Well this was fun. Kept the spirit of the game and added to it nicely.

If something I hoped it was possible to get some kind of advantage if you figured out a certain chest related mystery (I found it kinda obvious), but I didn't find a way to not catch her.

Anyways, good job!

I'd put this as one of my two favorites from the jam, valid entries or not.

I'd also play the shit out of a longer version of this :]

The way I figured it out is that if it says it in plural, it means twice. Other than that it's just the order mentioned.

I like the premise, but honestly I'm not sure if I'm missing something or if it just needs more time. Normal enemies just keeps multiplying and I have no idea what's going on with the human enemies. Randomly got caught for no reason.

So yeah, could be fun. Art was nice tho.

Nice art, good variation, enjoyable overall. Wouldn't mind coming back to something similar with more time behind it.

Fun concept, neat animations. One of those games I'd rather come back to later with more content/variation. Good job!

I like the idea of Ape Escape but with things I actually want to catch, so points for the idea. It's not there yet, but I wouldn't mind seeing you improve for the next jam.

Personally I'm a big fan of the parry. Sure, it confused me a bit at first that it could hit despite feeling like a hit, but then it felt more like a fail right on the edge of success. Definitely felt that dopamine when it just managed to return! Please don't change it if you make more (although difficulty settings might be needed for some).

If this is what you can accomplish in a week I shudder to think of what you could do with more time! Lo and behold, you made a mod for Didnapper 2, definitely checking that out after I'm done with the jam entries.

Amazing game. Loved the music, art, story, gameplay. I need more than this :D

Really well made! One of my favorites so far with the creative level design and quality animations/graphics.

Definitely the game I was the most dedicated to so far! Could use some polish here and there, but it made me go all "I can beat that" on it, so that's good. Also fit the theme of the jam well.

Yes, I did tie up everyone I saw. No, it wasn't an accident.

I could close it with escape (if you're not on a phone I guess), but yeah, probably need to be able to click outside or at an X in the corner.

More bondage and npc toys? Amazing update! <3

Impressive start to the game! I'm already interested so I better ask about this bug immediately.
When I click on save here... (In Browser: Save icon at slot) 

...I get this popup (prompt() is and will not be supported.. Aborting.)

I'm on PC and I'm using the itchio browser (launched from the official itch app). Exporting/importing seems to work fine, but I've never had an issue with using the save slots before in similar games.

Loved the demo! Just my kind of game.

The grammar/writing is a bit rough, but understandable. Story is interesting enough. The art is probably my favorite part although it varies a bit in quality.

Looking forward to more!

I really enjoy these more technical posts, thanks for writing this!

Hoping for a bright future, continuing the legacy of Flynn and one of my favorite adult games ever!

Some really good ideas for a platformer here and interesting use of restrictions. Some more time in the oven and it could be really fun.

Once again bringing one of the most interesting games to these gamejams!

Loved the usage of bondage and the connected theme. Probably the best idea I've seen so far.
I think the slow speed works in a short demo, but for a longer experience it probably needs some quality of life in that area.

Great job again.

Tip for new players: You can slow down the game speed in the settings.

Might be my favorite game of the jam so far. Some QoL, more content, a tutorial and building on the "combat" (like backpack upgrades and so on) and this game could be a real hit.

It's a bit too jumpy with what's going on right now, with how the restraints aren't on for long (and I slowed down the game), but I enjoyed it a lot. Makes me want to try backpack battles myself.

(Very) short but sweet game. I'm imagining some kind of adventure game with a story here.

Still one of my favorite artists so the art being great doesn't surprise me.

A bit disappointed that it's so similar in assets to your other games, but the eye spy part was refreshing. The bondage isn't doing much for the gameplay which is a shame, but the connected theme is there story-wise at least.

Anyways, good job!

One of the submissions I wouldn't mind coming back to after the jam is over.

Well that was brutal :D

Good job on the presentation and how it controls. Impressive work in such a short time!
My issues with it were mostly balance related like most people said, but at least you didn't need to completely restart.

First time I've played a bullet hell as two players. Reminded me of that minigame with the guards in Nintendo Land.
Anyways, good job. A bit chaotic patterns at times, but interesting ideas with the kissing and color shielding.

Presentation is great, really good job there. Unfortunately there isn't much gameplay going on, but it made me curious on how it would work with more time.

Interesting take on a bondage TD and I wouldn't mind seeing a more fleshed out version even though it isn't my favorite genre.

My favorite from my first queue. Somewhat amusing story, some nice art (although I personally wasn't interested in the guys), good music and presentation.

Main issue was having an Osu!-like without having it timed to the music, but good job nevertheless!

As a final thing, can you tick in the operative system boxes for the uploaded files so the itch app can recognize them? I'm not sure if it works for .zip files, but it might.

Just read the news. I just want you to know that this was one of my favorite adult games out there.

As an alternate path, if you ever want to open source the game there are probably plenty of people that are willing to contribute. 

Whatever decision you make, I hope the best for your health and that you guys know how much we love this game <3

I looked around a bit and tested on one of my own projects. I think it's because you didn't tick the checkboxes for what OS it's for. On your file it doesn't have the Windows logo next to it like other files I've seen have.

Worth a shot maybe? :D

Seems the itch app can't recognize the download files. Something you can take a look at? :)

Oh damn, a Natamin game I haven't played? I'm guessing I'm in for a good time!

Nothing flashy or visual? Having lairs, roaming NPCs and things like that sounds awesome to me!

Really looking forward to this :D

First off, I haven't tried any updates since the jam, so keep that in mind.

Anyways, I'm a bit 50/50 on whether I think it would fit as a longer experience.
I think the production quality was high and I enjoyed it, but the concept could use some changes if it's a longer experience.

Unlike a normal metroidvania where you constantly get stronger, a bondage themed metroidvania stops being bondage themed if you remove all the restraints. You already mentioned having some ideas, so I'm sure you've already thought about this.

Essentially it either needs some kind of progress/power-up that still incorporates the theme (tying up enemies instead?), or being put in new situations with new mechanics (leaning a bit more into the puzzle part of it all).

Just my two cents. The more bondage themed games the better! 

Huh, I also had no idea you could upload from that engine like this.

Anyways, was an amusing read and a fun way of doing tetris. I was worried how you would handle row clears, but crisis averted 😅

Haha, based on the "get cash but be chased by a deadly snail forever" talk? Fun idea and good job on your first game!

Metroidvania + Bondage = My kinda game!

Some interesting ideas like the ladder climbing in here and cute art.
