Made it to the giant creepy smiley face at the end. Pretty cool obstacle avoiding games. 

Developer

Thanks you very much!

I like the animation that plays after defeating one of the levels lol. I did find the game to be a bit too easy, but overall I like the storytelling and think you did a good job translating it into the gameplay. Good work!

Developer

Thanks you very much! :)

Feels like I'm playing an easier version of "The world's hardest game", overall the game was fun but the levels too easy, at least for me. Unpolished in some areas, when the text grows it changes size and indentation, also feels like there is too much text.

Developer (1 edit)

In the full version there I will do more polished level, and a better handling of texts

nice game man

Developer

Thanks you! :)

Great game with Undertale bullet-hell gameplay! I wished the game make the player care even more about each person before they killed them, though.

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

I will work on that !

Submitted(+1)

All humans being pulled away from earth into some hellish battle royale is an amazing start to a game and immediately hooks the player. The gameplay was puzzle based and fun enough to hold my interest. But I wish there was more info on how everyone got to this place where they were forced to fight or die. Some more world building could greatly expand upon the narrative.

Developer(+1)

Yess I will explore these in a full version !


When you finish playing you can go to the Main Many en tap Replay. Si you can replay previous game an choose suicide, some of them give you more clues about what is going on.

Really good sound design, Gameplay is a little too similar to undertale but the concept is very unique and interesting nevertheless

Developer(+1)

Fun Fact : Undertale was my main expiration despite I had never played it.

But I'm going to do it soon. I'm currently hyped up to play your game, I saw it on the feed before but then lost it. Going to sleep tomorrow and I will try !

Interesting, very dark. I enjoyed this and it has an interesting concept/story, but I visuals & UI could use some touchup I think it should be more consistent with pixels and 3D lighting but that is nitpicky, aside from the UI on the side being not so obvious. Interesting combing the "Impossible Game" gameplay with Undertale -esque inspired visuals makes for a unique experience. 

Developer

Thanks you very much ! Taking notes for a full version !

Submitted(+1)

Visuals are great! and its a cool idea i just wish the matches got harder or the collectables moved to different spots for  more variety. otherwise great game!

Developer(+1)

I had this ides but not enough time. I started doing the levels day-1 before the end of the jam. But for a full version I will rework them all

Submitted(+1)

Well-written. Graphics are simple but consistent. The music is not bad, but it does get repetitive.

My main gripe was with the identical segments. Every duel, no matter the opponent, was exactly the same. There could have been even small variations to mix things up a little bit.

Developer(+1)

Wait, the same level was loaded ? Did you play on Firefox ?


Or it's different levels but because of the lack of more mechanics it was very repetitive.

Submitted

I played the game in Edge. I got different dialogues in between the battles, but the battles were all the same.

Developer(+1)

So Edge Also ! 


If you wanna try others battle you can download the game

Developer(+1)

Fixed !

Unfortunately, the game isn't loading in the page. Can you double-check to make sure "This file will be played in the browser" is checked?

Developer(+1)

Itch.io is currently lagging, i'm playing some games right now and i have some similar problem with some.
Try to relaunch

Submitted

I was finally able to play it as intended. Much better! Some of those levels were pretty challenging.

Developer(+1)

thanks you very much ! :)

Submitted(+1)

The visuals of the game look really cute, but the story is surprisingly dark—which is great! I just wish the game were a bit more challenging. Maybe you could add more obstacles or increase their speed.

Developer

Thanks you very much! Yess I will add more mechanics after for a full version.

Submitted(+1)

This really captured me, a unique premise, executed very well, and attention to detail is brilliant! The main menu and UI are especially great, really fit the vibe. Philosophical, and I love the music.  very well done :) 

Developer(+1)

Thanks you very much !  i'm glad you enjoyed it !

Also if you suicide button you can get some alt endings which will give some more lore informations especially the one of the Baby. You can replay a match by using the replay option of the main menu

I really like the 3D pixel art cards, those effects were really cool! 

Developer

Thanks you very much !

Submitted(+1)

Nice one bit art you got there, simple and beautiful!

I'm surprised you managed to cramp so many levels in one jam, really cool!

You could definitely continue and make a 100 levels game of sorts

Developer

Thank you very much! I'm planning to make a full version with more mechanics!

Submitted(+1)

The simple pixel art is really charming, and the sound design fits the atmosphere perfectly.
The constant repetition gives it a strangely unsettling feeling — and I really enjoy that kind of eerie vibe!
I also liked that the combat is expressed through a kind of dodging gameplay (I’m not sure what the exact term is).
While the levels don’t differ much yet, I can see endless potential for creative variations with this system.
I’m looking forward to the full release

Developer

Thanks you very much for this feedback!  I will work on more mechanics for the full release to add more diversity.

Submitted(+1)

Played on Opera GX, the bullet pattern for the first three enemies was exactly the same, is this intended? In any case cool idea, the atmosphere is cool.

Developer

The Bullet Sounds is completely Random. When you hit or get hit it select a random sound effect from 3 bullets sounds and 2 knives songs


Thanks you for your review!

Developer

If this was your problem it's fixed :

Played it on Opera and didn't encounter any issues (i think). I like the Undertale inspo you used for the mechanic, but it did get a little repetitive, at least in my playthrough. The concept is cool, i like that youre given a choice of when you wanna draw the line!

Developer(+1)

Thanks you very much for your review! Indeed I hadn't developed a lot of mechanics but if a full version ever come out I will make more diversity!

Submitted(+1)

I played it on Windows using Firefox, but there seems to be a bug: all the levels are the same. I enjoyed the Undertale-style and you can even choose to kill yourself; the concept is interesting. It’s a shame I couldn’t access the other levels.

Developer

Oohh ! It's better to download , hope you enjoyed! 

When you said all level are the same you mean it's replaying the first woman again and again?

Submitted

Yes it's the first one again and again :) But I could still tell that the gameplay loop's great!

Developer(+1)

Oohh I see the problem ! Seems like firefox have hard time to accept my round global values after this level. 

Developer(+1)

Fixed !

Thanks! I'll try it again

Submitted(+1)

I don’t get it. Is it supposed to be only one level?

Developer (1 edit)

It's 9 levels. Maybe a bug occurred. Try to relaunch .

What is your plateform ?

Submitted

It’s working on linux, but it’s not working in Firefox.

Developer (1 edit)

Ohh, Maybe a bug with Unity's WebGL Build

Developer(+1)

Fixed , it was a Web build error!
