This was a fun little game. I like how meta you made things both with the ending and the skeletons. Minor improvement is that some of the halls could have been a bit shorter or the player walking speed could have been a bit faster.
Can't wait to see the second version since this had a 1 in it

Liked the meta humor :) Could have been a bit more engaging if there were a bit more involved puzzles, but very impressive work for just by yourself!

BTW, it took quite a while to load for me (on a macbook) - to the point where I only waited long enough cause I got distracted on my phone :sweat_smile:

I was about to complain about the loooooong hallway but due to the joke during the game, I don't know if I can ahah well done. But I'd like to say that the game could really benefit an increase in the speed for the player.
A lot of personnality for the animation, that's really good.
Nice entry, well done !

Ha ha ha, funny cute little story. I like the little animation you put on the figure. The gameplay can be more innovative by adding more creativity on top of the visual novel. But overall it's great!

That was quite amusing! Very meta :grin: And I really like the exercise book aesthetics and the walking animation.

Yeah, it could use some improvements, but even the game itself knows it could use them :laughing: Well done!

This was a fun Zelda style game. I liked how each item led to the next one, although I wish the game had let me figure out the items out a little more on my own, rather than just telling me exactly how they worked.

This one was really fun! It was a nice calm adventure. I loved the meta joke of running out of time to animate the skeletons, and then also the big meta ending. Really fun. I liked the grappling mechanic too. It was short but sweet. Also I have a feeling the wizard after talking to that demon didn't get all that stuff done for the jam XD
5 stars for theme, honestly.
