I can’t get past the bridge; it unfortunately seems not to have any collision. Had a feeling it was possible to change from the dark world and back, but it seems like it a one-way road, not sure if intended or not. On the other hand, visually game is amazing, title screen and main character especially.

@shabby-sparrow thank you! I will fix this bugs today)

It's hard to progress when world switching is "random". It can make it quite a waiting game. However, graphics are cool, love the character!

I like the main character. Very cute UwU Good that you implemented the character re-spawn after falling into the abyss. Liked the different worlds idea. I collected all of the flowers but nothing happened? Also, adding some ambiance sound would help a lot ^^

Collected all the plants, filled up the monument... now what? Was some event supposed to trigger? Did I won?

That issue aside, this is a really cool take on the theme! I love dimension-hopping as a concept, so this was good fun. The art was really cute too!

Would've liked to have seen some music or at least some ambiance for each world besides just the first, but time crunches be time crunches, amirite?

ambear 2022-10-04 17:30

@raivk yeah, I found this as a problem too, maybe I will add something like closing access to dimensions where u already collected a plant @wiktoria-kos @labtoast yeah, time is really crunches and I didn't make right way ending of the game, and sounds, and actually anything else I'm updating game right now Fix some bugs for jam and add new features (or change them) outside jam Thank you all for responding! Graphics actually my thing in all of my game jams haha

I really like the art design and it's so sad that the sound is only in one world! It would be feel more alive and varied. But the game is good anyway!

Amazing game. Really catchy graphics. Some work can be done from the gameplay side and can be a made a bit more complex. I think the 10 second rule did redistricted a lot of possibilities. Please do check out my submission as well.

Fun! super interesting to play with a clear goal and fun mechanic! Well done!

I really liked the character design! The flatness but still not completely flat head. The game was a bit disorienting at start but became simpler and simpler the more flower were picked which was nice but also a bit unfortunate as it's generally better to add complexity as the game progresses.

It was generally easy to understand though, and the objectives were clearly marked visually so that compensated for the disorientation. It might have been nice if the transition between worlds took a bit longer and faded from one to the other. Though I get it would be much harder to construct.

Finally the lotus was a bit annoying to pick up since I ended up below it without the pick up trigger activating.

@local-minimum Yeaaaah, some fade between worlds would be great, should be add in next update haha Thank you

Lovely design! Kinda makes me calm~

fgamer99 2022-10-08 19:54

I rellz like the visuals. With more levels, some music and an esc menu it could be an interesting game.

I liked the overall mood! The calm atmosphere made me go until the end. I don't know if it's normal, but after collecting everything, I was put in the "green" world for 10 seconds, then back in the corruption world for eternity ;( With just a little ambient music loop and a little bug fix for staying in the waterfall after the end it would make a great submission!

ambear 2022-10-12 06:25

@other-thinking actually this is not bug when you stay in the corruption after ending, but this is where this world "should" heal, but implementation of it was corrupted too xd Thank you

macaroni-dev 2022-10-21 02:53

I really liked the looks of all the different worlds. Especially the corrupt world.

I may have hit a bug at first - I hit Q before grabbing the item and it never did the world switching.

I restarted and got the item and it all worked fine and I was able to finish :)

ambear 2022-10-21 03:49

@macaroni-dev yeah there was this bug) I think it was fixed in v0.0.2

I enjoyed playing this game! I found the camera control was way too sensitive and I would have liked to change it, but the game itself has its own unique identity and I thought it was really interesting. I loved the change of worlds, all of the different worlds looked so different and were so nice to navigate - it's a pity that they had to change every 10 seconds because I think it would be nicer to be able to explore them all at your own pace, especially considering that the character doesn't move fast enough to usually reach your goal before the world changes. I thought the character was really cute too! The ending was a bit confusing because I was back inside the house for a little bit and then teleported to the corrupted world and nothing else seemed to happen after that. Overall, I'm really glad I played this entry, good work!

Amazing worlds you conjured up! Really liked the very different styles of planes. The protagonist's design is furthermore very recognizable - I liked that fella from the get go.
