very cool but jarring perspective shift. Great aesthetic

Awesome looking! I felt like the character moved a little slow, but the concept and graphics are amazing!

I really like the effects on the main menu screen! The gameplay is very unique and I like the aesthetic you went with. The terminal around the whole thing is a wonderful touch. Jumping felt really good as well, you did a great job on that. Good entry :)

Really cool graphics. I felt like the input was a bit laggy on the jumps.

The perspective shift is a cool mechanic, but I felt like it was way more difficult than side-scrolling mode.

Wow. This is REAL fuckin cool. Seriously one of the most impressive submissions I've seen. The controls are so unique, and so well-executed. The perspective change was unexpected but very welcome. This is some beautiful stuff.

Thank you very much for the feedback! :v:

The vintage style looks really nice. But I can't play it. Would you be able to have a Linux or Web export for those like me who don't have Windows?

begocio 2020-04-20 17:32

@hakro sure, I'll try to export it to Linux and/or WebGL and I'll tag you when it's done. Thank you for the interest!

Some really interesting platforming mechanics and awesome visuals 🔥 I'd love some nice electronic musinc on the background, it'd really set the mood :D

nice take, graphics and difficulty, a bit of music to keep us in the running mood and it's perfect

begocio 2020-04-21 01:32

@hakro I've ported the game for WebGL, Linux and MacOS now. You can play it now. Thanks for the suggestion!

Hey I saw your comment on my game, I love your take on it! I really wanted to incorporate some of the graphics that you have (On a screen, CRT effect), but didn't have time -- really love the look! The perspective shift was great too -- I wished it happened more often!

Super cool game, the graphics are great and the lifeline aspect fits the theme really well. The perspective shift is innovative, but it's also way more difficult than the 2d sidescrolling mode. I also like how the levels are randomized each time you restart. Amazing job overall!

Well, never thought I'd see a game where you play as an EKG.

Love the concept, love MOST of the gameplay (it's a little confusing at time, but I do like the variety and challenge of the procedurally-generated game)

I both love and hate the visuals. In-game they give the whole thing a lot of character and really add to the astheic. For the menus and usable AI it really becomes a "style over function" thing as It's so hard to read basic menu prompts.

Fix that tiny issue and you have a near-perfect casual game. I bet you could tweak this into a good mobile game.

Nice concept and gameplay, I would tweak the visual UI since some parts lack contrast and legibility between the texts and the background color/elements. A music playing on the back and some fast passe for the expert part and this game would be insanely cool

That is very creative! I had some issues with jump-aiming in 3rd person view but overall it was fun!

Here is my playtest:
