Small Note:
There have been reports that the on the games produced the icon doesn't show up giving them a sketchy look. I trust you all games produced by me are not a virus they're just small games I made and besides I don't even have enough skill to make a virus or anything like that. So don't worry if it doesn't show up and have fun!

Oh, I get trolled :/

thegreentofuauthor14 Aug 2018, 14:23

@skyrex did you manage to complete the game? Or have you experienced a glitch or bug? If you've completed the game theres more to the story than it seems but if it's a bug or glitch then please report it and I'll try to fix it

Great mechanic idea, killing yourself and using your corpses as leverage is something I have never seen before. Liked the music and the graphics, just think the hitboxes could use some work. Nice submission though! I enjoyed it.

Cool game bruh music does work well too.
And I agree with chagai, good mechanics!

@haveaniceday Yeah I did spend a long time trying to fix them but couldn't find a perfect result so unfortunately thats as good as they'll get until my skills get better

I made it to level 3! I had to quit, however, as the game just became too tedious and repetitive. The second level is a prime example of this, in my opinion. The level could've been shorter, long enough to introduce the concept, but not too long as to bore the player. The music was good, I just wish it was longer and the loop was less obvious. Also, to remove the virus message, you can compress all of the game files into a .zip. Great jam entry :)

The plot was surprising and fun. It looks cute but it was hard story! Nice work

@adonisdevs yeah I had to design the levels and got bored of them I'm just not very creative when it comes to level design so next time I'm gonna try harder to make them more exciting! Also the music is about 7 seconds on a loop we did complain to the person who made it to make it longer and change it a bit but it never got fixed

:D Such a dark twist, I didn't expected. The game could have used a faster pace, because first levels features a lot of repetition (by the games nature). Also sounds used in the music reminds me of cave story any correlation? Did you used Pixel's DAW.

Bitdefender sees it as a virus and uninstalls... Can't play :/

thegreentofuauthor24 Aug 2018, 07:36

@lilkrit sorry to hear that we have had reports of similar things happening to other people unfortunatey we can't find a way to fix it

I really liked the premise and the game has a lot of potential but the janky collisions became very frustrating, mostly because it took so long to implement the solution that you know you need to do. If you could work on speeding that up or varying the puzzles a bit more it would be really cool! I would love to see more if you are planning to work on it further!

If you have some time I would really apprieciate any feedback/thoughts on my game, Gut Reaction!

Technical comment: the initial window was too wide for my screen size (1920x1018). If you really want to started windowed pick something that's sure to work, i.e. 1024x768 or 800x600. Luckily full-screen fixed it for me.

I liked the start of the game, it was funny! The platformer element was very interesting however it wasn't that well implemented, so I often got stuck while platforming. The puzzles started out straightforward but got me curious enough to continue playing. However, at level 3 (the one with the big button on the ceiling) I stopped because the getting stuck constantly irritated me a bit too much. However all in all I liked the simple audio and visual style and I think you made a nice game!
