I really liked this game! I think the graphics were certainly the strongest feature, and it just feels very finished. i personally didn't get to the end of the game, but I think the sense of progression in the game is evident throughout. I think the music added to the experience a lot, and the core story is a very interesting take on the theme. If the controls were cleaned up a bit, I think this could easily be made into a bigger game!

The graphics are super well polished as is the animation/spine stuff. Felt like the audio kinda clashed with the visuals and music as it was kinda glitchy/chiptuney. It has the potential to be something more after the jam if developed further. I liked the narrative elements!

Great soundtrack and Art. Felt like a really well polished experience.

Really nice looking game. The music added a lot. There's some minor bugs like the skeleton sprite is on some bushes and at the beginning I wandered of to (what I think was) an of game are with nothing by clicking the trees in the bottom. I didn't get to the end but I found some brains that would let me shoot enemies (although I think I could do it from the start) and that's a great idea to give players new abilites as the player discovers new body parts. Nice work!

I think this game deserves more recognition! The game was not boring for me and it stands out from other games because it has a longer gameplay.The art, progression and the mood are great but the battle and open world concept are still a little rough on the edges. Really liked the game!

The game play was smooth and the art was nice, really loved the character. Having a map would be helpful and controlling the character gets a bit annoying but maybe its just to me as I'm not a point-and-click guy :smile: but the story is interesting and loved how it started. It goes really well with the theme as you literally start with missing body parts :laughing:. Good luck with your game!

I love a good graveyard (: The big map was fun to explore, but the slow controls and bone-shooting mechanic got old quickly. I would have loved some way to make/mark my own map in-game, or some way to dodge/block/change what bone I'm throwing to keep the general combat interesting. Great art and impressive scope for the jam, nice job!

Impressively complete game for the jam. Was in awe at the gfx & choice of music. The pathfinding was a bit off and annoying, and a map would've reduced the feeling of grind. But all in all, very well done!

I liked the quite literal interpretation of the theme, to be dead is as close to starting with nothing as you can get! The graphics are nice and coherent and the game idea is quite funny.

Love the story behind this one! Movement is a little frustrating, I definitely would have preferred to have wasd or arrow key controls.

I like :) Graphics, animation, art, music, gameplay. And alsa? like what you don't need to download to computer. But for me there wasn’t enough maps, infographics of what was already collected and even the bats were not clearly visible. So it was a lot of fun for me to play :)) Thank you!

really funny! nice graphics, good use of sounds and music. i couldn't find my heart (i looked for over 5 minutes) - might have another go at it later. pretty polished for the time we had, well done!

Pretty neat game! I'll just noticed a few things: - The levels are either too big or too empty (I personally think it's the former) - The bats are soooo hard to see! I was hit and it took me a minute to understand what happened!

Good job otherwise!
