This was so much fun and I'm blown away by the amount of effort! I'm going to be playing this all week to try and get all ingredients.
Omg thank you !! That means so much :) I'll work on the save system soon so you can quit without losing all progress!
Nice! It is aesthetically nice looking and has sweets animations
Tysm ! That means a lot I spent so much time on the animations x0
Very well done! The game is beautifully drawn and animated and sound is tasteful. Others have mentioned that limitation isn’t really relevant to the gameplay all too much compared to the level layouts themselves. Finally, I am incredibly impressed with the amount of content you managed to fit in that short time! I assume you had previous assets, or are just very skilled with Aseprite. All in all, very well done! This is a very nice polished product! :)
Thank you so much :) I totally agree with that criticism, I could have better integrated time !
I actually made everything for the jam ! It helps that it's my job to draw things ^^
But thanks, that means a lot <3
Ooo I really like the game! Great job!
Thank you !!
Fun game! Cauldron guy plush when?
Thanks haha I don't know I'll keep you posted tho:P
Really nice, the amount of content is crazy! I love the animation of the pot running around haha
Thank you so much ! Haha I love the little guy
I felt very accomplished once I was finally able to set-up my upgrades in a way that let me get into the GG room! Very surprised by the amount of content you were able to pack into this short jam, very well done.
Yay congrats on finishing the game ! I think it's pretty tough in some sections.. oops :P
Thanks for the kind words :)
Amazing game, shocked by how much you managed to make in such a short time! Only thing is notice is i dont feel much of the time pressure as the enemy, but besides that the game is awesome on its own!
Thank you !! Means a lot :) I agree that the limitation could have been better implemented, or more creatively.
Hi stranger ! rrly like this game ! The chara is super cool !!
thanks my love <3
Awesome visuals, and i really likes the sound design! But the difficulty was too high for me unfortunately, not very skilled at platforming, and i couldn't understand the main progression, there's so mane locked ingredients but i found only one
Hey ! Thanks for giving the game a shot and for your feedback :) I'm sorry I should have designed the level with a bit more accessibility in mind I fully agree. As for the upgrades, once again I agree they're kinda hidden and out of the way :/ You can find them on the left arrow in the main menu - make sure you have enough money though !
Well done! I really liked unlocking the ingredients as they had creative features not just speeding you up. It was rewarding to see the next one I could get! Great gameplay loop
Thank you ! That means a lot, I really tried to find unique uses for ingredients that weren't just flat upgrades but that could combo in interesting ways. There's probably some broken combos to find!
very fun! the sprites are super cool and detailed!! great job :D
Omg thank you ! I'm really proud of my little Cauldy boi :D
Very cool game! The visuals are great, especially the main character who is cooking pot. Limitation was used perfectly here. I hope you will continue developing it
Thank you for the kind words! Means a lot :)
Quite addictive, little precision platformer, the controls are spot on, the level design is great and it felt very fun to play, gather the points and unlock the ingredients. I have ended up playing this way more than I should lol. I even ended up trying to speed run with 1 hp and dash (not that my time was any good since I ended up gathering even more points to unlock stuff lol)
Thanks a lot ! If I spend more time on this I'll defo add a speedrun leaderboard to challenge my friends ^^
I haven't tested all build combos, I'm sure there's some broken stuff ! Thanks for playing
I was surprised at how much I wanted to collect all the ingredients, but remembered that time was my enemy :O Nice take on a platformer kinda-roguelike game !! But you don’t feel punished at any point, I feel :| I mean apart from having to walk the long way again
Thank you so much ! I totally agree, I originally wanted to add random rooms to make the walk back at least different each time but ended up not having time. I'll take this into account if I work on it any further, tyy !
oh also encountered a small cute bug where the sprite continues playing the walk animation even when you don’t move :))
yess the bane of my existence I spend like 2 hrs yesterday trying to figure it out but gave up :(
I’m also godot dev u can send me the code for the lil guy and I can try to have a look ?? :))
Sure ! I used a player controller by someone else but tweaked it with my spaghetti code ^^
I can share the git repo ? Idk how to do this lol
Oh yeah itch doesnt have messaging thats uncool :O
Here’s my discord : fifigrade_ send me a text there !!
Personnaly I go simple with the code for the animation for platformer characters:
func _process() –> void:
––if is_on_ground():
––––if Input.is_action(“left”):
————sprite.play(“walk”)
————sprite.flip_h = true
––––elif Input.is_action(“right”):
————sprite.play(“walk”)
————sprite.flip_h = false
––––else:
————sprite.play(“idle”)
––else:
––––sprite.play(“falling”)
This code can be optimized but its not THAT BAD :D
