Glamour by Ka1Zyz

[raw]
made by Ka1Zyz for Ludum Dare 48 (JAM)

An atmospheric sidescrolling puzzle game. Relive the unspoken past of an old man, stepping deep into his mind. Is this room evidence of his glorious past, or mere grounds for his delusion?

Cool cinematic point and click experience. I think you did a great job bringing a narrative to live without using any dialogue or narration.

Love the atmospheric game! It's really immersive and the art was amazing. One piece of feedback would be to fix some of the resolutions of the art. Sometimes the art felt blurry, maybe due to scaling problems. Other than this, really nice looking game!

Lovely art, and storytelling without words. That king sure knows how to use a sword...

Great use of colour and an overall beautiful art style! The only minor comment I have is that I was confused for a while, when I opened the map for the first time and the game would not respond to my key presses. This is the only place in the game where I needed the mouse. Maybe you could have gone for a mouse only control scheme? Like in a point and click adventure? Great entry overall!

I really like the style of your game. The art of your game is great. I have been playing for a long time and I like your games very much.

Excellent animation, a great balance between scope and polish. This was definitely a neat experience. The puzzles were fresh and pretty intuitive. Of course the visuals could always be polished more, but you do what you can with the limited time.

Wow, I am blown away by the art style. Nice little puzzles in a beautiful story. Well done game. (If the map puzzle would react to my keyboard it would be even better)

I wondered why a game with such beautiful art has too few ratings. I guess it's because html version takes ages to load...
I have macOS Big Sur, opened it in Chrome and I've been waiting for 5 minutes already, don't know if it'll be able to load(
UPD. it opened quickly in Safari

Well done art, music sometimes seemed too epic for me. Nice puzzles, but in the end the king started to move by himself and a green scene appeared.Was it the end animation?

Artistically this is one of the best games I have seen in this game jam. I love your style, it fits really well with the story your game tells, and the music is well suited to the mood. I didn't find the puzzles all that engaging for their difficulty but they worked perfectly to tell the story of this game. About the only thing I could wish for would be for more to the story, I was hooked until the end. Very well done!

@natalia-dushkina Thank you for playing this game and give us some advice!The final appearance of the green screen is the end of the game, It means all this is like a dream, the kingdom is still in ruins.

The art style is great. I really hope that your art style and scenes are switched. It’s a bit easier to get stuck when you reach the second level.
