Cyclic by Rodgems

A simple walking sim (I think?) with some original music and bad original art.

I LOVE the idea of exploring the world as different animals. Truly unique, and the music is also awesome!

Awesome job on the music! It would have been fun to have other animals in the same scene, featuring more interactions. Enjoyed it!

Music for each animal is truly amazing! Idea of exploring the world through the view of each animal is really interesting. Also thanks for the calm atmosphere – it really helps to calm down after three days of hardworking

Great music and the art is alright, generally the mood is quite good but the "game" is confusing for me atleast

Amazing music and atmosphere :) This entry shows that jam games don't have to revolve around exciting, never-before-seen mechanics. A game can be just as good if it succeeds at inducing a certain vibe or emotion. And this one definitely does!

the idea behind is realy good , also great art but envirment could be better
and i also didnt understand how to play and i guess if we had some objectives for each creature it would be better

Very pretty game (in terms of general atmosphere and soundtrack). Felt really soothing to play, I loved it, even though environment graphics could use some work

Very wholesome! This was enjoyable to play amongst many mechanic driven jam games, I could chill out and not be over focused on figuring out how to play. Nice music :)

Pixel art on all the critters is adorable. Very chill relaxing experience.

A wonderful, kinda magical little experience. Really enjoyed the music and the minimalistic art. The different movement styles are a nice touch, I especially enjoyed being a frog :)
