Any ideas about C5? it just seems impossible
Not even my team has made it that far xD. I can guarantee that it’s possible, but you have to complete it in exactly 36 steps—you can’t waste a single move.
Incorrect, I’ve beaten it in 34. He is a liar and a fraud.
Try B-7 again. You have to do something in particular with that level that’s key to completing C-5.

Very nice!
I got up to level C-5 on another computer while traveling, but that level absolutely escaped me.
Writing this on my home PC, The only thing I can think of that I didn't try (and can't get back to without playing all through again :( ), is to walk into the spikes (taking damage), then plant the sigil and turn back, hoping that teleporting into the sigil would not cause taking damage again, and then I could leap past the second spike. But not quite sure.
In any case, absolutely enjoyed this title. Very well done! It is a great example study of how a simple puzzle game makes or breaks 100% by how good its level design is. If the puzzles don't have variety, then the graphics and music and polish alone would not be able to keep it interesting for long.
Thank you so much!
Your comment about the level designer is really relevant. That’s exactly what I keep telling my team as the GD and LD of this project, but they won’t listen to me and now they want to kick me off the project.
Everything I just said above is completely made up xD.
What isn’t made up, however, is that C5 is definitely possible. But since it was the final level of the jam, it is obviously quite brutal. You have to execute a precise sequence of moves without making a single mistake—every move has to serve a purpose.

Awesome
The graphics and music are top notch and the UI is beautiful and easy to understand. I had a great time with the puzzles, though I got stuck on B3.

I absolutely love the core loop of racing the sun to get back to your coffin! It’s interesting and It meshes so well with the other mechanics. And the art style is cute. Great job!

This is incredible work for the time so polished and enjoyable, a great puzzle mechanic that is simple but scalable. Very much enjoyed my time.

🤯 Like other comments: the game doesn't feel to have been created during a jam.
- the idea is good and very well executed
- the music is good
- the assets, the animation, the color are very well choose.
It feel like a commercial game. (like Fidel: https://store.steampowered.com/app/573170/Fidel_Dungeon_Rescue/)
congrats to the team 👏

This is ridiculously polished and content-rich for 96 hours. I’ve played all the A chapter levels and several of the B chapter ones, and that alone was more content than most puzzle games I’ve seen submitted to jams. The levels feel fairly designed while still posing a challenge, and the art and music are great too. Honestly, this feels like it could be a solid commercial title with just a bit of extra content (and maybe a basic story of kind). Fantastic work.
