Judge feedback

  • I tried it on the controller and the LB/RB control was a little awkward, and I wasn’t a fan of the angular tilt on the jump and falling back. It felt really odd physics-wise to float backwards when I couldn’t go forward, and usually led to my demise. Personally, I like a more straight-forward run control.
  • The art is wonderful and I really enjoyed the story and the easter eggs on the laptop. Thanks for participating, hope you had fun 😊
  • I never thought I'd genuinely care about the livelihood of a GPU but there you have it. Cute game.
