Fun jam game! I'm useless at games like this but I made it several screens in and I like the presentation and intro with the dubious bird character - well done! :D

Honestly, I really enjoyed the game and have quite a few things to say about it.

I really loved the normal TV section. The movement feels great, especially the double jumps between the walls. The up/down TV was really difficult to get used to, but I actually really enjoyed the inertia too!

Buuuuut... I wasn't a big fan of the gun and dash sections. They fit the unstable theme really well, but the movement felt a bit off to me. I guess that's probably just personal preference though!

The diegetic tutorial works really well! The only thing I found confusing at first was figuring out what was actually interactable.

I also love the idea of the dead TV sprites, but I'd probably limit the number of them. I'm pretty bad at the game, and in the last up/down section I had so many dead sprites that I could barely see the spikes anymore :c

Overall, really enjoyed it! Congrats!

I dont have the necessary amount of skill to finish the game, but cool concept using different types of movement physics to move around the cenario, really got the theme. Great work.

Quite good, and very difficult. I do wish the corpses disappeared after a bit, though. On the level where the purple thing was introduced, I died so many times trying to use the gun to move upwards that I could no longer see my character under the pile of bodies. I'm not good enough at platforming to finish, but the mechanics and how they were used in the level design for the levels I got to were great!

Edit: I can't get past the punching glove level. Honestly, it's probably just a skill issue, but the dash doesn't take me far enough to pass all the spikes, even if I wait to fall a little then boost. I'm also confused on what the punching gloves do, since I thought they would give me an extra boost or something, but nothing seems to happen when I hit them. Anyways, I'm gonna continue trying later, bc there's like 100 of my corpses rolling around on that level alone.

Hey! Yeah, removing the corpses would be a nice addition, thank you. The punching glove actually recharges your dash, so You can use it twice. Should have cleared that up too, thanks for feedback

Thanks for telling me about the glove! Just finished the game with 303 deaths lol

I played for about 30–40 minutes; now I like the game, but I also hate it. How many times did I die... I think about 100 times; with each death, I got more and more angry, but it doesn’t matter. Now, about the game:

At first, to be honest, I thought it would be a boring platformer, but when I first saw how we die, I was pleasantly surprised. Then, when the second character with a pistol appeared, I was even more surprised. When you combined them, I was already thinking, “Well, that’s it,” then the third character appeared — I was surprised again. Then the fourth character, and after that I couldn’t take it anymore and just quit on one of the levels. The sounds are very good, the art is minimalist and fits the game, fits the theme, and is original. Overall, it’s great. I'll give you 5 out of 5 by all criteria, you are the third game on this jam for me with such a rating. 

I hope you will play my game)

This was really fun. I REALLY love the death animations, it made me less annoyed everytime I mess up! In the beginning the platforms I was supposed to jump, I thought they were background decorations until I collided with them and went "ohhhh". But its a nice game, awesome work!

I loved it :D <3

Animation was good and the game was so fun.

Can you rate and review my game Save the apple?

I had fun playing it. Made it to the 3rd antigravity level where the spikes are sper tight up and down.

Submitted

This was quite fun! I enjoyed what I could play. Unfortunately I am playing on a laptop with no mouse so once you get to the gun level, I couldn't get past because it was too hard with the trackpad lol. Love the dying animation though and learning the movement.
