Never made it to the winged one... it hard ! But I really, reeeaaally enjoyed it ! Congrats :)
Mmh, I've just beat your game... the start is too much difficult, and the end is too easy :) but i have liked it, it was fun and challenging ^^
Congratulations, this is epic :)
Mmmh, what I did : went out of the map; killed a squid in a block and can't reach the food; been killed quickly the the red anglerfish XD
Btw it's a cool game :)
Very good game, I didn't succeed to pass the 9th level xD (and I don't wan't to use 'V', I don't deserve to see the end ^^)
I must admit that... I rage-quited on the "first?) "soul" level... .. . XD congratulation for the rest btw :D
First impression : Wow, cool graphisms, and the music remind me of Zelda on GBC :D
Second impression : Guy, this is way too hard, the gravity is too strong ! You die before reaching the spikes !
Third impression : A cube ?! I MUST get the others.
Fourth impression : Okay, I just finished the game... Very good game ! Congratulations (but the gravity is definitly too much strong)
Innovative, fun to play and the music does make a good ambiance... Congratulations :D
Crashes too when I went up of the second map : (Win 7 x32)

224 seconds to level 14, yeaheah :D
In my opinion, the double jump is not a good idea... if you double-tape space very quick, you can jump exessively high...
2:59 =D
Well, no matter what you say, I do think that's some very good art and music! Gameplay was on point too, very confortable movements (is the ability to jump after falling of a platform a feature or a "feature"?). Clever idea for the "more visibility, worse it is" :heart:
So, awesome entry. Loved it!
Clever mecanics, nice music and globally a fun game =D
The apprearing mouses could have used a warning where they're about to land, and a excluded spawn zone around the player... I got killed by a falling mouse appearing above my head =( But it's a very good job anyway!
Pep video neptessa era porveloupen. Very well pode dna fun entry,
Nice ga... wait, voices? :astonished: that's so cool! x)
Simple yet beautiful graphics, and nice gameplay (took a bit of time to understand though =p). The music was a bit repetitive, but very nice game anyway =)
Quick, add Unity .dll before anyone sees it's not there! xD
Sooo, nice game =D Makes me want to play it with another player!
Too bad the ennemy IA was a bit too simple, it empties his guns and wait for me to end his suffering =) (not enough randomness also : if the enemy spawn at the same place, it will start to behave the same way). Otherwise, that's a cool entry, good job =)
+ French title and QWERTY keyboard, what is this trickery?
Really awesome submission. If there is only one negative thing to say, it's that I had a hard time de-syncing my jump-stomp rhythm from the one of the background music... that don't match the box falling cadency. That little thing apart, everything is beyond perfection.
Wow wow wow, really awesome entry here! The feeling (art + music + game speed + ...) is outstanding! The puzzles were on point too (although not quite in ascending difficulty order).
A few bugs (like on the level with the destructured floor you can touch the goal briefly by jumping from the bottom), but nothing really important. The isometric perspective + weird control directions makes it hard to see where we're going, but that's almost part of the fun.
Don't need rice, 10/10
Wow, very good game here =O I spent a loooong time on level 9 and 11 =D
Only negative thing I see : The glass can't go into the coffee pot.
Great job, awesome entry
Cool game. I went through the end door, and nothing happened, I get blocked by an invisible wall... Is this normal ? =(
The graphics were pretty even (excepted for the ennemy sprite with x2 pixels). Way too slow movement speed though... =x
Global ambiance was on point =)
So... I started dashing like a madman and ended with a 1px long pencil XD
Very, very, very clever mecanism, and very well done game. The graphics could be have been a bit more polished, but it's still very fun and a bit addictive. I ended up playing longer than expected =)
Thanks y'all for nice feedback =D I'll try to play your games as much as possible too!
@dimaswift Got it, I added a zipped download link =)
@Mathiouza I'm so stupid! I voluntarely added the ability to go out the right of the map (was the 'go to next level' action at first, but decided against it) and didn't removed it... .. .
