Electric Jezebel by OttersDen

[raw]
made by OttersDen for LD31 (JAM)
"Nothing exists outside The Screen."

Jezebel is stuck in the system! Manipulate the existence of objects around you by pushing the screen.

Our very first game; A small puzzle platformer. We were short on time at the end, but we hope you enjoy it.


Left + Right to run.
Down to interact with objects and enter doorways.
Spacebar to jump.
R to reset the level if you get stuck.

Cool game. I like the music. :-) Sometimes the scrolling of the screen is a bit slow. Keep that good work. :-)

Very fun game the character times some time to get used to, both due to how much it slides and the bunny jumping.

Excellent graphics, and really unique take on the theme! I liked pushing the screen to see more of the level and reveal some of the platforms. The jumping could use some improvement - it was a bit frustrating.

This is a really neat idea, good way of getting around the restrictions of the theme. The puzzles certainly had me stumped - a great turnout in terms of thinking in such a short amount of time.

The graphics did seem a bit cobbled together, though.

Didn't work for me. Pressing enter did nothing, and after that Unity was giving me errors.

Amazing for a first attempt!
One pet peeve of mine, A and D could be used for movement, but S couldn't be used for interactions, I had to actually use the down key.

Good game, the concept is simple but it's quite interesting. I think you really got something with this game.
The only problem I had was the frustration of having to push again and again the screen.

Anyway, this concept is really interesting and the graphics are pretty :D

I think the moving screen breaks the theme. Graphics are nice, controls are not easy, a bit sticky.

Great game. Great interpretation of the theme, nice visual style, and just about the right puzzle difficulty.

I'd love to see more of this!

The most polished game I've seen so far, with an amazing score and really nice graphics. I would love to see this fleshed out into a full game!!

Graphics are nice but i think some animation could improve the overall. Puzzle platfrom challenge seems to be here but i felt stuck when i pushed floors with the rigid jump.

Moving the screen around to reveal the level seem like the opposite of having the entire game on one screen. I didn't realize the circuitry parts were hazards until I walked over them.

Nice puzzles, quite addictive. I wanted something "more" to justify the theme.. Clever idea anyway! :)

Really nice way to push the theme (pun not intended)

Neat mechanic and nice use of the theme. A little bit of tweaking (jumping and edge pushing) and some additional levels and this is ready for full release.

Congrats with your first game! Very interesting concept. Can't stop playing. :)

Wow. Just wow. Excellent use of theme and terrific game and level design in case of ramping and making the player think out of the box literally. The only flaw I found was sometimes when falling down you could die without a warning.

Also Kudos to using a woman of color as your main character (with an awesome name! (my middle name is jezebel, thats why i played :D))

Nice game. I like how the main character looks, it looks like a real game character! Other than that I found it a bit too hard, but I did like how you integrated and played with the theme. Very nice effort!

Cool art style and smooth movement/controls. Moving the screen is a little slow. Really impressed by the puzzle mechanics!

Enjoyed it a lot. The challenges with the portals, doors and the screen movement are a great idea. The only thing that bothers me, are the enemies which don't seem to fit with the overall art style. But still good job :)

That third level is hard! I didn't really make it to the puzzle part, but the game's well done! The character looks amazing, how did you make it look so good?

Unity web player does not support Linux OS.
You may want to add a Linux executable :)

dunno if it quite fits the genre. and it was very frustrating when trying to see what comes next, a lot of times I had to kill my self just to find out. graphics and controls on the other hand where great, just go too frustrated from having though throw myself into the abyss. if you could scroll with the mouse or drag it too see what comes next tho I feel that would improve your fantastic idea

Cool puzzle platformer with a nice mix of metal and physical challenges! Great work and a nice mechanic for the theme.

Very innovative game mechanics of having to push the screen and actually change the game world by doing that.

Camera is really hard move across the screen. Maybe it would be better if you'll fix the camera behavior

Ok, the idea that behind the screen nothing exists is awesome! It gives opportunity to create awesome riddles.
Graphics are nice, but music is fantastic it creates great mood. Good job! :)

Interesting game, the player didn't seem to match the visual styling as much as the rest of the artwork and enemy characters though.

I like the in-game music a lot, the menu music seemed a bit out of place though.

Anyways, these are just minor things, overall you guys did great!

Nice game! The controls are pretty tight, although the screen-pushing feature makes it a bit difficult to jump onto platforms sometimes. Really great for a fist attempt, good work :)
