Hi! I enjoyed this game!

First of all, graphics are on point and it looks gorgeous. I like that you use low poly models and combine it with complex shadows and beautiful illumination. I also like GIBSON's face, it reminds me to a meme.

The theme is very well chosen as it is very related to the Just Get Started theme. The music is fitting, the minigames are interesting and different enough to have fun at the gym


It's unfortunate that the dodging red minigame was broken this build, would've added so nice variety :(

I also like that you offer two different endings depending on your skill !

I personally found however that the XP needed to level up was a bit grindy, maybe too much for me, but hey, there's a lot of people out there that love grindy games :)

Really great submission overall! rating it high :)

Thanks alot for the detailed feedback! :D

Im glad you enjoyed most of it

About the xp stuff. I was torn between 2 things, I also wanted the games to be quick, easy and grindable. I also wanted them to pose as challenging and hard. And the way I realised too late that what I made wasnt good at either 😅

I knew that grinding these wouldnt be the most fun so I tried to nerf them alot and make them grindy. I also realised that the xp reward was WAY TOO LOW (It was like 0.25 for lvl1, 0.5 for lvl2 and 1 for lvl 3).  I bumped them to like double which definitely made it a bit better but it still wasnt completely balanced at all. With the old one, if you JUST did lvl 3, it would still require you to do the same game 20 times over..

For that I did plan to add a twist or change for each exercise in lvl 3 but that would require more time, so had to drop that. Overall, the whole minigame and stat reward system was a complete mess xD

Even to reach the easy ending, you need to just spam rest 28 times xD 

Really appreciate the kind words :)
