Really cool idea!

Got stuck for me unfortunately pretty early on. Not sure if there was any game play coming up, but all i seemed to do was hit space to skip text!

For a first game this is really good! The movement was a bit stiff on the character but movement didnt happen that often so I was alright with it. Liked the music, liked the writing, overall pretty good game

Nice work on your first game, and well done for having the courage to do it at a game jam. Clever idea.

Sorry, but I couldn't get into it. I had to read the description to even see how this used the theme. Was definitely a different entry though. Next time, let the player walk a bit faster from the start. It takes a moment before he starts moving so I thought it was broken at first.

Everything is very slow and clunky. Kinda like an old computer game, maybe that is what your going for? idk, just not too fun for me

Really like the use of theme, and the graphics are solid. Got stuck in the shop, unfortunately. Definitely bump up the movement speed next time. I also love the music, how'd you make it?

valon487 2014-08-25 04:43

I made the music using a 5$ electric piano my grandmother has had since I was 2.

Love the idea! :D

Fixed some <s>insects</s> bugs

Congrats on your game! I liked the idea for this and enjoyed it at the start but it was a little slow. Some minor animations to the characters would have been cool but I can see that the vast amount of your time was spent on gameplay and that's cool. Cheers, Ben.

I love the theme idea and the pixel art. But I couldn't get past the first room. I just walked off screen and then nothing happened.

congrats on finishing your first game! :)

Congrats on your first game. The ending was really unique haha. I won't give it away though.

Hard to see how this fits the theme without your description on the website. Also, I don't know if anyone else had this problem, but the text was very dark and tiny, making it hard for me to read. Of course the movement speed is way too slow but you probably already knew that. If you do another adventure game like this, I'd work on styling the text a little better. Overall I enjoyed it, thanks for submitting!

Certainly not bad for a first try :) I enjoyed the pixel art, even if the gameplay itself is a bit thin.

Nice use of the theme. Simple yet effective game, goood job !

jupiter_hadley 2014-08-26 17:15

Great little story! I included it in part 7 of my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series :) http://youtu.be/8xjQ7S7Vv10

linuus 2014-08-26 22:22

Love the art style. Nice to see you are getting into game design, we need more people with you skills!

trekapp 2014-08-26 22:25

nice one! noticed that some of the text was cut off on the left border of the game

barleyarley 2014-08-26 22:25

Liked the art style and was kind of quirky. The movement was very clunky though and it felt very hands off most of the time. Great effort for first jam though!

brogrammers 2014-08-27 21:59

Haha, first game in this ludum dare that made me laugh. Good job.

snooze82 2014-09-07 17:55

reminds me of zak mckracken :) keep on working on this! :)

nooner-bear 2014-09-14 16:49

Well done, for your first game ever that's pretty on track! Having to tap my key to move was slightly odd.
