, like really, it helps, anyways, the project is kind of on hold at the moment, I as the lead-ish programmer am not very well invested in the game at the moment, I'm not sure if any of the other developers are either, so fixes are going to be few, and sparse.

Graphics and Game feel is very nice! 

I would like to say that you really did a well job with the submission, congrats.

Few things to mention would be that, when you create a video game for a game jam you would most likely want to finish a prototype first before polishing it :)

This is a common mistake and I'm not saying this to be mean, you are all learning! 

But when you do it as a team or solo, you should always make sure that everyone focuses on the MVP (Minimum Viable Product) which is to create a working project that has the most basics of your idea. After that you can add a little polishment and improve graphics or audio.

There was few bugs that won't allow me to move forward in game, but overall I really liked how much process you made, this game shows that you really worked hard on it and I hope you work on it more after the jam!

Thanks for participating, I hope you all had fun!
