good
Vibe was really good! Good job
A nice short 3d platformer. Could have benefitted from some form of tutorial or instructions to tell the player what they're trying to do. I didn't realize you could "win" until I had basically been playing around in it as a walking simulator for a bit, and then noticed that the map was trying to lead up to an end point. Though given all this was done in 48 hours, I understand that you can't always implement everything you want.
Nice mood and interesting concept! Impressive you did so much on your own! Couldn't figure out the use of the feather ability and had a bit of trouble to find where to go at first. Also there seem to be a cooldown on the bridge ability (or some other condition to place it that I couldn't figure out) that made it annoying for the last part where you have to use 3 consecutive bridges.
The mouse sensitivity is way over-tuned, I nearly gave up because of it. Not knowing what to do in the first place and having to guess what each power did was pretty frustrating too. Not knowing which route to take once I gave myself the goal to go higher was another near-quit point. I ended up winning, without any crash and not that many lag spikes, while using proton 7.0-6 to run the game (if any other linuxian wants to try the game).
I will add that having to wait for the platform you spawned to disappear before being able to spawn a new one is pretty frustrating towards the end, where (in one of the possibly several paths you can take to get to the end, don't know, gave up in my search for another one) you have to use 3 of them in a short succession. Still, the graphics are pretty good
I like the feel of this area though a little more guidance would have helped me.
Very creative game, I liked how many different tools I had. Game looked great as well, good effects, good lighting, and a working pause menu! I was a bit confused for a while but eventually was able to figure things out. It could be good to introduce tools one at a time to not overwhelm the player right up front, but either way, great work on this one!
Cool game. Took me a few minutes to figure out how to get out of the starting area, but everything else was easy. I did kinda cheese my way up to a ledge that im not sure if i was supposed to do that way with putting a glass box down then a platform then 3 glass boxes on top of that but it managed to make it to the end so i count that as a success.
