Alright, the graphics were quite inconsistent, I didn't really felt use of theme here and the engine was somewhat terrible, but this game is so silly that I still like it, somehow. ^^"

Liked the concept here, but I think the graphics need to be a bit more consistent throughout. I loved the parts of it that were low-res mess (like the font), but they don't work alongside the sprite for the main character because it is more high-res.

I also think that the vertical movement mechanics and controls need some tightening up.

Sound was great IMO, and so was the humor! Good luck in the jam :)

I'm not sure if I liked or not the character talking to me, but the collisions didn't work on many places, and there was a run where I got stuck changing scenes after the cathedral...

Had some troubles on collision too, I tip so more persons can play you game as you made on unity, you could make a web version, so it's easy and will encourage more people to play.

@Hyoga-3D, thanks, if it is possible I will try and get a web version up tomorrow.

The art was shared between two of us, hence way it's a little inconsistent. None of us are really artists so we didn't really have an artistic direction. Thanks for the kind words otherwise! - Steven

I like the concept, and the theme was not really all that suitable, but still a great job!

Funny game! Ran into some bugs though, like not being able to build sometimes and the default resolution wouldn't show the full level.

I couldn't figure out what to do. I eventually got the player character to walk in from the left side of the screen, but after lots of running, jumping, and clicking on things, I couldn't figure out how to progress.

ReactorScram - the default res has an issue here but I think any widescreen res should work.

Quite a buggy game, I lost the character to a different screen at one point. Enjoyed the music and the humour. Was the theme link the world of the player and the world of the character?

I couldn't do anything, the resolution left the sides clipped. After the "someone stole my ham" dialogue I just ran back and forth clicking and nothing happened.

Ran into a few issues, but not a bad game at all. Good use of humor.

Link ham and cheese and that's it. I couldn't play it correctly, it went out of the screen on one side or the other and did not go to another screen. But I hope the quest for ham continues! Nice try.
