Wow! The idea is really cool, the ambiance is nice, the animation of the posthuman cap was neat *uwu* I replayed it thrice just because I had fun. I love the fact that we could spam the letters :P I would LOVE to see it polish, with damage feedbacks, screen following when we go up, a victory screen, etc... Gg guys!
We had a similar idea we didn't do in the end, so I'm glad someone did it!! :D The stamping and posting categories are really coherent to the universe! Even tho the graphism are a little less coherent, but you had three days to make it happen by yourself, so big gj! It's pretty fun having to stamp but you can't clearly see them on the packages which makes this game less accessible to color blind people :/
@wolfier We're sorry you felt lost in you game experience... >_< About the impact, it does have one to a certain extend, depending on the characters. But thank you for your comment, we sure would like to add more feedback of your choice on the characters' thoughts! And you're right about reading everybody's thougths but not being able to send them letters, it can be frustating or overwhelming, we're working on that too!
@osullivp @junecc @meta-link @gmstochetto @i-iv-v-i @alpalcalad @larsievl Thank you for your comments!! You're all really kind, it's heartwarming ๐
@protowlf Haha, nice, we're currently trying to make it even more intriguing but we'll update these features after the ratings ;-) As for the impact, there is one, but it is very light for now. We have planned on adding more event corresponding to what you've sent them and thus create full narrative arcs, also edit the text of the events depending on how you made them feel with your letters. Thanks for playing ~
@shiiro-10psi Thanks for the feedback. In fact we didn't have enough time to implement as much feedback on your choices as we wanted ๐ฃ, but it does already have an impact! We're working on it thoough, to released a full version of the game ๐
@bqq Oh my goddess!!! Thank you for your comment and feedback ๐๐ Haha, yes about the main character we think it would be ideal to eventually add a intro cinematic where we picture the letter as a entity waking up every autumn to help the Heaventree people with their struggles ๐ฎ๐ช
Having the characters interacting is really something we want to implement!! Although we wrote some meeting events we sadly didn't have time to implement them in the game yet, but in future updates we hope to make it happen ๐๐
I wasn't sure that it would be consistent to write the letters with the combining system, thus I'm glad you liked the feature ~
@littleblackdog Thanks for the feedback, we just noticed that too... ๐ฃ It will soon be fixed ~
@amarokczukay Awww, thank you a lot for your comment, it's really heartwarming ๐โค๏ธโ๐ฅ We're working on a final version we would like to release at the end of the jam ๐
@axelle-desquilbet Oh yes, implementing voice acting is one of our wildest dreams ๐ช
@swen Hello, what do you mean by 'lag'? Could you develop, please? (if you remember the issue you noticed) ๐ฅ
@natirlich Thanks you for your detailed comment, I loved reading it!!! ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ @adele-illustration Haha, yes, exactly ๐ True, we did have some fun... and lack of sleep!! Typical jam move, too ๐ฅ I hope you both enjoyed your time playing the game ๐
@swen Oh, okay! I think one of our team member sees what you're referring to! Thanks for the feedback ๐
Hello bqq, I'm the partner!! ๐ We had such a great time playing your game!!! We were on it for the 16minutes 33sec we played ๐ It gave me a bit of Undertale vibes, with the 8bit ost and the Mettaton-like time entity T.Y.L.E.R I just loved their personality, I also liked the mechanic of losing a power to increase difficulty very interesting, gj ๐๐ฎ The 3D is neat, the top down view is really a great choice, and the lights effects are just ๐ช๐ช๐ช
Wow! The writing quality and quantity is amazing, gg for that!!! I really got into the story. The concept of having to manage resources in order to go on an adventure and discover a beautiful story is pretty smart! I would have liked either a save system, (outside of a jam scope:) maybe such as when the player has tried that option in a past run already they know what it does ?
Thank you for this (unfinished (for now)) adventure! ๐
I JUST LOVED THIS GAME!!!! You already have pretty useful feedbacks, so I'm just gonna congratulate to the two of you for this pretty polished game, you've found yourself a new follower!
((And if you do enjoy ~~reading a lot~~ narrative fictions please come check our game. It would be my pleasure to return the favor of a good discovery.))
