Good lucking game! I liked the S key effect and how to need to manage to find your way! The graphics are adorable and the music and sound feedback is very good. I enjoyed it very much! Congratulations! If you have a time and can check mine I will be very grateful :)

The mechanics were good, and controls were nice too, my only complain is that the, somtimes, its a bit confusing to know which plataform we can jump on to.
Great job you did there
PS: if you have any time check on my game.

Code COMP1L3RHi, thank you for your feedback :)
Can you explain which platforms you especially had trouble recognizing? Was it always a problem or only when the glitches started taking over? (in the latter case it may be part of the design, as an added challenge to figure out what's what but I totally understand if that can be frustrating sometimes ^^)
The sound design was amazing! I loved how the music and theme matched :) The level design was nice as well although it gave me a hard time to pass some of the stages and I had to try it multiple times haha! I have to be honest, it took me a while to get used to the mechanics but once I got a hang of it, i was sailing off!
Nice work and well done!

VyrusExcellent game.
I loved it ! Good art design, good SFX, the mechanic with the buggy platform was on point and so good. Well done.

The Devil's GlitchVery very well made game!! The mechanics worked well and felt really smooth! I loved running and launching myself backwards to do platforming which was honestly really sick! I really enjoyed it!!

Sombrero_Glitch 3.0metroidvania, hell yeah. You get rated high just because of that alone. And everything else just makes it a 5/5 for me

Glitch Climb (jam version)Good job, love that sprites changes then you die. The only problem with it is, it can be hard to see what is a platform, and what isn't.
A good use of the mechanics, with the spawned platform and the boost.
I have some small thing to think abour next time:
I spawned to close to a intant dead, what i died many time then I spawned in.
The boost power feels random at times, especially in the air.
Then you save the player life, mabye make a min life they get back. I stoppede in the Add block area, because I only had one life, with maked a hard area harder.
But its a really good

Snake virusThank you for playing our game and for your detailed feedback! It's sometimes intentionally obscured what some platforms are by the glitch sprite swapping system to add an additional challenge of perception and world memorization into the mix. I understand if that sort of design can be a turn-off for some people though :)
The boost power is a bit odd and there's a hidden mechanic we didn't explain very well: its knockback is stronger the faster you are. This can be used for some pretty sick maneuvers but can also screw you over, especially if you're not aware of that rule. We should definitely explain that more clearly and give the player some way to cancel extreme knockbacks.
The adblock section requires some pretty tough skill jumps at the end. More health won't save you here as the hazards at the bottom of the jumps are all instakill. Maybe we should have made that section easier for the purpose of the jam though haha
Thank you again for your valuable insights!
I liked to play more but I'm not that great with platformers and keyboard controls :( My gamepad didn't have an input for glitching so I couldn't get pass the tutorial area. Cool app regardless. ^ ^

KROM Astral GuruAlmost complete game. Really nice rework of double jump mechanic. Great job!
Small things to improve:
- some sound effects are too loud
- weird camera movements on death

Dream JamGamewow, I think that this is the funniest game that I've played. If it's not, it's one of them.
What a fun thing you created with just a simple platform error and a backwards dash. I loved it, and played til the end... I thing... I got a lot of error and them a black screen ahahahah
Congratulations, great game!

Bugoss FightThis seems very polished and rewarding. The gameplay was good, however, I was initially able to find a bugged-out door. Other than that, pretty responsive and fun and it looks amazing, definitely a great game. Keep up the good work!

Glitch In - Wowie Jam 2A very great game great art style great mechanic , and platforming feel nice
Submitted
Dead Monster In SpaceGreat art style, some parts of the games lack testing because i've had issues where enemy wont trigger even tho i'm just a pixel away from him making it impossible for me to pass there without losing 1 hp.

Bugs&FeaturesHey, thanks for sharing. We actually set up a few enemies this way intentionally to showcase what the glitch pulse ability can do. Once you get to that point you should have passed a terminal that gave you the ability to use the j or v key to use glitch pulse. That will let you pass without losing health.
Really polished (if you can say so with this style :D ) and extensive game! I spent some time with it and for the most part it was challenging but not frustratingly hard - until I reached the ADblock section. I couldn't get past that whatsoever :/
I really liked the mechanics, especially the error platform and the basic enemy. Also sound and visuals, even if quite crazy and all over the place, made for a unique aesthetic. I also really enjoyed the little details you added.
One issue is that I sometimes found it difficult to distinguish platforms from other random level glitch elements. And I wasn't a huge fan of the glitch boost - it killed me much more often than actually helping me out :P
Great job overall!

Living RoomGreat game! I like the little things you added. Like sometimes the spring turning into "spring not found" and stuff like that. And the platforming got surprisingly hard after a while. :D Sometimes It was hard to know what was background and where you could land, so you could the bg little darker or something like that. Other that that, great game and great music, and I would appreciate if you could play my game too :) Oh.. and is the game over when you get lot's of errors on the screen?
