Art is really good, I especially liked the character sprites! Audio was nice, and I enjoyed playing it! Great job, especially for a team of such size :D

How does the game fit the theme?
Originally there was supposed to be a theme of trust no one through a shady game master witch that gives you wrong advice/misleads but we didn't get to add it in time. I guess trust no one to finish the game not even the game developer!
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All assets and code were made form scratch
How many people worked on the game?11

The art is really good, and I can see the beginnings of a game that could be very good, but for all the people involved in this project this entry leaves a lot to be desired.
The controls are awkward and don’t feel responsive, NPCs get stuck at the edge of platforms, fundamental things like dying in spikes or lava are not implemented, etc.
Running a team of any size (but especially this large) requires a strong emphasis on organization and project management and to me it looks like this one was lacking project management.
Not finishing a project sucks. Try a smaller team with more emphasis on scope & project management next jam. Hopefully you still had fun and learned a lot!
thank you for playing the game!
to adress the team size part it actually was not a team of 11 people working at once, we encountered a lot of issues during that week like some members having little time to work and our main programmer having to quit, I had to bring a bunch of extra people midway to fill in positions but it still didn't pan out. There was a structure and a well laid out plan but a lot of external factors made it very hard to finish anything
the pixel art on this is stunning, it's a shame you guys couldn't finish!! i'll still leave a few thoughts as it's a shame it wasn't complete </3
the art and little animations are so cute- i love the character designs! i don't think the controls feel very intuitive though, but that may be due to the character feeling quite floaty and slippery to control! a little health bar for the MC would be nice too :D
overall very solid premise!
The visuals are REALLY nice, love the look of the game, its a shame its unfinished as I think it has alot of potential
Movement felt very smooth, my only issue was I kept getting stuck in the lava pit on the second level and the character slid around a bit too much for my liking
