The jam's ended! Thank you all for the feedback and reviews for our game! ^^ Glad to see that even if we didn't manage to get it exactly as we wanted due to time, part of what we were aiming for still got through. 

It was once again wonderful Scream Jam! See you hopefully in the next Scream Jam too.

Spooky game, and the environment on both the light and the dark worlds are amazing.

Really enjoyed the atmosphere, and the game was super spooky. Great stuff!

Oddly serene yet pressing atmosphere, but a welcome mix.
I had troubles figuring out where to go, but definitly an enjoyable experience.

I love the art style of the game, but I found it hard to move around. It was also hard to know what the object of the game was. It looks fantastic, though!

Absolutely lovely art style, I'd be very interested in reading a graphic novel that looks like this. Had a good time exploring this little forest, and the main character looks super cool.

I really liked the way it looked but I think the game might have bugged for me. I could go in and out of dark mode but only walk extremely slow and couldn't get to any of the game as a result. 

Also some of the text at the beginning went off the screen. I think those might need to be adjusted to show up lower and maybe a bit wider horizontally to make up for it

Sorry about the bug! It's known bug due to a "tutorial wall" at the beginning, which stops players progressing until they have activated the ability at least once. Bug occurs when the player is in contact with those walls when the ability is activated and only way to get rid of it is to restart (and way to prevent it is to avoid the invisible walls, like stand still, and then activate the ability). I honestly should have more forethought for that because in the end I think fixing the bug permanently is super easy. 

 Huge apologies for the inconvenience, but thank you for trying the game nonetheless and giving feedback! :D

really enjoyed swapping between the two worlds and seeing what was different, and the art was beautiful too. good experience!

I can easily feel myself in the scenario, I really liked the idea, I found it very immersive. (Sorry if maybe I sound grammatically incorrect, I'm using google translate haha.)

wow! The art is amazing! I think I couldn't play the game as it was meant to be, because I could only walk into nothingness, and there is no Mac option to download the game, but for what I could see, it was amazing! Keep it up! <3

Developer

Ah, yeah the web build has some weird-oddities it seems, plus our "tutorial" ended up bare bones, so mechanics of the game were left bit unclear. Sorry about that and the lack of Mac build ^^; Thank you for trying it out nonetheless!

A really cool look here! Great job

Amazing art, would love to see you expand on this project, good job

The art for this game is just amazing, And the main character looks really well made. And I really appreciate the tiny details, like how the main character closes their eyes when their idle animation plays or all the little things found troughout the world. The machanics and what you're actually supposed to do are a bit unclear from the start, but after a while you'll get the hang of it. Had a lot of fun playing this!

Great game, Keep it upโ™ฅ

The art is sweet!  The movement is kind of slow in the WebGL build and the collisions seem off, but that's probably easy stuff to fix.

Beautiful game. I'm not sure I understood where I could go though. Sometimes you just walk and the character loses momentum.

Really awesome unique concept,

Beautiful colours and art also, great job!
