This game is excellent and already feels like a hidden pulp gem. I really enjoyed the darkness gated exploration and how you push out further into the world by lighting up screens and finding new campsites. That darkness mechanic is implemented very effectively and the visuals looks great!
I really enjoyed this! Intuitive and engaging mechanics and a compelling narrative. The vision stuff is great for Pulp too. Performance isn't perfect but this is a jam game!
Late commenting but this was really impressive and I loved being able to compare and contrast our interpretations that are notably different despite both being traditional dungeon crawlers that are faithful to the original screenshot! The stamina system particularly is a nice interpretation and I can see the potential of it despite the jam limitations.
Posting for posterity, I really like the mixed media concept of this one, especially the co-op multiplayer angle! I remain super impressed by all of the enemy art you managed to cram in to the jam time too. Great stuff!
One of the most fun and flow-inducing uses of the crank yet, movement is intuitive and feels great. An easy recommendation, especially if you like chasing time trial records. Check out the vector dolphin in the settings!
You wouldn't know this was put together quickly for a game jam - this is the best Life's Too Short game yet! It's tight, clear, polished and well worth anyone's time. Technically it's easy to see how this entry benefits from building on the previous, and I also think it has the strongest and best presented premise so far.
I seemed to get stuck after doing everything on the list, but I had fun getting to that point, and I admire the ambition making a "content" game like this in such a short jam!
This is really impressive and feels like it has all of the elements of a full game already "set in stone"! Novel puzzle platforming and a great take on the theme. I found the crank to be of limited use and wonder if using it to "rewind" the game would be a fun mechanic for those situations where I was right at the end of a level and then messed up placing a final jump.
Congratulations on making your first game, you should be really proud! Love the grim reaper take on the theme (of course!) and the dual concern of the gameplay.
I'm a big fan of the vertical orientation and crank controls! Fun if a little easy - maybe hazards to avoid would help mix it up and help with the theme?
A nice and simple crank-and-shoot arcade game! Adding more of a theme, especially in the art, would increase the appeal and maybe help make clearer the connection to the jam theme.
Funny, great presentation, and a very creative concept! The core loop works really well, my only niggle was working out how to reach hazards that spawned right on top of the player.
This is excellent - satisfying to play, excellent use of the crank, and exactly on brief. The art brings it all together into something that feels much more polished than a weekend jam game! I'm definitely interested in seeing this built out into a fuller experience. Well done!
