Nice game! I stumbled upon a glitch at some point. I was fighting a bee and I guess the way it died or something caused me to continue taking damage until I died and even after that. Took all my lives. Still super fun! It was probably some kind of fluke anyways :)

Thanks! It actually started with me making some concept art and the trees I was making were not looking good so I deleted them to start over. Then once I saw the squirrel on the blue background I was like "Water." Then I ran with it XD

Updated the UI in game scene and updated the acorn spawning code a smidge. Thanks again for your suggestions :)

You're so right and I'm totally aware of the problem with the acorns spawning behind the UI. I'll see if I can fix that before the end of the jam! Animations are a bit out of scope for me rn haha but they would make the game a 1000 times better. Thanks for playing!

Nice! I feel like I don't see hardly any car related games on itch at all. This was fun and I super enjoyed it :) My fastest lap was 32.45 seconds

Thank you, thank you. I'm planning on releasing the music on streaming services here shortly. Crazy that you mentioned this today as I'm doing some mixing on the tracks RN! I'll be sure to update the files once I'm done :)

Nice game! I love the concept of needing to use others abilities to help progress through the game. I hope that this idea gets expanded upon :)

Absolutely fantastic! The art style, the game play, the audio... everything was on point! I'd love to see more of this world

Beautiful game! Is there the possiblity of an android export in the future? This would make for a great offline time killer!

Cool! It feels like one of those first person shooters you find at arcades now except it's actually fun

Nice work! Loved the music and SFX. I thought that I was gonna hate the time it takes to switch between the realities but it actually added to game play!

Fantastic! Very 1984 but the numbers thing is giving me Severance vibes and I love that! I was confused at first, but I figured out what was going on

Lol, yeah, I thought the same when I wrote it 😂 however, I still stand by the decision. I love to explore dystopian worlds but I don't want to perpetuate a reality where we would live in one.

Didn't quite nail down the wall jump but the jumping off those ramps felt really good! I'd love to see more of the game :)

The music: eerie, the sound design: gross, and the story: kinda freaky. 10/10 game! Super unique idea that I have not seen anywhere else and something that I want more of! 

Lol I'll add some text below the image to make it more readable :)

I promise I have no idea XD

Thank you for understanding! I did feel bad for submitting a pretty small game but at least it is something. I Just updated it to include some SFX and background music I wrote in the last 24 hours for it. I want to keep updating it for my giftee. Thanks for playing!

YO! THIS IS FANTASIC!!! I can't believe how good this game is! The looks and the game play are absolutely solid! I seriously can't thank you enough :) I love this game so much! If you ever want some music from me, just let me know :) I'd be more then happy to collaborate with you on any project. Wonderful work!

lol what?

Thanks man! You a real one 🤛 I tried using a pixel art upscaling tool I made for this project and I didn't scale things to a neat ratio but I think it turned out alright. Also, watch out for a pixel art upscaling tool from me 👀 it'll be an offline desktop tool so people don't have to use sites like lospec which can slow and have a queue

For sure, for sure. I really have a bad habit of not informing people how to play which can leave much to be desired for the player. Imma make sure I start implementing tutorials or at the very least a "how to play" section in the game. Thanks for playing even though the user experience was lacking 😅

Good thinking! Gotta use that unlimited ammo somehow haha thanks for playing!! I'll make sure that I play your (and everyone elses in my comments) game. I love seeing people's  creativity and imagination!

Haha yeah.... There is some lore behind it all that I never explained. Hopefully I'm able to come back to this again and add a tutorial and some background as to what's happening in the game world. Thanks for playing!! I really appreciate it 😊

A reoccurring theme with the games I make is that I didn't explain them well enough (if at all) and I will definitely make sure to spend time making a tutorial for future projects to hopefully increase the fun for each project. Thanks for playing!!

Hello! I've been working with indie devs for the past three years. I'm starting to take it a bit more seriously as of late and would like to work with more people! I'd love to help out with your project. Give me a shout!

I have experience working with indie devs for a while now doing jams as far back as 2021 and I have been writing music for much longer then that. While I mostly write electronic music, I can write music is a variety of genres!

WOAH that was cool! I really liked the visuals of this game!

I think I fixed it? I was not able to recreate the issue but I looked at the code and found a couple different places it could be and patched it up as best I could. If it does it again I'll need to overhaul the system completely

Oof, that sucks for me. I'll look into it. I knew it would do it sometimes but never this frequently. I'll take care it.... Hopefully 🤞

Ah, okay I should have clearer. Pick up the corps and place it on the fire to block it. I'll add a "how to play" section in the next update. Thanks for letting me know!

Super underrated game! This was actually so fun and I would love to see it fleshed out

Thank you! Space operas were my bread and butter growing up so making the sound track was such a blast!

I appreciate it! I grew up watching space adventures so the music was such a blast to make :)

Thanks! I'm newer to SFX so that means a lot :)

I actually had a friend over to play test it and he was also very confused at the beginning. I immediately was like "dang, I ain't got time to add better instructions right now. Oops." Thanks for playing! I really appreciate it! After the jam I'll add the instructions :)

Super fun! I really feel like this could become something more, the game was great!

Super fun! The best strat was to spam bishops until that was not the best strat and I had to pivot lol
