Great game! It was hard to stop playing it despite I didn't like the WASD + Space controls (didn't really get the added value of hitting space for movement instead of just using the arrows or WASD). But non the less, good visuals and sound, fun gameplay, well done!

Developer

Awesome!! Very humble with your nice words. 

Funny you mentioned the jump button; once the Jam is done; I will give it a try.

Really fun game! I love the memorization gameplay and how it plays a note that gets higher for each successive landed jump

Developer

Thanks!? Glad you liked it.

That incremental note just came to me and it added it a nice touch.

A cute looking game and a solid base loop.
You cleverly circumvented the problem that the only way to find out which clouds are real is pure chance by also making it reaction based with the reaper chasing you.

I really enjoyed this one!

Small things I would improve is to move a tile on tap of a directional button instead the need to also press space which was just an inconvenient.

Developer

Glad you had fun with it! Thanks for the feedback. I thought about removing the jump button too, but I faced a challenge, that sometimes it might be frustrating to jump automatically and keep some decision to the player. Still I might revisit this and made that change.

Nice game, I kept jumping in the direction I did not want to go through. Probably my human error but I wonder if there is a way to make it more forgiving.

Developer(+1)

Glad you liked it! Interesting, I think there might be some ways.

Neat concept, fun design and many good baas. 10/10 based on the number of sheeps alone.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I like the BAAA rating, I was hoping it would cause a positive impact in my numbers!

Really fun memory game, I like how the assets looked and the sound effects. Although I wish we could see where all the fake clouds are in the beginning of each level. I like having the nightmares chase me around, but when I die close to the starting point they are pretty hard to lose. But overall really good!

Developer

Thanks! Glad you had fun with it. Initally I thought on setting a gold sheep on every level that will jump accross the shortest path, and then the level starts to give you and idea.  Next time then.

Fun cute game

Developer

Thanks! Likewise!

Really good looking game!

Developer

Thanks! Glad you like it, initially was going to be less colorful.

Submitted(+1)

amazing! i like the art and the idea of the game, it was really fun! 

Developer

Thanks! I enjoyed your game a lot too. I was lucky , had some good hours of coding and it just fit. 

Submitted(+1)

I really liked the art style, and the fact that all your models were made by you is pretty impressive. The gameplay gets a little repetitive after a while, but the timer was a good addition as it puts some pressure on you when playing levels. The not real clouds feel also add some pressure, cool game.

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much! I been learning Blender and Unity as a hobby, I still don´t know how to animate but I do my best to work on the aesthetic and make it part of the overall feel of the game. 
Initally I had only 5 levels, but then decided to keep it up to 10 (7-8 did not felt right). The fake clouds were the original idea, but the timer came along, as you said, to add necessary pressure and keep you on your toes.

This game was great! The graphics were stylized really well and went together great.  The addition of death was great and really made it feel intense. All around awesome!

Developer

Glad you liked it! Agree, once the nightmare was added it felt completely different, I was so close on Thursday night on changing direction to a speed runner.

Cute little sheeps hahaha. There are some instances when the ghosts are catching me even if I am 2 blocks away unless it is intended. And even some are teleporting. But that is just minor one. Good job! :)

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, need a bit more polish in the pathfinding and maybe more forgiving colliders.

Great concept and the game looks great! 

Developer

Awesome! Glad you liked it!

Fun game, very nerve-wracking when there are more nightmares on the board!

Submitted(+1)

Right? It really made the game.

Developer

Yeah! That gave it the extra push, I was going to try something different then that really clicked.

Submitted(+1)

haha, how cute. I'm relly bad in memory games, but i like the concept and your take on the theme. Very cool! :-)

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Glad you liked it, funny enough I was making another, and on Wednesday I knew that I wouldn´t make it, so I tried again with idea #1 and pushed forward. 

Submitted(+2)

I had so much fun playing this game! The characters were adorable!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Glad you like it. I made them extra fluffy to hide the fact that I don't know how to animate :D

Great Game!
