This is a win for me, perfect use of the theme and creativity with the platforming and puzzle genres as well. You've got 5 all in all.

I'm not going to lie, I gave this game 5 stars across the board! What a fantastic game and I'm not even a fan of platformers haha. Well done!

Oh wow... Thank you a lot !

It pleases me a lot that someone fully resonated whith what I wanted to propose, and moreover on a genre that it's not your favorite xD

It makes me more motivated to continue working on other projects, thanks again for playing and for your comment !

I love the game! This game has a lot of charm and its fully polished! The ending is so tragic though T-T. Honestly, I wish there were more to this game but other than that, this is awesome!

Thank you a lot !

I kept this game very short scoped because I wanted to make sure that what I've already done was cool to play, but yea there are a lot of things to add that I already thought during developement like continuing to hide currency in the menues, having more things to buy/sell, and also having more player agency for the ending because it is indeed a bit abrupt, but I found it fun that you can still play during credits and feel the concequence of this trade ^^

Also, very good job of rating all the game of the jam ! It's very important that people get feedback to continue progress and continue to make great games ! Thanks for your thoughtfulness !

No worries! I always love seeing people make games for game jams especially if its their first. We will never truly have too much indie game devs!

Damn apparently I'm not the only dev to make the player buy the jump button. Good game! Got stuck for a bit because I didn't realize I needed to sell stuff back to progress until I read drahmen's comment. Ending was great!

Developer

Haha yea your entry was fun to play also ! And I'm happy that the fact that you cansell the abilities made it more puzzling to make your way through

Glad you enjoyed the ending ^^ Even if there is no player agency on the final choice I just wanted to be able to jumb and turn while the credits roll because I find it fu xD

Thanks for the review !

Fun game, liked the mechanics. I like the juggling of buying and selling back to progress - very well executed and planned out.

Nice entry!

Good presentation and nice music! I liked having to buy the start option in the menu, that was quite funny! It's very unique for the puzzle solving to involve buying and selling abilities, I liked that. While I liked how big the jump was, it seemed the coyote time was a little short, which made going across the platforms a lil difficult. Also I would've liked if the camera was brought down a bit, as sometimes I couldn't see where I was going to land. 

Good Job! : )  

Developer(+1)

Thaks a lot ! I'm happy that the originality of the gameplay pleased you ^^

Ahah if the coyote time is so low its because it doesn't exist, I didn't put it in the game x3 I thought that the platforming wasn't the most challeging and falling wasn't that huge as a failure, but even if I have polished the movements pretty far I could've tried to add it !

Yea I wanted the camera to be a bit higher because I prefered to make the player focus on what was above him, and make what was happending at the bottom of the station a bit mysterious, but indeed for the platforming section it is a bit detrimental

cool game, the theme is well applied. art style is nice and the mechanic of buying and selling abilities to navigate the map is a fantastic. excelent execution overall

Submitted(+1)

Having an ability to buy and sell your abilities to access more parts of the map is really unique!

Submitted(+1)

The idea to be able to sell back abilities is a nice touch! And I thick it's the first time I see ending credits here! Well done!

Submitted

Great job! I really enjoyed the puzzle aspect of having to sell abilities to go back and reach different areas. Music was excellent as well!

Submitted(+1)

Very cool! I've seen others use the "pay for moving, jumping etc" trope, but no one did the buying/selling idea. I think it has a lot of potential if developed further.
Good job!

very creative idea and funny ending, great job!

I really enjoyed your game. The art style was really cool. Torander2 said it best, a lot of people had a similar idea but I think you executed it well. Nice job!

Submitted(+1)

That was great! A lot of games have been doing the "buy abilities" thing, but I loved that you had to sell them to progress too! The ending was really funny too. Super well done!
