Wow, crazy work for 4 days. Such a pretty game, both audio and visual. Really creative storytelling, too! It seems I wasn't the only one getting stuck in the wall, though...

Submitted

This one is really good! I know how messy collision can be so we'll just pretend it's working just as intended xD

Developer

Thank you, yeah big mistake trying to go for a circle collider. Never again :)

Very good, I wonder why in the ending, we are shown to be punching somebody... I only punched the letters, and the messages they produced were good "im proud of you", "i will work for them".

Crazy good art style! I loved the swings.

I didn't expect the art to be this good. I love it! But I kept getting stuck in the wall while climbing it.

Developer

Yeah, should have used straight lines / polygons instead of a circle. Don't know why it never crossed my mind until after the deadline. Oh well, now i know to never use circles as colliders, they are extremely buggy for platforming.

I absolutely love the narrative and how the gameplay is synchronized with it. Such a unique way to present the themes of life. Really enjoyed playing it!

Oh, so this is like proper art youre doing here. Sorry for breathing the same air as you. (all jokes aside really amazing game you have made here!)

This was an amazing concept and was beautifully executed. The one small bug I was running into was my character would get caught on the outside of the clock circle, and I would just have to spam jump and move to get back in.

Yeah the character controller is not really optimal for a circle collider. Just realized it would have been better to use a polygon collider with straight lines. Oh well, now i know :)

Superb theming, I played to the end.

Developer

What did you think about the ending?

Submitted

It evoked reflection on how I'll feel when everything is said and done. We actually discussed doing a 'life countdown' type game but didn't come up with a good way to do it :)
