Nice art and music design. But the platforming wasn't very pleasant.
the music is great. and so is the art! Its got a pretty solid idea. great job.
Wow, this was trippy. I love the artstyle, it's seriously really good. However, the execution.. Not the best. You can't really aim with your cans, there could have possibly been more checkpoints, and the camera was... Really bad. It often got stuck above me and I couldn't even see where I was jumping.
Overall it was a pretty good attempt. Sound design was amazing. The jump sfx and the can tossing fit perfectly with your choice of music. The music also somewhat (though admittedly stereo-typically) fits with your narrative. The art style very definitely lends itself to you overall them and artistically in visual and audio this matches very well. The out of reach and redo themes were there but only very minimally.
Mechanically it needs some tweaking. Disappearing platforms should give some kind of warning before they just fall off the earth. Also I don't know if it was a clipping issue but despite dozen attempts, I just couldn't "ride" Debbie. If I tried to land on her she would move on without me but if I tried to run with her the timing became difficult because I was clipping on her head.
Still, overall I enjoyed what I could play of it.
thank you for the feedback! The debby part you don't so much ride on her as much as you walk on top of her and try to keep up, I could have made that more clear and expanded the collision a little more, but I'm glad you enjoyed the rest!
The game runs pretty good, the art is great, I love the concept and the music, but I feel is laking a little bit in the gameplay, I think you should put another way to kill enemies apart from shooting like jumping on them or kicking them, and also the rat sometimes doesn´t kill you when you collide with it, only if you jump on it, but pretty good :D
Thanks for the feedback! It was actually my first time making a platformer like this so getting the core functionality down unfortunately took a little longer than I would of hoped but thank you for the compliments!
I really like the character design!
soundtrack is so epic!
