I thought the theme of "start with nothing" described most games already, so I decided to take the theme very literally (as in you don't even have a character to start with).
Was shooting for compo, but ended up taking it easy on Sunday. Everything was jammed by me in Unity. Original plan was to dev in LOVE2D but Unity's joint system makes certain things so easy. Hope you enjoy! :smiley_cat:
AHHHHHH I think this is one of my favorite LDJAMS so far :D :D :D I made so many somethings!!! I still haven't gotten through something, but I played for like 20 mins straight and I'm determined to make it someday. I love the tone too, and the text, and what sound is there is satisfying. Thank you for making this cute game!
This was really, really neat. I love the visual style and the cute comments. Perfect fit for the theme. I couldn't figure out what could cross the bridge at first - tried about eight shapes of various sizes and outlines. Finally got a shape that worked, but then I got slapped a lot. Finished with my good shape after several tries on the final puzzle - barely made it over the edge before the red caught up with me. I enjoyed the ending. So much great writing in addition to the coding and design. Really cool.
@dob Really appreciate the feedback! The way you solved the challenges through trial and error was exactly the experience I hoped to deliver, so I'm very pleased that you had that and then ultimately triumphed in the end.
@of711 Thanks for playing, and I'm sure you'll get it. Just don't spill the T!
Woah, what a game! I'm in love with this highly existential ending. Nice move, hehe. Wish it was longer, I would be happy to try an extended version of the game. Also, ability of creating your own character is 10/10. My cat turned upside down and couldn't roll (it started to move extremely slowly and absolutely stuck), so I had to change its shape to chewed bubble gum, lol.
Really fun game. Really nice humor everywhere, a bit passive-aggressive but I loved ir. Spent too much time on it, I guess it means it's addictive :smile: Good work ! :thumbsup:
This game is incredible. One of the best I've played. A couple times I actually laughed out loud. I had a really great time playing it and will definitely be coming back to play more. Amazing job!
The mood and writing in this game has absolutely been my favorite, gives me a Thomas Was Alone vibe. I'd love to see what you could do with a post jam version.
@mikeality This was one of the first shapes I drew as well. I too, could not get through something with it. Guess it'll be a lonely night of nothing...
ha very funny, clever game. great writing, and progression of challenge really kept me playing and trying new ideas. my only wish was that the refresh time was quicker after dying. But very fun game, congrats!
@julianbeutel I agree - I wanted the player to have to go through some of the AI's condescending dialogue, but I definitely should've included a skip option if they had already seen it once. Thanks so much for playing and leaving feedback!
@peachtreeoath Thanks for playing! I've found success with more circular shapes that are large enough to overcome the first challenge but small enough to sneak through the second challenge. :slight_smile:
I really liked this concept, the idea of creating a character that can overcome all the puzzles is quite the challenge, and the AI makes the whole thing really original. Great work!

@vaibho Your comment is something as well. Thanks for playing!
@kamuniaft Getting past that part can be tricky. Thanks for checking it out!

@sabeurre Definitely agree with the passive aggressiveness. I was cursing at the AI while testing haha. Thanks for playing!
@creativ4eg I really appreciate you stopping by to play and comment!
@christopher-wong I really wish I could've made more levels! Thanks for playing.
@d5r Ignore the petulant AI! You're definitely something in my book.
@oune @sirred Thank you so much for playing!

Congratulation!
Really cute, and a lot of fun