@hatchet I initially planned to implement that kind of a compromise between killing (/scoring ?) and staying strong. I finally gave it up after unsucessfully finding how to make a nice gameplay with that =)
Wew, very nice and polished game. Was easier after putting all the useless stuff in a corner of the room, and making people eating on the oven x)
I love the little blizzard-esque touch with the ballon <3
Nice game =D May be a bit slow to get to the challenging part, and starting to loose fps after day 7/8 (especially at the end of each day, it gets really hard to move). Good job anyway =)
Nice game, beautiful graphics =D Too bad the nice dual cutting mecanism isn't used to restrain movements and put some puzzly-challengy elements in there (and aiming us toward the level end). Could have used a very enjoyable cutting sound too ^^'
Anyway, have some hearts too =) :heart: :heart: :heart:
Looks at how much presents I'm carrying! Better call me Santa now =D
Very nice game, have a lot of fun playing it, and did played it muuuuch more than expected. Too bad there is no ending after having bought everything from the store and became the burglar lord himself. The animations, however, are really awesome!
Btw, what kind of family lives in a tiny house, have a $75 computer, but EIGHT $150 gifts for christmas ? :joy:
Playable and bug-free game, that's a good thing =) Could have used a bit more polishing, more graphics/less fonts, and a victory screen ? Nice job anyway.
Really awesome graphics, really hard game =O I'm ashammed to admit that I gave up on the third level. Those tailed lifeform are atrocious!
Otherwise, good entry =)
More a cinematic walk than the puzzle game I was expecting from the gravity-changing mechanic, but it was enjoyable!
The fact that you keep (or quickly regain) your momentum while changing gravity is a bit weird, I often shoot myself where I didn't want to. I also locked myself on level 4 by trying a sneaky shortcut and jumping all the way to the end gate =D
Apart from that, I liked it, the omnious mood with statues everywhere was surprising =)
Really nice entry, I loved it! With a little more hints on the costs/rewards of things it would be perfect. Unfortunately I had to stop when I got locked with no more mobs incoming and unable to go deeper =(
Tower defences are always great =D
Central, I processed to play the game. It's daaamn hot, Central.
As always, stunnings visuals, this fire really scares me! The backdraft really are impressive! And it make extinguishing this even more satisfying, if only there were a "psssht" sound =D
As for the ending, it's so frustrating, I wanted to know more, learn why were those nuclear symbols here...
Gameplay-wise, I thinks some balancing could be done to the level length, and to the fire visibility. It's a bit harsh dying to the smallest almost-invisible leftover ember, and having to start again from the beginning the levels (that gets loooong by the end). Maybe the opened doors could stay open and fire re-spread only a bit?
Central? Why aren't you responding?
Too bad there not a "game name pun" category, I'd rate it 6 stars out of 5 =D
Very awesome game, loved it, it was nicely challenging to reach the bottom! I had a hard time understanding that the fishes' color represents the way to handle them, and once I did I still died once because I spent too much time defending and not enough going deeper. I still don't really know what positive effect the bubbles have tho ^^ (and what's the point of moving into empty rooms, you don't seem to be able to repair them?)
The game is balanced, it was enjoyable! The only thing I'd add would be more visual indications of what's going on, like radio signal sucessful response, fishes starting to go away, the fact that you'll be able to buy upgrades only once, etc.
Overall, I really liked it, especially the UI art and design was perfect! Those buttons, sooo clicky <3
Thanks for the nice feebacks!
> On PC I think a mouse would’ve added cool quick gameplay
Daaamn, I wish I thought of that, it's a good idea...
Can someone please stop @aboogoost ? This demi-god is stealing the leaderboard and my usually-top1-brother Alfear won't sleep until he's back there. I'm worrying for his health. EDIT: Too late. He didn't sleep.
Jokes aside, thanks all for your amazing feedbacks. I'm really learning a lot from them! I'm adding three rules to my usual gamejam to-do set : "In less than 10 minutes, Ludum Dare players should have understood what the game has in its belly", "Really take some time to find controls that feel naturals to most players, including mouse and controllers" and "Each game rule should be explained indepentently from each other, by the game/level design at some point".
Gonna use them wisely in my future jam games <3
@madbarron Wow wow wow, how did you do that? Did you stayed on the elevator, only dodging ghosts? Impressive anyway! If however you did this by mining and comboing, I'd give anything for a record of your play! (I see there's competition within the Deep Cover team, I hope I didn't start anything bad! :grin: )
I managed to reach checkpoint 7(?) before the horrible room with 3 doors. 428 deaths in, I can't take any more, this is the first game of this jam that I give up on. In was incredibly fun tho, I really enjoyed it (and got to see a secret message, but I'm not sure I was the target, my name isn't Mina =D).
