The idea of getting abilities by dying from certain objects is interesting and well thought out. It also led me to some unexpected surprises of dying from the sword trap, lava, and falling at the start. Good job

Thanks a lot !

Great atmosphere, and really cool idea! You took what the most obvious way to see the theme ("when you die, you retry with more abilities") but added that very original twist of needing to find new ways to die to advance. The graphics were good and the sound design has some nice attention to it, so great job =).

Using "alt" in a game was a bit strange, but other than that, the controls are nice and feel good. Congratulations, that is a solid entry =)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback :)

I think needs some camera view improvements, is hard to see what is next.

Great Music

Developer

Thank you <3

I liked the simple yet clean art style quite a bit.

Some of the sounds hit a bit harshly (jump sound notably).

A solid entry nonetheless!

Developer

Thank you <3

Looks really cool, my only problem is that the player feels idk like stiff and since is a platformer the most important aspect is the movement. Other than that is a cool little jam game

Developer

Thanks for the feedback.

Great look! Reminds me a little of my Atari 2600, apart from the glowing pixels! Good job!

Thanks a lot.

Great idea and great game ! Minimalistic style work really well, the little effect you put on it look really good. And the different scales according to the rooms really give different impressions with small amount of assets and I think it is very smart, good job ! ;)

Developer

Thanks a lot

I was stuck on a few of them, but still, it was fun! New abilities after you die! SPOILER: (I didn't think drowning would work, but it did) Also, try out my game!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback I will test your game (-:

The way it fits the theme is good but a little bit confusing. Very good music though.

YOO i just played your game ComplicatedEgg. a few bugs and glitches but dude the art and story is amazing !

Submitted(+1)

I like the mechanics itself but the player movement feels really slippery. But I had fun playing it! Good work! :D

First of all, the music is really nice and fits the theme.

Character controls feel a bit heavy for my taste, feels like the character should move a bit faster and have less sliding when they stop.

Also a simple animation for the character would be nice.

Overall, really nice game! Good job!

Developer

Thanks a lot !

I like the idea but but I feel like the player moved a bit too uncontrollably and slowly. Really nice on how you get new abilities when you die. Overall, good work!

Developer

Thank for the feedback I will try to improve the movement after the jam.
