( spoiler maybe? ) Honestly... The game is pretty good.. It reminds me Mario 64.. Which is great thing.. Because I love Mario 64 game.. I honestly hope this game release full game in the future.. Because I love how it plays out.. Oh althought.. I wish there More than just jump.. Like maybe.. Press x attack enemies.. To make game feels better to play.. And other stuff more than just jump.. And the camera sometimes can be pretty annoying.. Like sometimes zone too far away from the player.. And also sometimes gitch out ..so yeah.. That was annoyed.. But other than that.. The game is pretty good.. Puzzle is simple.. The game looks even amazing.. The Game play is pretty fun to do destroy the enemies.. and also pick candy to get new life.. Story is just about you goal is to in top to get the chocolate.. That it.. Is mostly focus main game play.. Which I do like.. Because I rather to play game no story or not much but game play is fun.. Than.. The game full story more than game play.. And there more stuff like.. This green water.. That you need to avoid it.. Otherwise they give 2 damage.. Pumpkin shoot red Lazer at you.. And also give you damage.. There.. And the fact that you can even play the game pad as well.. Make the game even more good.. And the fact you can play the game pad in this game.. Make it even more better.. Know i haven't beat this game yet.. Because I am kinda busy other stuff.. And like to review other game..but I still can say.. This is pretty good game :)

Art Style Is Amazing, But I Wish There Was Something Other Than Aesthetics That Made This Game Interesting. the Gameplay Was A Pretty Simple 3D Platformer. For The Time You Had Though, This Is A Huge Achievement, I Just Would Have Preferred A Shorter Game With More Mechanics. I Also Had Issues Where The Enemies Would Hit Me Before I Could Land On Them, Making It Impossible Not To Take Damage, But I Used The Web Build So Maybe This Is Just An Issue There.

Out of this world presentation for a jam, captures that demake style perfectly. The character designs, animations, camerawork, vfx etc are all fantastic. The gameplay is a bit simplistic and desperately wanting one of those 3D platformer mechanics like a glide etc that lets you fine tune your positioning above enemies/platforms. I didn't get as far as the double jump, but imagine that would have helped. I also played with keyboard and mouse so take it with a grain of salt, but I also found myself often slipping off the other side of platforms and the like. Some kind of additional agency regarding slamming down on enemies and crates would also be nice. Mind you, I'm absolutely being nitpicky here because what you did get done is stellar.  Its clear where the work went and I can absolutely see this being incredible if this is what you were able to get done in a week.  Great work, and I wish you the best of luck!

Amazingly well put together! I can't even believe this was done in just under a week! Its so polished and the controls are great too. It was really fun and I ran into a crash or bug when I died on the WebGL version but I think that's usually how it is for all of us! No bugs and really fun overall, bravo!

Hey, first of all I want to say that your past games were a huge source of inspiration. Some of your games actually feel and play like authentic console games of the era, and this entry is just like that. Platforming mechanics are super smooth and floaty just in the right way. The visuals are spot on.

Incredible work as usual.

This game reminds me of SM64 from beginning camera, the style and environment

Really enjoyed this game, I will try making something like this in future to study how do guys made this

The graphics in this game is top notch! It reminds me of the PS1 games of the past! While I couldn't beat it and kept on getting hurt or dying due to the goblins hitting me even though I stomped on their heads, I still had a pretty good time playing the game. Great jam entry!

This is awesome! Thank you for creating the webgl build and letting me play this, i loved everything about it. Fullscreen is a bit slow for me but otherwise very nice job!

Looks like we have a winner 🏅

Inspiring stuff

Idk how u managed to do this in 7 days, incredible job! Great character design, perfect aesthetics, feels super nostalgic. Super polished, really nice audio and visual effects, they really add a lot. 

Awesome game overall. Only thing I could mention is that enemies felt a little unfair sometimes, their attack area may be too big and damage often felt unavoidable. Loved it anyways! Congrats

Really polished and clean for a 7 days game jam game! Polished sound, art, animation, and music. Really great!

Please make a Mac or WebGL version, this looks amazing and would love to play but can’t as i’m on Mac here.

Developer

Thanks! I am working on putting up a webGL build soon, though I will most likely have to scale back a lot of the current visuals for it to run ok in-browser.

Submitted

That would be awesome, thanks in advance :) Browsers are very capable of running 3d games if properly optimised so i’m confident i’ll get to enjoy this soon!

Impressive AND nostalgic!

as others have mentioned this game has suuuuuch a nostalgic feeling to it, immediately bringing me back to early Playstation era, playing Spyro, Bandicoot. Enemies and movement could use some tweaks, it's a little punishing for my gameplay. But how it looks and what you've got setup is great. Halloween theme is playful, cute but not too spooky, but that's okay. Sometimes my heart needs a break from all the jumpscares.

Really loving the retro 3d platformer feel. This one is the most underrated submission I've seen yet. I would really love to see a full release version of this!

Super polished visuals and fantastic music. This immediately gave me nostalgia :) Definitely nailed the feeling of this era and genre of games. Could definitely use some more polished and dynamic character movement, and more forgiving enemy hitboxes/hurtboxes. Also, was that the Mario 64 Goomba noise I heard?

a very fun, stylized little collectathon, would love to see this as a full game!

This was a really fun game to play! I played the 0.1.1 version, the only issue I had was the camera keeps wandering from where you set it with the right stick, no big deal if you continually use that stick to 'observe' the world you are navigating, awesome job!

Submitted(+1)

It's very good, but I think the combat and collisions could be improved. (game ver 0.1.1)

This is so fleshed out for a jam game! You have a wonderful vision with the aesthetics, the music suits the world so well, fun bits of charm everywhere. Simple platforming with obvious goals and everything is so polished. Well done!