To nitpick, the only things I'll change would be the spaceship hitbox (it's super frustrating to die hitting the top corners of the square), and the placement/spacing of the checkpoints, some feels weird, some need too much re-doing when you die. My opinion, tho =)
Congrats on the awesome submission!
Very innovative idea, I love to see exerimental games that pushes the boundaries of our domain <3
I was a bit shocked to see the dialog tree end after a very few choices, so I refreshed the page many time and tried different paths, it was cool. I really had the feeling of chatting with someone =D
The game rendering was a bit weird on my screen size, apart from that, the visuals were nice too.
Congrats on your submission =)
"Fin, thanks for playing" <- Nice pun, I got it! =D
Nice little game, I had fun! Had a laugh when my wife answered the phone and the fish started spinning like a wheel, spitting everywhere x)
Too bad you didn't have the time to implement the deep pitch mechanics to go along with the theme, but the gameplay is already nice with the volume alone =)
If the menus would be voice-controlled too, this would have been awesome (and a nice exemple of game accessibility toward disabled peoples!)
The fish art are very clean, but I thinks with just a little more effects the game would look perfect (the fish spiraling into level ends for exemple).
Nice entry! I must admit playing it longer than I planned to =D
The gameplay and progression feels a bit like a clicker/idle game, that's actually satisfying. And digging strait down super fast after a while is really fun!
The art needs a lot of refining, obviously, but it gets to the point ^^ I feel like progression-wise some balancing could be done, I almost locked myself when I bought heat resistance before mining speed, and was stuck in a slow-mining hell where I couldn't suicide, and it would have took ages to get back up.
I was a bit dissapointed to reach the purple blocks after depth 1015, it's kinda a "can't go further" game end with the inneficient mining speed. The death message made me believe there would be a area with low visibility after =D
Overall, I enjoyed it!
Nice game! I enjoyed it!
I think I had a little bug when the game locked me on "as you grow old, you grow impatient [...]", unable to pick a choice. Finally, I killed someone, reached an end, got to relax with my favorite jawbreaker, but it says "game over", did I win?
Overall, the story is nice and immersive, but I found it hard to know what I was doing. I couldn't really "choose" which path to follow, as some of them lead to instant death. Maybe clear textual choices instead of icons would have helped? I don't know =) It would also have been nice to know when and why we got something added to our inventory, I often opened it and was like "ooh, when did I looted that?". It would have allowed us to better learn what's the best path for future plays =D
> Did you hear the shot at the end?
I did, yes! I found it to be an awesome twist/loop on the story =D
Nice game, love the feeling of running anywhere scoring huge combos, lot of liberty to play how you prefer and go where you want :heart:
The global polish is very nice: every thing is in-place and coherent. The random voiceover lines were a nice touch! "Harvest Moon" goal got a laugh out of me
I really enjoyed playing it :grin:
firefox_2023-01-10_20-25-01.png
@kodingnights seems like it's a CTF+Chrome problem, try Firefox, or copying/pasting the link! Sorry for the inconvenience =(
Thanks for playing y'all, and thanks for your feedbacks <3
> kodingnights : I would love to be able to abort harvesting the turnips though
You'd love indeed, but wouldn't it defeat the whole dying-of-combine-harvester-if-you're-greedy thing? =D
> 0xWAVY : Wish I could play this one, but I’m on mac
Sorry, the html exporter is a pain to get working with Clickteam Fusion... I'll take a look at porting it in the coming days, and ping you if I manage to get something working =(
> superpokeunicorn : I do feel that the game rewards overly cautious play
Indeed... until the acceleration point where your only choices left are "take big risks to earn point" vs. "watch your score get slowly eaten away" (at least, that's my purposely-designed intent)
> superpokeunicorn : Feels like it needs to escalate more quickly to push the player to take more risks
I already cut down a whole bunch of get-back-in-action time compared to my previous games, but maybe I should do it even more. It's a hard thing to balance with newcomer needing time to learn at first (doing an unranked tutorial level first would a be good alternative, but I never have enough time to work on it ^^)
@kodingnights Coincidentally, I also saw your reddit post on MuGen ^^ I may try having a go at it in a future jam for sure =D
@Kepsert nice words aside, your top1 score alone bring honor to my game. Thanks a lot! I'll be sure to play yours too, maybe on stream if I find some time! :heart: *(nooo, I'm not salty AT ALL to see my own score shredded.)*
Although... I don't want to spread havoc in your team tho... but this @MooNiZZ here... they're coming for you :grin:
> I managed to get stuck once where I was on-top of a turnip trying to harvest it, but it played the first frame of harvesting animation (no sound) and then just stuck there until I got run-over by the machine :(
Sorry it happened. It's actually a visual-only bug, you're still harvesting the turnip and will get unstuck after the correct amount of time. It's a tryharder-only bug as it happen when you press jump frame-perfectly right before landing on a turnip :sunglasses: Sadly, I saw it a bit too late and wasn't able to fix it before the deadline =( Still happy you enjoyed the game, very very nice score!
