I've never played this genre before but I'd say this was a fun introduction,  I can definitely see the appeal. I didn't really get what the difference between the attacks are besides damage and attack range

The theme of Character Customization was integrated wonderfully

Very interesting concept. It took me a while, especially because I didn't even try to put in the game, but once I was in the rat game it became quite clear what I had to do

Well done!

Not much in the face of customization, but I do like the idea of the auto turret/roomba that you have to take care of. I do wish that you could decide where to go at intersections

It took me a minute to understand how to actually move the objects in 3D, but once I understood it was quite easy to do. I would have wished for the bot fighting to look a bit more exciting, but that wasn't the purpose of the jam

I was a bit disappointed that everything has a specific point where it has to go to, I wished it was a bit more free (Like the robot building section in Undertale Yellow if you've seen it)

Cute art style and awesome animations, although unfortunately the equip system broke for me. Nontheless, a good basis to expand upon

Nice little jam game. I instantly recognized Syntys pack because I tried it out for this jam as well XD
I would have like more drastic changes, like different hairtypes and clothing, but reading the comments I can see that this is your first jam so don't worry about it too much!

What a game! The art was amazing and the gameplay polished!
The Cheat code at the end was also very fun to use!

I found it a bit fustrating navigating the pause menu and selecting different items/weapons. Also the hitboxes of my attacks were often small then I expected, which resulted in me getting hit when I feel like I shouldn't have. Other then that and some level design problems like leap of faiths with enemies at the bottom, this is a really strong entry, especially for just 2 weeks of work!!!

Such a relaxing game, I love the atmosphere together with the dozens of different AI behaviors!
I could definetly see it if the different body parts changed different things, for example the placements of the eyes could influence where the player can spot other fish, or adding a tail for extra agility.

Very awesome, I definetly want to see more of this, although please change the background, as that gave me a bit of a headache

There is so much audio/visual polish in this, its very well made!
Although I found the text to not be the easiest to read.

A simple but effective game idea!
In the description you said you want to make a difficult platformer out of it which sounds like an awesome idea, I personally don't know of any Faudian Game (which I think this would be) where the difficulty of controls are actually made by yourself, so you can decide to focus your design on a particular part of the level that's challenging for you!

Some problems I had were the placement issues, where I expect to be able to place it at the edge but it was too far out,  and I'm not sure if I'm a big fan of the automatic versions, as I feel like that can take a lot of control away from you.

Otherwise cool entry, especially for the 2 days you had for it!

Very cool idea to have Fireworks be your "Character"!
I hope in the future that you can make even more firework varients, maybe even sequences and special effects like for example the Fireworks show in Dubai!

Thank you. If I get into the next round you betcha that I will expand on this!

Thank you so much, I really like this gameplay loop so I hope I can continue it in the next round!

Thank you, hope I will get the chance to progress, but im still stoked with what I managed to do!

Thanks for playing!

Thank you, Im very proud of this system.

I could definetly see a Half-Life style game with it or something

Thank you very much for playing it!

The art is just gorgeous, very well executed! The swinging is fun and intuitive, the only thing that ruins it a bit is that there is practically no air control and momentum gets reset after landing.
Maybe you can add a slide button that lets you keep the momentum but takes away control or something.
Also zoom out the character a little, you should always be able to see what you grapple  

The controls feel really responsive and you can make very tight jumps with it, well done! The level design is very non linear in it's approach, which helps portray the feeling of discovery, in this case a different unfamiliar planet!

I think for a first game + doing it alone, this is really good! The music was a bit repetitive but good nontheless.

Next time remember to make the Canvas scale with the screen size because the UI was not working in fullscreen mode.

Good work and keep going!

Very cool game with interesting atmosphere, very well executed on that front! The gameplay itself was challenging if a little stiff, so maybe work a bit on the character control

The boss was really cool and a good challenging fight, maybe deactivate the hit box of the hands when they aren't moving

Thank you very much!

An intriguing idea, but for that we fist have to talk about Parallel Universes.

Should have probably mentioned it somewhere in game but you can press R to reset the level XD

Also im probably gonna work on it a bit more, see what I can do with the concept

The character controls and platforming feel great and are really polished, just like most of the game.

But I do have some critisism for the game as well.

1. The Camera zoom-in is a cool idea, but it kinda defeats the purpose of change the size since it doesnt feel any different. Size is relative, and since all other things are small as well and the camera gets scaled down too, it doesnt feel any different being small or big. I would maybe suggest playing around with either keeping the camera the same size or if you cant see the character well enough then you could only scale it down a little, so that the character still seems a lot smaller but you can see more of the room and its relative size.

