You're just trying to get a good night's sleep, but these dang ol' clouds keep, well, clouding.. your mind. Pop them bad boys, and watch out for colorful intrusions!

Distractions are so hard to ignore, but once you get deeper into that deep flow state, you'll unlock the moves of the prime primate (that's me btw, just, you know, yeah).

The deeper you go into sleep, the higher your score will rise. REM, of course, provides you with the greatest score multiplier. The longer you remain in that deep REM sleep, the more you'll have made of those 9 hours.

Can you beat 40,000 points? Don't give up and you'll reach that flow state!

I really enjoyed this game. The little Guy animation is super fun when you move him around. I like that the background changes and you got the feeling you are on super speed. The Music fits as well! Good job!

That felt pretty good, the gameplay is simple, fluid, and satisfying, and depth of sleep is a good take on the theme. I always enjoy a fast and hectic game like this the goofy ragdoll animations on the character are awesome. Cool choice of music too.

Good job on this entry :thumbsup:

I liked the music, because of the following reasons
1. We have a more relaxed track on the menu, which matches the "you are asleep - bro" athmosphere
2. We have a little less relaxed track ingame, which is perfectly fine, as the game isn't that relaxed to play, although it is about sleeping.

We reach really high speeds in no time, collecting the clouds, which is totally fine, but I'm just a bad player so my best try was around 30k.

I love the animation of the guy sleeping and the fact, that he is flying around in his underwear. The flapping arround of his arms and legs is really great - i loved that.

So the graphics are nicely done.
Although it would have been nice, to have a better graphical representation for the colord blocks, as i don't understand, what these blocks represent. But this is only a really minor issue.

I liked the game, although i'm bad at such games.

this was just a really fun and humerous game. buy ragdolling around in his tighty whiteys grabbing clouds to fast pased music, a great and fun reactions test game.

I loved the whole vibe of this game and I really liked the sleep meter at the bottom of the screen! :D Great work!

Great work! The character is super cute and there is a good amount of difficulty without being too hard.

Super fun gameplay! Could maybe look at making the obstacles more visually obvious that they hurt you, but great job on all aspects! :)

Love it! At higher speeds it gets real crazy and starts messing with my eyes but I very much enjoyed this.
Ragdolls - check!
Great tunes - check!
Ridiculous gameplay - check!
3/3

I am not sure if you understood the idea of the LD... where would you get 9 hours of sleep from? :smile:

This looks, sounds, and plays great, nice work.

Great game! Goes by so fast! But once you get past the clouds it doesnt hurt my eyes so much haha. Couldnt get 40k points tho ;_; Highest score was almost 30k. Also found it was nice to hold down the mouse button on the character then go off the game screen, release the mouse button, then go back to the game screen and the character movement was locked on without holding the mouse button down.

Man my eyes are bugging out after that one. I love the idea of deeper sleep makes the guy go faster. Rag dolling is also pretty cool. Title screen is pure fire!!! Although my eyes were bugging out, I think it's cool you created a game that gives my eyesight guitar hero used to. Keep up the good work!

very fast paced game. I think it puts Sonic the Hedgehog to shame. The pixel art was very nice and I felt that the choice of music was also very fitting. Overall, a good entry into this game jam. congrats!

This game is bullsh**, who has 9 hours to sleep? :stuck_out_tongue:

I love how fast everything gets when you're in the REM zone. At first it seems totally non-doable, but you can kinda fall into jive and go pretty far if you concentrate. I played this for longer than I'd like to admit. Well done. The music was also pretty ballin too, did you do the music yourself?

@wheffle Thanks so much! You got the experience I wanted to give to everyone :D
As for the music, nah it was the work of a great producer named 'notchris'. Check the credits in-game for a link to his page!

Congratulations on your game, the difficulty is insane, and the ragdoll system matches very well, keep evolving and soon it will reap good results, if it is possible to give feedback on my game I will be grateful, a big hug.
