Michael's Grand Escape!

I was in a panic from the moment I started the game and I mean that in a positive way. Understanding the enemy mechanics was a fun thing to do, trying to sneak past everyone was fun as well. The controls are nice, the movement feels fluid but maybe a bit slow overall. I love the characters you develop and I had a good time. The only thing I would change is to introduce some kind of checkpoint system because it felt incredibly punishing being caught a bit into the level and having to start all over again. Other than that, great stealth platformer. May Michael get his freedom.

Maybe need some checkpoint. The game is difficult and I cannot even pass the first three enemy 0.0

Refreshing to see a stealth platformer in a game jam, especially with a more whimsical feel. A bit of audio would've been nice, and I echo earlier comments about checkpoints and the sluggishness. However, I quite liked this! Nice job!

Great puzzle platformer. I really hate the fast pink creature (in good gameplay enhancing way )haha

Hello fellow spore type game designer. Quick and short, love it. Nice little platformer with a hiding mechanic :)xd223.png

Neat! Even in silence it was fun.

Fun little game, some of the parts near the end were frustrating :joy: Keep on making games :smile:

It was short & fun. Perfect game jam game. The big pixelated leaves background killed the mood a bit, but all the other graphics were nice, Rodrick is very cute:3 I like how it incorporated even an in-game tutorial. Wow. I would love to see an expanded version with some more mechanics and characters in the future, keeping the story/theme as is.

Short, sweet and nice to play. The perfect length for a game jam! :smile:

I really like the character art, really sells that whimsical premise.

nice game! I like the art, the controls are responsive and the gameplay is a challenging platformer, overall, I enjoyed playing this one! keep it up!

Very short, but challenging enough so I didn't manage to finish at first try, so: good job!

Really like the art style and the incorporation of the hiding element. It was a little bit frustrating to get the jump in the last level - it felt a little but unintuitive. But overall, a nice small game!

short and sweet, simple and fun. It is indeed a nice entry! I believe the graphic could be polished a little more if more time was given. Good luck!
