How does your game fit the theme?
In inkic you "Just get started" on creating a magic shop and from there one could argue that "Just getting started" on the puzzles would also fit the theme.

Well well well, if this isnt a SUPER COOL IDEA ??
Really nice work !! I love the visuals, especially for the ink/spell making part !!
I got stuck on level 6 :( but i enjoyed the others levels !
Good work :D
I really liked it! The art was really good and the feel overall was great! Such unique gameplay, I really really liked it
It's a shame that you ran out of time for sounds, it would have added to the gameplay experience. One thing that I found a bit frustrating was the lack explanation of the controls in the game (specially the ink blocks) and that when you lose a level the level doesn't reset it just goes back to the state when you died... which made level 6 (?) impossible to pass for me, since when I noticed the ink blocks it was too late because the red box had fallen into oblivion.
yeah I've said before and I'll say it again that we overlooked explaining ink blocks and also there is a restart button in the top right so you can restart the entire level if you want. Its very unfortunate that you didn't make it through the entire game but thanks for playing and for the feedback regardless!
Really unfortunate that you couldn't add sounds, cuz' it would've elevated the experience a lot. I had a lot of fun and the style is really neat, some of the puzzles had me scratching my head for a moment, great job!
I missed having sound, but the visuals are really good, and I really enjoyed the gameplay and the puzzles to create the spells
Great game! I like the characters, the artstyle and the story. I didnt heard any music or sfx probably mine bugged or idk.
no yours wasnt bugged, we just dont have any. We did just not have time to add it unfortunately
great artstyle, great story, great mechanics, BUT PLEASE, FILL YOUR DAMN WALLS, i got stuck multiple times inside walls when exiting portals, and because they arent filled inside, they didnt push me out, so i was getting stuck inside them and sometimes forced to restart, but besides that, great game! Also after reading all the comments, it looks like im the only lucky one that caught the "TIP: On level 2 you can move the platform at the top of the screen!!!" on the itch page lol.
Hello, first of all, thanks for playing. Second no need to be so hostile, but also yeah we saw this issue on one level but we just didnt have time to patch it. We are using composite colliders for our terrain mostly to simplify the line renderer and seems that collider us just an edge collider. It will be one of the things I'll fix after the jam when I have time
Really neat game! love the concept and its executed very well. If you had more time the game could use a more in depth tutorial and maybe some sfx, but its still quite good :)
Thanks for playing! And yes I agree! Life did get a little in the way for both of us unfortunately
Fantastic art here! I love the idea and the narrative is awesome too! I think the game could do a better job explaining itself, but what's here already is epic!
Thank you so much! If you mean Level 2 needs a little better explaining then yes its something I will have to look into after the jam. But if you got stuck in any other place because you didn't get the mechanics please tell us!
just played it, i loved the concept of a man casually making spells for customers also loved the art and the game intro and the boxes you can manipulate them even tho there is no sfx pretty cool game.
oh k i found the ink block ! You should definitely have talk about it and explane it i think. Really good game !
Yeah, I think everyone is having trouble with that part. We kind of just overlooked it and I really wish I could fix it but I dont think I can do any modifications until the jam is over
Went ahead and added a tip in the itch.io description to hopefully avoid a little confusion
ok cool ! Except that i repeat the game is amazing ! One of the best i came across until now ! Levels are well design and (except the second one) understandables and clear. It took me a while to find some solution but never frustrating and i enjoyed all along
I need to ask before rating: controls are nowhere to be seen. I found alone that i could jump with space. But is there a dash or something eles ? Bcs the level 2 isn't possible with just a jump. Other than that and so far the game is incredible, and more than that beautiful ! Art style is amazing!
This is so creative! I liked a lot! This is such a solid entry, with such a nice art-style!
Yeah1 fun game, just I didn't understand the ink block mechanic. So, I kind of got frustrated. Besides that, pretty good game!
Thanks! And yeah we did just forget to add a piece of text explaining the blocks
Cute game! I didn't quite understand that I could move the ink block platforms instantly, as I didnt see them but other than that it was great!
