Movement was a little slow, but honestly that was really awesome. The animations are great, the visuals are beautiful and the music is very pleasant. Great job!

You should be ashamed of yourself.
Well...that was interesting...
That was really fun, though it was really frustrating getting the gold above the castle, if you fall in the camera was hard to control.
The powers were cool and it was nice to feel like I was getting more powerful as I collected the relics. Very good!
Great work! I couldn't find anyone else unfortunately but shows huge potential! Post Mortem please!
Interesting idea, though a bit repetitive.
Same as others, not working
Yeah it needs something to win/lose from. I thought the black parts were holes but I guess it was oil that speeds you up? It's a good start, could be really fun with a bit more work.
An objective would have been cool, like hunt down x elephants etc... Graphics are very nice and the theme was awesome, you really made me feel like a monster!
Really cool idea! The vision mechanic was really well done.
It was fun though the controls were a little slow, especially when turning. I enjoyed it though!
I wasn't sure what I was doing, but don't let that put you off! You made something and got it out there, that's more than so many people. Keep at it, maybe get people play testing if you can!
Great monster! Some bugs but you seem to know about them already. Nice entry!
Interesting
Keep working on this, use the feedback you get from this and try to get a lot more. You've made a really cool game that could be a lot more!
Thanks everyone! Sorry for the hitboxes, they were hard to get sorted perfectly. Glad you guys like the art!
Thanks again everyone! Basically everything you guys have said are things we wanted in the game however I'm still learning Construct so there were a lot of things I couldn't get in in time. I'll do better next time!
@Rialgar Yeah I wanted to get a bit more visual feedback in there but just didn't have the time unfortunately, will certainly work on that more in future jams though.
Thanks everyone!
Fun little game, polish those graphics and sound and it would be even better.
Feels like an old school arcade game, very cool!
The atmosphere was really cool and the graphics were really well done for a jam game!
Was a bit boring since it was just a back and forth game. Art and sound was nice though
Really nice art and the file being called "I am malware" was a great thematic touch. As you've probably read already, the design could have been a little better just to make things a bit easier, however this is still a really cool entry!
You should change your "Web" link to be a download instead. Fun game, if a little challenging.
The art was nice and I enjoyed the music. I wasn't a fan of the gameplay, there wasn't a clearly defined win or lose condition, I could just stand there forever and nothing happens, which was a shame for me.
I can see the appeal for players that love to be powerful and unkillable though.
I really liked the style!
Making an engine and a game is a great accomplishment! I'd have loved to see what you could do with an established engine.
The UI was beautiful and the gameplay was fun. The jumping was a little bit frustrating at first, I kept bouncing into hearts. Great entry!
It was hard but fun, good work!
Very cute art!
Cool concept, nice mechanics, and cool art. Thumbs up!
Really nice environment! Wasn't much going on though and I kept thinking I should be able to run under tables
Getting more points was hard but I really like all the things you can buy! Very nice overall
Nice job! Really liked the music. Very cool to see a rhythm game in the jam. I've not seen anyone else do one yet!
Very cool concept would love to see it developed further so we can take our knowledge of the mechanics and keep applying them to future levels.
Really simple idea very well executed! I really enjoyed the visuals and the mood. Great job!
Unfortunately something breaks for me when I connect Boomie to the line. The whole game freezes and nothing works.
Thanks!
Very high quality! The voxel art, animations, how the level changed over time. Loved it! Fantastic work - you should all be very proud!
I hesitate to imagine what you went through to get those sound effects. Interesting take on the theme!
This is a tough game - which is good! I found myself wanting to do just one more so many times. Really cool use of theme, and nice minimal graphics. Great job!
Nice atmosphere and difficult puzzles!
Loved it! So cute and well executed theme. We had a small issue where we couldn't run on the wheel, but other than that it was great!
Very nice photography and you nailed the mood!
That was hilarious. Awesome job on the physics. The controls could have easily been frustrating, but you nailed it. I got there in 48 seconds!
Very grim! Really nice artwork and music!
Ah really cool! I particularly enjoyed the health system to stop the player just doing the hurt action over and over again! Awesome job!
Unique take on the theme. Hard to control at times. Good job!
Similar to Disco Pope - it reminded me of an old school arcade game. Nice work!
Very trippy! Made my head feel weird. Loved it!
This is the sort of game I was excited about playing with this theme. Really well done! I don't wanna spoil anything, but it's more than just an endless loop!
Really nice look to the game with the crt monitor!
@nate-wert thank you for playing! My wife did an excellent job with the artwork and I'm happy to hear her fabric idea was well received.
@gevernus thanks for playing! Simple and cute is what we were going for :)
@dominium11 thank you! I'm really proud of the job my wife did on the art.
@letterafterz Thank you very much for playing it and leaving us your feedback! Glad you liked the art style!
40 seconds? Wow nice job - that's higher than my wife's high score :)
@axeltherabbit thank you! My wife did such a great job!
@thecze Aww that'll make my wife so happy! She worked really hard on the art, and it's so lovely to see the nice comments about it. I'm really glad you enjoyed the game. Thank you very much for playing it!
@deedz Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed it :) My record on mobile is 69 seconds, my wife got 37 seconds. On PC I've had around 150 seconds. I'm sure there is someone out there that can beat these scores!
@chocolat-endive Thank you so much for the kind words! We wanted to do a high score system, but unfortunately ran out of time.
@heho Thank you very much!
@duanra Thank you very much for the kind words!
@geegaz Thank you for the feedback! And thanks for playing. Glad you enjoyed it :)
@andriirinah Thank you!
@eugenik Aww thank you very much! I'm really pleased with the scope we set to achieve something well polished!
@nikolai-shkurkin Thank you for the kind words about the artwork! We were super happy with how that turned out :)
Those are some fantastic suggestions for improving the readability of the projectiles... I wish we would have thought of those last week haha.
You're welcome! Great game jam all around :)
@spyranteros Thank you! We always have a blast making things and being creative together, this seemed like a no-brainer to join!
@klaus-peter You're not wrong... :)
@etrealjunior Thanks!
@saunik Thank you very much :)
@etrealjunior Yeah I really enjoy using Construct - I think it's such an underrated engine! Thank you for the kind words and feedback!
@merzlot Thank you!
@olima Thank you for the kind words! You're the first to mention the title haha
@teronk Thank you!
@arron-fowler Thank you very much for the kind words! We need more squirrel games!
@sli Thank you! Yeah varying difficulties and more of a difficulty curve were things we would have added if we had more time for sure.
Worked really well for me on web. Great graphics and audio. Enemies were cool having the variety they had. Awesome job!
Ooh cool little puzzle game! Great job :)
Awesome job! Love that the loop has a concept. Also really enjoyed the different games presented. Fantastic result!
Really nice artwork and lovely simple design executed very well. Good interpretation of the theme. Nice job!
No link
Cool idea and great effort! I really enjoyed the animations and the music. As others have mentioned it would have been cool to put the zombies further in the level instead of right behind the green balls. Nice job!
Very short. Does moving to the scissors just remove the hula hoop or did I miss something more? Cool idea though to escape something binding you.
