Sombrero Talks a lot ^^ aaaaahh skip button needed! but nice little game :-)

Developer

Thank you! And yeah, forgot to add a skip lol

Submitted

Woaw! That is such a cool mechanic! I love it and the story is funny too! Great mechanic choice for the theme! Well done!

Submitted

Good game, but the cutscene was too long...

Submitted(+1)

Nice game ! I Loved the "destroy gameobject" projectiles of the boss ! A lot of game dev jokes ! There is a clear potential for a cool plateformer / puzzle game with the boucing balls and the momentum jump. Btw powned the boss 1st try by standing in place ahah.

How I would improve upon this though : more juicy feebacks for every action/event of the game (visually and with sounds), more plateform and puzzle levels of course, maybe some hard to get collectibles (like in Celeste, SMB..) exploiting the jump to momentum jump to double momentum jump (shoot while mid air after momentum jump to make a second one, did it some times :p) and finally i'll add some enemies to shoot or to rush on with momentum jump and hidden rooms by clipping through random walls.

Developer

Lol yeah I do too, I decided to leave it because it used to be almost impossible, and true!! I didn’t think of collectibles, that would be a really fun thing!! Thank you for playing and for the very good feedback!!!

Great game!

There was some unintentional bugs, and I got soft locked in the end, but other than that this is a good game!

Keep up the great work!

Developer

Thank you!! And yeah soft locking is a bit prevalent in my game which I intend to fix in the full release, thanks for the feed back I’m glad you enjoyed!’

Submitted

I love the game. it was fun playing it. but player becomes invisible all on sudden in the final level in btw glitches.  overall other than this bug I had good time playing this. sound was awesome. please check my game too

Submitted(+1)

The bug definitely feels like a bug in a good way, topic was clearly met, well done! Pretty fun, of course you're aware of the other unintentional bugs that mess with things, as per your description. But also... it doesn't seem to cost anything to gain momentum so, it's not all that challenging. Sombrero cutscene was a bit too long, not a good idea to remove control from the player, especially for a game jam where people are rating tons of games. But I would love to see this game get more polish and I hope you work on it after the jam!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback! And I’m glad the bug feels like an actual bug and not just a feature, I definitely want to improve on this game heavily after the jam :D! And yeah, I want to make cutscenes skippable / based off the players input (read at their own pace), thank you for playing I really appreciate it!!

Submitted(+1)

Hard game, but fun mechanic. I agree with Skyan about making the momentum and jumping the same key but it was still pretty fun. Nice music too!

Developer

Thank you!!! I really appreciate!! And yeah, might make an option for it!

Submitted(+1)

Amazing game with amazing sound & interesting story, Can I get the soundtrack xD

Jokes aside there were a few concerns that ruined the game for me

- On parts of the game maybe you could consider adding a max momentum height

- Also please make momentum and jumping the same key, the first time you press the space bar you use your momentum then the second time, its normal jump. That is a lot better than having two keys that I'm very confused by. XD If you do that it would feel like a more natural jump

- Fix that player walk cycle, its off a bit on the y axis. Use Unity animating to make it smoother

Still with all the setbacks your game is pretty great. You also made the player feel good when they figured out something on their own.

Developer

Thank you for the feed back!! I’ll definitely take all this into consideration when working on the full release, again sorry it was super difficult!! I’m glad you had fun though :D

Submitted

As a possible counter point, I'd say don't change the controls of the momentum because then you have more control, for instance if you -want- to make a normal jump, you still can even though you have momentum. Although, it may be more intuitive as Skyan says. Just for additional consideration!

Submitted(+1)

Why not just have an options menu in the game. There there can be an option for either [Momentum & Jump same key] or [Momentum & jump different key]

Submitted(+2)

Perfect! Yeah that'd do it haha.

Developer

I’ll definitely add an option to choose between! And hopefully make the key bindable too!

Submitted(+1)

Pretty interesting and fun mechanic! Music was pretty nice (although i don't think the boss music was a good fit) With some more polished gameplay and graphics this game could be a really good one

Developer

It does take a bit long for the boss music to kick in, I myself have beat the boss while the music is still at the start phase, and thank you!! I do wanna expand this game heavily with more levels and bosses :D! I’m glad you enjoyed!!

Submitted(+1)

that's really a good game, with excellent game design and level design. The only point i would say is that the final boss doesn't give any visual feedback, and you are unsure of what you are supposed to do. Other than that, amazing job (: Keep it up

Developer

Thank you!! And I’ll definitely work on that, + it is difficult to see when you actually hit the boss, I tried making his patterns most obvious to not make it too unfair lol, I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

Can't wait to see what you do with it! Warn me when you update it!

5/5 -IGN i like the graphics nice mechanics it’s pretty funny

Developer(+1)

oh heck yes IGN rating lets go loll

What a nice music. The difficulty is pretty hard though. I reached a place with 2-3 screens without a checkpoint. Interesting puzzle game

Developer(+1)

Death resets the scene, and the checkpoints move with the camera 🤔 I’ll definitely check that problem out, and thank you!! And thank you for playing my game :D!!

haha. Fun game. Hope to see more :).

Great fun game and concept! Love the use of bugs. The simplistic artwork is really nice, but agree that with a little bit of tweaking this could be developed into a full game. Good work! :)

Developer

Thank you! I do wanna actually develop this into a bigger game with more levels and bosses :D, which I will start on after the jam! (well imma start now but post after the jam)

Submitted

Good to hear :) good luck with the development!

This game is right on the theme.

Submitted(+1)

I am glad you gays added the arrow pointing up because now i could actually finish the game.

Great game and a great concept.

Developer

Thank you!!! And yeah figured that’s where many people got stuck so we got to fixing that right away!!

Submitted(+1)

I like how the bullets always came back to you to give you momentum. Normally I wouldn't enjoy that kind of game as much but for this theme its perfect


If you kindly play my game as well :)

Developer

I will and thanks!! It’s the first thing I thought of when the theme came :D
