Nice game. I like the premise, we've all been there, trying not to stick our feet in our mouth. Weirdly chill vibe and the platforming was pretty well executed. Art was pretty nice and the whole thing was pleasant on the eyes!
Hahah that's so nice and cute, I really feel the meaning of this game xD I love the graphic style and the finishes, and music sounds really cute. Great work !!
It was pretty cute! I had some issues along the way with say the end timer and grabbing more time on the same frame and being able to move in the start cutscene. But I thought the art looked great! Platforming was a bit difficult on my end but thats all I can say on that!
Nice color palette and mood for sure. I found the platforming controls a little difficult as i kept sticking to the edge of platforms, but overall nice work.
Very nice take on the theme. Platforming felt pretty good. It was unclear in the beginning that there were more thoughts than needed, and it would have been nice to be able to restart without watching the opening cut-scene over again. For a jam game, however, that is mostly just nitpicking. The audio felt good, and the visuals were done very nicely
I love how you've packaged this with a simple narrative to sell the idea.
One thing I noticed is that the moving platforms affect player velocity in weird ways. This is pretty common when using physics engines; the physics tend to get in the way of the player's intent. It might be worth looking into more explicit movement systems for future games so you can get tighter movement.
The idea is great situation all of us have been through, controls are a bit hard, and platforms should have had an option to descend from them, still good game, matched the theme, well done!
El control de este juego es suuuuper satisfactorio, quizá tienes poco control en el salto para mi gusto, pero en general he disfrutado mucho jugando, juego cortito pero muy guay ❤
Neat concept with the two tying together very well, and good fit for the theme. The platforming I think that a "drop down platform" action would be nice to have but other than that it was great!
This is one of the most positive takes on the theme I've seen so far! The only thing I'd criticise is the length of gameplay. It took me about a minute to see both endings. (I assume there's no more than two, since I did some more ambitious tries later and kept getting the same win ending)
BUT: I guess you could easily expand it with more (maybe even random) dialogue or reply options for different amounts of collected thoughts. Seeing the story progress could be an interesting hook for such a simple platforming game.
It overall felt very polished and the "joke" saturation felt good, albeit the game's shortness.
I would love to see this expanded to a whole conversation. Its a clever idea, and I think you all executed it very well. The platforming feels good and the level design is nice. The art looks good and cohesive, and the soundtrack fit well. Great job!
Ohh, I really like this! A very creative take of the topic, I really liked how this is a happy ending, not like 99% of all othe entries, which are highscoregames (like ours *cough*... I really disliked this jam's topic!! :P)
The graphics looked very unique and beautiful, like a real game on steam :D (Really like that coal drawing aesthetic!)
Controls felt very smooth, I would have liked it if you can move one platform down with the down arrow (or S button) although that's probably how you didn't intend it and admittedly added a new challenge to reach those parts :)
Being able to skip the intro would have been nice as it's a rather fast paced game (if you suck, anyway) but that's a minor detail almost nobody has time for at a jam ^^ (neither did we xD)
Also: yay ^^ I'll give it a another shot later, maybe my smooth talking can make them marry me on the spot :P
Very cool graphics and a sweet take on the theme and the platformer genre. The difficulty level is a bit low and it'd be great if there were more "levels" but this criticism (not enough of a good thing) are about the best and most common critiques on these Jams.
I really like the graphics and theme. I almost lost after winning by not realizing I had to wait for the time to run out once I got 20 clouds. I was running around hitting all the red things and realized my score dropped. Cool entry, nice work!

I love the particle trail behind the player! I think the game was a bit too short, but I enjoyed the story. Perhaps the story could continue, where you're talking to each other at the coffee shop, and you need to respond to their questions in a similar manner to the first level. The graphics are pretty cool, I enjoyed the black and white aesthetic. Nice work!
I like your interpretation of the theme, it's quite close to ours in some way ❤️🔥
The platforming controls work fine and the balance between trying to get clouds and time is good. The art is very good. It felt a bit dark/sad, was it on purpose?
Thanks for the game, I had fun!
FYI I had issues on the start menu of the web version on chrome and had to zoom my window for it to display properly. In the game everything was fine.
