The graphics put me off at first glance, but once I started playing, I noticed how interesting the animations looked and after a while, I realised that I really liked the character designs. Somehow though, it doesn't mesh well when put together. \nI'm not sure why exactly that is but it might be the background art and tile design? They're not too bad but maybe it just doesn't match the characters.\nThe game mechanics were pretty nice and intuitive after I figured them out. I was a bit confused about the whole wallclimbing thing, but once I got used to it, it felt obvious.\nIt's pretty impressive for a game jam game, it really does feel like a complete adventure.\nOverall, I had a fun time playing and I hope you enjoyed making the the game!","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":967569,"author_name":"BmanStudio","author_uid":"bmanstudio","epoch":1683294835,"text":"Nice and simple game, great entry!

The very wide trees blocked me at the bottom, but I could pass through higher up. The narrow trees I could pass, but sometimes you can climb them? That messed with my brain for a moment, but I trial-and-errored my way through. \n\nAt one point I picked up an item while I lunged down and fell to the ground, but the little dialog box that informed me of what I'd found was still up and out off frame, keeping my character locked in place until I pressed [E]. \n\nThere was some awkwardness with pacing\/movement agency when I delivered an item and then had to wait a few seconds without being able to move. Similarly when completing the ritual, the little waiting time can't be expedited with a button click, and I felt like that frozen moment wasn't necessary.\n\nDragging items into place in the ritual was a little awkward because the 'Tetris shape' (I'll just call it that for now) of the item stands out visually more than the item itself, so I kept trying to drag from the 'Tetris shape' rather than the item itself, which didn't work. An outline when hovering over the item might work better there.\n\nWhen I finished the game I only got the choice to press Q to quit, but I wanted to play again. I was playing on web, and just reload the page, but I'd suggest making it as easy as possible for a player to play more of your game.\n\nThat's the only real critical feedback I can think of. The art is cute, plenty of clear animation and character poses to give the game a pleasant vibe, and nice music to set the tone. Jumping\/landing sound effects would've been welcome to perhaps add some game feel.\n\nAll in all a very nice entry and I enjoyed playing it!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":970542,"author_name":"Astramorae","author_uid":"astramorae","epoch":1683376046,"text":"A simple game, pretty charming, though.
