Strong vibes of "Thomas was alone". Nice puzzle-game, loved the sound effects ; I can't get enough of the *boing* sound 😁

@luc-creationallabs A (or Q if you're an azerty fellow) and D are for moving your character. But the beats should be hit with your keyboard arrows 😉
@vaanrile Thanks for the kind words. And glad to hear some people are actually seeing the bottom !
I'll make sure to try your Abyss Waker later in the day. 😉
The wasps were especially painful ! Nice credits though ;)
Nice sea urchins 😄
A bit repetitive, and it's soooooo long to going up with full pockets ; I would have like another upgrade in the shop to be able to carry more ! The oxygen bar should also replenish immediately at the surface imo.
Pfiou, just got back with 5% oxygen and 5% at my second try, nice balancing ! Enjoyed the soundtrack, it was matching very well.
Vicious eels are vicious.🐟
Best game I've played so far from this Ludum edition. The music and the esthetics were great. And the highlighted words were a really nice touch.
A few questions / remarks though : - to get the cat picture below the village, you have to jump on a little platform : I tried with every layer but went through with each one ; not sure if a collision bug or I'm just missing something ? - when meeting the girl at the exit of the village, she says she's got something for us, but...nothing happens ? - I got stuck in a loop of death near the beginning of the game (the same @erilhir described sooner) : when you're at the highest level of anxiety, you can't get back fast to a lower level of anxiety. And the flying ennemy keeps rushing at you. Maybe respawning at a medium level of anxiety (and not the one where you died) would solve this issue ? - The immediate death when changing layer and popping on an ennemy was really punishing. Maybe a few invulnerability frames when changing layer ? Or just preventing from switching layer if this leads to an immediate death ?
Really nice job 👍
Cannot play the game 'cause I'm on linux, but that looks great !
Really nice puzzle ! Loved, then hated, then loved again the inversion twist :) Nice chill music.
A few things that could improve the game IMO : - speed that dialog box please ! life is too short for this - make the cross appear with right click ; left click only for toggling the box (on mobile, maybe one tap for filling and holding for the cross ? or just keeping the current layout)
I would have loved to be able to save a position (when I know it's true and I did not do any guessing), and be able to restore it (when I made a guess, then realized it was not possible). I took screenshots instead, but it's more tedious.
Bravo !
Nice one ! Quite simple gameplay-wise, but I could not let it go before I got the best stamps ! The lunatic dog really got me laughing :D
I love rhythm games, but this did not click for me. We have to wait waaaaay too much time between each attack IMO. The button mashing doesn't work really well with the music beat. Having an azerty keyboard for sure did not help !
Really nice dubbing at the beginning, though !
