Well made! Very nice calming audio and lots of thought into the game - nice!
I love the visuals! There didn't seem to be a "loop" mechanic apart from the level itself, but good job!
Hahaha I love the sound effects you did with your voice! This game surprised me, I love the different mechanics each iteration of the character uses, and how they're used to explore the environment differently - lovely game.
Wow this is so well made for a game jam! I love the pieces of the level swapping out in the background and the character design, also the movement is great! My only wish would be if there was a small cooldown for attacking as I found spamming attack made me unstoppable haha. Great stuff!
Lovely art and music! The dialogue cuts out off the rest of the text sometimes so it's hard to read. Good job!
I love this! It's a great concept that I really think you could expand upon and make a bigger game out of. Add some cool music and sound effects for the spin (I suggest this https://youtu.be/cerkDJLuT_k just kidding) and it'll be even better. Got Zelda vibes from this - awesome job.
Good level generation! Although I would like an ending for the game but I guess that's against the point xD Music's cool and the idea's funny
@pietrek thank you so much! We are thinking about ways we could possibly improve and expand the idea... Really appreciate it! :D
@garfsnacks glad you liked it! We're also very happy with the audio haha - we have a walkthrough posted that you can use if you're stuck (I'm assuming it was my puzzle with the safe...) thanks
@linaiz thank you for playing! We're glad you liked it :)
@csomega not a bad time at all! I agree, we didn't have enough time to add it! Oh well, thanks for playing and glad you liked it! :)
@r3l0ad1 thank you! glad you liked it :D
This was actually so fun... holy crap! We also made a game with fishing/oxygen mechanics, so it's awesome to see different approaches - the movement was really nice and pretty unique!
The clouds were so cool! I think the player should have three lives though, I found it pretty difficult. The final boss was awesome and felt like a legit boss battle. This was really nice
This was a pretty fun game, although I didn't get past the bit where everything was unleashed haha, the voiceover was silly and really fun!
I was expecting a monster to come out since it was so atmospheric! I think the player's rigidbody physics was messing with me a bit, and it would have been nice to move faster, but overall pretty nice
Nice and short! Pretty fun, audio would take it to the next level :)
@runningopenloop thank you, fixed!
@infecsean Hey! Oops, the screenshots got unlinked somehow... :D thank you so much!
@majomirez thanks for playing! Yeah the WebGL version is acting up, but working on it!
@majomirez WebGL is fixed!
@silkworm-sweatshop duuuuude you're right, we should totally add a hitmarker or something to make it extra satisfying! Thanks for playing, and good job getting the trophy haha!
@volkolak Thank you! I think we managed to get the balance worked out ok - the trophy was $10k but we halved it last minute, good thing, otherwise it would have been a little boring! Glad you liked it :)
@hypersomnia appreciated! We spent most of our focus on the game loop first (then got excited about the shop) and the actual swimming level mostly came together in the last day. Not sure if I'd recommend that approach or not, but I agree and we're glad at how complete it feels as a loop
The vibes were immaculate - this was really cool, and super creepy! Impressive animation and visuals for 72 hours. Sometimes the monster would get stuck and I had to reset, and the generators could do with some more interaction beyond holding E, but this is crazy good for 72h
Nice looking game! Mixed vibes, but was pretty funny
Really fun! The movement was a little sluggish though - although that was the point, it felt somewhat slow. Had a good time!
This was super fun! Although needs some balancing, as I went over quota by >100k haha, but that was really fun!
This was really cute. Fun game!
Seems pretty cool! But nothing to do really
