Cool concept and use of the theme! I hit a variety of graphics and gameplay glitches that was causing the screen to flicker and reload randomly? Not sure if I was doing something wrong, but I couldn't get fullscreen to work with it accepting my inputs. Really loved the art style and audio, great job!
Love the concept, and the initial twist was fun. I think I got caught in a loop after the second part of the first stage started, unless I'm just missing a puzzle, but I enjoyed what I played!
Hello @zactical , thanks for testing our game! In fact, glitches and flickering are a normal behaviour of our game, sorry it disturbed you :( And yes, stage reloads because you play the coin the second time.
Thanks @paragonraptors for commenting! Oups, when talking about loop, you mean you weren't able to play all 3 stages? No there is no puzzle :(
@grena Oh ok, I will give it another shot, perhaps I was just slow, haha
I loved it. The first time everything change I was like whaaaaat ? hahaha cool idea, just the audio is a bit annoying after few minutes XD
Really interesting concept, nice sound design and pixel art, good job ! But.. woaw... What the heck did I just played? O_O
HAHA I love the concept! Well done!
That was crazy, nice work! I couldn't get past the first stage as a coin though :(
Great Job! Beautiful Art, good Concept, good music.👍
Oh my god. I wasn't very into it the first round... but then- oh man. that was incredible. Absolutely a wonderful job all across the board. Great game.
Edit: I'd suggest changing the controls from arrow keys to WASD, because the arrow keys would scroll the HTLM5 page downwards making it difficult to play.
Hahaha, that was very fun. Very well executed. Nice job!
The first round that I played the only weird thing I thought was why I was slashing coins, but then it turned into a nightmare inducing experience, and I loved it! Seriously though, the parts where I was the coin was terrifying, pretty much horror-like, there's a geniuine sense of fear when I get caught running in circles with the amazon slowly gaining on me. Its one of the best entries I played so far and I'm surprised you don't have more than 20 votes yet
I only understood the concept when I read the comments here. But after that it was very cool. Great idea, great interpretation of the topic. Graphics, sound, all very well done!
First I thought it was a traditional game where you run around and collect items with a limited amount of time. Then WOAH! My biggest problem with the game was that it was too short - which is a great thing! There were some minor issues, like not having a sprite for running downwards and upwards, not having more levels, and the fact that there's not much of a learning curve (the difficulty is pretty much the same at the first and last levels). However, overall I enjoyed it quite a lot, and I wish you all good luck next Ludum Dare! :)
Oh man, this game is fantastic. Delightfully disturbing! I had a blast playing all the way through. Great work!
Haha solid scoring game all across the board, you guys did great! I started playing because the title/art/reference caught my eye, stayed for the music and then oh damn... things got dark real quick. Great work, I loved it!
I was not expecting that at all ! I was completely surprised. I find that music is very appropriate. I was panicked during the dark phase. Good appropriation of the theme! I just have a small comment about the level design : the game becomes easier as you progress, when the game area increases. Excellent work
Kind of similar to our theme but more horror and definitely with more polish. The horror aspect came as a surprise and it was shocking but gooood! The levels were difficult but doable with little mechanics the timing came out to be just perfect to cover for that. Even though it's a joke about games it left a strong impact. The sounds, the screen changes, they were perfect. Engaging, heartbreaking, brutal, with nudity, like a good HBO series. Applause!
Cool gfx, cool music! First level was easy to master -- while it really was fun. After finishing the first level, something weired happened: the theme switched and this appeared to be a glitch in the software first... but maybe you intended it this way. Anyway, I did not know how to continue the game.
The idea of the switch to being a coin was very cool. The end credits were also very funny. Great soundtrack and sound effects. Nice teamwork!
PS: the keyboard loses focus when you click outside the game. Maybe this can fix your issues: https://supernapie.com/blog/keyboard-focus-in-an-iframe
Genius game and switching between what the coins feel and how the player sees the world is really cool.
Really nice game. The switching between the two worlds was awesome and the story is very innovative.
