A first I found the game a little boring and the main idea not very original. Then suddenly appear the psychedelic level. It was totally unexpected and the game become very fun. It become very difficult with the moving white platform but the twist make me want to finish the level to see if there was an other level after. Good job !
The psychedelic level is ... interesting. Twisting platform and moving white platforms are really interesting (after rather boring start).
Graphically the game looks OK, and audio fits it (especially thy level when the protagonist is drugged).
I didn't get further though, my jumping skills are way too low.
Keep up the good work!
... No web version. Anyway, did you use assets for stuff? It looks that way. If so, please opt out of graphics. This game is berserk. It's weird and... welll... CAFFIIIIINNNNNNEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
So.. admittedly i am slightly intoxicated while playing this. Have to say the trippy effect of the coffee when there is alcohol in my system makes it SO MUCH BETTER!!! Controls were off just enough to make it challenging when the effect takes hold. And i loved the graphic style
Really funny game, it was fun to climb around the city, and the visual effect from too much coffee was funny. Level two was hilarious, and its music very fitting! I couldn't get past those white platforms, I wish there was a save point near them.
This must be some special coffee because I have never had this experience with coffee. This is a great plat-former with a fun theme. My only complaint is that the controls feel floaty.
Hey guys! First I would like to say that I really enjoyed the game's graphics. The animations, textures, models, and lighting were all very well done! I also enjoy the idea of the game world. I am 80% caffeine.
My only issue with the game is the "why" of it. I might have missed this, but what is the win condition? And getting to the win condition, are there real risks involved other than chilling out for a bit so you don't get poisoned?

hi thank for the review ,
i disabled the graphical and audio rating as we didnt make everything , we didnt see we needed to do that when we published it(coffee wasnt working anymore). thanks for letting us know.
Also the web build was really not working properly so we didnt put it in , sorry fot the inconveniance.
Very nice game you have here! I like the graphics and the sounds are good. Great concept. Goodluck!
Check out my game if you like! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/virus-detected
I played this on stream it was great fun lol :yum:
I loved the choice of the hipster dude and you were very creative with your levels!

Mind the logo, but I found a UI Glitch on stream with this lamp-post
For the post-jam version it would be great seeing more levels in the matrix world - The world design and moving platforms were brilliant to see and a nice boost of difficulty!
It would be great having some backstory on this guy - Why his world was turned into this apocolypse (maybe he works for a coffee company that opened a rift into the coffee dimension?) You have great scope for this!
Anyway it was great fun playing! Loved the trippy level you created, makes me crave for more... abit like coffee lol :yum: cheers!
As a lambda hispter, this is totally like my everyday's walk back to home.
Seriously, that second part is great! Walking through the first part is nice while missing a "something", then... BAM! Second part explode to player's face and is the exact essence of the "something" that was missing!
Guys, I have nothing to add you are masters of the twist. I also liked that the "R" key allows to restart rapidly like in any good death-and-retry game and how the character feels excited when getting lots of cafeine in the first part. So, in two words, thank you!
Pretty detailed character model and a funny running animation! I liked how everything changed once I finished the 'tutorial'. The ending was as abrubt as the switch to the psychedelic level, which was a bit of a letdown. Overall a pretty nice entry!
I'll start by saying that this is a fairly big world, at least the models are, in a good and the destruction was creative. I was not aware there was platforming to this and it took me a bit. At first I thought I was just trying to collect all the coffee cups until I hit a dead end but then was able to see where I needed to go. Doing 3D games with physics is not easy, especially when there's platforming and a camera tracking you so good work.
Interesting game :D The first level was a bit hard, because of the slippery controls. The second level gave me a massive wtf-moment :D At first I thought it was a trippy winning screen, but then I realized, it was a second level. Nice work
Very funny trip effect, and ending just 10/10 :D
