Tried the webgl port. The puzzles look interesting, but it was quite buggy. I could drop thing (like the keys) on the other side of the locked door and had a hard time getting it back. Also threw my box somewhere inside the walls and then i couldn't climb up anymore. :(
Liked the oblique twist on the theme, and that you had to be pretty good at lying. Ha ha. Good sound fx, but the typewrite was LOUD. Unfortunately, I didnt get away with it. :(
It looks like a good concept. but way too hard for me even on easy mode. I think maybe my computer was too slow, so the barrels didn't bounce very high at all. The sounds of the barrel hitting the rock were nice and the splashes too.
aargh. 404 page, but the screenshots look really cool. Please update the link
Interesting concept. Felt a bit like simcity in a tooth. Good effects such as when brushing etc.
the graphics are great. I had a hard time maneuvering the drill though. Rotation was really tough and slow. Did not expect a whale
Loved that it was easy for me to play. I dont like games with high difficulty. Lovely sounds and movement. First time hearing about Stencyl.
Really cool and simple visuals, clean cut. Liked the music choice too. The color changes were appreciated.
Nice use of the theme with the graph. The music was funky as well.
With one hand on the mouse, and the other on the keyboard, the choice of P & Q letters is very weird. Too difficult to have two fingers on the keys. perhaps, Q and E might have made more sense. Got to 510 score. Thanks for making the game.
Interview in the mind? sign me up. But Not really sure what to do with the monster, clicked until i (or it, im not sure) had no health left but couldn't do anything after that.
The hand drawn graphics were a nice touch, and the background music is kinda appropriate. I wish there was a better indication of where the interaction points are, as basically I had to do arrow-space on every movement and go thru everything from one end to the other and back again. I liked that the whole thing is javascript.
At least there is a WebGL "game" where you can push vegetables and rocks around. :) Hope to see you update it into something more tangible,
Took a while to get used to the mechanics, but it was fun after getting the hang of it. Kept forgetting where I was though and ended up back at the first room - ha ha.
Very nice voice over and the fileters? effects? on the other characters was good too. would wish for a longer story, but hey, its a weekend right? Thanks for the entertainment.
Amazing that you did this with an engine you hadn't heard of. Liked the turn by turn game mechanic, I kept just the mage and blasted thru every enemy.
Addictive game, finally rescued the child! Very slow at the beginning though.
Where is the game? Do you have an incomplete version anywhere?
Good and enjoyable game. Agree with other commenters that the objects are not differentiated, and the dark-on-dark background is difficult to see. also, for those of us with small screens, this is hard to play due to needing large vertical resolution. I only have a 1366x768 screen.
That was fun. shooting things into the ear, and the oh so satifying "oh yeah"
Nice game with a moody feel. THANKS so much for making an easy mode where i could skip levels, after trying them. I appreciate that so much. Likes that as the game progresses, you are introduced to more stuff.
Enjoyed this clicker game. The creatures don't fight though. Got me some retro vibes and 8 bit music.
Nice fun game (for a unix nerd). For others, it might be too geeky... Loved the puzzles and the pseudo terminal you have implemented. PS: the 3D at the start eats up too much resources
Your own voice for the music? Creepy but fits the mood. I'm not sure where the dialog is. Perhaps i didn't go deep enough. Found the spikes super annoying and unable to avoid.
Spent too much time on this game, figuring out the possibilities. Sometimes the arrow and tick does not appear.
Not sure what to do. The graphics and audio were nice.
Seemed the world wasnt deep, but once you get deeper, liked the way you implemented infinite depths. Music was good, and the game is fast paced, fast to die, as you need a ton of gold
Unfortunately I couldn't play the game as it was too big to fit my screen (1366x768). Gave me Dilbert vibes, hence I wanted to play it. Does the game scale to the screen size on the Windows version. If so, I mage give it another try.
Was a bit too difficult for me. Where's the easy mode? Couldn't even get past the cat. Now I know why i dont play platformers. Muhahahaha. The mood of the game was really good, with the glitches, eerie music and sounds. Creepy... Cant believe you did that during one weekend.
It has nice graphics and decent sound. The gameplay was reasonably simple, though I still thik it could be simpler for people like me who dont like platformers (an easy mode would be appreciated). Overall, I think this is a great game for a weekend job.
so I am that little cloud with a gun? ok, lets shoot em up. 0.5 mins later - oh no i died. The corridoors are quite narrow and the bullets change direction halfway which ain't so cool.
This is a very impressive game, and done in godot no less. i'm just starting to do my 2nd game in godot, so hope to be able to get to this level sooner than later. Did not like the grinding needed at the start. It might be too long to play for a jam game. Thanks
The concept was good, and i think you handled the rope mechanics pretty well. First level was way too hard. The springiness of the rope was very hard to master. Also, the limited view of the game map hinders any logical movement. game was too big for my small laptop screen (1366x768)
A really fun game. Reaction time was very fast though. especially after the "Books cant die" statement. Died there many times. ha ha. Had a lot of laughs.