I found my Orpheus! โI liked playing Eurydice. I loved the "aouch" SFX. Spammed it.
Thanks to the traders, it wasn't too repetitive and the โfailsโ weren't too punishing. I'd even just look for white ghosts nearby and get slingshoted. The two-stage runs are really interesting, with the โlife barโ being the ghosts, very meta, very smart. Thanks for making sure that the white ghosts come out first when you get hit, and so on in ascending order of rank.
@caeonosphere Omg we're so proud you felt that! ๐คฉ We were precisely trying to achieve this "depths by scrolling" effect!! Thank you for you comment ๐
Thank you very much, @jack-turpitt , for this exhaustive feedback. I's really helpful as it underlines precise features of what made it worked. You rule ๐ (I went I played your game, btw ๐ซก)
Hey, @foxecho! Thanks for your feedback ๐ Good point, we'll put a sentence about changing fonts option at the beginning of the scroll, thanks for telling us!! By the way, we're sincerely interested: what ambiguity around the identity of โIโ are you talking about? ๐๐
@fredrik-andersson how nice it is that you noticed this subtlety, it means it's working. Thanks! ๐๐ช
@balimaarthebassfish 'solid game'... ๐ณ๐๐
@xwilq HEHE, THANK YOU!! @fae-pdf is our sworn ink goblin, that's thanks to her! She made an inventory, knowledge tracking, and the exiting-the-labyrinth-chase-against-the-beast ๐คฉ Your comment is particularly touching since you know how ink works ~
@providence Thank you for this comment, it's one of the challenges of choice games. ๐ if you remember them, you can tell us when you felt this way!!
@coffie The chef is honored, they've been cooking for our studio games since the beginning!! ๐ Their Instagram profile is โจ @ alyd.asmar_art โจ, if you're still hungry ๐
As for our talented music cooker, she can be found on bandcamp : https://nuelijarma.bandcamp.com/
@floppynub Woah. Your comment is really heartwarming (it's been screened and put on our discord server). Thank you very much. ๐ฅนโจ
@providence Yes, thank you!
So, in fact the first "left, right, ahead" choices have no minigame to them, this passage is supposed to make you feel getting deeper and deeper into the tunnels. Which made me think that since these choices have no impact at all, I should just put a {write_on} there instead. Or in the future something like "follow the voice"/"leave these tunnels". Thus, thank you.
But then, in the actual "Left, Right, Ahead" minigame, you have in fact exactly these descriptions. About them, I understand that if you just want to get it done, you don't spend that much time inside the echoing dead end, and you don't get the clues supposed to help you to exit the maze without getting caught by the beast. I guess then that the choices for which path you take feels arbitrary and the descriptions abstruse/useless.
What I would really like to know, is that if the players who spent time reading the echoing dead end descriptions, could decide which path to take and exited the maze more easily.
We also put a Mariana trench reference in our game, lol (literaly a Mariana's trench coat easter egg). Love the wiggling hair on our character's chibi. Well written. Interesting approach of the theme, enhanced by excessive use of 'deep' and 'depths' words xD (we did it too). Very fun. Wonderfull art and music. Thank you for not colliding Nita with the office furnitures. Good Job!
What a great idea. Thank you for being honest about what the I.A. did and what you did yourself.
I had fun. I liked the mood and that we could have different playable characters, and collect gems during the game. but I got stuck at floor 4, and the game kept taking me there from the menu, so I had no gems to help me beat the stage. :((
noooo why, thumbnail and description were soo catchy xD
I like the 3d models and the game colors!
The game is as hard as it is aesthetics!! ๐ (spoiler: it is a sight for sore eyes) ๐
I think I would looove playing this game. But light.exe is downloaded as "Unconfirmed 224463.crdownload" can't open, I think my computer blocks the downld even tho I turned off my firewall I'm so very sad.
I DID it!! Gg for this game you made all alone. The starting animation is very much needed bc it makes it all clear and is very cute, too.. (reminded me of these mario party minigames when you "jump in" in flies from 3 quarter view to top view). A simple, effective game.
