The Hunt For KNOWLEDGE

haha... how do you start the game???

@congusbongus it worked for me if you click the word "humans" in the first line (hovering over it changes the text color). Still can't figure out how to leave the first "room" though. I really like the music in that opening scene with the text on the white background!

I don't really know what i'm supposed to be doing here. If the goal of the game is to be obtuse and let the player figure things out, you at least need to give them a little hint about what the goal is.

Movement isn't very intuitive. The jump button shoots you into the air, and the movement keys rocket you from one end to the other.

The intro screen goes on for WAY too long, ended up clicking around until the game started.

I kinda liked how hard it was to figure out how to do anything. Kinda makes it its own game within the game

I was able to manage it to the level with the boss then somehow i was glithed through wall out of the boss area so I was unable to get back to the boss. Maybe add some button to restart the level cos I have to restart whole game a get to the boss again. I was unable to figure out what to do with the boss.

sode 2019-10-07 05:53

@manimal ok I will add a press this to restart button

There should be a lot more punctuation in the opening text, it's a bit hard to read in its current state. Congrats on submitting a game! Keep it up.

yeah my dad said that too (I am 12) but I can't really write english

LOL! What is going on?? I got stuck in the void!

@mutuware sad to hear that you can always watch the tutorial :)

I had absolutely no ideas what was going on. I manage to climb a bit but it seems very random to me. I would suggest having some hints on screen while playing. I saw in your description that you are 12 years old. I wasn't able to do things like that at your age! Keep up the good work and soon you will be an awesome game creator! Cheers!

The moving around was fun, I enjoyed gliding from wall to wall. The teleportation up was finicky and it was easy to launch out of bounds without meaning to. The poetic aspect was interesting, with the text popping up in between each level, but the font didn't seem to fit the game very well.

I think the idea of a teleport platformer, it would be interesting to play for sure.

Congrats on making a Compo game! It's not an easy task.
