Definitely something I didn't know I wanted until I had it.
My only critique would be that the punch controls could be more satisfying. It might be as simple as changing which key punches.
But, even so, very fun, and handled the theme incredibly well.
Like @Sapazu, this game made me question if I should have bought the heaviest switches for my keyboard.
Really enjoyed it. I'll echo everyone else and say that more levels would be very welcome. It's such a solid game already, the only thing missing is more! Well done.
@kromeboy If there's a top score, I certainly haven't found it yet. So far, the highest documented we've seen is 5881, which is higher than I think either myself or @N8M8 have gotten.
@heyycap Looks like you'll just have to play it again, eh?
@piscythe Thank you! We're actually looking forward to working on it some more, even after the jam. (If you had told me on Friday that I'd say that, I wouldn't have believed it for a second.)
Hey @jupiter-hadley thanks for taking the time to play, and for bringing @Yngvarr here with all their kind words!
Nicely done! The sound really helped take the tone of the game to a new level.
The controls took some getting used to, but after the initial learning, were responsive and fit the game-feel really well.
That was pretty haunting. I'm definitely picking up the book next chance I get.
It's difficult to rate because as a "game" there's not much going on, but it was a hell of an interactive experience.
Well done!
Like @theArtifacts mentioned, an ability to drop letters would be nice, or to auto-fail the round if the combination of letters wasn't going to work.
Very fun game though. The controls took some getting used to, but once you do, they're really nice. It's a little bit of a rush drifting around a corner, or swinging the car around in reverse, and then flooring it.
Good-looking level too. The perspective, color palette, and general aesthetic works really well.
Really enjoyed this one. Those aha! moments were really satisfying. Combining it with platforming definitely fit the theme.
I did run into two bugs, one where I ran out of time at the last door, and the game just looped the "time up" sound and music. And on the next playthrough, the "reward" at the end didn't capture the text. (Sorry if that's vague, don't want to risk spoilers BECAUSE I was really tickled with that particular mechanic. Great idea!)
I'd post a picture of my little note sheet, but that's definitely full of spoilers.
Well done!
Looking forward to the full release that I really hope is coming for this. Would love a mini-golf course too.
Sure there's some clean-up that could be done, but the game is just so fun, I need more, asap.
Thanks for making it, obviously, I'm really excited I got to play it.
Wow. That was really satisfying. And I totally missed where you said spacebar to drop cargo. That would have made my playthroughs more... safe.
I could watch the crane extend and retract all day. (Just like, 60 seconds tonight though, honest)
Aesthetically pleasing, controlled very well, and the music was on-point.
But most of all, it was fun.
Thanks, guys!
