what are you supposed to do in the first room?

Couldn't get out of the first room so I couldn't fully experience what it had to offer. The game looked good though.

cool art
I think the level design should lead the player to the objective
my experience is this game is just stuck in the first area
hope you do better in next jam

Amazing artwork! I really enjoyed the lovecraftian vibes that it invokes. Shame you ran out of time for gameplay, I'd love to see what you would do with this environment.

I like the art style, obviously the game is unfinished so there's not much to really play though. Really not a fan of the slippery slow physics for movement and jumping.

It might not be finished, but it's a great start. The pixel art is fantastic, and I love the atmospheric music. I followed you on itch so I'll keep an eye out for any updates you do on it :thumbsup:

Nice little tech demo with great art. Not at all related to the theme, but I appreciate the idea of jamming out a concept that you want to continue. The first thing that stood out to me is that slow movement in games feels really bad. Everything else is chill and pleasant, I hope you keep up the project.

(っ◔◡◔)っ💓 Thank you all, for your feedback!!

Overall I will be working more to refine the movement so its not as slow and add more content in general, while I continue work one this concept piece.
