I'm blown away! It starts, and I'm all... "ha, little cut out cardboard animations, very cute" then suddenly it's incredible moving platforms and beautiful lighting and talking spiders. What an experience!

This is one of the coolest looking games I've seen in a long time. How did you manage to make it so hyperrealistic but also stylized!? Very cool game, I think this has a good chance of getting #1 on graphics!
It looks unusual and cozy
Wow! This is probably the most beatiful Jam Game I've ever played :D I know its unreal engine but the models and the lighting makes this look sooo good. The Gameplay itself is a simple Platformer but very well executed. Great Job to you and your daughter!
Awesome art direction and great sound design :)
OMG 1.3 GB!
Great idea of making a cardboard theater! A shocking experience to see this in an LD jam.
Lovely little game! I adore the "miniature" look of everything, great use of lighting to create scenic variety in a world made entirely out of cardboard
I love this, it's adorable and wholesome! :heart:
The cardboard world with the characters drawn on them is super charming and the lighting is gorgeous!
stop motion aesthetic is just the best idea, i'm in love!
This is such a great idea! The use of cardboard with drawings--I love it!
НЕВЕРОЯТНО КРУТО! но не хватило субтитров во время диалогов с нпс(( тяжело воспринимаю текст на слух(( ещё был то ли баг, то ли так задумано. но после ухода от кота и собаки в самом начале - не видно куда идёт главный персонаж, парочку раз умерла из-за этого( после разговора с пришельцем - камера встала в статичное обычное положение. также не хватило возможности выйти в меню и отредачить звуки.
НО ГРАФИКА И ЗАДУМКА НЕРЕАЛЬНО КРУТЫЕ!! Я ОЧЕНЬ ВОСХИЩЕНА!! 10/10
Really nice art and game design. sadly i wasn't able to enjoy it to full extend beacause for me at least it was rather laggy. But all in all a cool game
Excellent work here. Love the style and art approach! really stands out. Very nice.
I loved this game! It was so cute & so well made. The cardboard setting, hand drawn pictures and death sounds were definitely my favorite. Also, I'm not very good at platformers so saving my spot was a nice touch! Great job!
Super cute from the drawings to the cardboard world! Almost feels like it was actually made by real cardboard.
I'm thrilled! You are an absolute genius! Applause for the art and level design, and for the unique idea of a cardboard world. I have to show this to my fellow participants. It was my first experience in jam, and I never expected to see such unique projects here. Your game has won my heart! Brilliant work!
Nice and cute, it's cool to see a father and his daughter collaborating for a Ludum Dare entry. I don't know Unreal Engine and I would like know more about the process to create all the the cardboard decor. Is it prefab or have you created it from photos ? Keep up the good work to you two ❤️❤️❤️
@patbgames thanks! The cardboard meshes are all procedural created in Houdini, I spat out a bunch of variations for each shape from there.
Cheers!
Awesome entry! The visuals are unusual but I love it! (my pc... less so :sweat_smile:) I had some trouble navigating but I got there in the end! was a lovely platforming experience!
Great art i like it, also game is matching with theme so 10/10
Creating a cardboard world with your kid? (tick) Digitally, in a jam? (tick) Backlit with handdrawn art? This deserves a lot of attention - well done indeed! :)
absolutely love the graphic. Not sure if the game has an ending, though the cardboard world still looks amazing!
Nice controls and beautiful graphics. I had fun! Well done!
I collected three webs and after closing the spider quest the camera broke and my kitten got stuck in the right part of the screen. the third sphere could not find, but I was able to jump out of the map into the darkness under the music beautifully. this game very successfully combines simplicity and fascination of all aspects. thank you!
