Escaper by Krg
This is a 2d platformer game
It is simple concept, enjoy.!
Get the correct key with soul and open lock so that body can escape.

Player movement is from tardov youtube channel with some own changes.
Sounds are made with bfxr and some online stuff.

Unable to parse Build/escaper.framework.js.br! This can happen if build compression was enabled but web server hosting the content was misconfigured to not serve the file with HTTP Response Header "Content-Encoding: br" present. Check browser Console and Devtools Network tab to debug.
Was the build with incorrect settings? Does it work for others?

To fix this you need to turn off compression in Player Settings:

Things I liked about your entry:
- Very solid idea for gameplay
- The soul thing is a cool mechanic
- Cute bouncy character with gelatinous feel/sound to him
- Movement feels pretty good
Things I think need some work:
- Picking up the wrong key is a death sentence, with no way to drop it
- Collision is busted on the edges of platforms. You will just get stuck sometimes with no way to get out
- The tutorial is really confusing and the rocket is alive in the tutorial with sounds and particles still, with only the sprite disabled
- There is no visual indication on walls that you can pass through as the Soul and walls that you cannot. Having a different sprite or color would go a long way in indicating to the player that it is passable
- Some of the jumps are borderline impossible to make
- There is no music, and no art other than the rocket and the character. The exit is just a red box, platforms are just gray rectangles. Just a little something more to match the character and the rocket would be great
- Visual artifacts on all of the key sprites
Overall, I think its the foundation for something really good and interesting, but I believe there are quite a few kinks that need to be ironed out.
Btw...I don't think its very nice to just leave a comment on someone else's game saying "not good". I saw you did that on another person's page (https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/50/ice-olation).
At least be constructive and try not to be rude.
I actually made this game in like 20 hours and there were so many thing to do but I forgot.
I will try to not rude
The door is the same color with ground, which is confusing.
"wrong key" part seems too harsh, I guess some positive items like ...time stoper or something would be better.
please Play again if you have time, thanks
I had fun playing the game. Great entry!
