hey. awesome feedback and you're totally right. I should've put a little more room for trial-and-error or as you say, "brute-force", in my levels. I will definitely consider it in my future jams :)
Really unique and immersive experience. Great job guys. Loved the gradual addition to the music. I got surprised a how much layers are there in a single music :)
I totally get what you are trying to say and I deeply appreciate your suggestions. I have some ideas to make challenges more intuitive.
It was my first participation in GMTK game jam and I learned something that I didnt think about it too much before. It's the fact that jam's players attention span to my game will be very very short. Actually much shorter than I thought.
when you design a puzzle game, you would like to show players the potential and depth of its mechanics. so you design some levels with other abilities and bring them up relatively soon, so it fits the average attention span of the players.
but meanwhile, the difficulty curve must remain smooth too.
I realized finding a balance point between these two, in a game jam, is extremely difficult in such type of puzzle games.
I totally agree with you. I'm so happy and joyful that it sparked your inspiration. for a game designer, I know it's a very special and pleasing moment: )
Your ideas and suggestions are great (especially turning freeze and reverse abilities into some wheels becoming parts of the puzzle itself) and I definitely will be exploring them in the future. Thanks a lot for your time and kind feedback. It means a lot to us <3
This is a really clever take on the time loop theme; solving the puzzles by cooperating with my past self felt great. I did find the pacing could be a bit slow while waiting for my ghost to finish its actions, but the core concept is fantastic and very solid. congratulations on this accomplishment in such a short time <3
By the way, I'm also in the jam, and I'd love to get your thoughts on my game if you have a moment.
Amazing twist on the screen wrapping mechanic. I loved the character design sooooo much. And some crazy level transitions :D Really impressive job. Congrats.
Also I would be honored if you take a look at my relaxing puzzle game and give some feedback on it too <3
Very cozy and nostalgic vibe, super adorable character. Also you used screen wrapping mechanic very well. Congratulation on the accomplishment. Had a lot of fun and good time with your game.
By the way, It would be my honor if you take a look at my relaxing puzzle game and give some feedback on it ^^ It means a lot
The bead system is a genius way to handle abilities, and I especially like how more powerful spells have a longer reload. It’s a very clever and balanced design choice.
By the way, I would be honored if you could take a look at my game and leave some feedback <3
