Gorgeous art and solid gameplay! 🚀 Could you please rate our game, LUMIRIC CHASE?

The art looks beautiful. The gameplay is nice, even if it's a classic platformer I think the addition of the theme's mechanics make it special. Great entry!

well done for all the work done! Maybe the effect on the screen (CRT/grésillement) are a bit too strong and can disturb the player.

The graphics are very nice, but jumping to the other side takes too much effort, which made the experience less enjoyable for me.

Very nice paralax!

cool graphics and gameplay, but jumping physics are a bit wacky. Artstyle is great! Good job overall!

Outstanding visuals and VFX. Goal is clear and matches the theme, well done. Controls, especially jumping sometimes surprising though. Checkpoints on the terminals would be great and bit faster game over for smooth expirience. Verty solid game :yellow_heart:

Simple yet very enjoyable game.

love the art and music, gameplay has no innovations or smth but overall looks good

I like your art style. Not sure I agree with reducing visual clarity when the signal strength gets low. I found it basically impossible to do anything once it got to 30-40s. I think it's more fun when the player has more agency when time is running out rather than less.

Whoa! This looks and sounds incredible! The music totally enhances the tense vibe from the resource constraints. All in all, the style and easy-to-grasp gameplay make this well worth your time. Awesome job!

Nailed the atmosphere and tone for the game. Nice variety of platforming in different zones. I got to the point where I had five computers left. I have no idea where they are, no clear indicator or open path unlike with the others. The loss of signal effect is nice although I think it could ramp up slower. Now, even when you have "plenty" signal left to play with, the game gets very hard to play.

Good job!

Really great entry, very polished. I loved the graphics, the sound, the computer startup sound :D

I kept having a feeling that the game is "baiting" me to go one way, only to find I can't make it going that way, making me more engaged and paying closer attention to the level. Ihope that was your goal, if so, good job :)

I missed the fact that I need to wait for the computer to start before uploading the datapads and only did it at 3rd computer, skipping the 1st two.

cutie game i like the aesthetics!

Love the concept of an automaton recovering human echoes! The atmosphere is great, and the 'signal management' mechanic adds a nice layer of tension. Solid entry!

This is cute! The artwork is lovely and clean... until it goes static! see what you did there.

The game concept is really great and the scene design is also excellent. It's a very good game.

Really impressive graphics and mood. Felt like after the apocalypse. The level design was good and varied with different areas. The music and the static effect really helped sell the atmosphere. Great work!
