The graphics are insane and how can we perform wall jump ? I'm struggling with a part of the level where you stuck in a kind of pit with green balls . Anyways the gameplay is cool , the music is ok tier for me if i'm honest . Also love the AD , And I think that's it ! Didn't finished it cause I was stuck .

Developer

those are dash crestalse 😅

you can dash up 😅

Submitted

oh crap didn't know that , thanks ! 

Developer

my bad i dident manshen that in the game

Submitted

its fine :)

Submitted(+1)

it's very difficult for me to play such games, because after more than 10 failures, my ass is burning very brightly :) but the visual effects and sounds are good, and the game runs smoothly without any obvious bugs. Good job!

Submitted(+1)

While I really like the monochrome art style and dialogues, I feel like this is even harder than Celeste... QAQ

  • The dash reset object is too small to grab
  • The laser types are introduced too quickly, and players can hardly remember them
  • The dash direction is determined by the keyboard direction, but use mouse as the trigger
Developer

i will try to fix thos 

i dont have experions in level disigne its my ferst game that i finish

The artwork and visual style are great. But damn I am absolutely trash at precision platformers. The dash mechanic reminds me of playing celeste. I felt that when dashing for the green orbs, I had to be too precise or I would end up failing the jumps. I wish the hitboxes were larger on them. Otherwise this is a cool submission.

Developer

i toke the dash orbe micanic from selest actuly and i made the game hare i know but i did a mistak i play tested the game my self so i felt it was essy and made i hared for me and you know the rest of the storry 😅

i will make my hitboxes beger next time and try to do beter in level desighne 

i relly love your feedback

i olsow played your game youmaby winer 

and i hope for you all the best

Submitted(+1)

Damn, amazing game! the art style and music are top notch! the game felt very polished as i literally found 0 bugs. The game in browser feels laggy but the downloadable build fixed that. Game-play wise it was difficult but i love difficult games so i really enjoyed the play through.

Developer

thank you soo  mash i will seee your game to and give my rating on it

Amazing game! 

I like the visuals, feels special. 

It was hard to keep a memory of what to do with the lasers because the info was fed to me all at once. That could frustrate your players, or just have them dash through the whole thing, ignoring damage, which takes away the skill aspect. 

What should help is introducing the lasers one at a time as you explain what to do. Trickle feed this information. 

Developer(+1)

thank you sooo mhashfor talling me thate

i don have experionce in level designe but with you feedback you are helping me a lotte 

in my next game i will take note of that

thank you sooo mhash

The style is PHE NO ME NAL!

Visually, everything looks great and very cohesive. The music and sound design are also excellent, and the wind sounds recorded with a microphone are super funny part.

The dialogues are funny, the characters are nicely illustrated, and the world is presented really well.

From a gameplay perspective, there are a lot of cool ideas and interesting mechanics.

That said, gameplay wise the game is insanely difficult. From my own experience, when you balance a game by yourself, it’s easy to make it too hard because as the creator you know the mechanics inside out and practice them constantly while coding. It’s really worth having someone else test the game or making it a bit more forgiving, so players can experience the whole thing instead of giving up (like I did 😞).

The mechanics are explained through text. Personally, I love not reading text, skipping it, and then having no idea what’s going on. It would be great if the mechanics were explained more visually, for example with “Shift” written on a wall and an arrow pointing up near the green points.

I also got stuck once on the dialogues because I didn’t realize that Z skips them. That wasn’t obvious to me, since I don’t usually play games where skipping works that way.

I found one bug as well. If you slowly approach the edge where the camera changes position, you can step back after the camera switches, but the camera stays where it is. The player character is no longer visible, and it’s hard to tell what’s going on.

Overall, the game is fantastic. As a first game jam project, it’s almost perfect. The atmosphere is amazing and the game feels good to play. The only real downsides are that it’s too difficult and that it doesn’t communicate things to the player in an easy, intuitive way. Still, a great game!

Submitted(+1)

I’m really glad I could help 🙂

Also, your English is honestly funny in a good way, it adds charm, and most importantly, it’s totally understandable. That’s what really matters.

I knew you recorded the wind sounds with your own voice because you mentioned it under another post when I asked about it earlier 😄

And actually, it’s me who’s really looking forward to your next games!

Developer