Thanks all for the nice feedback! :heart:
@pianoman373 What a funny coincidence that you happen to reach and die precisely at 373 :eyes: :eyes:
> sometimes, i forget the mushrooms are evil and try to bounce on it for a big bounce : (
Happened to me all the time while developping ^^' Retrospectively, I should have added non-toxic brown mushroom that just yeet you forward, for fun, for speed, and for the risk of falling into a toxic one =D I'll keep that in mind for the DLC :smirk: Still a very nice score @shreemp! Glad you liked it =)
@icylava can't believe it was that easy! Thanks a lot! :heart:
@icylava really awesome score, very impressive!! Too bad the run ended on a visual glitch, it's a bit anticlimactic ^^ (but it's visual only, the harvesting timer still ticks down)
Really mindblowing to see someone do that well, I'm honored by your dedication :heart:
Congratulations to @meep too for the second place, seeing you toe-to-toe using the apple strat made me feel like I managed to balance the various gameplays well enough so that one can choose its preference and still be on an equal footing :grin:
Thanks a lot to @Frozendoze, @Aurel300, @Ategon and @kuviman too, loved watching y'all fight on the leaderboard :two_hearts:
And kudos to @pomo for the commentator-ing, made my palms sweaty with the tension and suspense, I was thrilled during the whole event!
Clicked fish successfuly. Got bullyied. Was fun.
Tryharded clicking fish to rig your stream spinwheel. I'm gonna have nightmare of extraneous-fin fishes all week now... 😂
Lovely game, nailed aesthetic, really awesome <3
Everything was here from old scool animal crossing, the talking sounds, the little personnality word at the end of sentences, the little quests, the festival ending sharing a meal with my friendly townfolks. Incredible submission!
10/5 rating in Mood
> ~~I would’ve used lettuce emojis for the header above, but those don’t exist apparently. How do lettuce emojis not exist?~~
Not on the website, but there's always the unicode one in backup : 🥬 =D
I really liked the "pick up enemies moveset" mechanic. Focusing on dodging to the point of bullet-hell is fun too!
Maybe allowing to let the key pressed for continuous firing would have been a great addition =) A bit more-satisfying sounds (don't know how to say it but boops instead of beeps, maybe even mouth-made to keep on with the realistic cabbage picture humor). Online leaderboards are hard to implement, but good for hooking players too :grin:
Awesome take on the vampire survivor formula. The only downside is that there not much incentive to take risk, but it makes the game pretty chill... so it's not that bad :grin:
Audio is very impressive for a compo submission, very well done overall!
Impressively polished game! Very very nice job!
I had a lot of fun playing it, ah you got a few laughs off me =D
Kinda overshoot the target for the last trial, but hey... am I not a legend of jury-packing?
Voir_Dire_2024-04-15_15-23-32.png
@sariiger you're actually top 1 of "players excluding my viewers during the dev stream", well played! My own score is not that far up 👀💦
@sariiger I was about to comment that managed to top your 358 score... I but seems like I didn't enough :joy:
@sariiger The usernames are claimed by IP, yours must have changed :thinking: Do as much duplicata as you need, I'll keep the leaderboard clean as it goes =)
Congrats on the 600+, you're on fire! :fire: I'll tryhard a bit today I think :eyes:
> @zimny11 : maybe if there was an outline of the area in which player can move it?
