How does your game fit the theme?
Every time the player dies, a corpse is left behind, and that corpse becomes a tool: to press buttons, block traps, or open doors. If the player dies again, another body is added to the level. Over and over, the cycle continues. This creates a clever loop where each death is part of the solution. You’re not punished for dying — you build on your past deaths to progress

This was an interesting concept. I like having your actions in one loop affect the next. It would have been nice if the older corpses lasted a bit longer, especially on the dash jump level. I messed up the jump a couple times and had to redo it. Not terrible, but would have been nice to have a bit more time.
thx for ur feedback and i will fix and improove everything after the jam (Follow me if u want to play new updates)
Neat! I've been seeing a lot of this die use your corspse repeat but it's quite fun!
Cool concept! I was considering making a platformer about dying and coming back to life too!
I initially couldn't find the key in the dashing level. I had not seen the key due to the camera, and i did not figure out there was a key until the camera finally panned to the right! Game felt a little short, and I was hoping there would be more puzzles involving the dying mechanic!
Also: i don't like having to press K to die, it's too far away! And the corpse does not spawn in the place i expect it to spawn.
Good job on making a game!
thx for the feedback i will fix the bugs and add new levels in the update after the end of the jam
Those hidden doors!!! 🙈 those Level Design are frustrating WHICH MAKES IT AMAZING!!!
well played (>_ 0) b
IIII WINNNN! Cool concept. The game felt a little short and maybe missing some more player actions But I like the overall game.
yes thats because i had only 4 days i will fix and polish the game after the jam follow me
thx 4 playing
I liked your intresting take on the theme. The tutorial cutscene in the beninging (lol) was a great idea for your game. I only had an issue with my corpses not spawning at where I actually died but asides that nitpick I really enjoyed it!

Fun game. I was disappointed it ended so quickly to be honest.
am so happy to hear that thank you so much and follow me to play more levels after the end of the jam (i will update it)
simple and clean
simple idea and unique, love it
That's very short! It was starting to ramp up :D
if you want to play more levels just follow me and wait for the upcoming updates thank you
i really like the concept of dying and using it to ur advantage imo its very interesting! GG
thx , happy to hear that
Nice platformer, I really was in the mood to play some. I found some bugs like when the player pushes the dead body sometimes it doesn't go on the button, but I managed to work my way around them
thx i apperciate your feedback. Dont worry i will update the game after the jam ends
Nice work! I love a little platform puzzle and this scratched the itch. I did however run into a bug where I couldn't push the block around, but it resolved after a few deaths. overall I enjoyed the game :)
thank you so much and if you want to play more just wait the upcoming updates. I apperciate ur feedback
nice work, my game coincidentally has the same concept of dying to proceed so it makes my enjoyment of yours much more. only thing is i wish the dead bodies would spawn where you died, but nicely done!
yes a lot of players told me that so i will fix the bodies spawn after the jam ends and thank you for your feedback
Nice visuals and transitions. Enjoyed playing the game although there were some bugs. But great stuff 👏
thank you so much for your feedback and i will fix the bugs after the jam ends
No way... I had the exact same idea about dying to progress, but your game did it so much differently than mine. Pretty fun but a bit confusing - why do the corpses never appear where you died?
Thx for your feedback and i will fix the bodies spawn in the upcoming updates follow me to play more
button click is glitchy
nice game, the mechanics and stuff work pretty good!
if you decide to still work on this after the jam you should work a little bit more on the artwork side but overall is a nice and fun game to play, the puzzles were fun and most of them can be skipped with dash but are all fun
also spamming k is fun as hell
thank you for your feedback. And yes i will work on the game after the jam ends and polish art and sfx... Etc if you can follow me to play the next version i'll be so thankfull
While a little buggy, definetely a fun game, and I would love to see more levels :D
ths for the feedback you can play more levels and without bugs (i hope) after the jam ends so follow me to be the first player
