Game Description ---------------------- Screen Escape is a puzzle / platformer game where you have to help a character that suddenly get kicked out of his video game. To go back to his home, he have to repair corrupted software of the computer owner and resolve challenging puzzles.
I got stuck/frustrated on the puzzle with two boxes and a button too high. Not sure if I was doing it wrong or the physics/controls were too tricky to allow me to progress.
I liked the graphics. A callback to old platformers. Also, the storyline has good promise.
interesting idea. The cubes were really hard to push up the slopes and stack on top of one anther. I was able to get cubes stacked using the slope, but it took a long time.
I love the concept and some of the puzzles were inventive. Sadly, the movement felt awkward, especially since I was expected to use the physics behavior to solve rooms. Movement mechanics in platforming games takes a lot of work to get right, which is made even worse when playing it on a keyboard. Can't hold that against you too much given that this is for a jam, but something to look into if you develop further.
I also got stuck/frustrated on the first Icefox level. After some time i had no problems to stack 2 boxes. But it was impossible for me to get the box and myself to the next slope at the same time. Now some good words :D The game has a nice story and the physic puzzle games are a nice idea.
Liked the game a lot. I gao stuck on the level with two boxes and two slopes: I managed to push both boxes up the slope, but they stayed up there and I couldn't go after them. Possibility of a situation like this requires a restart option. Screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/e5c1yf7qs8g3a7y/blessdlan.png?dl=0
Clever, but the physics are too fidgety for me to make any real progress. I quit at the part where you have to get a Companion Cube to slide up a slope too high for you to walk.
very nice concept for the theme! this is one of those games you could make a full thing of! :D congratulations on the idea, very funny and entertaining
@Team Flashlight There is no specific library required, I tested it on win8, but not 8.1, but it shouldn't cause any problem. Perhaps an incompatibility with hardware. Does the .log file in the game folder say anything?
Thanks for playing it everyone! We ran out of time to properly test it out, hence the physics / movement bugs and the high challenge of some levels. Sorry about that.
Anyway, I added a webgl version so non windows user could try it out. It's the same version than the windows version minor some trivial modification so you could use this version to rate the game.
The second screen seems too hard to complete since I've tried many times and didn't even understand what to do. In any case, the concept is good, the idea is interesting, and I like the snowman at the desktop wallpaper :)
cool idea--i also got stuck in the room with 2 heart cubes. i think you're supposed to push one up high and get it stacked, but the movement is too rough to actually pull it off. pretty fun entry though!
