I really love the graphics and music, which perfectly match this game's world✨
This is the kind of game that makes me want to stay up all night playing it. It reminded me of the excitement I felt as a child when I bought a fancy boxed game—a feeling I haven't really experienced with recent games.🙂
Set in such a wonderful world, I thought it was a shame that the bottom part of the "Let's Start Adventure" text in the title screen was cut off.
First of all, I really want to thank you for organizing this Game Jam. ❤️ It genuinely pushed me beyond what I thought was my technical limit. It was an intense development experience, but at the same time it gave me so much room for creativity and interpretation.
I'm really happy to hear that my game brought back those childhood memories for you. That honestly means a lot to me. 😊 If I had to add one more theme to the game, it would probably be "childhood." I think that's the feeling I was unconsciously trying to capture.
I also noticed the UI issue you pointed out. 😄 In fact, if you look closely, you'll probably find quite a few more UI mistakes and rough edges throughout the game. But I suppose that's part of the spirit of a Game Jam—done is better than perfect. Of course, those are exactly the kinds of things I want to improve as I continue developing the project after the jam.
If there's another edition of this Game Jam in the future, I'd love to participate again. The community was incredibly active, and I genuinely enjoyed being part of such an enthusiastic and creative atmosphere.
Thank you again for making all of this possible! 🎮
Thank you so much for your heartfelt words! To be honest, I am the one who should be thanking you. I am just a facilitator; it’s the passion and incredible creativity of participants like you that made this Game Jam such an active, enthusiastic, and beautiful success. Having your masterpiece submitted to this jam is an absolute honor.
Your game is on an entirely different level—the animation reminiscent of the MYST era, the gorgeous mandala-like line art, and the dramatic, cinematic music are simply breathtaking. To achieve this level of complete world-building within a jam period is genuinely mind-blowing.
I 100% agree with the spirit of "done is better than perfect." The tiny UI note was just my way of rooting for your game's future growth, because I know I’ll definitely be coming back to play it again and again. I believe pointing out these small details helps games evolve into even greater versions of themselves.
And I have some exciting news to share! Your wonderful feedback helped clear all my doubts: I have officially decided to make this Game Jam a regular event! Starting next month, it will be held every single month on the second weekend.
Knowing that creators like you are out there makes me want to keep providing this playground for creativity. I would be absolutely thrilled to see you in future editions. Keep refining this beautiful world, and thank you again for making this jam so magical!
Kind regards,
Michyo
