Ludum Dare #48compo
Am I only dreaming?
In this game you wake up in a strange world and you don't know for sure if it is real or not so you descent deeper and deeper to find out more about this strange place. You cannot know for sure if it is just a dream or if it is reality or both? On your way deeper and depper you have to go through a few stages before revealing a part of the mystery.
Controls:
- Move Left/Right with "A" or "D"
- Jump with "Space"
- Go through doors with "W"
Known Issues:
- The player can get Stuck on Walls
- Jump does not work some of the time
- Player is sometime shaking by moving
- Player can get stuck in one Space where it is a Softlock
- Could use some more Stages
This is my first Game Jam and I hope you enjoy the game!

Graphically, it's minimalistic, but in a good way. The puzzles provide just enough entertainment to keep you going and see the game through to the end.
The last level has some unfair elements to it - but this may be due to the camera. The first 2/3 platforms were fine, but there was no way to see the key and know that there were spikes below it or platforms before/after it, you had to fail a few times in order to figure that out, not a huge deal, but isn't exactly fair platforming :)
Overall great work!
As mentioned above, difficult to hear the voices under the sound.
The mood was set really well. The piano and dark setting really worked.
The platforming and puzzles were very easy, which is good for players to learn mechanics, but a few more levels with increased difficulty would be good.
@corbeng Thank you and I was not inspired by LIMBO but by Hue
@morphine thank you very much for that detailed feedback
@bidentworks Thank you
@pincushion Thanks, I would have added more stages, but sadly I had no more time
@bubakgames Thanks for the feedback
- Adjusted the volume of the music
- Adjusted the camera in Stage 6
or did it? ;)

@jose-bonilla Thanks you so much for the kind word and yes i hope so, practice makes the master.
@marcmagus Thank you for giving me the chance to have my game on your stream and sure I think I will revisit that to get sure I can improve till the next game jam
Good voiceovers (hint: if you use something like Audacity, there's an easy feature to clean up some of the background noise from your clips. Something I just figured out after someone suggested it in a comment on my game. You can also snip off the end of the clip to remove the "mouse-click" sound from when you stop recording!)
Good compo entry!
- Making the jump (and jump pad) sounds more subtle could have improved the more melancholic athmosphere
- Having a "Retry" option for each level would have helped, as you can get stuck (e.g. in the level with the stair made of crates)
@lazzor Glad you enjoyed the game! I will definitely change these things after the jam since I don't want to add something new before it ends
@udo2 Thank you for the feedback! I´ll definitely make a restart button, but i realised that there was a softlock a bit too late.
