@cody-foster thanks for the review. I had troubles with the build (i build with my local saves, with bad screen resolutions..) It should be ok now.

also you game was fun ^^

@tontonpizza Thanks for playing our game. I tried again and now its way too big for the screen. I only see the top left corner of the screen.

I played the game, and it was great! Clearly lots of thought and time was put in.

I like the style a lot! With a bit more polished, this would be a very nice looking game. I like the characters! I also love the Night In the Woods styled platforming and dialogue, but I often got stuck trying to jump onto platforms. Otherwise, great work!

Great music!

I really enjoyed the music and the art style. You walk so slow! O.o

Does the game end when you fall off the edge?

tontonpizza 2018-12-04 06:18 ♥ 0

@beats yes, but the function i call to quit the game doesnt work for HTML build (Application.Quit), only for the downloadable version. thanks for playing the game to the end

Definitely felt some night in the woods inspiration, but it wasn't on the nose, so great way to make a style your own! I fell into the lake and slowly drowned, not sure if that is the end or if there was more. I think a more clearer objective could help keep the game focused, as opposed to the free-roam style street you walk down after leaving the house. Great Job!

@evan-leibman thanks for the review. I didnt figure out a way to close the app when its the html version.. it works better with the .exe . have you tried to restart the game after drowning ?

That is awesome, I love the ending quote and how this game turned out. First I thought, that pressing shift to walk faster would be a nice feature, but considering how it turned out I guess that it is ok as it is.

The beginning was strong, in the room and the hookup, but it turned black after i played the guitar and the other mouse was gone. No idea what happened. Then i drowned in the blue stuff.

i also wasn't sure where to go and drowned. i like the art and music. i think the game has potential. good work!

guilb 2018-12-04 15:35 ♥ 1

Nice concept, I like the art and the sound. Maybe the game should has more options on the choices but I understood the idea!

sashbros 2018-12-04 16:35 ♥ 1

Nice work and gameplay..Its just that the directions of what to do wasn't much clear.. And I drowned.. Some buttons for restart may be awesome.. Other than that.. Great work..Also the speed of mouse can be a little bit higher.

@sashbros Thanks for playing my game. there is no restart, that's pretty much the point.

sashbros 2018-12-04 16:54 ♥ 1

No problem @tontonpizza it was really fun playing the game..I think you inspired a little by the Night in the woods !!

tontonpizza 2018-12-04 17:05 ♥ 0

@sashbro Yes i like to mimic popular game as a "Click-Bait" for my message. I played your game and i see you have troubles with lags. Upload the unity project files i may take a look at your code

I love this genre of game. Platformer/metroidvania, nice art! Ambitious goals, pretty awesome for 3 days!

While playing, I got about 4 or 5 quests from npcs before I died suddenly (fell down a huge pit). No worries, I just refreshed to play again, but the game apparently remembered me and refused to let me play again (saying something to the effect of "you've already made your choices."). I think I get the "you only live once" idea here, but somehow I must have found an abnormally short path through the game and would have liked to try again.

All around good job!

Interesting concept. I enjoyed the exploration element and drowned. I would've liked to see more of the game but respect your choice to only allow me to play once.

acaral 2018-12-05 00:05 ♥ 1

The idea of "you've already made your choices" is very great and original

I really like the mood and overall feel of this game. The music and dialogue set the tone well. The graphics are also really well done. I think with a bit more time and polish this would be a really good story/platforming style of game. Nice work!

very NITW feel -- will be playing again -- tanks for making it
