Well that was quite the ride, very nice and polished. Good palette and tileset, music on point and challenging. The guy looks a little off with the rest maybe? Its good anyway. There was some serious "lag" though, I suspect you used tweening with the movement? It could be related. I like it :)


Developer

Thank you for your nice feedback!

We do use tweening for the boxes and character movement, yes. I didn’t know it could cause performance issues. We’ll look into that!

You are welcome friend. Not sure if it's perfomance or the animations "slaping", dont know how to explain it but with tweening things can get out of control. Suddenly an animation that was supossed to complete in 2 seconds takes 0.5 and it becomes snappy, giving the effect of lag/performance issue. I have had that problem, not sure how to fix it. Maybe playing with the easy_out's and easy_in's.

This was hard! I played this for far longer than intended before I took a break on Mercury (still a work day 🤣), it's so intense! The scrolling camera definitely adds a big element of urgency to an otherwise pretty familiar sokoban puzzle, great stuff!

It was the last level ! You just missed a 'thanks for playing' text, and a little pixel art background so don't worry. You made it super far ! Even some of us, I won't say who, had trouble reaching the end. We probably should have lowered the difficulty a little. Especially for a game jam.

Initially, we planned on making more levels with slower difficulty progression. But time got us :)

Thanks for you review ! Glad you enjoyed the game !

This is a really well made game! There's not a lot of graphic, but what's there is very well used and your presentation is super. I really liked the music and your sound effects are right on. I was able to beat all the planets but needed *cough" my other half's help to beat the last level. Not necessarily because I couldn't beat it myself, but he snuck in while I was taking a tea break. 

I hope you get more ratings soon, it is a solid game. 

Developer

Thanks a lot for the kind comment! And congrats for finishing the game, it’s not that easy :)

Thanks for your comment! And too bad, things are getting interesting on Mars, sure you can figure it out ;)

As Erika Taylor once said: Sometimes you have to take a step back to move forward.

Hope this help 🙃

Great and fun game to play. I like the concept of the moving camera and looping levels where you have to memorize certain things to progress further. The soundtrack and art style are also really nice. Overall polished and fun experience :)

Please consider rating my game too. :D

The concept of the constantly moving camera is super exciting and sets this game apart from a boring puzzle game. It also fits the theme of restless wandering as a nomad. Super polished game with beautiful graphics and great soundtrack. Incredible work in such a short time!

Thanks a lot ! It was our first gamejam and we're super happy we finished it in time !
Glad someone else got some fun out of it :D
