Bright Burning Beelzebob by AwesomeAlliterationAlliance

[raw]
made by AwesomeAlliterationAlliance for Ludum Dare 49 (JAM)

All he wanted to do was party till hell froze over, but destiny had something far greater planned for little Beelzebob. Also he accidentally locked himself out of the party, but that’s not really an engaging premise, so scratch that!

Venture on an epic adventure that makes Dante’s Inferno look like a cuddly walk in the park! Help the little flame find his way out of hell and back onto the dance floor by jumping around and doing other platformer things! Pay attention to your surroundings, unless you want Beelzebob’s flame to go out forever!

It’s quite simple: Oil = good for flame, Water = bad for flame

Controls: Movement: W,A,S,D Jump: Space Menu: ESC!

controls could use some polish, but the premise and aesthetics have me hooked. I especially like the cracks of light shining through, reminding me of what's waiting above

I liked the animation, but unfortunately couldn't get past the fourth screen. The jump seems to low and I didn't know what else to do.

Such an amazing game! The fact that you have an intro cut-scene that is so adorable and well made combined with the fact that the levels also look amazing is a huge plus :)

Very well made and put together game. The one area I would wish to see some improvements in would be the gameplay as I got stuck on some places.

Nice implementation of the topic!

@gasgiant Thank your for the feedback. There is a trick to level 4. You can use the water to make yourself smaller and jump higher.

Love the mechanics that when you are smaller you can jump further!

Great intro cinematic and endgame animation! The gameplay was quick and clean. I think that it could have benefitted greatly from just one more mechanic, but it really was fun!

Very nice art, controls are a bit wonky and I got stuck in one of those moveable boulders when I landed on it. The intro cutscene is very cool, and the music also slapps

The artstyle is incredible especially with that opening animation. Lighting, character and level design are all phenomenal. It might've just been my laptop but the game was running at surprisingly low frame rates, maybe need some optimization for all the graphics? Love the game!

Like the Game presentation with the logo design and the Gameflow. I see there was 9 people on that game working on. Great job :)

Fun puzzle platformer with a very intuitive tutorial for its mechanics. A little too easy for my taste because the solution was pretty obvious for all levels. A few traps or moving obstacles could improve this a lot. I loved the art and story segments. Very nice.

Really solid game. One of the best I've seen so far for this jam. Graphics were great, loved the cutscenes. Concept was really interesting and the level design was superb. Sometimes I got stuck in walls and I got stuck inside of some rocks occasionally but other than that, great game. Well done.

Everyone who worked on this game did a great job, from the animation to the character design, everything works well together to create a fun and innovative puzzles. The level design works really well at teaching the new mechanics.

Very solid! Good amount of bite-size levels and nice art/music and cinematics especially. If I'm to criticize it would be some wonky collisions and room to polish with stuff like coyote time and footing. And while the mechanics work well they aren't very inspired or varied.
Good job!

Nice little platformer. The simple mechanic makes it fun and enjoyable. However I didn't like the fact that this game has 3d elements in it. They don't seem to add much to the aesthetic and they make the game very demanding which add to control latency while playing on not powerful hardware. Other than that I finished the game and it was nice to play it.

Great game! Everything works together to create a great experience. Only issue was with the collisions. I kept getting stuck on objects without being able to jump.

It was a really neat concept however I can't seem to jump in the game for some reason, I really wish I could continue because the art style is super cute.

Lovely expierience! Mood is excelent, idea is excelent, execustion is fabioulous. I love it. AND THAT MUSIC, OMG, it builds such a great mood!

The only think you could look at is optimization ;)

Hey awesome atmosphere and mood. I couldn't jump sometimes and I think it was due to physics objects? Either way cool entry, you have a knack for mood building.

One of my favorite games! They character art and level design was fantastic. I agree with some of the other comments that the collisions were a bit wonky sometimes and I got stuck on ledges every now and then. Other than that, really awesome game!

What a wondeful game! I'm in love an intro cut-scene that is so adorable :3

I stuck between platform and rock (((

But everyone who worked on this game did a dandy job.

The level design works really well at teaching the new mechanics. I enjoyed it!
And so awesome music and art!

Congratulations!
