Pretty dang cool design! I always like a game that gives me a yeet button, and this one is no exception to that rule. But seriously, this is a pretty well made game. Gotta love the feeling of juggling more than you can handle. Nice aesthetic, and the existence of the spring boots made me feel more like I actually need to remember to go back for things when I'd usually just dawdle along until I hit a wall. Nice work and a fun game!

Beautiful game, nailed the aesthetic and the music. Took me a _long_ time to work out that my cursor was directing the throw mechanic, which was a bit of a head scratcher. But I got it eventually!

I would have liked a way to recover from throwing my jump boots out of reach though.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing and your kind words! You can press Q to undo throws and get your boots back, I should have made that clearer in the game. <3

Ah, I see! Maybe a little "Q" above the item when it comes to rest.

Spot on! I recorded while I played and commented, here's the video for you :)

Nice take on single slot inventory! Made for some good puzzles. Controls were nice and responsive too. I had a few issues - if I clicked the red button then the game just crashed! I also accidentally forgot my jumpy-booties a few times and forgot there was an undo button... ...so that was my fault haha. Lovely job! 

Developer

Thanks so much for playing! The red button is quit, lol (I made it more obvious in the patch). Thanks for the kind words <3

Oh god ... how did I not realise that haha. I thought it was picking your player colour or something! My bad :D

Awesome game! This is definitely one of the better single inventory slot games I've played so far. Managing the inventory feels more like a fun challenge and less of a chore, and the puzzle design is impressive for being done in under 48 hours.

Developer

Thanks so much, I'm glad you liked it! I'm glad it doesn't seem like a chore, I tried to make it fun because I knew it could get tedious. Stoked you noticed that. Thanks for playing :)

This is a simple concept that has great power!

And also seems to require a great deal of smart level design so it won't become a hassle to keep going back and forth to get all itens to be able to progress. That's the main issue I see with this game. Also I found a bug where, after quitting and re-opening the game, I pressed 'R' to restart and re-spawned way later in the level, and without any itens, so completely stuck. That was weird haha.

Feels good to play and is intuitive. Liked the music and simple sfxs as well. So nice job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for the kinds words! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yes, that bug is known and is patched out in that update. Thanks for playing! :)

Great game !
Respect the theme and introduce some nice challenges actually.

How many times did I felt  leaving my jumping shoes behind me and I was like "Crap !"
Maybe allow a "reset object to their spawning point" would help people like me. Maybe.. :P

A good mechanics that can be introduced is the drafting. Merge 2 items into one than maybe allow to separate them later on to craft another thing ! Possibilities are endless !
This combine with good puzzles it can become a really good game ! 

Good submission :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing! Did you try using the undo mechanic? It fixes those "crap!" moments! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and cool ideas, definitely noted :)

Submitted(+1)

Oooh ! Didn't about that one. Forget what I said then ;)

I will need to play it again with this undo thing !

To me the movement felt a little too fast, like there needed to be some acceleration before OMGWTF top speed.  the puzzles were fun and some could be cheesed by throwing stuff and catching it like over the forcefield.  overall good job for 2 days work :)

Developer

I agree, movement is too fast. Glad you enjoyed it! Nice job cheesing the forcefield, I'm glad that's there for the people who can pull it off!!
