How does the game fit the theme?
The player follows a journey attempted by countless past versions of the same character. Mysterious messages offer guidance after every defeat, but their source and intentions are unknown. To break the cycle, the player must question the path, the messages, and even the choices made by previous selves

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
3D Models: Blender / Sketchfab
Sound Effects: Pixabay
Unity Packages: Starter Assets, Cinemachine, TextMeshPro, AI Navigation

I saw that you only had 2 days and it is unfinished which does show, but I think you have a good idea starting out here.

The models are well made, and the post processing gives it a look more polished than perhaps it really is, so actually good job on the visuals. I think I experienced all that was there, finishing both paths and dying a few times in various ways? Those trees are terrifying. Experienced a fair few bugs, some I think could have even been alternate endings (like reaching the end without a sword and just being locked in there!) although maybe narratively those are already alternate endings, and that character is stuck in limbo forever lol.

I look forward to seeing what you can do with more time!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

I didn't have enough time to fully finish, so I appreciate your understanding

I'm glad you enjoyed the visuals and explored both paths, Your "limbo ending" interpretation is pretty fitting hahaha

I'll keep improving the game after the jam, Thanks again!

This is a good game. Great job! It looks really good too. :)

It took me a few tries but I managed to kill all the skeletons and finish the game.

And somehow I did this...

Everything is so beautiful, but I couldn't kill the first soldiers!  maybe they I'm a bad gamer!


I also rated your game; you can try mine!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Maybe the soldiers are a little too strong :)

I played and rated your game as well, and the graphics and interactions are perfect. Great work!

i like the color palette, it's captivating, and the blur effect is interesting

Developer

Thanks! I had fun with the post-processing, so I’m glad you liked it! :)

Looked pretty but the sound effects are really way to loud. I'm not sure I got it since I immediately unlocked "an ending that none of my other selfs"  had found. Maybe just needs a bit more explanation in the beginning. :)

Thanks for the feedback! The idea is that previous versions of the player attempted the same journey but never reached the core.
I agree that this needed a clearer introduction, I’ll also lower the SFX volume.
I only had two days to work on the prototype, so I really appreciate the helpful feedback and thanks for playing! :)
