You have 15 combinations. This was a cool puzzle platformer type game. Interesting the way how the items connected to the abilities. I would have liked to see some purely cosmetic options as well, but for what's here, you did a great job!

Thanks so much! I was originally planning for you to change the color of the mouse, but I ended up running out of time :’). I’m very glad you enjoyed it!

Really cool game! I liked experimenting with all of the different combinations of equipment, very polished gameplay!

Developer

thank you!

Good movement, but I couldn't figure out how to get past the first level, I couldn't collect the crystal

Developer

Sorry about that, the crystal’s meant to be an interactable. The goal is to collect the cheese, then return to the door. Thanks for letting me know though, I’ll try to make the goal more clear in the second round!

Really love that the customizations aren't just cosmetics but actually affect the gameplay a lot!

Developer

thank you!!

The game feels great, and the customization is well-implemented.

Developer

I appreciate that :)

Nice work with the equipment impacting the mechanics!

I personally don't like platformers, but I really liked seeing the results of the customization in-game.

I was hovering over the item, hoping for an in-game description/tooltip before choosing blindly (I found the description on the game page for the gear).

Nice art assets, would love to see music/sfx for added satisfaction!

Developer(+1)

Ooh that could be a good idea, having the controls in the description is a bit clunky so I might try this out. thanks so much!

This was honestly my favourite game of the jam so far. The movement is great and the sword feels really nice. I hope this game is continued in the next rounds. If you do I would make sure to really lean into the speed running side like neon white. These were my times (I know the last one is pretty bad)

Heist 1 - 6.98s

Heist 2 - 4.52s

Heist 3 - 4.59s

Heist 4 - 5.71s

Heist 5 - 8.98s

Heist 6 - 6.98s

Heist 7 - 11.35

Developer

Thank you so much!! Some of your times are way better than mine, lol. what combo did you use?

You managed to implement the customization options well, I like the animations especially, good work!

Developer

Thanks! I appreciate it :)

Felt cool to mix themes, like magician and ninja equipment on the same character.

Developer

aw tysm!

I like the gripling mechanic, and because I can grapel arrows then I can cheese the game, thats good design, I liked it, I wish you had more customizaion options though, averall great idea, would defenetly play in round 2 to see where you take it.

I would appreciate it if you check mine out.

Developer(+1)

thanks so much! I’m not the biggest fan of horror but I loved your game :)

Cute platformer :) Well done on designing levels that justified the use of each item! I would also risk my life to steal some cheese

Developer

Developer(+1)

Neat game, I really liked the fling gameplay with the crystals! Well done :D

Developer(+1)

tysm! :)

Submitted(+1)

I thought about using the goal is a similar manner, so it's good see someone else did it better than I would've lol. I would love to see this game continued in a further round. Great work!

Developer

aw tysm!
