How is your game related to the Theme and Special Object?
It's a rythm game where you need to keep going with the rhythm to progress and you're using a brush to clean things with!

Music was the highlight of the game, and overall the game had a nice idea! Great work!

Developer

Tanes is so good, I'm glad you enjoyed his compositions as much as I did!

It looks very surreal, which is cool and the music fits well! Interesting idea to make a rhythm game with such a jam-theme, great job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for checking it out!

The music is really beautiful. I can't play the game because the mouse sensitivity is too high and it makes me nauseous, it needs to be turned way way down! Doesn't fit the "can't stop moving" premise and I'm not sure if it brushes on its own or if there's a key I need to press? I think the idea is compelling, and I hope you keep working on it after the jam because I think this game could become very good especially with the gorgeous piano music.

Reading the other comments it seems like this was supposed to be a rhythm game????? I didn't get that at all..... Was I supposed to go to a certain place in order for the rhythm game to begin?

Developer

Yeah I definitely dropped the ball in offering tutorials on the game's description. There's Osu like segments that you access by walking up to certain objects (specifically, if i remember correctly, the sign, the storage container, the train car, but afaik the storage container is bugged). Thank you for taking the time to play and leave a comment!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Interesting idea, impressive atmosphere. However the cleaning gameplay was not completely functional. The moving "buttons" just weren't registering any clicks. They're also misleading because when they appear, they're on one side and then slide over starting from the opposite side.

Could be a really good game with some tweaks i think :)

Great idea!
I didnt quite get what i have to do to get +++? First glance i thought it was like osu, but i just brushed everything like a maniac and get +++ should it work like that?
Atmosphere is top tier btw 

Developer

Thank you, and thank you for playing! It should be a on percentage on how well you did, but from feedback it doesn't seem to work for everyone.

Damn, I think I got lost, I just walked straight up the hill, came across a house that had a non-collision ladder, and then just kept walking, melancholically by sounds, while rub hills with brush

Oh no! I didn't have time to put up boundry collisions x) I hoped people would stick to the initial valley^^ But maybe you got the real experience  :D

That's quite the apocalyptic scene you made there. I managed to clean the sign (+++) but did not manage to get anything done on the shed (--). No matter what I tried, the circles moved way too fast and neither clicking them nor repeating after them would make any progress. If the idea is to have the player follow the circle the entire time then that part is way too difficult.

Managed to get a bit done on the next building and the car, but also there the speed is insane. It's actually so fast that the animation of the broom can not keep up with the clicking :P

I liked the atmosphere and the music behind it :)

Developer

Thank you for playing and the feedback! Might be some issue with frame time that I didn't consider for the circles moving too fast. :)

Submitted

Great game. I hope that the development of the game will continue because it is clearly not completed!

Developer

Thank you for checking out our game! Who knows, maybe we'll get a chance to pick up the brush again...

Liminal space vibe hehe and loved the music :3

Developer

Thanks for playing! Tanes' music is so easy for me to get lost in,  I'm glad you enjoyed it!
