haha this was good fun, but I'd like space to also be the restart button as I suck at the game and had to restart a LOT, and I think it would have improved the flow of the game if I didn't have to move my hand over to enter every time I died
really funny concept and the art and sound effects fit perfectly! gameplay is simple but in a good way! props!
Super cool game!
The art music and mechanics all go really well together! Goodjob with the signals for when you are about to be caught. The "Gotcha" time you can get caught by the other cultists feels a bit quick maybe? overall though I enjoyed the game, especilly the cultist following jump puzzles.
I liked the sounds and graphics! Vision cones in a platformer is cool to see too.
Pretty well done platformer. It's a bit difficult to get what to do but after a few minutes I've figured it out.
Liked the art, sound effects and music. Controls were a little touchy but that added some charm to the game. Really liked the tunnel of infinitely falling cultists! Also liked how in the "escort mission" you didn't have to restart from the beginning every time. Fun little game!
Took me a while to figure out the AI that followed you when jumping and stuff but once I got that it was really cool. Music was really moody and great, well done!
Nice innovative interpretation of the theme, also liked the graphics, good job!
Funny and cool concept, the gameplay can be frustrating though.
I loved it! The theme, the mechanichs is smart too. I really liked the gimmick of the dead cultists robes and the jumping cultist. The only tiny bother is the solid is a bit slippy. An personal advice is to change the appearance of the jumping cultist so you could already know what behavior to expect of him. But in overall is an amazing casual game!
Good idea and mechanics, it got more difficult as I progressed through the game! nice job!
fun game, reall nice idea, reminds me of Lemmings. Would have liked the controls to be a bit slower/heavier though it sometimes felt hard to position yourself where you wanted to be because everything was moving a bit fast
Good game! Funny ^^ Is there a pattern for cultists who jump, because I had some difficulties to attract them in hole? Thanks fot your game
VERY COOL GAME MECHANICS!
Fun game ! I love the fact that you use the corpse to continue, that's a really good twist to the common platfomer ! Good concept and good implementation, but sometimes, some cultists doesn't follow me. I don't know if it's a bug or if cultists have different AI, but if it is the later, maybe you should differentiate them ^^'. Otherwise, that's a good game, and I am impressed that you had the time to do that many levels !
More cultists on the jam! =) Nice work!
Nice mechanics !
Thank you all for the nice comments!
@simex: That idea is actually really good, and I've already talked about it, thanks!
@lucas-viana and @metalfox-dioxymore : Different cultists were supposed to have different appearances but we didn't have time for that (We also planned more cultist types but ended using 2 with some variants, followers and non followers, and wanderers vs statics, mixed up between them)
@chtimy: I'm not sure I understood the question, but cultists who follow you will jump if you are above them (Higher Y position basically).
@thisismatt & @diabolical-sloth : The "Gotcha" timer, overall player speed and movement and some other mechanics needed a bit more of "beta testing" and balancing, but we left them like that because we thought it was good enough for a 3 day game xD But we plan to change everything a bit if we continue with the game
Interesting meechaninc, it is fun!
took me a bit to realize that i had to push the little bugger into the pit, i thought i had to jump over it, then i tried jumping on it, then i stood there hitting buttons to try and figure it out. then the last thing i tried was to push it, and then i finally got it. maybe a bit of a heads up in game on what you need to do specifically.
Ohh great graphic and sounds. Nice character! I have really fun to play this game! Good mechanics! Thank you)
Great game! Had a lot of fun playing it. Hope to see more in the future!
I won! Had a lot of fun.
Such a cool mechanic to play with! The sounds the cultists make all the way to the background were all so nicely made! I look forward to seeing more of this in the future.
