This was truly something pretty. But for real, I loved the asthetic of this game and it felt super polished. One thing though, I was pretty upset when my audio cut out and I had no clue how to get it back, which sucks because the music was amazing. But despite that, I really enjoyed this

I'm sorry to hear that the audio cut out, that's been an issue some people had, there are audio setting in the pause menu to fix it. Sorry that this bug lessened your experience.

This game is so awesome. Its art syle is so pretty and beautiful. Its gameplay is fun, feels great and its hard sometimes, but as the game its plenty of checkpoints the game still feeels casual and almost everyone can complete it. I really hope this gets into the top 50 games.

Also, very grateful to be able to play this game in Spanish. Congrats for you game!

Developer

Thank you so much, I really appreciate all your kind words! I'm glad the difficulty was at a good level. Our Spanish translator jumped for joy hearing your comment! Thank you for playing our game!!

This game is indeed something pretty! The controls are smooth, well-done!

Developer

Thank you very much! I really appreciate it and I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

I’ve seen the hand-drawn art trope plenty of times before, but your execution was incredible and the message was great. Very well done, and I liked the platforming.

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm happy you enjoyed the game.

This is freaking beautiful! the movement is smooth and the music is delightful. Not to mention the platforming and design. This is sick!

Developer

Thank you so much! You are far too kind! I'm glad you enjoyed my game!

This game is great! I loved it. Music and art were great. I found it a little frustrating lol Idk if that is by design or if the controls could be tightened up. 

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you liked the art and music. The movement probably could be improved a bit. It's hard to know what's a fun level of difficulty and one that makes people wanna rip their hair out, especially when you only have a few play testers. The consensus seems to be mixed in the comments haha.

Hah it is a difficult line to walk. I fully plan on coming back and playing this game again! I also keep pestering my teammate to play it.

This game is so so pretty. I really really love the art so much. Some of the jumps are a little tight, but the platforming is really cool. Also appreciate the menu and it's really cool that there are multiple languages cool.

I don't really have anything else to say, this game is just really really peak.

I would say that this overall was a good game. The art style was incredibly good and is likely the main attractor for this game but I have a few problems. Going through the game, I felt like there were multiple times where you were about to iterate on a new idea but then just skipped it. Looking at the video, I see that was the main idea of it but I feel like it could've held up better.  The art style changed to the cute paper houses but then it just abruptly stopped. Same with the movement. I feel like the movement was nothing important and a tad generic. The dive feature was used a total of like 4 times and was a bit underwhelming. Same with the dash. It was used for barely any time and felt rushed. Mechanic wise, this game felt lacking. The platforming was kinda basic and ranged from really easy to pretty annoying with no in-between. The movement is a bit inconsistent. It feels like all the effort was put into the graphics (which are incredibly pretty and has a lot of charm) rather than the gameplay. It's a good game but I just wish the mechanics would be more interesting

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed the artstyle. Sorry you didn't enjoy the gameplay. Thank you for your feedback.

Very fun concept and a excellent platformer. The jump is responsive and wall jumping is very smooth.

Developer

Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked the movement.

The art style is honestly insane, the whole clay look gives it so much personality, it really stands out from everything else

Platforming feels satisfying and some sections are pretty challenging in a good way. I did notice it can get a bit frustrating at times, but it makes it more rewarding when you get through it

Really solid game overall. If you get a chance, check out mine too, I’d really appreciate a rating and some feedback

Developer

Thank you very much! I'll definitely check out your game!

The clay animation is so cool!

Developer

Thank you vey much! I'm very proud of it! :D

Very cool game, absolutely adore the bits of animated claymation around, though the flat textured surfaces in contrast to the clay things was a little bit jarring. I really liked the soundtrack, and the ending was really good. Good stuff all around

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! That means a lot. I know it sounds like a cop out but its supposed to be a little jarring as it's a world he doesn't necessarily belong to anymore and he doesn't fit in.

Fair enough! still very cool

Dude this game is so good!! I loved finding the three snails, her dialogue was so charming and the easter egg music track was nice. Ending made me kinda emotional too, what a cute little conclusion. Its isane to think you had to sculpt every asset in the game, no wonder it looks like something so.,,. pretty.

nice thumbnail art too i wonder who drew it

Submitted(+1)

Of all the games I've seen so far, this is the one that has the most impressive artstyle.  It looks very nice.  The gameplay reminds me of super meat boy, and I love the fact that this game actually has a meaningful point to it at the end.  Amazing work.

Developer

Thank you so much! that really means a lot! I'm glad you liked the artstyle!

Really fun and really great art style! I was surprised when itch.io showed me the install size was like a gig LOL but now i see why. The gameplay and animation are really smooth and good, and I was honestly not expecting it to be as hard as it was. I made it through the wall jumping section and thought that there was no more power ups, but turns out there was! There's def a good chunk of content in here and I'd love to explore more of it. I think some more checkpoints would have been nice, for example I got to the part with the paper craft town, but then when I died near the top of the castle, I got sent allll the way back there, so that was a bit frustrating. But overall it does feel nice to play, and I quite like the wall jumping. Some values on it could be tweaked to make it smoother, but thats for stuff after the jam. Overall, fun game!

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

THE ART STYLE IS SOO UNIQE AND GOOD

Developer

its pretty pretty

Artstyle and vibes are on point, and imo the game gets better the longer its played

Great work :)

Developer

Thank you so much! :) I'm glad you enjoyed it!

The game indeed is very- Oh. Someone else has already made that joke? Well anyways the art style is an instant 5 star, the movement turns from alright to peak, the songs are great. Some issues I have are that the intro cutscene is not skippable, the first power's (jump I mean) introduction is a little messy and the movement could've been developed faster. But the game was fun to play overall, greaaat job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much I'm glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the constructive criticism! If done over again I definitely would have made the intro skippable.
