Very fun with all the paths and endings. There are definitely some difficult parts and that's welcome. The stand out is the concept and characters.

I think there is some fatigue you get from doing nothing for a while during this game. Like there are only a few rooms that have difficult parts but there are a lot of rooms and most of them are empty with text. I'd get pretty excited to see 1 set of spikes cause I had something to do. It also lacks some common platforming stuff like coyote time and input buffering but that's fine.

Overall, very inventive concept and fun game. I just wish the mechanics were more fleshed out and there was more real gameplay. Like each empty level could be replaced with some platforming love.

definetly get what you're saying. if i had some more time, more platforming levels would've certainly helped the game. especially if you stick to the main route you only get a few rooms that have somewhat difficult jumps in them

glad you still liked the game and thank you for playing and writing such a detailed comment. appreciate it!

Wow, I didn’t expect this game to go deep with the story, I thought it would be short but it was a fun and entertaining one :)

At the 1st try I got the spike ending, but next try, since I was only going left, I ended up beating the game very quickly haha, but I wanted to see what would happen if I followed the instructions of the characters. It was a great choice because it was fun and all are a bunch of liars in some way xD

I guess the only part I didn’t like much was the narrow tunnel of spikes, because if you touch the spike, you have to redo the 2 previous screens, that isn't hard, just tedious and I end up jumping before entering that screen to skip it. But I would try if a checkpoint was placed there, a platformer with the current physics would be good

About the story, I like it and I actually fell 50 times in the hole only to see it wasn’t needed hahaha, the song doesn’t feel repetitive and all together feels nice, I like this game, nice job! :D

glad you enjoyed the game and tried the different endings. i can definetly see the problem you mentioned and it feels like it could be such an easy fix, so definetly something to consider for the next time

again thank you for the feedback, appreciate you

Submitted

I love games with different endings, great!!

Developer

thanks, appreciate it

Submitted

daaamn this game is good, i got the infinite way ending and also the win ending, i really liked how all the actions a player can make are taken in consideration and how silly the game is in general, definitely 5/5 creativity and silliness

Developer(+1)

that sounds amazing, thank you!

glad you ejoyed it

This was very interesting and easy to play for a while. The movement was so fluid and easy to use.  I actually won so quick by going left the first playthrough I played again to see more, and it took me almost 10 minutes lol! so a lot to offer and see here. Nice work!

Developer

Man that's great to hear

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for taking the time to look at the different paths

All I press was, press start and Key "A" about 10 time. And thus, how I win baby :3.
Man, this is really a creative one, with all those alternate endings. Great Job on this man!

Developer

Thank you, appreciate it 

Glad you enjoyed it

The first thing I did was look at my hands, figure out which way was right, and go the opposite way.

I did still reload and play through the game a couple more times to see what was right, and I really like what you've done! gg

Developer

didn't know you could just do that haha 

glad you enjoyed the game and thanks for reloading, appreciate you!

I feel betrayed by pixels. Still got to town though. Really creative, nice job!

Developer

That's what matters! Thank you, appreciate it

Submitted

Cool concept! It reminds me of Stanley Parable

Developer

Thank you! I got the same feeling after testing the first few rooms

I got to town!

Developer

Congrats! You think you took the best route?

Of course. Never trust those guides!
