The dual purpose of the vacuum is very unique and done really well! The art and effects are spot-on as well and I especially love the ending XD. Hope to see this idea expanded upon!
The movement feels good and I love the concept + story!! Great game :)
Getting multiple use mechanics out of the vacuum is great. And I like the whole castlevania x luigi mansion vibe, absolutely a gem of a combination. The first time I played I ran into some kind of bug on the second area where it no longer let me hover with the vacuum when jumping over the first pit? I had died from bats and respawned at the beginning but every time I tried to jump and hover over the pit (with or without sprinting) it wouldn't hover or lift me at all. Regardless, loved everything you did here. The reverse vacuum for the limitation is also perfecto.
It was really fun, especially the money-collecting part—I had a lot of fun there. Also, the drawings and the concept were really beautiful. I think I fell in love with the white-haired guy 😂
We’d love it if you could try our game!
I freakin love this concept haha. Luigis mansion meets Castlevania. But yeah honestly really well executed too
the character animation is great and the vibes are immaculate. Only thing is I somehow cannot find the 13th piece of rubbish in the first room.
Its on the ceiling! The idea was to make you wall jump to get it, but I guess that was unclear, sorry :/
ohhh I see! Found it! Sorry I am noob and I didn't know how to wall jump, I had an inkling it was beyond the screen somewhere. Ended up mashing the keys and somehow made it up the wall lmaoo. Anyways, the next stage was super cool! I loved the way u can fly using the vacuum. Cant beat it cause I die from the bats too fast, wish there was a way to kill them. Some webs got stuck behind the barrel for the skeleton and I couldn't get them either. But I love the overall vibe of the game and the art! Its so detailed!
ok I’m realizing I made things harder than I should have. You can actually suck up the bones of the fallen skeleton and use them as projectiles! Thanks for giving it another go 🫶
ohh thats a cool mechanic! and no problem!
Good job! I love the dialog part :)
This game was awesome! I loved the novelty with the vacuum and it fit the contest well in both the theme and the limitation, One of my favorites in this jam so far!
very well done the game is a bit hard and very punishing other than that it is very well done. really like the concept
This game should get more love! Well done. I just think it is a bit too hard and also bit too much dialogue. Presentation 5/5