Already done in the WIP post-jam version :grin:
> @ategon : Wanted to ask if youre fine if I put some gameplay of the game in an intermission video
Sure, with pleasure, do what you want! Thanks again for playing it, glad you liked :grin:
I don't know where to notify that to you guys, but are you aware that @Nestral is training on the jam version ([leaderboard here](https://loveteit.fr/lib/leaderboard.html?game=6)), and @Markais is ~~training~~ killing it on the post-jam one ([leaderboard here](https://loveteit.fr/lib/leaderboard.html?game=7))? :sweat_smile:
(the post-jam one is __definitely__ more balanced for scoring)
I wish I saw your problem earlier, but I see you found out about the magic "unpacked .exe" checkbox that prevent being flagged as a virus.
:sparkles: Good job making a working game in CTF2.5, quite an achievement considering... the state of this thing :sweat_smile:
To improve the graphics feeling, maybe you could embrace the pixel art style you have, and make each sprite 4x smaller but zoom on them x4? It will feel more polished. (in CTF it can be done by either having a smaller window simply zommed up.... or separating the hitbox active from a sprite active, always positionning the sprite atop the hitbox, and at the beginning of the scene set every sprite's scale to x4. It's more complicated that way, but the game will feel smoother)
I was talking about resolution mostly to point a way in which you can imho make the graphics feel more polished ^^ Otherwise, comments have said most of it :grin: Movements are a bit fiddly and you often get stuck, but the summoning mechanic is well thought (I especially liked the final pentacle where you have to use the power of each). The huuuuuuge level design would be fine with a "hack&slash" dynamic, but as yours is less intense and feels more like a puzzle (as you are vulnerable while summoning, you have to take a lot of care). After a while, I personally ended up ignoring everything, running straight to the next point, opening the path while dying, and coming back running after the respawn to reach the next zone. The tutorialisation is well made, it was nice having dialogs teach you what you just did :thumbsup:
Good game, well done! Cinematics are really impressive!
If you want to improve the platforming feeling look for : coyote time, edge jump deflection, jump input buffering, ledge grabbing, etc. It's all doable in GM and will make a world of difference.
If feel like you could keep adding onto this game, it's a solid base :thumbsup:
Nice compo entry!
I went all the way to get a warm mushroom stew in my bucket, but didn't what to do with it. Trying giving it to an old man, but I guess it wasn't to his taste. I was killed on the way to see if I can spill some on the altar, and didn't have the strength to redo it all ^^
I was in vocal with a friend, and I really didn't understand at first that all the noises were from the game. Kinda disturbing :joy: Love the handcrafted vibe of "I'll blow on my mic, roll my chair wheels, and open the window to record birds" :ok_hand: The 1-bit pixelart was nice and effective.
I guess the game would have been even nicer with a way to understand the summoning recipe, not only relying on randomly stumbling on ingredients (maybe have the wendigo push you in a specific area, or writing, ... ?)
Salut la Guilloteam!
Incredibly game as always. The feeling when you make a huge circle and every soul gather into that big boss demon, sooooooooooo good!!
Graphics are on point, fun is top-notch, and music is very :ok_hand:
Balancing is very nice too, at first I thought "hey, just wait for a longer trail and I can cheese that", but it turns out that you have to keep a balance between not too many weak one, and not too few demons in total. Death by being overwhelmed after greedly focusing on 1 single demon felt... rightfully punishing :joy:
Loved it, will replay more for sure! :fire:
Awesome game, had to read the warning about it begin not-a-rhythm-game and after that it went smoothly (but I still kept pushing arrow on the beat... I guess habits die hard :grin:)
Addictiveness is on-point :heart:
Extremely disappointed that there's nothing here :grin:
firefox_2024-04-21_01-02-39.png
Still surely the best game I've played this LD. Movement is awesome, pixelart is awesome, mood is perfect, difficulty is difficult.
6 out of 5 stars overall :kissing::ok_hand: With an ending, it would be 7/5.
Had one crash, but hopefully the fact that our current level is saved... saved the day =D
Very nice game, impressive compo (especially loved the music!)
