If I jumped just before the moving platform changed direction, the player would change direction mid air too - to follow the platform!\n\nIt must be that you parent the player to the platform when they land, but you didn't unparent them while they're in the air. As a result, I missed the jump, and then it tried to warp me back to the start, but glitched and I just got stuck warping into the void...\n\nOh and another small thing, if I double tapped jump, it would open the settings menu. I assume the navigation on the top right button is set to \"Automatic\", and just needs to be swapped to \"None\"\n\nOther than that, I love the artwork (I'm a big fan of that low poly style) and the music was pleasant too (if a little repetitive after a while).\n\nNice job! :smile: ","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"SimonL","author_uid":"1146856","time":"2020-10-08T10:27:30Z","epoch":1602152850,"modified":1602152850,"text":"Graphics were really awesome.

Nice graphics and a good idea regarding the theme!\n\nA few things I found weird: First, the double SPACE opens the menu, which gets in the way, also, menus seem to stack, for some reason. The way the player basically stuck to the platforms seemed a bit weird, but that may be considered as a feature :smiley:\n\nLastly, I would have liked a volume control for music and sound, because that was very loud for me.\n\nStill, good work putting all of this together in such a short time, and most importantly, on your own! The game looked very well polished for a game jam game by one person!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Ericbolseiro","author_uid":"1154203","time":"2020-10-08T10:52:55Z","epoch":1602154375,"modified":1602154385,"text":"I read your description about being your first time at all here.

If you walk up onto the bushes while the platform is rotated 90\u00b0, then wait until it's normal, walk to the end of the bush, and wait for another 90\u00b0 rotation, you'll have been pushed far enough outside of the regular 2d gameplay plane that weird things start happening:\n![bug.png](\/\/\/raw\/420\/e2\/z\/39c1e.png)\nI did this twice. The first time by maistake, and I tried to ignore it and just jump to the next platform, but it was small and I was at the wrong depth, so I missed it. I also think I missed the death collider, because the level didn't restart. The second time I did hit the death collider, but the camera went crazy trying to reset.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Narom42","author_uid":"1196573","time":"2020-10-20T17:29:10Z","epoch":1603214950,"modified":1603214950,"text":"Nice one for a first jam :) Some checkpoints may have been nice to make the game more forgiving :)","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld47\/217733-7d227f30a5e635fc870c995306b7a98c.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/matthewdavisgames.itch.io\/loopin-looie","text":"Youtube"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"59844","g_author":"1217723","g_event":"LD47","g_eventkey":"76","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"271578","g_title":"Loopin' Looie","g_status":"PVT1","g_place":"1445","g_commentcount":"17","g_site2_node_id":"217733","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"217733","n_urlkey":"271578","n_parent":"212256","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/47\/loopin-looie","n_slug":"loopin-looie","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"217723","n_created":"1601484167","n_modified":"1601919067","n_version":"676705","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":217733,"parent":212256,"superparent":9,"author":217723,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2020-10-05T16:48:37Z","created":"2020-09-30T16:42:47Z","modified":"2020-10-05T17:31:07Z","version":676705,"slug":"loopin-looie","name":"Loopin' Looie","body":"\u200bPoor Looie, he was bored one day on the space station and decided to plug in for some platformer fun.
