thanks for your calm little game :) like the minimalisim a lot. you could probably improve the colliders (cuz edge jumps are frickely sometimes) and add more 'bounce' to it. 

Developer

Thanks for your feedback. Good idea.

Very nice idea and execution! The movement speed could be a little faster for my taste. :) I like the idea of slowly reconnecting your brain to regain lost memories and how you implemented the Metroidvania aspects into this. Great job!

Developer

Thank you for your comment, we are pleased to read this! :)

Dope game, very peaceful and balanced. On my laptop i wasn't able to come further than the flashing brain in the beginning, on pc it works fine. 

For the menu i'd suggest to also add a tooltip with "press e to close". My brain was too broken, had a hard time remembering.

Thanks for playing! We're sorry it didn't work on your laptop. We need to optimize it further. :)

Haha, that's a good tip thank you. xD

About that: is it some kind of loading screen? If o some progress/waiting indicators would be great. I was tyring to play with the "brain"...

Developer

Yes, it's a little story sequence (the introduction with the texts that one has lost one's memory) while it's loading in the background. A progess indicator is a good idea thank you!

Developer

Thank you! :P

I like the take of the theme. Its nice to have it centered around memories and to mend them. The art style is simple but effective. Well done! :)

Developer

Thank you! :)

The movement could be a bit quicker for my taste but I relly liked the vibe 🌟

Developer

Thank you for playing and your comment! :)

It seems like a very well designed game that holds some mysteries and most likely plays as a metroidvania but we were put off by how slow it playes. Also that there are no checkpoints really punishes you later in the map, bringing you back to the beginning.

I hope you will be able to fix it and improve the UX to make it more appealing to play - since presentation already got us hooked. Great job and nice submission.

You're right, there is a desperate need for different checkpoints to respawn. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time for that. :(

Thank you very much for your feedback. We'll implement it after the jam. :)

Nice graphics and sound,I enjoyed playing it. Would be nice to make mc faster, but it is my prefferences. Nice job!

Developer

Thank you! :)

Really cozy. A bit faster movement would be nice.

Developer

Thanks for playing. Yes, you're right about the speed.

Submitted(+1)

Really nice atmosphere. The movement felt a bit too slow, which made some parts a bit uneventful since there wasn’t much happening besides walking. I really liked the dynamic lighting, the sounds, and the art style. The text/UI didn’t quite fit in my opinion, but overall, it’s a good game!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing! You're right, the character could be a little faster and the empty spaces could be shorter or even filled in. Thanks for your thoughts on the game

Love the calming atmosphere. While the intro seems a bit long, it was still very interesting though and fits the story. Perhaps a skip button would be nice, for those speedy guys. 
The simple volumes go together very well with neon-like wall edges and the gloomy character, who gives me some Ori vibes.
The movement does feel a little slow after a while, though the idea of holding on to edges is very satisfying to me.
Great job overall :)

Thank you for your thoughts and for playing! The skip button is a great idea.
