Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.

  • Valve caliber environmental design, innovative gameplay mechanic aligned with jam theme, and potential to be expanded into a full game with more levels. Only drawback was the lack of audio (unless it was just glitched for me).
  • This was extremely creative! Way to use the theme to create the gameplay and experience. Bravo!

I really enjoy playing this game ! The mechanic it perfect with the theme ! Good Job !

Jumping and placing error popups under my feet to get higher was a blast! Really fun game, nice job! I would like to play more :)

It's got some good looks despite using simple assets so good job with that. Overall feels decently polished outside of no sounds. Imo though, I wanted more from the concepts. It was funny at first to realize the popup has collision and think okay I can use that. But realistically this is a very simple mechanic just like placing a block in minecraft or something.
So I was disappointed to see that it was never really needed to be used as anything but a physical barrier. I was hoping the ability to close the popup might come in to play at some point, that kind of thing. And even more disappointed when I beat it in a couple minutes without introducing any other mechanics.

Overall I think there some solid stuff here but I want more from you guys in the future 🤔

Great implementation of the theme, it's a fun and original idea to use error messages as building blocks!

This was a ton of fun. I was sweating during the last level with all the turrets blasting me. I really like this mechanic and the way it was executed. Some really tight platforming for first person 3D game. As others have pointed out, some music and sound would've really helped with the immersion and pulling the player into the world. Nicely done overall for just 72 hours!


Developer

Eyy happy you enjoyed! Yeah you've hit the nail on the head with the sound design, next time!

Very fun game that gave portal vibes

Idk why but the Little popup animations made me love it so much, really good juice for it, and also good implementation of the theme

Developer

Aw nice, glad we decided to add it within the time then! Thanks!

Really good integration of the theme!!! And the fact that it is a mechanic with multiple dimensions to it is just the cherry on top. Smart!

Developer

Thanks! really happy people could see the vision!

Great FPS puzzle game!

Really fun! love the level 3

great game, some sounds would be nice, and i might just be bad but the turrets levels were really difficult

Developer

Thanks! Yeah the last bits were pretty difficult, if we were to do it again we'd definitely ramp up slower to that!

Simple with good graphics, sadly no sounds.

Simple but genious idea. Great execution, with portal vibes. Game can greatly benefit from some sfx. Also maybe additional chechpoint on level 2 :)

Very clean, lovely puzzle game. I was afraid when I started to see platforms (I hate platformer games), but this pleasantly surprised me. Would be a much cooler experience with sound effects :D

Developer

Aw nice, happy to hear that! Yeah sound effects would really give it that extra boost!

Loved the level design!

It's a bit like portal if you just had the ability to make pop-ups. The last few rooms were devious with the amount of turrets you have to deal with. Just needs the placement mechanic cleaning up a bit, sound being added, and it'd be perfect.

Developer

Thanks! Portal was a big inspiration, and yeah late in the jam we noticed some struggles with the placement, still, glad you enjoyed it!

Amazing idea, the error message having so many functions is a great implementation of the theme. Only thing I struggled with was that the message wont appear when looking directly down.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah the placement mechanic was a challenge, good to know for in the future!

Had some fun. Clever.
