Best Game I played in the jam so far :)

Cool spin on the Undertale combat. Level 5 is absolutely brutal, I would love to try it again without having to replay the first 4 levels.
I found it interesting that extending turns also extends Lilith's attack, so it's a double edged sword... but it's absolutely necessary on later levels.

With a few more bosses and a bit of story, I could see myself buying a game like this.

I beat the game thinking that the pit traps were visible and the spike traps were not.
I though the intention of the game was for it to be a trial-and-error and remember your mistakes type of rage game.

After seeing the comments here about the "subtle traps", I went back and understood how to spot them...
I hate you, but it's my fault 🙃

I got the three abilities, found a secret crystal... and that's about it. I am stuck .-. 
Too bad, the game seems charming, but I feel like it's missing a difficulty progression, or a couple more levels to teach you how to overcome simple obstacles.

I think the smartest thing this game does is giving you a limited resource to use for shooting, which means you can't just spam left click.

On the other hand, the level design is somewhat confusing, it's not clear where you can go and where you can't.

Thanks for the insightful comments! :)
(yeah - we're never submitting that late again haha)

Grazie mille per il feedback! Stiamo cercando di capire il problema con il capanno, con i prossimi fix lo sistemeremo sicuramente :)
Molto strana la mancanza di suoni e il tasto per il diario  (tasto TAB) invece. Per caso hai un setup particolare per l'audio del PC?

Grazie di aver provato il gioco! Sicuramente ci sono delle cose da fixare, grazie al tuo video già abbiamo notato il diario non funzionare nel modo corretto e l'abbiamo fixato :)

Nope, squatting is not in the game :| the waterfall house is a known issue, we'll fix it soon.
Thanks a lot for checking out the game and reporting this!

We didn't either, it took us by surprise haha
Music is actually from this super talented composer OB-LIX (https://pixabay.com/users/ob-lix-17147719/), very cool stuff.

Glad you enjoyed it!

We had a bunch of dialogue lines between the hammer and the bard that explained level-by-level all the mechanics, sadly we found out super late that they didn't work on the web player and had to cut them out, RIP tutorial

Glad you had fun!

Very straight-forward, it was fun playing through this prototype. The final boss definitely had me interested.
Nice job!

Thanks a lot for playing!

It was our first time doing a point and click type of game, some design choices are pretty questionable haha but I'm super glad that you enjoyed it!
Next time we'll definitely focus on the feeling of "watch out, something just happened!". And a hint system, that can help too haha

Thanks for the super nice and constructive feedback!

Thank you for your kind comment! The hint for the Vinegar is the first part of the poem in the Sulfur book in the library ;)
I'm really curious about your bug report.. Can you remember if you tried to close the book with Q / right click?

Thank you! And yeah, we're talking about potentially implementing a "hint" mechanic after the jam :)

I think we made the key too hard to spot .-. it's located...

Hey I am sorry to hear about your issues with getting the game to run on browser. I am here to report that unfortunately your link leads me to a blank page (see screenshot) :/

 

Thank your for the very nice comment! It sounds like maybe you didn't manage to open the chest? :P

Thank you so much for playing our game, it means a lot!  Very glad you enjoyed the atmosphere and the vibes of despair, seems like we got that right :D

We'll take the feedback to make our next games better and better, so thanks a lot for the help!

THANK YOU!

IT'S PIZZA (in a) TOWER!
