Welcome to the poetic universe of NeJ. A snowy forest that speaks of friendship, music, silence and mystery.
In this puzzle adventure you will meet a young puppy with whom you will live an incredible story, which begins in the ordinary to open on the fantastic.

To save yourself from the dangers of the forest, you will have to go deep into your soul, transform yourself and become stronger, at the risk of becoming a monster in the eyes of others. Through the eyes of the protagonist, the themes of loneliness, friendship and self-defense are explored.

NeJ is a serene and evocative experience without any text, brought to life through the symbiosis of expressive hand-drawn graphics and a poignant original soundtrack.
Infiltration sequences, small puzzles, combat and mini-games punctuate this emotional journey.


NeJ is the first commercial project of solo developer Ben Lega, a mechanical engineer by training. Accompanied on music by Nowe Reginald, this project is their love letter to the video game medium.

Lol this is actually pretty fun :D I had a 3min long fight that was super tense

I use krita! There are a lot of free brushes that allow you to make amazing art very easily :)

A very nice and intriguing game !

I love how the color progression and the music create this unsettling atmosphere, it works really well.

I'm also curious, how did you do that nice 2.5d effect ? :)

Cheers and congrats on the game !

Feel free to check my own entry for the jam, I'm curious to hear your thoughts :)

Such a cool game! This is very polished and looks awesome :)

Feel free to check my own entry for the jam <3

A nice take on this classic genre :) 

I especially love the artstyle, simple yet so effective thanks to this limited color palette !

The shape of the heart makes it sometimes hard to precisely control the ball, but I had a blast playing the game :)

Cheers & congrats on the game !

A cool game ! The heart mechanic to switch the level works really well :)

Maybe the combat could be a bit more juicy and fast-paced, but this is still a puzzle game in the end!

Good job on the game, I had a blast ! :)

What a lovely game! I loved the esthetic: the bouncy animations and the electronic music. It all fits so well together.

And I laughed so hard at the ha-ha moment when you get caught x)

Super cool game! Congrats <3

The design of the enemies are scary as f*** :D With the sound design it really sends a chill down your spine when they chase you down ..

I wished the character had more health so that the heartbeat variation could be more intense.

A very cool game ! Cheers and congrats :)

A very cool little game, a bit rough around the edges but the idea is really fun ! :)

The art of the character is super well done !

Cheers and congrats on the game, hope you will get a chance to release a final version <3

Wow impressive and super original work !

It's really trippy to play a video game with your eyes closed, you actually make up your own visuals :D 

This is really good idea you got there, I only think that the controls could be easier to avoid head bangings, but other than that, 10/10 !

Congrats on the game :)

Lovely game :D The art is super cute and works well together.

Feel free to check my own entry for the jam <3

The platforming is really great and the character is soo cute hahah :D

I just wished there were more levels !

Cheers and congrats on the game !

Wow man what a great game ! Its fantastic the atmosphere you manage to create with so little.. 

The moments hit hard and are really emotionally impacting, I really hope you continue the game after the jam ! The world setting is beautifull and the dialogues are super.

Ps: I couldn't find the blue guy after I gave him the flower and he let it go, any hint ? :)

Cheers and congrats on the game! Loved it

Its crazy that such a subtle change in the game is sufficient to make me play the same level over and over :D Maybe theres a lesson to be learnt here ?

Great job on the game!

I enjoyed a lot the experience :)

The story that you tell really brings the game to another dimension and pushes the player to stick to hear the rest, like little cliffhangers !

Congrats on the game!

Cheers

Thank you for the review Bastian! I had a blast watching you play the game :D

The color change in a simple transition shader, the same as for a circular in-out black screen when you go through a door in many games.

Then I just give this shader a texture that's made with a watercolor brush, and ta-da ! :D As simple as that


Thanks! I will check it out!

Thank you ! It means a lot :)