What? I died in the trash bin so early on. What am i doing wrong? Graphics was cute, and guy animation was funny (and blocky)
I'm guessing this is made in unity? I couldn't really tell from the git files. Oh the first part was the tutorial? I didnt know that. Felt like someone constantly interrupting you. As for the game itself, it was good fun. Some comments I have - why the water doesn't rush into the right side? The temp keeps going up even if i don't drill anything. There might be a bug, clicking in some cases doesnt drill/move. just gets stuck in the rock.
The game felt good, though it had some weird controls, and too many of them. Mood was great. I don't usually play platformers, due to them being difficult for me (no dexterity) and this was no exception. But it looks like it would have been fun.
Hi there, you didnt state what kind of platform this runs on? I suppose it is windows, but its not clear anywhere.
I guess the game is incomplete. Only 2 blocks for me to kill ?
This is deeply punny. Didn't get the Madonna reference though.
@panacea. Thanks, I knew i was missing something :)
I got to ground level 132. Sound was nice, the "froggie" sounds didn't seem to any reason for sounding. Some of the eyes actually stopped and had a staring contest with each other.
Wow a difficult game for the jam. I had a hard time and gave up half way. Cheat mode please?
@abigailcorfman Thanks for the hints. They helped a lot. But now, after going down th eweb and climbing, i went into the main menu/options, and then i couldn't resume the game. Load shows all unsaved games, so i could not resume.
Oh oh, the surprise at the end. Good gameplay and loved the gfx, especially the 3D on 2D asthetic.
Finally a platformer I thought I could beat, no enemies hurrah. That was short lived when the grim reaper sent me down again :( Nice music and animation. Loved the skipping animation
Thanks for all the comments. Did not expect to get so many so fast. I uploaded a bit early just to make sure i dont get stuck with upload problems. I have uploaded a slightly longer game now
@britt-henderson Thanks for your feedback. Those were all things I wanted to do, but ran out of time. We had already designed the key assets and the flower was supposed to be interactable, but alas, not enough time.
Thanks @Kszaku @DevParty @Guardaro @Simul @dk5000p for the feedback and suggestions. 1) My second game with Godot and I was a bit more ambitious. However my knowledge of the engine really let me down. I had to google a lot of things and mish-mash stuff together to work 2) The debugging was a nightmare. Not knowing why things weren't working was bad, plus I had weird glitches that I couldn't explain. 3) Sound as a game mechanic was suggested by my designer, The fallback was to show a correct/incorrect equation, which would have been a bit more lame 4) Game is super short due to all the debugging headaches, Originally intended for 5 levels, with keys to unlock the gate and flowers to collect for grandma.
@cheesypencil yep. Wolfram for the win!, we definitely had fun and sleepless nights making it @tetrapteryx Yeah, I will probably update this to include more stuff, suggestions from fellow LDers and my own wishlist
@andrewkennedy Oh, I'm not sure what happened there. Its supposed to slow down when you get near a gate and then play the sound. I find the sound in the Web version to be a bit choppy. The exe works better.
Thanks @hcs-hades @thegamer1123211 for the supportive comments
@jonathan-turner Yes, it needs more obstacles and a puzzle mechanic. Didnt have time to do it due to debugging the game. Maybe later
@pat-cleaver Good idea, i need more gates and in different positions too
@eryn Sorry, ran out of time, so have to make do with 4 levels for now. I plan on adding more levels and mechanics
@boxedmeatrevolution Thanks, I had fun making the game and the sfx
@samazki You go deeper and deeper into the forest? Was all i could think of (that i could possible make in a weekend) that wasn't a driller or a diver.
@damagefilter Thanks for the ideas, yes, there are a lot of ways to take this forward, and i do plan on completing this game a bit more (maybe 15 levels or so)
Thanks @justcamh I had a blast watching you live, and the feedback was useful as I did not do any user testing beforehand (oops). Send my regards to your brother too.
@tanner-shelton @link270 @1minatur Thanks for playing. Watching 3 persons play the game at the same time was a new experience. Each Screen was a bit small though, considering i'm watching on a 1366x768 screen anyway. I do plan on taking the game further, after the jam.
@dmitry-mozgin @zoarfy As it was my first non-tutorial game i made in Godot, I made a lot of mistakes and the bugs took up a lot of time to debug Am refactoring the code so it works better and then will releae a V2.0 with the fixes and enhancements. Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks @gustavo-christino for playing and giving such extensive feedback. I will take this into account in this game and in future games
Thanks @jonrei, I had fun making the sfx
@gamebuilder @omiya-games Thanks for giving the game a go. I do admit I spent way too much time on debugging issues with the game-engine and a bit less though on the game level designs. The triviality and length is due to the short time left and just getting a playable and reasonably non-buggy version out before the time limit.

230m only, was a difficult game. Thanks for making it
