Cool game! Couldn't seem to get past level 2 though )`: Can't seem to get enough height...

Developer

You can try number around 13 for the height :)

Oh! Okay thanks!

A really nice idea, shame there are only 2 levels. Overall it's quite frustrating, but this could easily be solved with some simple quality of life improvements like displaying the default variables for each action and keeping the previously used actions in place when a level is restarted.

Developer

These are very useful comments for game's improvement. Actually it had 5 levels, but because of some problem at the end we didn't have enough time to test it, but I already refined the game and is planning on publishing it after the game jam, we will be gathering feedbacks with players. If you are interested in the DEMO you can follow us and check it out! We would be very happy to show our product!! Thankyou for your certainty of the game and we hope you can enjoy the Game Jam!

Developer

We published the revised version for this game! can you play it out and provide some feed backs! Thanks a lot!

Developer

Bro, I'm literally thinking the same thing you are!

The game is not intuitive about how to move forward after level 1. The gravity is too strong.

I liked the graphics and sound. Cool concept.

Developer

Thank you for your comment,  we will continue to improve the gameplay, especially physical and action mechanisms. The sound effects and art are almost done in one go, and they are really excellent.T hank you!

Developer

Thankyou for your comments, our team will keep working on the game after the game jam ends. We will improve the game with the comments that you guys gave! If you are interested you can follow GeardUP GAME STUDIO for the upcoming game XD!

Really neat and creative idea, however it gets really hard super quick. And i dont know if it's bugged but i got to the end of level two, and made the character sit still on the flag but it still restarted the same level :/

So the idea is good, and audio + art works good together. If only you had more time to polish the gameplay i think it could have been really fun

Developer

Thankyou for the reply and telling us that and we are happy for people to play our game, it does have some problem with level 2's level transitioning and I just polished it a bit and it already seems absolutely great! It was originally 7 levels and requires "a bit technique" for the player to finish the game, so we decided to upload it again after the game jam and by that time it will be way better and enjoyable! Goodluck and have fun! If you want to play updated game you can follow us and see the result!

Developer

Thank you for trying out the game. The problem may be that the level reset command that departs after going beyond the right screen overrides the command to go to the next level. We'll optimize this.

The graphics are really smooth and nice. For the gameplay, the basic idea is really great, it's just hard to understand how to use it especially on level 2. I made it to the flag but the robot died after because he goes too far on the right of the screen. 

One improvement that i can see is to keep the loop that i the user made between try, because i want to tweak value but i have to rebuild the whole loop at every try. Another thing is maybe to don't have to type value for speed or force but have a slider instead. 

I'm sure that with some small fix this game can be really good ! The basic gameplay idea is really creative and can be really fun. 

Developer

Yes you are very correct, level 2 had some problem with level transitioning which we didn't have time at the end to fix it.. Your comments are precious for us to improve the game later on! A slider? Yeah for sure! That may be beginner friendlier! We will soon publish a DEMO for this game and will need lots of advice! Thankyou very much! By the way, I love how your game's music and art creates a chilling mood~

This is amazing, smooth music and good drawing! Just a bit unbeginner friendlyXD. I'm kind of stuck on level 2, has anybody got through yet?

Developer (1 edit)

Run 1/1, jump 1/13, dash 0.5/ 30. But there are some problems in this version that cannot enter the third level, and we plan to upload the new version after the voting is over. Thank you for your playing.

Good Game, the music gives Minecraft vibes, but if you only put two jumps into the loop, it softlocks the game.

Developer

Thankyou for your comment. You can Press Esc to restart the level if you run into a soft-lock, we are glad to have people to play and reply to our game so we know what to improve! If you found any more problems in the game please tell us!
