Cool game) I have really fun) Thank you) And very beautiful graphic! Good job!
I got very distracted by the music which to me resembles a strange mashup of Zelda's main theme and that one wedding song but the game was nice anyway, I would suggest a timer mechanic to incite the player to take risks, having a reason not to abuse the slow down button. Nice job!
@rongefilet Thank you. Do you mean that the music was distracting in a bad way? Would you think it should be toned down a bit? Or was it a pleasant distraction?
Definitely got me chuckling with my friend as we sat down and gave this game a try. I love the drilling visuals and the movement, though I wish the slow down mechanic was a little more useful and allowed faster turning/horizontal speed. Super fun and love the game overall!
@learus Oh not distracting at all, I just kept thinking of Link at the altar (not the time one) ^^
The visuals are great. The beggining is hands down mindblowingly cool. It really brings vibes of a quality AAA platformer. The levels itself could use more challenge in my opinion. Various enemy types for different strategies perhaps? Also the concept is very much alike with our game Deep Sweep aswell, which made me even more curious. Anyway, great entry! Good luck!
Nice, of the games I tried so far this one gave me most adrenaline yet. Coming up with a story, characters and voiceovers is appreciated as well. But I absolutely hate you for the ice level.
Mon Dieu! An excellent game! Very addictive -- and I liked the triumphant piano soundtrack.
I really like how I discovered the controls on the title screen "by accident", so when I started the game I knew exactly what was going on from the get-go -- a very clever touch!
Does seem a little tricky in places, especially on my touchpad right now -- I'll be back for more later with a real mouse :)
Everything fits together so well! The story, the characters, the art, the mechanics... I will probably have the music stuck in my head for a while.
Cool little idea, hahaha! I really had fun playing it :)
It's very simple, but it's very well executed, the controls feel very sharp and responsive, the game looks and sounds very nice and the little story in the beggining is much appreciated. I'd only add a limit to how long you can slow down for, cause as of now it's very exploitable, anyway, incredible job in making this! Also i loved that little waltz at the beggining a lot c:
@vitor-milioni Thanks for the kind words! Yeah we thought of adding a limit to the brakes, but then we noticed that using the brakes too much actually could hinder the player, so we left it as is.
Great intro! The game mechanic was a little bit "boring" for me. :-D
The intro alraedy drives the whole game home, haha. The music's catchy tune helped with keeping me engaged for much much longer than I had anticipated. It's simple yet very effective.
it's a good simple game, but music, art and voice acting are very good, but it would be better to add checkpoints between layers of ground. Well done!
@bobafett89 Hahaha I had a friend make a similar request.
The game is quite challenging and the slow motion mechanic helps a lot :) Great job! Also, I did a very similar game for the jam and I was shocked when I saw your thumbnail haha!
Short and sweet, funny, good art and nice music. Addition of the slow mo is a really nice quality of life feature, great work!
What a nice game, I liked the premise, graphics and, of course, voice acting. This game feels very refreshing.
Very funny, and good job making all the sound. The music is great! Well done!
really nice music! would have been cool if the bgm also slowed down when holding down lmb to reinforce the mechanic. also nice little story, could definitely see this concept expanded!
Really enjoyed this one. Graphics are nice, the particle effects especially. The music is fantastic - you can tell someone with serious skill wrote those pieces. Also, fantastic voice acting :smile: sounds like you had a lot of fun with the recording.
Only thing I want to complain about is that sometimes even with slowdown not being hit is incredibly hard, especially at the beginning of a new section. Maybe you could simply solve this by introducing checkpoints at every new section.
That is incredible! Loved your intro with the cool piano soundtrack and the voiceovers. I'm definitely gonna keep that gem :heart: :large_blue_diamond:
Love how you introduce theme)
Anything but 'boring'! :P Great game, awesome backing music, excellent VO, and _just_ difficult enough to have me saying "OK, just one more go.."
Only suggestions I have is to add a way to exit the game, and having some sort of cool down/limit on the slow down effect
I like this kind of movement mechanic in a limited arc since I did something similar in an old LD years ago. It's also a nice touch how the view distance increases when you slow down.
I did die three or four times in a row at the beginning of the stone area, so maybe that turn is too sharp, though I may also have been going a bit too fast.
I really like the mood of the third area! The art and music there give it a really menacing vibe.
This is a nice little addictive game. Loved the piano music, especially the first stage theme, going to be stuck in my head all day! Loved the pixel art and voice overs too, great accents!
I really liked the voice acting and sound design here. I got a bit frustrated with the gameplay, since I didn't always feel that I had time to react to the rock formations. I lost a bunch of runs to the second section, and then nailed the third on my first try. The ending is really well done.
