Great game! Even though I've seen the "use your body as a platform" concept done multiple times already (I did it too lol), this was one of the most solid executions of it! The textures are pretty good, the music was a nice choice, and the levels were well made. I liked how the corpses turned into stone, too. My only criticism would be that I wish more was done with the concept. Things do get pretty interesting with moving blocks, but that's on the last level. Still, I do appreciate how not every level was just building a bridge. Overall, it's a very nice and polished game, good work!!

Thank you! I would’ve definitely made more levels if I had more time. I had like 30 minutes to design the levels and I wish I had drawn them on paper earlier in the jam before slapping them all together at the end.

Really polished entry. Well done. The lights on all the statues was a nice addition. And sliding them into place was very satisfying. Could see it going some cool places too with things like pressure switches and obsticles that can destroy the statues.

Developer

Thanks! If I had more time, I would’ve totally implemented more mechanics. But thanks for the positive words! =D

Developer

Also, congrats on winning a Will you Snail key! It was very deserved!

Submitted

Thanks!

Super fun. Level 10 was a doozy!

Developer

Thank you! Glad you had fun! I’ve updated it so level 7 should actually be possible now =D

Submitted

I really like your game! I was stuck on the level where we had to make a tower, but after some try I manage to succeed :P

Great job! :)

Thanks! I’m glad the game can be challenging at some points! The game feels alot better thanks to the newest update which fixed the buggy collisions and made the game look a little better. (there was lots of gaps originally) I still think it can be improved but I’ve been bugfixing since the project was submitted and I want to leave the game alone now. (I’ll continue to make bugfixes if people spot any)

Submitted

Yes understandable ^^

You did well for your first game jam! You can be proud :P

Nice job! Love the art style, the music and the sound. Also big fan of the physics on the statues. There's still some bugs in there, like getting stuck or spike colliders not being accurate, but overall really nicely done! Also love the Will You Snail statues!

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, the collisions suck a lot in this game. I’m gonna try and spend some time today fixing them. I was gonna freeze the x movement on the statues so you can’t move them but I felt the full physics movement adds more interactivity.

Submitted

Really fun! My guy would sometimes get stuck on some invisible colliders, but nothing game breaking. Good job!

Developer

Thanks! I might spend some time updating the collisions today as they are very game-breaking.

Submitted

Awesome artwork and design. My archeologist gets stuck in the air at times but overall great game! I would appreciate your feedback as well :D

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Yeah, collisions are a bit buggy and I’m constantly bug fixing and upgrading the game! I’ll review your game now!

Submitted

Love the graphics! The music blew my head off! SO GOOD!!! I love the core mechanics too! The gameplay was rly smooth and it fits the theme fairly well! Keep up the great work!

WoW! Music is an absolute BANGER!
fun mechanic, but not idiotproof, softlocked myself few times, ALL HAIL RESET BUTTON!

Nice graphic, yet some tiles looks like loosly fitted, made me stutter few times ;)

Absolute WOWIE candidate of the year :D

Feel free to drop by and rate my game! <3

Developer

Thank you! The tiles definitely need some work (I tried to make them look better but I was really running out of time!) and same goes for the collisions. I will definitely check out your game and thanks for stopping by!

Submitted

haha, 8 minuted before deadline makes ppl make some hard choices :D
Had absolute blast anyway :D

Submitted

Cool concept!

I'd appreciate if you played my game! Send me yours too!

It does not really look like an even slight insight :3
