Classic 3-D runner game---which is extremely impressive for 3- hour long games! 

Overall atmosphere is very well built. The build-up in the background is subtle---but elevated my experience. As the course slowly gets harder,  I started to get pressured from the background, almost making many mistakes.

The overall gameplay feel is very well established. As a 3-D runner type game, the game feels very established with a great movement and jump feel:)

And this bit of part is more of my personal opinion... I do not oppose AI art---in fact, I will look into the modelling AI for my future projects:) However... the cutscene feels a bit... off. This is purely my personal opinion.

More than happy to see the "Flora" series exceed the "Tanith" series(which I thought would never be beaten in terms of numbers of games) after a brief leave from the jam for me. Great job! (As always)

Thanks for the feedback. Could say a bit more about the cutscene being "off"? I'm always willing to receive feedback. It was aimed to be a continuation from the end of last week's jam, and in fact I directly copy/pasted the "win" scene from last week as the "intro" scene for this week before adding some dialogue. I can imagine as a standalone game it makes no sense about why Flora's talking to her shadow, or why her shadow is in a lamp!

Thanks for the explanation! Yeah…joining the narrative at this point feels sort of abrupt, and honestly a bit ridiculous 😭.

I think it’s more of a general preference, but when there is detailed ai art as the entire background, it amplifies some of its flaws in my opinion…. But that’s more of a personal taste.

Glad to see your games again(and hopefully later)!

Does this entry use AI generated images?

Yes. The background screens on the main menu, introduction and win screens are AI generated (created with https://designer.microsoft.com/), as is the Flora model (created with https://www.meshy.ai/). Thanks for the prompt. I've added these links to the Attribution section.
