I had the same issue being unable to open the final chest after killing the spider. But I enjoyed my time playing the game otherwise.
Momma Gob the goat. Love that this was made in GB Studio, it really made the game feel like a gameboy game! Grat job, I enjoyed the story and the color palette!
Much of the same as other folks here. I also had an issue with the chest at the end, I think if you pass by the spider without killing it first it just completely breaks your ability to open it. It was a bit confusing at times figuring out how to do things, like I spent a few minutes trying to figure out how I can use the torch before I recognized the unlit torch I could interact with. I got very confused in the riddle cave (Snake Eater reference is very cheeky, I like it) where I solved the riddle, but I didn't realize the chest down below so I wasn't sure what the result was. I think it was mostly a lack of contrast in the graphics that might have been the problem there. The pathing is a little bit awkward too, a lot of times I'd walk against the wall and be a bit confused that I couldn't walk along it.
Regardless, this has a nice progression for a complete game, and the narrative is very sweet. Great job!
Neat game, I liked the graphics and writing it was very charming. Agree with other commenters on the music, just too short of a loop for the main gameplay. I got stuck after killing the spider, but had fun with it. Nice job
Thanks for playing! I think once I can edit the game post-jam I will definitely need to tweak the music! After killing the Spider did it break or it was unclear where to go?
Just tried it again, this time I was able to open the chest and get the bombs! First time there was an issue interacting with the chest. Finished it and love the ending scene!! So charming :)
Sweet! I had a hard time with the obstables and pathing so I think it was an error on my end for sure! Thanks for playing!
The music is a bit annoying after 5 minutes :-) but the levels are nicely designed. the collisions and movements could be more precise. but well done!
The music was my biggest hurdle for sure! Next jam I hope to improve it!
The music is a bit bothersome and there seems to be some input lag, but apart from that, it's really good.
I hope to get better at music for future projects! It was what I struggled with the most! Any advice for making less bothersome beats? lol
To be honest, that was something that bothered me too btw. The music changing every time the scene shifts is a bit annoying, I think it would be great if you toned that down.
Fantastic game! The writing was well done, and the soundtrack was decent, I did find some of the levels confusing at first glance, but aside from that great job!
Thanks for playing and the compliment on the writing! What exactly did you think was confusing about the levels? Just so I can improve on future projects!
I found the level with the spider I believe it was? Rather confusing as the character just ran away, was not clear to me if I was supposed to get a weapon, or tool to slay it. Most likely my problem though.
Makes sense! Once I can adjust the file I will add a text saying something to help prompt the player!
I liked the vibe, but the music is repetitive, But I liked it,
The music was the hardest part for me for sure. Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you for the comment! I had a hard time with the music for sure.
