Déjà Vu by BabaDesBois

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

A little sheep is lost in his dreams and it sounds like a déjà vu.

A cute puzzle game playing with multiple parallel levels, looking a lot like each others. But there is more than meets the eye...

Well I really loved what I played, the character is really cute and the gameplay idea is really good, and I would have play more with pleasure if there were more levels :D
I just felt that the music's volume was a bit too low, I had to boost mine so that I can hear it (and what I heard then was sweet).

I witnessed the two gifs getting in sync and giving the impression that the sheep jumps from one to the other. I can die in peace now.

More seriously, this is a great puzzle! I appreciate that the main mechanic is not directly explained, and instead is left to the player to find out. That is the kind of game-design I love! True, I was a bit perplex on the level where it is introduced, but once I saw it, wow, what an illumination! Maybe as a colorblind there's something going on with the colors I don't see, but even with that the rules became pretty clear. The level-design after that is also well thought. Each level has its little twist, and presents an interesting idea. the game might be short, but never feels redundant. That's really a great achievement!

Well it's short, a bit easy but it was super relaxing. Great little game, i love the graphs but seems like they arn't home made.

@redsorel The graphisms are totally homemade ^^
Thanks for the feedback :)

@babadesbois I can't vote for graphics, that's why i said that. Strange then, why don't you participate in this categorie? They are awesome.

Very fun little game with a good polished feel. Loved the puzzles and was very pleasured to understand the "Déjà vu" mechanic. Awesome!

Wow, I didn't know what to expect and I ended up enjoying myself quite a bit! The sprite work really kept me in there until the puzzles finally hooked me. I hope you plan on continuing development because this could be really awesome as a fleshed out idea!

Interesting mechanic, i would love to play a longer version of it. It's very well polished and cute.
It's a solid entry, good job guys !

Interesting idea, it could become a nice little puzzle game if further expanded. I reached the final stage without really understanding how, and by the time I understood the puzzle I felt like an idiot. The graphics were nice and the music very chill. But it could have been a little bit longer.

Since this is your first jam, my number one tip for your next jam is to keep it simple and wrap up the mechanics / graphics of the game faster, even if you have to make some sacrifices, so that have more time to spend on designing the levels and not do it at the very last moment (which I guess is what happened here, judging by experience).

Awesome idea, beautiful art and music! I love the peaceful vibe :)

My only problem with the game is that I want more levels! :D

La mécanique est super intéressante, je serais très curieux de voir ce que ça donne dans plus de levels et à quel point elle peut être exploité.

La musique et les graphismes sont vraiment bon. Le jeu est super polish, il y a des sons et des animations pour plus ou moins tout, et c'est très agréable :)

C'est une très bonne participation, Bravo à vous!

Very clever concept. it took me a moment to figure out what the deal was but once i got into it i really enjoyed. WASD seide of keys didnt seem to work correctly.

@steelax Yep sorry about the WASD, we have the french binding by default. We will add auto rebinding in a later version :)
Thanks for your feedback

Un jeu très coloré et avec des pixels j'adore le gameplay et le différent tableau sont vraiment sympas si vous allonger la durée du jeu c'est un jeu que j'aimerai biens rejouer à l'occasion top :thumbsup:
