Really enjoyed this! The atmosphere and art is really nice and immersive. You two did a really great job!
Thank you so much! We really appreciate it! :D
Story was good! Seeing the effects of your actions, especially at the end, felt incredibly satisfying.
Art looked great and helped contribute to a sense of loneliness and then to a feeling of restoring beauty.
I do feel the first platforming trial got a little too unforgiving since you had to traverse a long series of falling platforms using a jump without air control. Eventually, I got used to it and was able to overcome it.
For the second trial, it helped that you automatically collected the first crystal right at the gate so you knew what you needed to do. I do think the gate could have been drawn in a way that it was more obvious there were empty slots. In other games with big doors, the slots would be all in or around the middle. I also think a little more challenge with double jumping would have been appreciated there.
Overall, good stuff!
Thank you so much for the feedback!
This is my first time being a developer for a game jam so I genuinely really appreciate your constructive criticism, thank you so much! I'm glad that you enjoyed it! :)
I loved the retro style of this game, real Atari / Commodore vibes. The platforms were tricky so I was glad of the checkpoints!
The forest creature animals in pixel art were adorable
A cute fun little game, I’d love to see what happens next
A lovely chill game about restoring life to the land. Beautiful sprite art on display throughout with a satisfying conclusion (You keep going little guy!).
I really loved the atmosphere!
The visuals and sound design blend perfectly to deliver an unforgettable experience
If you have some time, I’d be very happy if you could try my game and share your thoughts — it’s the first game I’ve ever developed
Your feedback would mean a lot to me as a beginner developer
Hi, thanks so much for playing, what was your favourite part? I’d love any opinions you have on the gameplay/ difficulty! This is the first game I’ve been the developer for in a jam gam so I’d love to know what you thought!
And of course I’ll check out your game too! I’ll give it a rating if you rate ours!🙏🏼⭐️
The gameplay was great, and the background and sounds added a really special atmosphere. I really enjoyed the experience!
