thanks ! tested it, quite fun. It's quite crptic and hard to undrstand exactly what I do wrong sometime (like sometimes I can't link some wall and I don' get why. But the idée work well, and would love to pla a more polished version of thi

Due to the shader, some "disabled" seams are hard to differentiate, as some seams are desaturated which means their disabled

Dude this game is really fells like a trip... The visuals are really like something I haven't seen before, and everything have such a surreal atmosphere.

Honestly I was a bit overwhelmed at first.. The dialog continued without me pressing anything, there was a chat on the bottom left, and the art did make it hard to understand what I'm looking at. I did figure it out eventually - but honestly I never stopped being overwhelmed lol. The controls sometimes flippped on me, and I don't think things killing you belong in a game like this where you want to take the time figure things out

I will say the moment I died only added to my surprise and intrigue - you created a truly unique world, and I wish I was a bit smarter and fully explore it :)

yeahhh... xD i should have really gotten someone thats not me to playtest my game, as i kept stacking difficulty because i thought it was a bit too easy ;-; mb

Not too sure what to do with the mechanic. I feel like the visual aesthetic was super nice, but it made the gameplay really hard to understand. I finally got the concept of using the gold spool on other spools, but it didn't ever do what I wanted it to do. An easier first level would be great just to demo some of the basic stuff. I wish I could get past the puzzle part because the lore was really intriguing with the chat in the bottom left. I loved that touch and the dialogue boxes looked so pretty!

Developer

Thank you! mb on making such an unclear tutorial

The stylized environments are excellent. I really want to know how you created this look—is it a filter, or is there way more to it? The art is a full score for me, but the tutorial is a little unclear. It also gets laggy sometimes in the browser, and some people might overlook a game with such a great art style if they get stuck while loading in.

Developer

Yeah, it's just a shader

I could not understand the gameplay with the tutorial info at the start, i fiddled around and made my own assumption when i cut some lines but level 2 i was stuck on how i did level 1 xD. But I get the idea and can give a rating about it.

Check out ours: /jam/brackeys-16/rate/4948895

i mean there are quite a few features that are the actual juice (past level 5), but i will for sure check out your game

Really cool concept and great execution of the mechanics. Was a bit tricky to figure out, a simpler first level would have helped. But once you get going its really fun. Really liked the visuals, everything fit great together.

Great visuals and audio. The gameplay is confusing, but it felt very rewarding when I figured out how it works. I could only get to level 11, I'd love to download and resume from there 

Developer

Developer

Awesome visuals. It lags in the browser, but it's worth the wait. Good luck, bro!

Developer

Thank you! I figured I'd try and cramp it within the browser since people usually dont go out of their way to download executables