Didn't try the speedrunning mode, but I really really understand how fun it should be to try and find efficient routes through those levels. I kinda already abused it in my scenario play, quickly alternating tunnels directions and making dangerous falls around spikes, thinking it was the strangely-hard designed path, only to find out later that I skipped half the map.
Very enjoyable, loved it!!
firefox_2024-04-15_14-49-33.png
I tried twice to summon the Lord of the Pit, even took a screenshot to come ask about it before reading your comment :sob: !
LudumDare55_2024-04-15_14-10-38.png
Anyway, impressive graphics for a compo, good use of the foreground shadow play! The runes made me a bit nostalgique of the Diablo II era =D
It was a bit tedious restarting from 0 after a mistake, and I kinda wish that there was a mechanic to quickly re-summon a previously obtained monster. I feel like there's not much missing and the recipe exploration mechanic could be fun and satisfying! Keep up the good work ✨
Nice compo entry :thumbsup:
I struggled a lot to understand what I should do, but managed to get to the end anyway =D (though I didn't went trough the windy tunnel... I think I skipped a step?)
redprince.png
I think the game could be enhanced with a non-minimalist 3D universe, and designing some kind of linearity in the clue progression. (having all corridors open from the start is a bit frustrating)
The candle burning down was a very nice diegetic way of implementing a timer, well thought!
Feels like a Spelunky :ok_hand:
Gameplay diversity among summons was pretty nice. I like the megaman-shooting bird =D
The level is huge, impressive work (although the side-by-side-rooms layering feels a bit too apparent)
I think that with a more defined incentive the game would be even better (maybe when you enter a level, pick an goal between "finish before X minutes", "earch X money" or "gather X souls"?)
Overall : nice compo game, well done for a first one! Keep up the good work!
Humor: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 6.0 ✖
I can't find the 6 pieces, the base32s doesn't seem to lead anywhere aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
(note: 1223 is a prime number too, I got confused :sweat_smile:)
Very nice puzzle game, I'll come back later to see if I can find something! I really loved the retro aesthetic!
I thought I was clever swimming up and falling along the whole level to speedrun.... well, time to restart everything :joy:
Loved the music change when entering different zones, and the pixelart is nice!
The pink levels are haaaaaaaaaard (but gotta love challenging games!) Maybe the spikes hitbox could do with a liiiittle bit of tolerance?
firefox_2025-04-07_21-47-06.png
@JavaSaurus Thanks for playing and the nice feedback! I'm a bit worried not to see your name in the online leaderboard, did it bug? 😟
@JavaSaurus I'm relieved, thanks a huge lot for taking the time to give it another go! :relieved:
About the seeded random, I choose not to for replayability's sake. But I always balance the randomness **a lot** by using bags, scaling on skill, and such... So that in the short term luck matters, but in the long term it doesn't! =)
@Sevadusk the fixed version is only about a true weirdness where a fish would block himself, standing angrily at the bottom... I don't wanna "fix" the balancing of the fish spawning, it seems against the rules. If I messed that up, too bad, I'll do better in post-jam :sweat:
(If you're wondering tho, it lacks intuitivity but the fish always spawn a bit to your right, hence he's truely only dangerous when you're playing on the left because you ovbiously corner yourself...)

Nice compo game!
The UI animation were nice, I only wished for a bit of QoL like for dice dropped onto a plot to snap into their respective slot, or the ability to drop-swap dices.
With the only addition of teaching the players which combinations work, which don't, and especially why, it could be perfect. (A recipe book or I-don't-know-what) The satisfaction of seeing points accumulate is already very strong =)
Nice compo game!
I like the colorful sprites, and the music change upon picking up the toy was nice. I love that the monsters then vanish, implying that the toy have some kind of magical soothing power =D
Double bucket helmet is nice, OSHA approve :thumbsup:
Nice little game. With more content, like a store for upgrades, and some progression, you could get a nice basis of a clicker game!
I went to lv20, before kicking in an autoclicker to push the game to its limits. Lv100+ with insta-mining was fun :joy:
Yaaay!

I loved that you can go up and fly right into space :joy:
Very nice compo game, the movement mechanic is original and it felt great to play. Maybe the economic aspect could be balanced a bit, I felt that I had too much money too fast, and it made the game pretty easy. Enjoyed it anyway =)
Nice keyart too
Overall, well done!
