Cute story, fun little world. Some of the trees in the first level are missing colliders and I was a little confused at first on what I was supposed to be doing, but I figured it out.

Nice job!

I like how snappy the movement feels, but I do think hitting the projectiles feels a little inconsistent and I would like to have more control over the jump height, like with how long I hold the spacebar. I also think missing a projectile is maybe a tad bit too punishing on your score.

Still, it's a fun little game and you did a good job finishing it within the jam time!

A bit easy as it is now, but I can see this being expanded for sure! Nice visuals.

This game has a really cool style, I love the look of the jury. Only thing I'd like is if dialogue moved a little faster.

Pretty satisfying shooting mechanics. I liked how the enemy AI behaved, actively taking cover. That feels different than other games I've played similar to this, which is cool.  Good work!

Interesting mechanics. The orbit physics were pretty cool. Think it could use some balancing, using more than 2 satellites seemed like it didn't work well.  But overall, nice work!

Reminded me of the Super Mario World haunted house levels. Fun vibe. Kinda tough to avoid the ghosts but I did manage to beat it. Wish there was some audio. Nice job though!

Cute game, was hoping there was more, but I loved the writing!

This game is really funny. The intro video was fun and I love the aesthetics in general. Managed to beat it before mom came in on one run, and I don't think I ever successfully hid it from her on my previous runs, but in any case, that was a fun few minutes. Nice work!

Interesting take on the 2 dimension theme. Took me a minute to figure out the mechanics, but made it through pretty easy once I did. I'm sure you could come up with some crazy levels with some more time. The character's voice reminded me of invader zim, which I liked. Good job!

This game is really charming. Reminds me of Flat Stanley. I chuckled a lot hearing the "pop" when you turn back into 3d. Cool puzzles too. Nice work!

Thanks for playing! The way we had the game set up, I was finding it really tough to match the right side's speed to the left side, I do agree it's an issue. I enjoyed the the right side was a little floaty, but when you hit a money jump it can get out of hand. It's definitely the part of our game that I'm least happy with.

But thanks for the feedback! We'll give your game a look as well.

I liked this one a lot! Of all the platformers in this jam, I think this one had the most fun interpretation of the 2 dimensions idea that I've played so far. And the art/animations were great too. Great job!

Wow! This one blew me away. Really cool mechanics and aesthetics. Nailed it dude!

Nice blend of visual novel style + sidescrolling shooter. You guys did a great job! I do think hitting walls hurting you is a little brutal.

Used to play this style of game a lot back in the day, this was a great throwback with a unique look. Nice work!

Fun game, simple mechanic based around the 2 dimensions idea which I appreciated. And the look and feel of the town fit in really well. Good job!

Great little game. Lots of fun! Love that you added leaderboards, makes me want to figure out how to get those working next time they make sense for one of my games.

Cool! I gave it a play. I appreciate that you did something cool with the life in 2d theme, though I will admit I'm a little confused by the mechanic. Would be cool if there was puzzles you had to solve by switching back and forth between 2d and 3d. In this version I felt like I was just switching to 2d very briefly just to reset my timer.

Regardless, good job on the jam. I liked the character model. I'm sure you can take the concept further if you want.

Yes, windows. The terminal shows an error that says missing font. And I don't see any score showing up, so I think that's connected. 

Really impressed you were able to put this together during the jam time. It plays pretty well, it looks really smooth, and I definitely got some Xcom flashbacks when my dudes missed a shot!

One thing I would like is some hotkeys. Switching between my dudes with TAB and selecting their action with a number key would make the experience a lot better.

But still, great job with this one!

I love that this game feels so different than any of the other games I've tried from this jam. Really chill experience. I came so close to getting one of my maple trees over the dirt path, but I couldn't quite make it!

I do think the music could come in a little sooner. The audio is great for this game, and the music fits in perfectly, but I'm afraid some players might stop playing before the music starts, and the music is good enough that maybe if they heard it sooner they'd stick around.

Good work!

Your rar file does not include the data folder which is required to run the game, so I couldn't play it. Let me know if you update it and I'll give it another shot.

The game is running for me, though if I click one of the movement buttons too fast at the beginning, it doesn't change states correctly and I can't do anything.

I see what you were going for with the axis movement, I think there's something there but I don't think it's very obvious what the puzzle is at first. I do think enemy health could be a bit lower, I clicked attack on the ghost for a while and wasn't sure if I'd ever win, and when I finally did I was at barely above half health.

Some cool concepts here though, I think you could hone them into an interesting puzzle/dungeon crawler type game with some more time.  Good job on finishing what you did for the jam!

The game did load for me, but there are still some errors. It's not loading whatever font you're using, I'm assuming to count the balloons you've popped, but I can't see it. The balloons are popping though. I'll leave you a rating.

Fun twist on bubble pop games! Music and sound were great.

Fun game, you took a simple mechanic and executed it really well.

Short and sweet experience. A bit light on mechanics for me, but the art was fun and the screen transition effect was pretty cool.

Great art and a solid tower defense game. Really impressive for a jam game, good job!

I like the look of the character, and the music and footstep sounds make the whole experience pretty zen which I enjoyed. It feels a little slow for a runner and I'm not exactly clear on what the gold and diamonds are doing. But I had fun with it and overall you did a good job!

Cool to see a farming sim in a jam, I'm really impressed with what you were able to put together. I'd suggest making the map smaller and maybe having a minimap. I just walked in one direction as far as I could go to see if there was an edge to the map but I couldn't find one. Definitely easy to get lost. But I do think there is some potential there for a farming sim with 2 dimensions/worlds and I got a taste of that with your game. Good work!

I like this style of game and you nailed the basic mechanics. I enjoyed the bullet hell feeling of the boss fight as well, and your art/animations were well done.  Good job!

Cool aesthetic, I like how the health bar is actually on the character. Some sweet particle effects with the weapons too. I did encounter some bugs. The spiders sometimes seemed dead and were flipped upside down but were actually still alive. Also it seems pretty easy to get outside of the map. Good job though!

Cool mechanic, I think it could use something more like a teleporter or conveyor belt (with a different flavor) or something like that, but the puzzles were well made and I liked the aesthetic. Good job!

Sure, i'll give it a look and a rate! Here's ours:

I did redownload it, the sound makes it a lot more fun! Finally got gold! I'm sure I'm missing a couple trick jumps to get your dev time. I really like this though, if you keep going with it and want playtesters I'm totally down to do it. This is my favorite game from this jam I've played so far for sure.

Great concept, good execution. Stands out from the crowd for sure. I wish I could move around the sheet with something other than the arrow keys so I don't have to move my hands from the home row too much. Typing too fast also feels like it doesn't register sometimes. But those are small critiques for a game made for a jam, well done!

Wish there was sound effects, but I really enjoyed this one! Will keep trying to beat your dev time. I hope you keep working on this one, if you fleshed it out into a full game I would definitely play it.

The art and music came together really well with this game and the story and gameplay tied into the jam theme nicely.
