It was a bit confusing as to what to do. I ended up running into random rooms, looking for stuff. I accidentally found the key, and then door 21 was labeled “XI” which is the roman numeral for 11. Overall, I feel like some enemies could have been nice, as the power ups were basically useless, and there could have been better level design, but the art was good.

TicTacToe RemakeNot super clear what is happening, less expecting the unexpected, more random stabbing in the dark. Also the victory screen doesn't actually end the game, you can still do things over and over (like mash E to repeatedly open the door).
Your only addition artistically speaking seems to be the player icon and powerups which are notably visually very different from the used assets, also somewhat unclear as to what the character is, I'm assuming a jester hat?
Reminds me of Cube with the shifting of your surroundings, but with less urgency as nothing is trying to constantly murder you.
But you did do the thing, so nice one :) Also would be cool with more Tarot references ;)
thank you for the feedback! I agree with basically all the issues you brought up, and if I had had more time, I'd have created a custom tileset and put more work into communicating what was going on
Sadly because of how time zones and my sleeping schedule lined up, I ended up having just about 14 hours for the entire thing, since the jam ran from 6 am to 6 am for me haha
ah that's understandable, here's how it works:
Each room has a number from 0 to 20 and you need to find the key to unlock door 21 (door to The World) in the first room you get to. But periodically, the room each door leads to will be increased by 1 so it's your job to figure out a route back to room 1 while the doors keep changing their destinations
