I already love minesweeper so much, but this feels like a direct sequel to it. Not only did the pliers address my biggest problem with minesweeper (sometimes there are situations where its impossible to determine where the mines are and have to guess, but the pliers add a safety net for that), but the new goopiness mechanic really changes up how i think about the game in an amazing way. As someone who got bored of regular minesweeper because I have all the muscle memory so i just go through it very quickly, this made it feel like i was playing minesweeper again for the first time. It's crazy that you were able to come up with and implement all this in such a short time, especially considering this just might be my favorite version of minesweeper ever.
I really enjoyed the game so i wanted to give it another attempt and fell for the same bug again. If this bug ever gets fixed after the jam or something I would love to play this game just for fun.
This is by far the most fun game I've played for this jam. It starts out making me think it was gonna be a slog to go through, but with the upgrades, you have a lot of control and it suddenly becomes super enjoyable! The size of the map and the tiling and art are very impressive, especially for being made in only a week. The friction on the surfaces is a very nice touch and while unrealistic, it makes it more fun and less frustrating because otherwise it would feel too slippery and waiting for the bug to stop would take more time. I wasn't able to get to the third upgrade because when i used the heavy ability at one of the big strawberries the game got softlocked and there was seemingly no way to restart without restarting the entire game, but fixing a bug like this is definitely not expected considering the tight timeframe and you did an absolutely outstanding job!
This game is nearly purrfect as the title implies. The art is absolutely stunning and the story is very very nice and comforting. I really liked the gameplay loop, with the only problem being that stats just did not upgrade at all, and it was unclear why i couldnt upgrade or what the end goal even was (i got to the end by accident), but other than that is is an insanely solid experience!
Honestly very enjoyable gameplay loop once you get used to it. I also really loved the visuals. Only problem was the ui was a bit confusing and i beat the game still not figuring out where my current currency count is, or if its even displayed anywhere at all.
This is insanely well polished for a game jam game! The writing is fantastic and all the visuals and music fit together very well. Very well designed gameplay loop and tutorial.
Thanks! I thought it would be simpler to make it so that the controls are sort of mirrored, but maybe your idea is not so bad. I'm hoping I can improve on this in some sort of patch eventually, but no promises. I'm glad you at least enjoyed the aspects I'm happy with.
This game is such a vibe. The adaptive music is fantastic and I love how objects would never fall out of the wheelbarrow. The ps1 wobbliness is also an amazing touch. I can tell this was made by an expert.
Thank you so much! I'm probably gonna add some sound in a post-jam patch, though my music making skills are abysmal so i dont think it would add much. I'm super glad you enjoyed it though!
Absolutely amazing work. I love the title screen and the puzzles were mostly easy but still very clever. My only gripe is that I initially thought the skip button on the dialogue would skip the entire scene and not just advance the text, and the introduction was much longer than the actual game too.
Thank you so much! I'm especially glad you liked the music and honestly thought I might have made it too difficult or something. As for sound, I do agree that music and sounds are super important, though I didn't have enough time to implement them(I actually made 2 really bad songs but didn't have the time to actually put them into code). Your game was also fantastic :)
I really like the fact that you put a cutscene in this game. It sounds like a lot of work went into this. The enemy ai is also very cool; it gives the game a good amount of challenge. The way you can just stack the speed increase forever until you hit a rock made this super fun. I also really like the title screen animation
I fixed it, thank you so much for letting me know about this! I thought this was only a problem with browsers since it worked perfectly fine on my laptop, so I couldn't have fixed it without your advice. The game is somewhat playable but also very unpolished, but I hope you have fun anyway :)
Absolutely fantastic game! The visuals are amazing, no clue how you did that in two weeks. Level design and mechanics are super creative. I died a lot, but I think its mostly my fault for not paying attention to the way the game teaches gameplay mechanics. Its clever, but maybe it doesn't let players process the information being conveyed. The blue spikes, for example, were taught by the fact that you trampolined into them by necessity, but my stupid brain thought that I didn't even hit those spikes, so I didn't really realize that they are safe until it was too late. Same with the red floor. I thought that the enemies that died to the red floor were more to do with the button I just pressed rather than the floor being red. I still think these were extremely clever though. The music was awesome and gave off a teenage mutant ninja turtles style, and the 'virtual' joke complimented that style very well. I love the fact that there are multiple control schemes and they are taught in a non-obstructive way.
Thank you so much for all this feedback! This helps a lot! I'm so happy you liked the animation, that was my favorite part to make. Also you are the very first person to beat the game, which I appreciate but even my family members couldn't get past the first difficult jump, so I'll definitely prioritize accessibility a lot more from now on. I thought I could get away with something like celeste, but I probably should have expanded the move set a bit, increased the acceleration maybe, and made the game easier. To be honest the aberration theme is a bit vague and loose, but the title of the game comes from an actual scientific term which I don't fully understand myself but it has to do with how when calculating the velocity of a star, its angle might be slightly off from what we see because of how light travels or something, so i made up a little story about the scientists being stupid and not knowing about that, which is why a star is about to crash into the planet. I learned a lot from this and you contributed a ton to that, so again, thank you so much for your feedback!
Apparently this means your pc isn't compatible for some reason, or that the problem is on your end (idk how to solve it unfortunately, sorry) especially if this error also happens with other games or programs. I absolutely loved your game by the way!
This game is insanely well made. I loved the intro (the ace attorney music was a nice touch), the humor and story, the subtle lighting and shadows, the clever gameplay, even the animation was top notch honestly. With how fleshed out this is, it's honestly a bit hard to believe this was only made in 2 weeks. The mouse controls were also an awesome design choice.
Thanks! I really should've balanced the difficulty better, especially since i myself died a good amount. The entire stage was actually pretty much made on the last day tbh so its very rushed. Thanks for the feedback!