2. There is a lot of waiting and walking involved that definetly needs to be cut down

I think with both these things improved this game could be really good, I especially like the sound design!

This was so fun, definetly could see a full game made out of this, maybe with a bit more diversity and more mechanics but the platforming felt great, the level design was straight forward but still fun, maybe a bit repetitive. The humor though is on point, what game dev doesnt want to make an MMO fast paced action adventure rpg momentum shooter?

The funniest thing imo was definetly the start of the blender level XD

Really creative vision and great execution, I would have just a few suggestions:

the controls are not very intuitive, but I think a simple way to make it a bit better would be to use the arrow keys instead of ijkl, since ijkl is such an unintuitive control scheme. There are probably ways to make it even more easy to pick up but this is my simple suggestions

and the second would be to not use red for positive things. After the first level I immediately forgot that red were jumping platforms and avoided them until like the 5th level. Its always important to use preexisting familiarities, in most games red is bad, so red should mostly be used for something that is bad (like the enemies)

But despite those complaints, great idea!

I think one of my favorites is where you had to make one object bigger so it pushes a ball to do something else, I think that was really creative and could probably be well expanded upon!

Unbelievably great game, especially for 3 people in a 4 day game jam! Loved the idea and the level design was really great. The polish too was excellent. 

My only real critisism would be the jump, im not a fan of it only activating when letting go, id rather have it be instantanous when you start pressing it. And its probably more taste, but I often got confused (especially in cases where I needed to react quickly not to fall of) where I wanted to go forwards and started reversing of the edge (totally my fault i know XD), I think maybe the control scheme should be a bit different. 

I think I would like to have the pullback motor on 'S', the braking on 'Space' and maybe the jump on 'LMB' that way when you want to go forward you dont accidentally reverse. But thats just my taste, its totally fine how it is!

Great game 100%, would love it to be expanded!

Probably the best level design ive seen so far for the jam, the core mechanic is used in a very creative way and really fun and easy to understand. The only small itty  bitty improvement would be the jumping, it doesnt feel quite right and is maybe  a bit short. Other than that, really good!

If you plan on doing more high qualitiy levels for this game I would definetly play them!

Really fun idea but the character controller  was a bit fustrating, It feels a bit like Mario 64 with turning around and the fact that you can't fall down ledges made  it fustrating going down the stairs again and again. Also I would maybe consider adding a sprint button.

Besides the character controller, the level design and execution were well done. 

With some polish and a rewritten Character controller I think this game could really shine! 

What a genius twist on the theme! Sometimes the car understeered a lot and I couldnt turn at all but besides that I didnt really encounter any  bugs! What I would say though is that the different levels need something to mechanical to differentiate them so they are not only more interesting and varied but also more memorable.

But still great idea, great execution and Id love to see you expand (get it?) on that idea  

Edit: Maybe an idea would be to make things like trees breakable at a certain size,  so you can still have  a shot at going to the speedlimit

Genius Idea and super well executed, I didn't run into any bugs while playing which is rare. I also likethe squishing of the character alot. I would maybe suggest giving the blocks and/or the player a physics material with no friction so it doesnt get stuck on walls. Also maybe add an extra downwards force after the player has reached the jump apex, it makes the jumps feel a lot tighter!

Really like the idea, maybe position the UI somewhere else so you dont block the view of the tiles you've placed. Being able to scroll the camera up  and down would probably also help  with accidentilly leaving tiles behind.

But the basic  Idea is  awesome, with a bit of polish this could be a really fun mobile game!

I think I did but I could also be mistaken, I have to check again

Really cool idea and the first few Levels look great. The game is a bit buggy but thats been said enough already. I would  suggest for the box to restrict the axis movement and for the collecting of the sand to be a button so you dont do it accidentally. That could also open new doors (literally) where you have to use it to jump up somewhere. But still, good job!

Loved the game, gave me outer wilds mixed with  Mario Galaxy vibes. The music is also well picked. I would suggest to make the camera controllable, at least to an amount so you can  look around a bit more and  percieve depth  a bit better

Lucky for us that it did or else the Nomai couldnt have figured out that its blind. So if you think about it this game creates a new Universe

I like the idea but sucking up the object and shooting them back out took way too long, if it was more instant it would feel a lot more satisfying and would help with the pacing.

Still, great Idea!
