This is actually my favorite game on Itch. I'm not even being sarcastic this game has more soul, character, and beautiful theme-based aesthetics than almost any other game I have ever played. You reached some rare nostalgia within me. Well done.
The atmosphere is stunning-- you really nailed the vibe you were going for. The music paired with the skybox was giving me a melancholy nostalgia I only get when playing Super Mario Galaxy. The exploration felt very free, and I never got lost or stuck. I loved the character design, and the player moved at the perfect speed for me to absorb my surroundings without getting bored. I couldn't help but feel like there was a deep message surrounding the world of Chordial, like I was searching for the meaning of my character's existence, but perhaps it was beyond my comprehension, like I was only getting part of a larger picture. 10/10 first project so proud brother.
Tilemap art is fire, player sprite also looks clean. I'm excited to see if you finish the game or not. Give my game a good rating and share if u want: https://sleepy-cicada.itch.io/mr-red-is-hungryexe.
Absolutely my friend! The tape you are missing is in one of the earlier levels, and it only flashes on the screen, so it is harder to find than most. You are the first to find these tapes by the way, I will definitely add a reference to you in a later game. Stay awesome.
