Very nice atmospheric and sound design. Unfortunately I find pretty hard to navigate, found a bunch of keys but then I started running in circles and not knowing what to do :( Good jog anyway :)
Oh, I didnt understood it at first, but now I did. Beat the game! It gets even better after you find the parts :) And yes, I am a Firefox user. Firefox is the best! :) Do you know why this happens on Firefox?
I wish there was some music too haha I was going to use some free music, but is was against the jam rules. In futue updates it will have some tunes for sure :)
The sound effects are made by changing the sound registers directly (the game uses GBDK), and was very place-holder-ish. I am glad you liked it.
Also: found a bug that once you enter fullscreen, the title screen is completely broken, and you cant go back to previous window size (it even persusts between launches!)
In my humble opinion, everything, the enemies, the camera, etc, seems to move too quickly. I cant get enough time to appreciate the nice sprite work. (:
I would recommend some kind of bounding box based camera movement, so it doesnt move when making very small movements. Also something like Mario, in which the camera only moves up if you land in a platform above.
This game have a great feeling, great graphics, great music, great presentation! With some polishing in the controls it can become great in everything :)
Yes, itch.io have most of the functionality, but no favorites, it is slower and cant be used offline. Also could be useful for anyone who didnt submit to track played games, since it is not possible to rate in this case. Being able to instantly shuffle the list was very useful too.
By the way, I made the scripts to make this playlist for another jam in the past, in which every game was a game boy rom. So I downloaded all the roms to my flash card and went to a trip with no internet with my game boy, it was a blast.
If I have any complaints, I cant remember any when writing this. Seriously, one of my favorites. I wonder why so few ratings for such a well made game! Five Stars!
I think people prefer playing jam games quickly in the browser window (myself included, so I can play more games faster). to download there is greater friction.I downloaded this game and haven't played it yet, for example, but it's on the list, it looks promising :)
