Overall, the game is pretty enjoyable. It has surprises sometimes, which pleases. I am sure that you can make a good game using it as a prototype.

Talking about main pluses:
- It is interesting to explore your world
- Interesting problems to solve (like throwing saw)

Turning to cons:
- It is not obvious how to use some control, of example ground attack
- A lot of bugs need to be fixed. Like I stuck under a beam few times. Ones I jumped on platform I died.

Wish you good luck in improving the project.

The character design is interesting, it was fun playing with the physics of all the objects!

Thank you for your great comment and your advice. There are still improvements to be made but we did the best we could to finish it on time.

Nice game, here are some thoughts. There was quite a lot of backtracking at the start which made it painful to replay when I died. The level could IMO be a little smaller so that there is not so much dead space where you just walk around. It was not always apparent what is the way forward and for some of the leavers it was not obvious what do they control (and vice versa, that something is being controlled by a leaver).

However, I appreciated the music and sounds, the graphics was solid, and the worker showed some solid fighting skills to get to his nail :D

Good job!

Cool platformer, smooth controls and combat mechanics, and the level is surprisingly long! Good job!

I enjoyed it, the level design lack of a clear guideline, but it was fun, good work !

Hey, I don't know if I am just dumb (which is possible) but I got stuck after breaking the first wall. I just don't know where to go to.

I liked the construction site world! It would have been nice to have a checkpoint midway through, it's pretty frustrating to die in the sewers...
Do you plan to keep working on improving it in the future? :-)

@seeko-studios have you activated both levers? this activates the right and left elevators :p

Unfortunately, we didn't have time to set up checkpoints ... but be aware that another environment awaits you after the sewers.
Why not improve it later, that would be cool :)

Oh, no! I found my nail only to lose it again. The tragedy! :laughing:

I really liked the main character art! The face, oh, the face! But the walking animation looked kinda awkward. Levels were fine but felt a bit empty. And the bottle throwing guys are just the worst :laughing: . I actually used the barrels as a shield while approaching the first one.

The last boss is completely possible to bypass. I just walked to him and walked behind him while he was performing his attack animation. I don't know if that's intentional. Also, I really liked the look of the boss.

I also tried to use the boxes to create a bridge over the lava. And discovered that they are not falling down.

It was fun to experiment with this game! It definitely could use some polish, some sound effects, animation rework, something to fill the levels. But what jam game could not :wink:

The music I didn't like so much - it's not bad but gets very repetitive very fast.

@fabula-rasa Thank you for your feedback :D know that the lava is calculated to make just the distance of a jump héhé :p I know that the music is quite repetitive unfortunately, I did the 3 songs at 2:30 am Tuesday, I didn't have time to work much deussus ^^
fabula_rasa29 Apr 2021, 10:26
@mrsamafu Oh, yeah, I know you can jump over the lava. I jump over the second lava pit without building a bridge :grin: But, as there are no checkpoints, I figured it will be safer to build a bridge at the first pit, as the boxes were right there :)
