Love this world and cant wait to play more!

A lot of interesting ideas here. I ended up with a morality score of 18, which i don't think is super high (I meandered and took a lot of damage), but I'd be curious to see what would happen if I did things differently. The pacing here is fun; switching to a clicker game between levels, then the game over fakeout. And the ost is probably the highlight. Is that stickerbush symphony I hear? Overall, nice work!

Submitted

This was just great! The music you did was amazing too!

Submitted

the ost... THE OST GODDAMMMMMMN. and it comes with a good game?? sign me up!

Developer

thank you so much!!! if you'd like to jam out to the songs on their own you can llisten to the Playlist on youtube! It even comes with two bonus tracks!

Submitted

This was an interesting game. I loved the music and screwing around in all the different modes! I'm sad I couldn't shoot the scientist, though. Quite an impressive solo project, I'd say!

Submitted

Funnn, cuuuute. Nice work putting this all together.  Why I gotta click the rabbit so many times to get to the next stage :(

I really love the vibe of this game. Super 90s or something. The music is super original and nostalgic at the same time. I wasn't sure how to progress. In test 1, I walked right until I fell down the hole and I think I was just stuck down there. It didn't seem like I had anything I could interact with to advance.

Really cool though! I like a lot of what's going on here. Well done!

did you perhaps play the tutorial??? also thank you!!!!

Submitted

Awesome music and visuals! Good level design too, very impressive for a solo entry. Nice work!

Developer

Thx alotttt

Submitted

Cool aesthetic! The dialogue is quite quirky but it all works well with the theme and gameplay. Nice work!

Submitted

Really fun! Loved being able to pocket and pull out enemies.

Submitted

Very cute little platformer. I felt bad for abusing the bunny in the beginning but the slick controls got me in a flow state so it made me forget all about that haha. Nice job! :)

The grabbing and throwing works quite well! Thought of Wario Land 4 with some of the music lol not sure if that was an inspiration

Submitted

This game reminded me of the 90s! Felt like a wacky cool weird Amiga game... crazy graphics and full of audio samples and bangin' tunes, and hidden areas and just... cool ideas. I loved it!

Developer

YESSS the look and feel of this game was inspired by MS DOS games of the 90s! So awesome you caught onto it!

Submitted

I like this, it reminds me alot of Rystar or Kirby!

Developer

Thank you!!!

Submitted

Very unique experience... The soundtrack kind of reminded me of Wario Land 4 and Sonic Rush. 

Submitted

I got to the real end i think. 
Interesting game, and game over was slick.
The interconnected levels in test 1 are interesting.

Took me long enough to understand that you can take the spiky bombs and to progress beyond the tutorial you have to click on the rabbit repeatedly. But I do like the aesthetics.

Submitted

I did get a little overwhelmed by the mechanics but the visuals were intriguing enough to keep playing! Very slick game :]

"Y'know, sometimes I wonder about if soap is actually real."

  1. On my first playthrough, I skipped the tutorial and had no idea what to do.
  2. On my second playthrough, I clicked on Test 2 and instantly got a Game Over...? Morality score 100? Confused.
  3. On my third playthrough, I didn't use the feather and got a 0.
  4. On my fourth playthrough I went looking for the gun and it didn't appear o_O

Being 100% genuine, this game has a pretty insane aesthetic going on. I have no idea who made this wacky music or where these insane non-sequitur soundbytes come from, but that, combined with the sciency-name and weird rabbit clouds just gave this crazy surreal vibe. Was a little disappointed when I couldn't do anything past Test 2, cos I would fully believe there are like 9 tests of increasingly weird vibe. 

Some requests:

  • Button to skip the intro
  • Controller support worked on HTML but not the downloaded exe...?

lmk if you end up working on this more :eyes:

1.  in all fairness the tutorial option is up there and sizeable to see and i didn't wanna bombard you with  how the game worked in the first level if you ever wanted to replay the game! so not much i could really do about that, sorry

2.yep! thats whats supposed to happen! the game over is a fake out to trick you into thinking the games over and the test is to see if you fall for it! and considering you mentioned the morality score, you were able to get past it!

3. thats also how it works! not using the feather takes away from your morality score as you're choosing to hit the rabbit with a more lethal option(your default mouse).  

4. Gun?.....eh,....i don't remember adding a gun >.>.....you sure that you saw one?

Thanks! and also like what the intro says, the whole entire game(INCLUDING the ost and such) were all made by Jiji! WHICH IS ME HAHAA, Jiji is M3tabble, im the guy, i put my real name cuz i don't refer to myself as my username on games :) 

also also, there are only two tests unfortunately,,, it doesn't go beyond 2. i was only able to make 2, but considering how much content i was able to put into this experience, its still something. 
also im unsure why controller support doesn't work on the downloaded exe, as it does infact work for me, maybe its something on your end??
