Great, completed game! Gameplay is amazing, you need to get through the tutorials, but as you figure out how to play it's a sweet spot regarding difficulty and offers pleasant smooth gameplay focusing on balanced and reactive resource management. With time it's getting more and more difficult, so it's a great challenge. I love the art style, it's beautiful, music is great as well!
One of the most creative gameplay here! I really love the idea on the gameplay - you definitely need to make the caterpillar spinning, to get up, but because you are climbing up a moving body of a human - you can utilise the best moments to jump and fly higher! Great gameplay. And visuals and audio is fitting the overall feel of the game ;)
Very nice idea and challengine puzzles! I would improve the visibility of the selected character. The area on which you can click to select it is small, so I ended up deselecting the character sometimes. It would be maybe nice with "Tab" or other key to switch between characters? Gameplay might be way faster then ;)
The theme of the #MadeWithDefold Jam 2024 is "ONE TOO MANY"!
It can be interpreted as "Ooops, one too many!", one additional feature that affects the game, something overflown, overpowered, exaggereted. Players might face situations where having "one too many" of something leads to unexpected consequences, e.g. taking "one too many" items might slow/affect/change the character. The player might be tasked with balancing items, elements or forces, and adding one too many could disrupt the balance. The narrative could involve a protagonist who indulges in one too many of something. "One too many" could refer to an overpopulated world where resources are e.g. scarce, could explore themes of consumerism and excess. I believe there are many, many possible ideas and probably even... one too many! ^^
We're counting on your imagination! ;)
P.S. The image below is from what the idea was born! :D

Hello!
Event will take place on Defold's Discord on 30. August 2024 at 3:00 PM (GMT+2):

As you may noticed, we have now scheduled two amazing Q&A sessions with Poki and Defold teams!
To be prepared, when the time comes - think of the questions you would like to ask them after their short presentation. If you can come up with some already - write them below, on Discord in #game-jams or Defold forum!
Hello!
Thank you for joing the jam! Some questions arose about the currently proposed split of the jam in two different structures. What do you think about such idea? Or do you think it's better to make one consolidated?
Please, leave your vote here:

I'm trying to revive the topic that was archived here: https://itch.io/t/3511703/deviceorientationevent-requires-magnetometer-permissio... Since I'm trying to run a HTML5 application hosted on itch.io and want to get all permisions (it works on Android now, but doesn't work on iOS, so I'm looking for any solution, perhaps this could be an issue).
I just wanted to write a Direct Message for you, so that I can give you the reward for taking the 5th place in the Game Idea Jam! But since (waaay too much) time passed and I messed it, please, let me know at witchcrafter.rpg@gmail.com which game you would like to have as a reward! :D The titles left in the pool are: Chivalry II, Midnight Fight Express, Twin Mirror, Trek to Yomi, Back 4 Blood, Fable Anniversary, The Callisto Protocol
Results are here: https://itch.io/jam/generated-idea-game-jam/results
Congratulations to the winners and to all the participants to submitted the game - you already won the struggle with starting/making a prototype/game! 🎉
I will contact the winners one by one, and because I took 4th place (which I'm very thankful for!) I can't give myself a medal and there will be winners up to the 6th place! It will really help me a ton, if your game took place 1-6th, please reach me out on Discord (PawelJarosz#5545), X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/pawel_developer or Telegram, so that I will have a contact to you and write to you on your turn on choosing the game prize from the pool of available ones ;)
Thank you very much!
Best Regards,
Paweł
P.S. In August/September I will be running another game jam: annual community #MadeWithDefold Jam 2024 - if you are interested in checking out Defold game engine, I invite you to the Jam page (under construction yet):

It's a really nuanced game with hard mechanics, but given enough time it has so many cool ideas, it can turn into a nice platformer with puzzles! The artstyle is unique and charming and somehow you make it pretty compatible with the crazy generated idea :D (I made the generator and I had to make a racer about a fish wanting to be a game developer in subatomic world, so I know what I'm saying xD)
I like this game very much! It has nice and simple mechanics (with a weird bug/feature, where you can "jump" on wall and climb up by holding up - so I felt like Spider-man a bit :D), Levels are nicely designed. Mirrors are reflecting bullets unexpectedly, it's not like in real world :D But the intro - it was cool and it even have voice over! Congratulations on making such a great game for a game jam ;)
