Very cute art! I had a few moments where the audio messed up and glitched out but over all it was a cute experience! The fact that you used flies as pictures for yourself in the credits was really funny.

Hehe the art and the audio are awesome, especially the main characters eyes and little legs! I wish the controls felt a bit more reactive and there was a bit more sense of progress.

I liked the style a lot, love the kinda draft vibe, really cute... The only thing for me was de controlling of the fly, i struggled a lot and for some moments i didnt know what to do. But it was fun. And that intro hahahah relly liked that too.

Funny game, took me a while to get the hang of the controls. Really like the credits page.

Hi. I really love the drawings and the setting. Had a really tought time with the controls tho. I get it was intentionally clumsy, but after 5+ minutes I gave up (soorrry). On this note I did not understand if the game is an endless run or a designed path. I highly recommend you to add a score with the total distance digged (in case it is an endless run) or a slider with the character position relative to the total path.

There is an ending, at the bottom. The controls are clumsy at first, but getting the rhythm right is the key. Sometimes you can move really fast ;)

I wasn't sure (and still am) if the light gray things had collisions. At first I thought they didn't but I seem to collide with some.

Wherever this poop comes from, they need to see a medic.

I was about to stop playing when I reached the end. Love the graphics and the sound! Did you create the sound by yourself? Because in the credits it says "Freesound". If you used assets created by other people make sure to opt out of the affected category. Audio in this case.

The controls were a bit too clumsy. But I figured out how to descent really quickly at some point. Not sure if that was an exploit or by design :)

Oh man this game looks and sounds awesome!.

i love the intro so much

bangkerpow 2021-04-28 12:39

Everything about this is great but I was about to just quit right before I reached the end because there wasn't any signposting letting me know how far I was.

Great game. Liked the art style and "story" :-) . The fly is hillarious. The controls are a bit wonky.

annie-owl 2021-04-28 21:05

That was the most beautiful ending I've ever seen! :smile: And this starting music/melody is just amazing!

Lovely art and music! I struggled a bit with the controls, but it's a great submission.

bamallama 2021-04-30 15:31

I know a lot of people are saying the controls are weird, but I actually really enjoyed them, it was unique.

I definitely think the game lacks a sense of progression (I actually did have to come here to the comments and check if it was endless), and knowing when you're getting tired is a little weird (I realized later on that it was based on how closed the eyes were, but that wasn't immediately obvious.

Overall really fun!

Nice! I love the art style, cute and disgusting! :D when you get movement mechanics the gameplay is also really satisfying. Fun game!

tombuston 2021-04-30 17:31

Controlling the fly and seeing it wiggle is fun, but I think it can be a little frustrating after a while without any clear objective. I think the game need clearer explanations; tt took me some times to understand the "sleep" mechanic when the eyes are closed, and I'm not sure why I had to pick up those bubbles (is it to breathe?).

The audio is nice, the music at the start was really good and the little sound when moving are funny. I also liked the black and white artstyle and the "crazy" look you gave to the fly.

Well done!

cemre 2021-04-30 18:02

I like the art a lot, and I like the mechanics, I think this is a very interesting idea. The controls are not something I have seen before, I had a lot of fun while playing this game. The only thing I would say is maybe it would be nice if controls were a bit more prominent? I mean, It is a bit too hard (for me) to control the character right now, when I press A or D, i can hardly go wherever I want to go, so if the movement was a bit more prominent maybe that would be easier? But even in this stage, I think this game is really nice and well done, and very innovative. Congratulations :)

One of the most beautiful games I've seen around this jam. Graphics and sound effects are over the top. The movement is fluid and the mechanic is very simplistic (which I like much). Also had a good laugh when I read the motivation behind the theme (that you guys were in deep s#!t), found this very creative. Good job with this entry, congrats!

leggy 2021-05-03 13:29

creepy and disgusting :smile: Not so easy to move the fly where you want but I guess it is fine with the concept of going dip shit. nice entry!

florianduf 2021-05-03 13:47

Great game with humour :) The audio is very good.

I love the concept even if it's a strange game.

PS: Can we dy in this game ? ^^

msipp27 2021-05-03 16:31

it wasn't working for me.

kwaku 2021-05-04 08:30

@msipp27 on HTML version? I noticed sometimes it happens and You just need to refres. Something with key events on loosing focus.

kwaku 2021-05-04 08:31

@florianduf thx :) You can indeed suffocate and then game restarts.

super-hadoken 2021-05-05 15:25

I love the quirky art style, imaginative setting and interesting gameplay. Short and sweet, cool game.

filgru 2021-05-05 17:22

Hi! Awesome graphics and idea! Everything's nicely balanced in the picture. I like the fly's design. Mechanics could be little bit more tweaked, so we could have it more control there:) It would be also nice to see some sort of a life bar, or something that tells us what's wrong with this fly:) Overall nice looking game! Congrats!!

wizard-sino 2021-05-06 23:16

the graphics are great, and i'm always a fan of ragdoll mechanics!

chrissimas 2021-05-12 15:30

I LOVE THE GRAPHICS AND THE IDEA SO MUCH!!!

kostya 2021-05-13 05:54

Amazing soundworks and animations!
