Fair enough, i was hoping it would be self explanatory cause there is not much. ill update the description see if that helps. thanks for trying it. you gotta toss or feed following the same secret rule the goblins are.
Pretty cool, I like the roguelike aspect but don't love the intro platforming to get to it. And can be a bit frustrating to want to complete a challenge but then just be thrown a new one. Maybe like checkpoint flags? But also not really my genre so I don't know anything.
We discourage progression between games/levels because it stops being a 20 second game and becomes something much longer
I would interpret this to mean that the entire game experience is meant to be contained in those 20 seconds and that a longer multi-level game would be outside the spirit of the jam. But likely not disqualified.
I have a similar question, you kind of answered it virtual nomad but I want to be extra clear. If my game is composed of many 20 second levels and nothing carries over from level to level except what you the player have learned (maybe you learn how to open a gate in level 1 and without that knowledge you cant complete level 2) is that in the spirit of the rules? i was thinking of doing something where you are knowledge gated - so in later 20 second levels, you need some knowledge you learned in an earlier 20 second level, but I'm not sure if that counts as 'learned skills' and is within the spirit. Any thoughts?
I have an idea and small prototype but it ended up not really fitting the theme, should i still finish and submit it or come up with something else? thanks
