How does your game fit the theme?
A side-scrolling platform game fell into an infinite loop due to a novice developer’s mistake. As a skilled gamer, you must find a way to reach the next level.

Liked the level design! As others have said, start from the start is a pain tho :(
That's a really fun concept — a broken game world stuck in a loop is such a clever take on the theme! I liked the self-aware humor and the idea that the player has to "fix" the developer’s mistake through gameplay. Very creative!
If you get a chance, please check out our game too! :)
really good, i wish it was a bit longer tho. the only 2 problems i had was that 1) if this was a full game the flight ability would be broken lol, no but tbf i get it as an ending. 2) man how long is this tutorial?!!? lol, i get its to make the game longer which is good, but there was no like movement control pop ups and stuff, so apart from the title i wouldnt be able to tell its a tutorial. I think it would have worked better if you just called it level 1 lol
Thank you for playing. I 'm really glad to know you beat the game.
1)That's why the flight ability comes last—lol. The idea is to gradually shift the game into another genre by giving the player new abilities.
2)Level 1 was actually the original name, but I didn’t have time to change the assets, so I used those provided by the Unity tutorials. That’s why I renamed it the tutorial level
it was cool exploring the different paths with the abilities :) the next level is when you get to this bright blue part? then i made it :D
Yeah, you beat the game! I'm really glad to know someone made it through
Man, I love your game, the falling platforms were unexpected. However, I don't like that I have to start from the beginning when I fall. Nice and easy game after a hard work or gym session.
Thank you for playing. I really should probably allow players to restart from where they obtain the power-ups.
The game's premise was interesting and fits the theme and the first time running through was fun, however after getting upgrades and dying I got sent back to the start of the game with no upgrades. The autoscrolling level made this quite frustrating as the run back wasn't challenging, but maybe it's a skill issue. Really nice work making a full game in just one day though, huge props!
Thank you for playing. You're right—I should probably allow players to restart from where they obtain the power-ups.
The purpose of autoscrolling is to force the player to loop back, but it might be interesting to add a power-up that allows movement to the left and right.
I think that would be a great quality of life feature!
Also maybe instead of allowing the player to move backwards and potentially break level design, you give them a speed-up/boost button which could lower the frustration of repetition and raise the skill ceiling :)
Really cool idea, I loved looping back with all my power-ups and finding a whole new way I could explore in the level! Losing all the progress and power-ups on death is a bit brutal though. Nice work, especially on just the last day of the jam!
Thank you for playing. Totally agree, I should probably make player able to restart from where they get the powerups.
The cat is the reason why I click this...
Anyway, NICE GAME!
Thank you for playing! Looks like I pulled off a successful marketing strategy lol
Solid and creative! But it feels like some aspects could use a bit more polish.
Thank you for playing. Right, I wish I had more time to polish it.
Nice work, I love the character animations
Thank you for playing
nice game man I really enhoyed it the only thing that bothered me a little was that it was a bit slow and if u died it was a bit frustrating to wait to get all your power ups back but still good job
Thank you for playing. Totally agree, I should probably make player able to restart from where they get the powerups.
Pretty cool, i like the powerups and i saw in the description that there are secrets yet i couldn't find them (maybe i haven't played long enough) and it was pretty annoying to die and having to start everything from the start, especially when the controls are a bit hard
Thank you for playing. Right, I should probably make player able to restart from where they get the powerups.
I uploaded a walkthrough video to the page—feel free to check it out
I like the artstyle (especially the cat in the thumbnail), could not beat it tho :( feels like it could you a bit of polishing tho
Thank you for playing. Yeah, I wish I had more time to polish it.
I uploaded a walkthrough video to the page—feel free to check it out
I can't beat it :(
