Cool game, fun to play. Interesting mechanics. A bit hard to tell if you're gonna crash into an obstacle. p.s. Oh well, looks like i can't get over 30.
Well that was short. But it's a great atmospheric experience with nice graphics and sound. And i like it! And It also fits the theme perfectly which is great! But man, that ending soundtrack is the biggest reward you can wish for, it's so good! I just wish gameplay was a bit challenging. You can hold down left+space and you basically done.
Well it sure does convey a dungeon exploration feel! I lost my way after a few turns :D Anyways, great game! Had a lot of fun playing it.
The sound of this game is really impressive!
Solid game! Gets quite challenging after a while.
Nice music! Your art is also great. As for gameplay, you got some cool ideas here but attack delay makes everything really hard. if it's a game mechanics you might want to indicate it somehow with additional piece of animation or sfx.
Nice artwork! I Really love that shark sprite. They look so happy i felt guilty killing them.
Dude what's wrong with these turtles! They're so eager to get into my net i'm in the negative zone all the time :D It's a fun game and fits the theme! i like it. Though it needs some music to become perfect. All in all great entry.
Nice atmospheric experience! Loved it from start to finish. One thing though: sometimes webgl gets all stuttery and this enables you to clip through collision(and stuck there) Had to replay the game from the beginning(got stuck at the end of the second day, in the Thompson's furniture =D )

The way you make the world bend on itself is a brilliant idea. I really love bended space aesthetics, it makes this game special to me.
Music is nice, i like how you made portal sfx go in key with the soundtrack. As for gameplay, it feels like this game a bit too easy and there is not much you can do if you got bad RNG on the portal placement.
Good game, really fun to play.
Damn thats hard. But thats fine i like a good challenge. Love that nice clean art style. It's simple and it looks good and it works. Good job!
Solid game! Everything here is done very well. Cool idea with the weight pulling you down to your doom.👍
Really like the atmosphere. That intro art is nice! Melee is hard and make you chug that dragon blood all the time which is fun. But i'd like to have some other way to keep my heath up :D All in all, great job!
Some good hitboxes here it is actually enjoyable to dodge meteorites! Sound could be cool but you already made a lot for just 6 hours so it's ok. Nice game!
Great game, very fun to play! Love your dynamic music, it really adds to the feeling of scale. 5 stars in humor btw😏.
Pretty good game, nice soundtrack(dynamic music👍), the story is interesting, good job! There is a few confusing moments with the interactions. first one is when you've already spoken to Ash the "Press X to interact" sign stays enabled. The second one is lenses don't give feedback on what can or can't be interacted with. Oh and the last one, when you jump, camera goes too high and you can't really see where to land. Other than that, great entry!
Pretty fun game. Gets hard really fast tho.
Art aspect of the game is pretty good, especially love the music.
Got bonus points for playing this game while eating waffles:)
@willoxs Thank you. That's something i gotta learn how to do properly before the next Ludum Dare.
@demuss That's a good idea. I think it could be done in a form of being able to go backwards, removing the trail. Thanks!
@papaver
Thank you. Yes, levels are generated. There is also a difficulty increase between levels. It can be hard to notice though. After a few levels there's a chance to generate vertical target, after a few more - diagonal.
@nobongo Thank you. This is my first time designing and programming a game for a game jam, normally i'm just an art and music guy. This means a lot to me that I've managed to create something that people can find interesting.
What a nice game!
Love your piano music. Coupled with the art it creates a nice atmosphere, the mood is really there.
Gameplay is challenging without being frustrating. It's fun to play it to the end.
Btw, this particular level is super hard, took me around 20 or more tries. 2019-10-22_22-08-05-chrome.png
Nice little game, a bit too short, especially since it seem to end when you get new upgrade. Had fun with the glider tho!

Pretty fun and solid game! One thing that i would love to have is a bit more sharp display of a resurrection area(or have the bodies in circle light up or something ). I keep missing the bodies when i'm trying to resurrect multiple targets at once and most of the times it costed me a game.
Man that was beautiful, what a nice story!
Controls feel great, it was pretty easy to go around.
Got stuck here. Guess it's what ppl call a "corner case":smirk:

Now that's art! Thank you for this amazing entry.
Well, apart from red hit-box being a bit too big and some of the horizontal dash disarming not registering, its a perfect entry! Aesthetics executed perfectly in all things, from music to graphics and UI. Nice difficulty curve. It's great to have a nice challenging gameplay without being overly frustrating, perfect length of the game as well! Thank you for this game!
Packing enemies to pierce all of them at once is really satisfying! Great gameplay.
I really enjoy this type of games, imagination is the best type of graphic engine. It got me invested in the story really fast.
One thing i would really love is the option to disable auto-skipping. Some times it won't skip and it makes you press Enter key to skip manually, and after a while you get used pressing Enter. Some lines skip really fast tho, resulting in double skip when you press Enter and there is no way to go back and read what you've skipped.
There's also was a bunch of error messages in there, some are red "EOL while scanning string literal (

All in all - pretty nice game, good job!
It's a nice concept, and it's pretty fun to play. Few things kinda get in the way of fun tho. One of them is waiting for crystal to recharge, the other one is starting from scratch when you fall. Totally love the music, nice job there!
@rrawrr
Oh, i see. Well, sometimes it's hard to tell where the next piece of the "ladder" is, and it kinda makes you spam the crystal, rapidly depleting it's power.
As someone on the comments said, some kind of feedback on how good you're aiming would be great.
I'm yet to reach the top :D
Interesting concept. The graphics is nice but I've noticed that i have to keep my eyes on UI all the time this makes it hard to appreciate it fully. Sound design is great btw, i love that you have your sfx in tune with the music.
Great game, bit too hard to see things tho.
Also, fallen from the graveyard since there's nothing preventing you from doing that.

(Edited)This was a double-post, i don't know if it's possible to delete comments.
That was interesting. You know, at first i was kinda skeptical, and the drawing part felt a bit too long for my taste. but once you get to the shooter part it all comes into place. Seeing my doodles come to life is very interesting experience. Different speeds of the enemies does give different character to them too. The difficulty curve is a bit too shallow for me, i'd prefer to get into a hardcore action sooner(but that's just me) Overall good game, fun experience!
Cool graphics and sound design, thats fur sure. First I kinda failed to understand how stuff works. But even when i figured everything out it's still pretty hard game. it's also kinda hard to tell where exactly space trash and power pickups are located relative to your ship, which leads to some frustrating moments.
Beautiful work of art, well done!
Well, i suck at shooters and pretty good at rhythm games and even though i missed half of the targets i still had some fun with this game. Btw, i tried to shoot the hat off the cactus and sadly nothing happened, feels like a missed opportunity to me 😉 Overall nice entry!
Great relaxing experience, i had a lot of fun with it(until it crashed, but that's ok). Occasional really pixelated patterns is pretty hard to do, i don't know if frustration is a good thing for such a meditative game.
Well, i really like the aesthetic and the idea but the game is kinda hard for me, lol. Sound design is pretty nice too!
