About

In life you start with nothing. Sometimes you cannot progress in life without first learning how. Live this feeling through the mind of a monochromatic shape. Experience the harsh realities of life with nothing but polygonal platforming and goofy sound effects.

There are a few bugs we only discovered in the built release that we ran out of time to fix. Sorry about that.

Y'know I was all ready to hate this for both latching onto the goose zeitgeist and taking *quite a bit* of inspiration from Thomas was Alone. But then the sound effects happened. Absolutely creasing myself. I also found the platforming to be challenging but fair. The central message seems to be the opposite of Thomas was Alone: relying on oneself rather than your friends. And I always reckon if a videogame makes you think: you're doing something right. Good job y'all!

I really like how everything faded in slowly and the controls were generally good. The SFX were hilarious (spamming S especially). Unfortunately, I got really stuck on the wall jumping part though. I'd start sliding down the wall and was ultimately unable to get past.

It has potential, but I didn't like the controls and camera movement. I got stuck while jumping on the walls.
