Wow! Thanks so much for getting us to the big 20!

We really wanted to create a puzzle game where the player works out the rules themselves. We tried to build up the puzzles in a way that made that process intuitive. Although we definitely should have included controls!

Although we looked at Escher’s impossible geometry as an option we were really inspired by his candle mirror piece. The idea of mirrors showing something different to the real world really struck a chord with us. 

There is still a lot to explore with this concept so we are definitely going to look into expanding it after the jam.

Thanks so much for your review!

Thanks a lot for giving it a go. I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for giving it a go, I’m really glad you enjoyed it! As many people seem to like the game we are thinking of improving it and extending it into a full release. Thanks for the suggestion.

I loved your game! Please have a look at Mirage if you have time: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1419289

Thanks for giving it a go. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks! I'm glad we managed to get the difficulty level just about right. 

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for giving it a play. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for giving the game a go. I'm glad you enjoyed it. We really wanted to focus on a single concept and expand from there. I'm glad that came across and we got the difficulty level right. Thanks for reviewing.

Thanks for trying the game out. I'm glad you found the doors satisfying (It's one of the things I'm most proud of). The player controller was something we didn't really have time to perfect, but we will definitely make sure to focus on it in future. Thanks for your feedback.

Thanks a lot for giving it a go. We had a lot of issues with getting the mirrors to reflect things clearly whilst still looking like mirrors and not flat images. Glad you enjoyed it anyway.

Really loved this! The graphics were great, the game play was smooth and really addictive. And I finally managed level 5! Brilliant!

Please give Mirage a try if you have time: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1419289

Very eerie game. I was confused about what my goal was, so it kind of felt like I was wondering around aimlessly. Loved the atmosphere and the holy grail reference! Nicely done. 

Fun game, I found it very tricky to control the cat, especially with the big changes in momentum. Really liked the graphics. Good job.

Fun little game. Found clicking on the labels for interaction a bit difficult, maybe assigning keys would have made it a bit easier? The last level made me laugh. Good Job!

Unfortunately the game didn't run very well on my browser, but what I did manage to play was very cool. I liked the surreal feel of it and the spotlight effect was very cool. Good job!

Hi all, 

Just wanted to shout out some of the games I've played so far to give them some publicity.

Speedy seer - An insanely hectic 3D platformer. The heart pumping soundtrack really puts on the pressure. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1418432

Blackout - A creepy 2D pixel game  about searching through a dark basement. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1419215

Mostly Harmless - A beautifully written and at times hilarious choose your own adventure visual novel. Loved the references in this. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1420348

The Golden Banana - Another choose your own adventure, this time with audio clips! A really novel idea for a game with a very clever ending. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1411604

Sheriff Rick's Shootout - A wild western gun range which isn't quite what it appears. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1416175

Alone in the snow - A gorgeous looking puzzle/memory game. Lots of trial and error needed for this one. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1412601

Mirage Survivor - A 2D platformer in which you need to decide whether to spend your resources on yourself or your ticket out of the desert. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1417834

Intuition - A simple maze game with a twist. A nice relaxing puzzle game. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1414555

Illusive - A 2D puzzle platformer about an unfortunate robot and an aggressive scientist. I am a filthy casual! https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1419206

In my head - A beautiful 2D platformer with minimalistic graphics and a lovely soundtrack. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1418601

All these games are at less than 20 reviews, so I hope this helps them get there. Have you discovered any gems that need a bit more recognition? Please share!

Very fun little game although a lot of reading required straight off the bat. Love the music choice and art style. Great job!

Really well done. I really liked the old gun range aesthetic And the later sections were really unnerving. An interesting idea created well. My only comment might be that the text was somewhat difficult to read sometimes.

Very fun game. Lovely graphics and a great soundtrack. Good job!

Really enjoyed this! I love choose your own adventure games and the way you achieved it was really clever. Well done!

The walk animation was great! It made me laugh. The platforming was a bit frustrating, especially when you stick to the walls. I liked the music though. Good job.

Thanks a lot! I'll go and look at yours now. The concept seems interesting.

Thanks for checking it out. The doors took ages so I'm glad you liked them!

Thanks! Balancing the difficulty was something we focussed on. I'm glad it worked.

That's very kind of you! I'm glad you liked it.

I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for the great feedback. We'll definitely keep that in mind for next time. 

Thanks a lot for giving it a go and leaving feedback. I'll definitely be sure to include that next time. 

It's really funny, made me smile. The voice over is really well done and the humour is spot on!

Thank you very much! I've given you a rating on your game too!

Very sweet little game. I really enjoyed the music choice. Nicely done.

Very fun little game. Graphics were excellent.  

Very cool little game. I'll admit I did play on filthy casual mode though! If you fancy playing a puzzle game yourself please check out Mirage and let me know what you think: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1419289

Very cool concept. The movement locations were a little faint but once I understood what I was doing I got really engaged with it. The ending was a little abrupt, but a good twist. 

Played all the way to the end. Although you clearly had a bunch of other ideas to add, don't underestimate what you've managed to do. It was a lovely relaxing experience. The audio choice was great. The only disappointment was the cake... Well done!
