Thanks so much! <3

Thank you so much for the kind words; we're glad you enjoyed the challenge! We actually had other mechanics and expansions to the core game that tied it more closely to the theme. But in the end, we decided to focus on finishing with a solid starting point that we could expand on later, which is better than gameplay that's unstable or too complex for a jam. We plan to add more stages and features in the future. Some changes will be added shortly after the voting phase ends, so feel free to check back and check our progress! Thanks once again for playing and leaving a feedback!

Thanks a lot! Appreciated! <3

I may be really slow (see what I did there)... but I couldn't figure out how to speed up or if there are other control mechanisms that I'm not aware of. I think it would be helpful to include this information in the game description or somewhere on the screen so the player can experiment without feeling like they're missing something obvious. I tried double-tapping, jumping, running, etc. but I was painfully aware that I was missing something in the range of possible movement options, so I couldn't really make any progress. As someone else mentioned, it might also be worth creating some variations for the sound effects since you hear them quite a lot, especially when you don't know what you're doing, but on the other hand, I had a hard time understanding the basics, so this is a small suggestion. I would also consider making the game start out more linear and build up the challenge as you go along if you want to let the player understand how they're supposed to try to control themselves and solve the puzzles, most of the time I just jumped into the void and waited to respawn lol. If you want to write me spoilers about using the keys, I'd be happy to try the game again.

I like your detailed comment!

Thank you! Appreciated!

I think the usage of the mouse was interesting but a bit awkward to execute while using the arrows to control the character. I also think perhaps it's worth checking the scale of objects, the character looks slightly off compared to the platforms.  In the images it looks smaller and more fitting, so maybe that's my screen. The color scheme is nice and made the character pop. Good job

Thanks so much! Appreciated!

Hey thanks so much! We do plan to expand and test it further! We had a lot of ideas we didn't get to add during the week so stay tuned! And feel free to follow us so you get notification for updates, we would love to have more testers in future updates, of course! Thank you for the kind offer and feedback! <3

Thank you! Happy you enjoyed my art; I enjoyed creating it! :-)

Hey! Here is my experience of this jam if interested~
We developed the concept of the game together, and I was the artist and character animator (mostly). As an illustrator, I support the hand-crafted approach, partly because I think there is so much unused potential, and partly because I really enjoy creating it! My ambition is to add some of that grace to the gaming medium as much as I can.  I drew everything by hand using fountain pens, Chinagraphs, and occasionally pencil, for textures and details. I also worked on creating the fonts and things related to the UI.  Everything was then scanned, tweaked and tested in the game itself. 

Personally, I really enjoyed this jam! This is our second jam (in general and together), and we are grateful to all the people who played and left encouraging and helpful feedback! We felt that there were a lot of ideas and mechanics to expand the gameplay in relation to the theme that we didn't have time to incorporate in the week, especially since we wanted the game to work more smoothly first. We plan to expand it even further after the voting period, so feedback and suggestions that you would like to see are welcome! And feel free to follow if interested in the journey ahead :) https://cohzach.itch.io/mental-trap

P.S. I do daily scribbles on my IG story and of course the week of the jam was no exception, so here is one of them, LOL

Thanks for playing! :)

Btw here is ours; we had more ideas for mechanics we wanted to include, some bugs that will be fixed in the next version etc. but for the jam we are testing this! We plan to expand it further after the voting period, so feedback and suggestions you would like to see are much appreciated! :) https://cohzach.itch.io/mental-trap
