Ranked from 7 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does the game fit the theme?
The game centers around a deceptive tutorial system. While the player tries to retrieve their Golden Egg, the tutorial actively gives false instructions—tricking the player into jumping onto spikes, running into enemies, or avoiding the correct path. To win, the player must learn to "trust no one" and ignore the tutorial's traps.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All pixel art characters, level design, and custom GDScript code (including player movement, trigger systems, and dialogue logic) were created from scratch during the jam using Godot 4. The background art for the levels and the sound effects (SFX) were sourced from external free asset libraries.

Really nice game. I'm ngl started to rage abit but I think I'm just sucky at platformers. Really great job!

Developer

Thanks. Honestly, it's impossible not to get stressed when you find out everything is deadly in the worst possible way.

A funny little platformer, reminds me of a troll game

Very cute art! The platforming was a little hard to control but it was still fun. I also seem to have some strange characters (control characters?) at the end of every line of text, so you might want to look into that.

Developer

The characters were emojis kkk
I will check

Ahaha, really enjoyed this. Love that you can't trust anything, including the tutorial, what you see, and your own gamer instincts. Cute visuals too!

I thought it would be cool to focus on the tutorial, only to discover that everything is a trap kkkk.