I clipped out of bound while dig-jumping upward downstairs... but it was so, soooooo beautiful, I'm not mad anymore for my progress loss :sparkles: :heart_eyes: :sparkles:

Apart from that, the progression was nice and the feeling of digging was very enjoyable. I'm a bit sad that there's no ending after falling into the final hollow layer... but I love the (way too much) time I spent playing. Well done :clap:
Gotta love the "camera panning into the character's butt" start :joy:
Very nice, especially for a first jam! I really had chills in my spine during the first jump, and some of the text lines too. Loved it!
Can't wait for your next 20 jam projects :champagne_glass:
Nice compo game, well done!
The music was nice, the pixelart too, and I had fun playing :grin: I went up to 245 before dying :thumbsup:
Maybe add some feedbacks everywhere : difference in the ground texture to see when moving, animation when hurt, when taking the ladder, when getting shroomed, when zombies attacks, etc... and it'll be a very nice litte game! :clap:
I was confused when the character said something about buttons?? :joy:

I did it! =D
Congrats on the first compo game, I dig the "dev art" :grin: Maybe try BFXR-like tools for some easy sounds fx, to juice up the gameplay (bigger fireballs too... they're never too big!)
It seems like you health don't reset when the game does, so on you 2nd+ try you'll get oneshot. Took me 3 death to figure this, F5 to restart the whole game, and then Satan got his chad 6-pack kicked hard!
Nice game, good idea =D A little bit hard to understand the map tiles, but that was fun to play! The water hitbox is a bit generous though ^^'
Awesome game as always =D Couldn't get past the level where all box explodent though... but I had fun trying again and again anyway!
Very nice game, I didn't plan on getting hooked to it and spend 40min playing. Too bad it was a bit easy, I didn't died once, and that there is no real ending. It make the wholle thing feel a bit rushed. And, the last boss design was... mmh... a bit disappointing =)
Hey, nice game here =D Need a bit of time to get used to the controls, but enjoyed it. Made 568200 before hitting a speed-up bloc that made me lost in a few seconds ^^
Nice game =D Don't you hate when you survive 30 bullets and die to a broken toe against a table? Went to 21154 on my last try, took me a little bit to get used to S not bringing you back down but instead changing your weapon =)
Wow, damn near perfect realisation here! I did 4800 on my first try, and I'm now too exhausted to try again... That was pretty challenging, loved every moment of it!
Very nice game, addicting as hell =) Beautiful graphics, as always. Thanksfully the wave 33 never loaded and left me waiting, I would probably have otherwise spent much more time doing... well... nothing x)
It's cool to see non-game entries, the creative spin is appreciated! Good radio choice, and the outrun aesthetic is nice :thumbsup:

Super nice! Loved the puzzles, the visuals, and the signal reflection mechanic is pleasantly working very well!
Challenging as should be, not too easy not too hard, good balance :thumbsup:
firefox_2026-04-24_22-06-46.png
I had a blast! The gameplay is obviously simple, but you really nailed the "just one more game!" feeling, very addicting! The difficulty ramping up is nicely balanced, felt great. My only complain is that the double jump is a bit unreliable, tho maybe it's my keyboard I don't know :sweat_smile:

Awesome entry! My first game was super bad, but then it clicked and I had fun replaying it for several tries! Makes me feel stupid, but in a good way :joy: I like that the random element is dealt to you and you choose how you handle it, it feels great to overcome a seemingly-bad rng :sparkles:

Had a hard time understanding every room's role and usefulness, it took me 3 tries but I did it! Nice game, well done :grin:
Awesome graphisms! Loved the backing beeping sound, felt like a forklift truck :joy:
I have to admit driving so badly that I almost caused more accidents than I helped to resolve... I'm relieved there's no pedestrians in those streets.

Cute game, well done! Loved the graphics, the victory screen deserves to be a downloadable wallpaper :grin:

Congrats to the worker bees! Loved the graphics, the choose-your-path moveset (I obviously couldn't resist doing the signals on beat), and, most importantly, the bumblebutt dance move!
I got lost and ran in circles more time than I'd like to admit, but it was a lot of fun 🐝✨
