Oh this is a fun game! I got stuck on level 2 though--it seemed like the difficulty ramps up a bit quickly. I feel like the bloom makes text a bit difficult to read but it is a cool effect in the game!
I liked this a lot! The walls in the puzzles felt a bit weird at first, but after I played a few levels I realised there was a lot of room for nuance in play. For instance I can pass through thin passages by wildly flailing my mouse in vaguely circular motions (strafing didn't work quite so reliably, but...)
Or maybe that's an exploit, but hey, I didn't have to restart any of the levels! (X I really liked the feeling of a purified deer being on your side by protecting you as a wall, too, it feels a lot nicer than if you simply killed them.
Game Title/URL: Robbert's Breakn't | https://angekng.itch.io/roberts-breaknt
Pitch/Information: This is a game where u collect 8 cristal pieces, for each piece u collect the game changes a little bit, making u go to new paths.
I'd like feedback on: Anything u can critique is well recieved, from visuals to mechanics :)).
ohhhh these visuals are so lovely!! the mechanics are very easy to grasp too though as soon as i unlocked wind and tried to get the next crystal i tried to get to the next piece but missed one of the jumps--however jumping back up after missing this was much more difficult with the wind blowing left and a longer jump going right if that makes sense!
This was pretty cute. The fire rain was pretty rage-inducing for me though. Maybe there could be arrows pointing to the next piece?
First of all, I love the game! I think the tutorial works pretty well, especially because it allows you to try out the main mechanic with no penalties to get a grasp of how it works. It would, however, be a little helpful if the tutorial gave an example, or maybe had the manager show Guy how it works so you don't exactly have to figure it out for yourself based on the instructions. I think the changes in the info available definitely make the game more fun, but the speed increases seem a little excessive, and make it a little stressful - maybe make them more gradual? (or maybe I'm just bad at the game). Either way, at least the first time you play, it's really hard to understand whats going on when the info available changes (and to read all the hint text) so it might be better if the hint text was put in the tutorial as a "if it breaks" kinda thing. Overall though, I really loved this game, it seems like it could be a really fun IOS or Android app!
Game Title/URL: Your Little Cute Tree https://badtrip.itch.io/your-little-cute-tree
Pitch/Information: A 3d game where you have to change the weather to grow your small plant and turn it into a tree! Pic related: 
I'd like feedback on: Art.
I need help on: Please can you check if the UI is ok? Tell me if you see all the buttons and instruction clearly!
these characters were charming and i found a lot of it very relatable!
when you have to click around the icebox to find the source of the smell, i wonder if it's possible to have a little more feedback over areas when you hover the mouse or to make it clear what you're looking for. i wound up blindly clicking for a while and was a little frustrated. the background image is so beautiful that nothing looked out of place, and there's no change to the image to indicate which areas have already been clicked/which areas you should focus on searching.
i liked the custom menu at the start of the game too; it was very cute and immediately felt really polished.
Thank you so much for the feedback! You don't even know just how helpful this is to me. I thought that players wouldn't click around much in the point and click sections because I had looked at the background so many times that the solution was obvious to me. I will keep this in mind for future projects and if I patch the game I will make sure to add indicators and make that section less frustrating! Thank you so much for sharing your opinion!
Awesome game! The storyline was really well done, and I love how you got to know each customer and connect with them! And the ending was amazing! I love how it connected back to the beginning of the game! The art was beautiful, and I really liked the small choices and interactions you could do - the only things I'd say is that more interaction/choices would be nice, but with the limited time it makes sense that you could only put in so many choices, and other than the grandma the other real world parts didn't seem like they had much to do with the main story - though I'm sure they would if you had more time. And the shaking animations and facial expressions were so well done! Make more please! :)
Thank you so much for the feedback! I wish I could have added more choices that actually affect the game and there were several endings planned depending on how nice you were to your customers. Unfortunately I had to scrap all of this and didn't even notice that most choices became absolutely irrelevant because of that! Aside from a few subtle changes in dialogue the choices don't really affect the game. Thank you so much for the feedback! If I patch the game I will make sure that alternate scenes or maybe even an alternate ending will be included. Thank you so much for playing!
The premise is really, really innovative and pretty funny too!
The animation is great, though I feel you could have the polar bear sync up with the snowball speed a little better. Also, the death animation sometimes glitches out and stuff.
The game isn't too hard, though, but maybe you could add some ramps for the player go off of.
I love what you did with the music! The art was great. I like the concept as well.
I did feel like it was difficult to keep track of each world. Especially because you don’t know if the platform you are on is safe in other dimensions. Maybe adding a single item from the safe dimensions to the current dimension could help alleviate this. Eg. add a dark item to the light realm on the current platform when they are in both dimensions. Just some food for thought.
Distance while swapping was another thing that was difficult to keep track of. I think this is because of the way that the camera follows you as you jump.
Wall jump felt pretty restrictive because of how long it took away my controls for.
Your platformer could really benefit from looking into Coyote Time/Jump Buffering. There were definitely more than a few times that I died because of it.
Thank you so much for the detailed feedback! All of these were things I had concerns about but didn't have time to iterate on, but I will definitely be adjusting them as I continue to work on the game. Visually distinct "safe" tiles that are the same in all worlds, a focus on single screen levels so you can see everything at once and not get disoriented as the camera moves, and significant tweaks to jumping and wall jumping are all top priorities. Thanks for playing and thanks again for taking the time to comment!

I'd like feedback on: I'd like feedback on mechanics and is it too hard? Being my first completed game, I'd like feedback just in general.
I need help on: I couldn't figure out how to do a fairy dust particle training effect
I thought the visuals were great, and never too dark for me. Controls were easy to get the hang of, and the active/inactive platform changes were easy to understand and predict right away. The controls felt good in almost every way, but the deceleration on the player makes things feel a little slippery, and the trickier jumps were a little frustrating for me because of it.
The platforming sequences are really well designed, but being stacked on top of each other means if you miss a jump you might lose minutes of progress and have to redo it all, which gets worse the farther up you get. This might be by design, but I struggle with games that make me do the same thing after I've been successful at it just to get back to the part I'm stuck at. Checkpoints would really help, and they could even be optional.
I know I already mentioned the visuals, but just wanted to add that the art style and sound design were really good and immersive, and established a strong mood right away that pulled me in. I couldn't make it to the end past the really tiny platform jumps, but I'm going to play more when I have a chance later because I'd like to see more.
I didn't notice any tile tearing when I played, but I had a problem with it developing my game too, and this is what fixed it for me (it's for one of the 2018 versions of Unity but I'm using 2019.3.15 and it worked fine):

Game Title/URL: Gravity Knight
Pitch/Information: Platformer game with gravity change
I'd like feedback on: I appreciate any kind of feedback
I really like the animations, the hint text, and how you challenged the player based around the main mechanic! It was nice, challenging, and with just enough open-ness that it feels like you could get really good (speedrun??). The one thing that bugged me throughout my playthrough was the camera - it was really often difficult to tell what was above/below/beside you. As in, when you are going right, most of what you see is to the left, so you can be really easily surprised, and when you switch to the opposite gravity, your character is at the very top of the screen, so you can't tell what your going to land on. The first few levels were small enough that this didn't matter, but in the last 2 it was a little frustrating at times. Other than that though, the art and gameplay was really fun to play and look at!
