It's got this backrooms-type-of-vibe to it. It downed a bunch of smiley faces with, what I assume, was a crow bar but couldn't really figure out if there was something else I was supposed to be doing. Thanks for the submission!

I had a hard time getting past the start menu. I'm playing on an ultrawide screen, so there could be some problem with the anchoring of the UI elements? I had to click blind on the side of my screen and finally hit the start game button.
I liked the gravity system the planets had and it was fun to go explore but once I died, the distances felt a bit long when you had to make the trip again. Anyway, once I saw the enemy, it got a genuine "oh shit" out of me. That being said, the enemy was pretty easy to dodge.
I wasn't entirely sure what I was supposed to do, and once I died the second time, I couldn't bring myself to go explore the planets a third time since that would've forced me to make the flight once again.
Greetings fellow devs!
So, the title spells it out pretty much :D play my game and I'll play yours and leave a comment. Of course if there's a ton of games to play, I might not have the time, but I'll try.
Here's the game I made with our team of 3 called PIPE DREAM; it's a horror dungeon crawler where you collect lost data inside a computer program possessed by a virus.

Enjoy Paradigm Island! If you want to support us, go wishlist the game on Steam or leave a comment! ^^
I think the character creation tool is a genius idea and it was fun to see my monstrosities in action! The graphics are also top-notch *clap*
I know it's a game jam game and there's not enough time to polish everything, but if you decide to develop it further, some floating damage text and sound effects for the attacks could enhance the experience! A sound effect and text to tell whose turn it is could also be nice! :)
For me, the music felt a bit too intense for the game's feel, but of course, that comes down to taste.
Overall, great job; you got a lot done in a week!
Here's our game The tangled Marsh! Give it a try :) https://itch.io/jam/scream-jam-2024/rate/3044789
