Nice first attempt of making a game, some fun ideas here :)
A general tip: In my experience, it's best to keep your normal day rhythm. Even if you pull out a few hours at night, you'll get them right back in your face at around 4 PM the next day!
Anyway, To your game. I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing, in fact at some point I rolled out of the field forwards, and it didn't even kill me, so now I'm falling in the void. I noticed I could roll around, but I couldn't figure out how to shapeshift or do anything other than dying either on one side or the other. I'm sure I'm missing something, but a general tip for next time: Add just that bit of text, even if it sits on a wall or something, with just the minimum of what the player needs.
Same issue here, jumping rarely works, and quite a few times the ball rolled off behind the stage and fell into the infinity. I won't vote for now, I will wait in case you submit a fixed version.
P.S. Love the acapella music!
Wow man! it's hard! the music is funny but I'm not sure about where is the shapeshiting here... anyway congrats!
I like the graphic and audio! Interesting game!
Hahahah cool graphics!
I made my personal version of Tetris theme a capella too hahaha
dafuq did i just play? :P
quite an amusing game, mate!
I would buy the OST.
Jumping doesn't work every time, but I get this game was never about the jumping, its meaning is much deeper than that. A serious take on liberty and a tribute to the freedom fighters with an unexpected twist. Great work.
I appreciate the humor, best of luck :)
It only wanted to jump sometimes when I tried SPACE :(
The music put a smile on my face! :D
I loved the audio hahaha
Nice job for first attemp! Keep going! :D
I... What did I just play ?
This was unexpected !
Awkward feeling, but it was fun to play.
Two big bugs :
- You sometimes fall into the void for an infinite amount of time.
- The jump command works only sometimes.
So I made a script that spams the 'space' when you press 'c' (Here for those that have trouble jumping :
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/p24tng32aft82wu/SpaceSpam.exe). It made playing the game a lot easier and more enjoyable.
Also, I wouldn't advise you to have a mouse-based "menu" when the rest of the game is keyboard.
Cool thing to have a "Cinematic" at the end. Also very funny graphics and especially the music made the game stand out.
Good job !
Funny sounds and quiet nice game!
I don't know what to make of this ... the soundtrack taunts me every time my ball falls off of the near or far side of the platform while I try to work out how to jump ... oddly mesmerising ...
Perfect audio! :D I love it when people do that for Game Jams
