The Player has to try to have the Blobs not fall out of their backpack, they might stack on top of eachother and thus be unstable

I really like this. The music is great and the visuals are awesome! I wish I didn't have to restart from the beginning when something falls out of my bag though. Other than that this is great, I liked this a lot. Amazing job :)
here's the thing, I really like this
but the part where the section restarts completely when something falls is infuriating
but I really like the conecptttttt
Pretty nice & simple, having such comments on interactive objects makes it funny, nice job!
thanks!
An interesting and highly experimental combination of a platformer and a visual novel.
thanks!
Okay, this girl definitely needs a bigger backpack xD
I really loved the aesthetic, such a cute little game. All the characters and dialogue are so cool, and the music is so cozy; it’s just really hard to keep more than two critters in that tiny backpack.
Thanks, yeah, a bigger backpack would definitely be useful
Hi Frizja, first of all congrats on your submission! I can see the passion and effort you put into this game.
I think the main appeal of the game is its storytelling, but sadly the mechanics hindered me from enjoying the experience at its fullest. The unstable platforming is unfair, unforgiving and distracting even though the intention clearly was for it to be a simple side gameplay aspect. The clunky physics shadowed the storytelling of the game.
I wasn't able to pass past the fair scenario where there are 3 boxes after a 3rd pink bea drops (almost out of the backpack).
Nevertheless, the art is beautiful and the story elements are good, I really dig the character design. The overall artstyle reminds of of Night in the Woods, one of my fav games ever.
Kudos!
Thanks, yeah the 3 boxes part is probably the hardest platforming in the game, you have to go really slowly there. And yes, the art was definitely inspired by Night in the Woods.
Super gorgeous artstyle ! The writing's great too.
Sorry for the glitch were you get stuck, It is probably because two or more blobs are on the same height and that is causing the level to get reloaded twice, which causes issues. If you get the bug it would be nice if you reload the page, to at least try the rest of the game, just please don't mention it, because it is currently stressing me out a lot. (I know, that it is there and you can totally rate down the game if you hate it because of the bug, but please don't mention it to me. You can say bad stuff about the other parts of the game, it would just be nice if you don't mention the bug, where you get stuck, as I already know it exists and I kind of don't want to be reminded of it, sorry.) I did try to put a lot of effort into this (I am sorry, if this sounds like I am implying others did not, I really don't mean that, I am sorry, I am sure everyone put a whole lot of effort in it), and it would be nice if you do still play it (You don't have to though), it's just bad coding on my side.
Hey, it happens, please try not to get too disappointed over it ! You still managed to ship something and it's a great feat
Congrats on finishing the jam !
Ah, thanks, yeah, I guess stuff like that happens.
The artwork was lovely and great but in the game i keep getting stuck.
Rate and review my game Save the apple
Gloom is mean :< I liked the game but the platforming was difficult, not in a challenge way but the feel of it in general. I loved the art style and the banter :) Overall, very nice work!
Thanks, yeah, Gloom is really mean
i like the art , but ig it bug , i got stuck after i went outside i conntine to fall to the gap between house 1 and 2
that all
Ah, thanks for the feedback, did you do anything before getting stuck? There seem to be bugs where you get stuck, but I can't really replicate them for some reason.
Oh, I just found the bug, yeah that really should not happen
