itch.io

I think it is close! There are a couple things that aren't quite selling the atmosphere for me. 

I think the textures for paper is a little too clean (the spiral bound white page at 31 seconds, and the page at 1:15). Since you are in a mine I would expect them to be a little grungier. 

I like the presentation of the text at 43 seconds a lot better, the white text + font + black background looks good, and gives a lot of kinda creepy/mystery vibes.

It is sort of hard for me to put my finger on it, but something about the music and sound design feels a little off. Something about the audio makes it feel like I am outside, rather than in a cave. I think maybe the bat sounds are too high pitched? Maybe a low pass filter on the music and sfx would help here. Maybe footstep sounds would help too?

Sounds effects for the UI/menus would be good as well (sfx for switching what is highlighted, and selecting options). When you pick up the bandages at 58 seconds the UI looks good, but some sounds might help communicate some vibes. Even just beeps and bloops would help give that action some weight

I hope that doesnt come across as too critical! Like I said I think it is close, but some little tweaks might help it shine

Thank you! I really appreciate it

This was very pleasant to play. The cow and the gardener really added a lot to the vibes

Hi there, thanks for playing! In order to win you need to escort your friend ( a cat!) from the Lobby back up to the roof.

Haha thats a good way to put it, thank you for the comment and thank you for playing!

yes henlo would you please pick a card!!

This looks really good, It looks a like a pyramid view from above. Thank you for playing!

:)

This was great! First half really triggered my fight or flight response for some reason, but I persevered and really enjoyed the rest of it. I love the Titanic movie and this really stirred up some of those Titanic feelings.

Thanks! I used Godot

Thanks for playing! When you are flying in the cloud, if you collide with a jellyfish it destroys the jellyfish, so you can use it to clean up a bit if there are too many.

I probably should have made it just respawn you in the boat afterward but it was faster/easier to just make you die 

Nice job, this was cool. Working primarily with shaders sounds like a fun challenge. I couldn't figure out the boat repair puzzle though - any tips on that?

Thanks for playing! I am glad you made it to the end

<3

This was very pleasant and chill. I love the rounded corners on the screen, it makes it feel like a postcard. <3

Thank you, I really appreciate it!

The ending sound is amazing. The half pipe is amazing. All just so good

The checkbox at the top is so funny, I played several games before I noticed it

Hey there thanks for playing!

I agree with your point about the controls, there are a lot of overlapping actions and its not really clear what does what.

I think jump needs to be be kept a separate key otherwise it conflicts with ladder climbing/ladder mounting. But I should at least mention it in the tutorial.

S/down should allow you to pick up and drop pots, but I have been having some issues with the tutorial section causing that to get bugged. Hopefully should have it fixed today/tomorrow.

I think I need to do a bit more testing to make sure all the routes are passable. Thank you for playing, I appreciate the feedback!

This was cool! I liked the writing.Having to delete messages to see older ones was surprisingly emotional. I remember on older phones having to clear up space by picking and choosing which text messages to erase :*(

Ahh I just realized I left in a bit of code that increases your speed every time you bounce, I am guessing you built up enough speed to phase through the walls... should be fixed now though.

Thank you for playing and I am  glad you enjoyed the seascape :)

This was cool! Thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed exploring the environment

(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

whats up dog

Nice job! Its pretty difficult to wrap my head around what is happening spatially but this is a super cool concept. Would be cool as a physical toy as well

This is a pleasant little game! It took me a couple tries to figure out the movement but once I got the hang of it it felt very intuitive. I have never seen one button movement quite like that before, nice job! 

Wow nice job -this idea went a lot further than I expected it to! 

Very difficult as well - I managed to get as far as this level:

There was one level in particular that I thought was really clever - the one where the portal is directly below you but there are ~5 floors of button blocks that you have to open. I thought I had to send 2 orbs with a specific timing gap, but had a nice "a - ha" moment when I realized the solution.

I thought the jumping felt a little/slow or unresponsive, and that there was a small delay between the button press and shooting an orb. But since the levels are designed to be played as-is it didn't bother me too much.

One very small gripe is that there should be some kind of level intro text - just a number would be fine. There is a a level I encountered about halfway through my play that looked similar to the first level, and I thought that the game had looped back to level 1.  I almost closed game because I thought I had beat it. Something like "Level 12" at the start would let me know that I am looking at a new challenge.

Anyways - nice work! I really enjoyed this

I had the same experience as Broquaint - the first level took me quite a few tries, but then I was able to get to Grandmaster (and beat it!) without too much trouble.

This is a great successor to Purple Paths,  the two game  feel very cohesive even though they have completely different approaches to puzzle-ing.

Also I think I spotted a tiny eggplant (!?!) but I cut the grass to quickly to get a good look at it.

Thanks for submitting - I enjoyed reading your plans for what else to add to the game. Its a cool idea and I can  see a ton of potential in terms of stacking objects and having different arrangements of platforms and pulleys. Kind of like a Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime  type thing where platforms and pulleys are a "vehicle" that you have to pilot. 

Also props on getting moving platforms to work, those are tricky!

woops - I shortened the week to two days to test the End of Week screen and I guess I never put it back : (.

For everything else I completely agree.  I wanted the interface to be essentially painless, and then use the couriers shortcomings to create unforeseen problems. I didn't end up having time to do either of those things really,  but it is something I plan to go back to eventually.

Thanks for playing and for the feedback!

It should be working now. I moved the "X" to the other side of the window.

Oh is this the issue - the itch text is covering the screen and preventing you from clicking the x? If this is the case, playing in full screen should work for now, and I will upload a fix shortly.

Hello, thanks for playing! Which x button isn't working? I should be able to fix it this weekend.

I just wanted to go ahead and agree with everyone else that this is hilarious and charming. Also the collage-art is fantastic. Did you source the images from anywhere in particular?

Ahh you beat me to it, I was gonna mention the Getting over It thing! I still managed to fall back to the beginning a few times, I think it was just the right amount of frustrating.  

A charming delivery game. I had a bit of trouble reading the numbers/address as they zipped past, and the "help robots" text was a little to fast for me to react to properly - but the zipping itself felt great.  Big fan of the architecture as well.

So glad to see the smiley character from Void Seeker make another appearance :D
 

This is a very pleasant sandbox.  I didn't really try to plan out any specific actions, but felt very content to wire up the robots randomly and watch them work.  I think if this was ever so slightly more fleshed out it could work as an Orb Farm-esque second monitor idle game. Nice work!

I watched my girlfriend play this for almost an hour. Even though its quite empty there's something very suspenseful about looking for water and new items. I think we ended up getting the pick, knife, dousing rod,  gold dubloons,  shovel, eggplant, and encountered the silent nomad. 

At one point a cactus spawned on top of a disturbed ground/x marks the spot and we got extremely exited thinking it was something new. We did not end up finding an ending but had a very pleasant time.  

Great  atmosphere and animations, would love to see this fleshed out a bit more but I appreciate the simplicity as is.
