Oh… Is the best game that I have played this game jam. I like all of it: The way that when you are outside of the flower the art atmosphere and the sounds get more intense, the design of levels, the sprites…I would like see a full version of this metroidvania in a future, please, do it!!
If you want to play my humble game too, I need some feedback ;)
This is a great game, and the atmosphere is spot on with the music and the camera that shifts only after moving to point X. That said, I really didn’t like having to hold the jump to go higher, and wall climbing honestly just frustrated me, I got really mad at that big wall haha
A nice platformer but I think the wall jump could be improved, maybe with some coyote time
One of my favorite submissions actually, I love the effects, the animations and mainly the idea. The sounds fit very well also and the difficulty gets very hard, maybe a bit too hard for me haha. Overall though a very very strong submission, job well done!
If you find the time to play our game too, I would appreciate it!
An overall strong entry! I really appreciate how you've used the static screen areas in an interesting way. Not being able to see ahead of you, and having to quickly scan the new screen area while running out of oxygen to hopefully find a new flower is a compelling way of using what was originally a limitation of the hardware.
While I quite enjoyed the game overall, there were two points that detracted a touch. As some other comments have mentioned, the wall-jumping feels a bit awkward and the platforming challenge near the end with the floating blocks ended up being frustrating. And secondly, the SFX that plays when one of your bullets hits a wall is way too loud and feels very grating.
Despite those two points, this was definitely a good jam game, great work!
crazy fun game with great use of the flowers and tense gameplay. Jumpman anyone? so cool. Great design although a couple of blind spots which is fine because you can get back ez unless you do what I did and run into another flower further back. SFX is great and impactful too. I am biased to platformer but is going to be hard to beat for me in the fun department.
The skill barrier for mastering those wall jumps is pretty high, but wow is the game atmospheric. Ir reminds me of Metroid Prime 2 Echoes when your in the world. Very tense game which is a nice change from many of the cozy ones on this jam. Very good work!
I really enjoyed this one! The level design is awesome, and the sound design fits perfectly. The core mechanic and the rush of having to reach a flower before time runs out are really well implemented.
I could definitely see this as one of the strong contenders for the win. One thing I think would suit the game well is a hard mode where you don’t respawn and have to restart from the beginning. I’m not a hardcore player myself, but I could see that being very appealing for speedrunners or even streamers.
Love the game, but I was having troubles on those wall jumps ;((( #skillissue
Really cool game. The theme is great, the art is well done, and the sound effects are very satisfying. I liked the variety in flower effects, and the fight sequences were fun. My only complaint is the wall jumps. 2-3 frames of coyote time off the wall may shore it up. Well done!
I absolutely love this game and its art style, but platforming is my big problem in all games(((
I loved this game. a wonderful intepretation. but the controls are a bit jarring. especially the wall jump was annoyingly difficult. but I managed to safe the planet! well done.
I loved the concept and I thought the gameplay during the action sequences was really fun. Those races for the breathable bubble added a nice tension to the gameplay, too. That said, the wall jumping/climbing mechanics felt like they could use a little more love, but it was a really great experience otherwise.
Great concept, great execution! Very inspired music design flipping between the calming "breathable" track and the literally heart pounding outside track. The wall jump controls were a bit awkward, and the visuals weren't anything special, but those are my only notes! Well done!
