Solid, innovative mechanic. I wish that the aiming controls were a bit more free. I did like the different approach to the theme.

Submitted

When I first saw this game I knew it will be good, and I wasn't disappointed. This game was something else. Everything about it was fantastic. The art is great, the mechanic is really creative and intuitive, the music is really chill and fits the atmosphere. It's outstanding how polished this game is with very little time. If I saw this game outside of the jam I would have probably thought It was a full commercial game. The level design is really clever; not a single level felt unfair. The tutorial is probably the best I've seen, It's easy to understand, interactive, and probably what makes this game so good. 

I also loved how if the orb got somewhere impossible to reach it returns to you. A very clever thing to keep in mind so the play doesn't get stuck.

I also really loved the effects put in, the smoke particles coming out from switching directions, as well as the orb trail. Really adds to the wonderful art of this game.

I can definitely see this game turning into a full game in the future (If you plan on expanding it, please inform me!)

This game was really fun until the end, Awesome job!

Developer

Thanks for your valuable review!

Really nice and polished.
Probably my favourite art so far.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Art reviews are really important for me because im pretty much just starting in that regard and people already liking it big cheers man!

Submitted

Very polished with a great aesthetic and game mechanic. Good job!

Developer

Thanks man!

Submitted

Nice Game :D cool mechanic good concept to developpe one mechanic and us in the Jam ;-) thx for playing Blender man It was fun watching over your sholder while you did!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a bunch! Blenderman the blends nicely dude

Submitted

Very polished! I'm impressed! The visuals, the tutorial design are super clear and intuitive, and once the mechanic is introduced you good to go! Never seen such a mechanic in a platformer. Where you need to avoid spikes, but also get in touch with them once you set a checkpoint yourself (by throwing a checkpoint ball). For now, the levels are quite easy, but I'm sure that you could experiment and make crazy puzzles with it. Overall, a fun platformer with a twist ;)

Developer

Thanks man! 

Submitted

Wow, uhh, this game is great! One of the most creative uses of the theme so far, the art is great, and the sounds and music are nice, and i only have 2 complaints. 1, when you die with the orb, it would've been nice to go back to the last place you threw it instead of the start of the level, and 2, i just wish there was more. Alot of the games this jam go for a visual polish, this one is extremely polished gameplay wise, from the character movement, to the need to hold r to reset the orb so that there are no accidents, it's all just great and fun. Amazing game!

Developer

Yoo thanks for your feedback! I get what you're saying here but I think that dying with the orb is perfectly balanced since I wanted this to be a fail condition cause well with this jam theme its kinda hard to make one haha. Also yeah more content although for a jam its enough. Cheers!

Submitted

Alright, i can see that, the levels aren't huge and it only happened to me once, so it makes total sense why that was there.

Submitted

One of the best in the jam!

I think the game is better when you can only throw it when you are in the air, so I just played liked that.

I did got a bug and got stuck when falling down once. I just didn't respawn.

Visuals are amazing!

Well done!

Developer

Thanks a lot! Yeah you can play my game how you prefer I usually myself like to teleport mid-air just like you. Also Im aware of the bug hence the debug respawn by pressing L on the keyboard. 

Submitted(+1)

Actually the best game I have played now, visuals are awesome, mechanics are great nothing to complain here!

Developer

Thanks a lot!

Submitted(+2)

I really enjoyed this!

Submitted

This is really nicely polished, and the mechanic is a neat idea.

My one complaint would be that the levels didn't really develop the mechanic, so much as repeat the same thing, but to be honest, I don't see what you could have done without adding new mechanics.

Best submission I've played so far!

Developer

Thanks for your input! I actually didn't wanted to expand on the level design much because of the simplicity rating score that would decrease with more stuff in the levels but I totally get what you're saying here.

Submitted

hey hey hey! its me from the discord call! The game was AWSOME! the art was clean, the sound was crisp and the gameplay was fun. 


Id Also Really like it if u played my game :)

Developer

Thanks a lot! I obviously played your game already cause im a good gamer :))

Submitted(+1)

Thansk man your game ended up super good

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

This is AMAZING!! Gives me real nostalgia to cut the rope. This could definitely become a full length game!

I'd really appreciate it if you took time to play my game!

Great game and interesting idea. I would like to see the transition between screens smoother. And so it would be cool if you finalized this game after the jam and added more levels, enemies and preferences.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I might actually make another version after the jam that has way more levels and mechanics such as moving platforms, jumppads and a lot more i came up during the jam developement process

Submitted

I love this!

Submitted

Now, this is a realllly good game to start off! 

4 things tho: 

- The music does not loop.

- Sometimes when you died by the "void" you'd just not respawn and would have to lose all your progress and restart again. That felt cheap.

- The way you change screens on this level is confusing:


- Is this a win screen? I'm kind of confused.


Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot! Before the deadline I had a crash and a bunch of files corruped and some functionality got lost like the music loop. In the last level there is an indicator that you need to throw the ball onto the altar again to fix the game and win it but it so happens that the indicator has 1/4 chance of showing up after the corruption. There's also a debug respawn button if you encounter any softlocks - L

Submitted

This game is amazing. I have no idea how you made it in the time limit! I don't have any flaws to point out in it. Awesome use of the theme and nice job.

Developer

Thanks a lot! I'il be honest I had to stay put the entire last night resulting in a 19 hour game dev session haha

Submitted

That's wild. Also could you please check out my game?

Submitted

great game

Developer

Thanks
