Good old school vibes here! Good looking art and and vibing music. I’ve enjoyed it!
And here are my few cents:
-
As this is a downloadable game for a jam, you have to put the information about controls into the game. I downloaded the game right from this submission page where there is no information about the controls, launched the game and found my self in a situation where I’m basically don’t know what to do. So I had to get back to the browser, open the game page, check the controls and get back. It takes time and effort, and it may lead to churn of potential players.
-
It’s not clear why do I have to stay on the green gem for 3 seconds. Maybe I was not able to progress enough, but all of them were located in an absolutely safe areas, where the player can’t get a hit from the enemies. This drops the pacing of the game.
-
As this is a downloadable game, there should be at least some way to close the game without actually closing the application in a task manager or from the task bar by opening it’s context menu. Some people may just don’t know how to kill the app and may be highly frustrated.
