That's something I always wanted to do in my projects but never got around to. I also appreciate how the camera has some inertia. This makes the game feel very smooth. \n\nNow on the downside, I think you know this, but the game is really short and you cannot die. Also the jumping mechanics don't seem to have a real purpose.\n\nIt seems like you ran out of time, which is unfortunate because I can totally see how this game could have become a neat little experience with a bit more fleshed out story and actual things to accomplish. \n\nMaybe you can spend some more time on a post-compo version with more narration and adventures. I would revisit it. Tag me if you do.","likes":4,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"negativice","author_uid":"1008047","time":"2017-05-02T14:30:18Z","epoch":1493735418,"modified":1493735418,"text":"@cerno-b You pretty much summed it all, thanks for the feedback! I am still pretty green when it comes to making games and still have lots to learn.
