Great job! I'm also quite new to game development, I have been learning for about 10 months, and you did way better than I did! I'm impressed you got both gameplay and story in there. And alos that it seems like you were able to plan a project of a good size since it feels like a completed game. Well done!

How does your game fit the theme?
I made game about a mom and her baby trying to escape a dungeon filled with zombies. The mom has to carry her child throughout the dungeon in order to escape. However, she cannot attack or dash when she carries her baby. On the other hand, by hugging her child, she gets healed slowly from injuries.

Nice game.
1, The zombies don't have animations.
2, The images are blurry.
3, There should be more sounds and polish.
Besides these, nice game.
I would be very happy if you would play my game,

Heart-StringsVery nice story telling which included the tutorial seamlessly. Love the concept of healing the mother in the presence of the child, very lovely! :D
Nice game!
Ps. Soundtrack is a banger :DD

Man Across RiverSurprisingly good polish. Platforming felt good and the game mechanic using the mother and baby relationship was really clever. I think the zombies could do with some improvement however. They attack and move really fast sometimes and the hitbox is inconsistent. Pretty cool overall though.

The Wizard and The FireflyUnique concept. I liked the tutorial and how carrying the baby has both a negative and positive effect on the mother. Really cool game.

Soul BoundLove that you appreciated the concept! :)
I was initially thinking about having a generic hero/man to save the baby. But I guess having a mother protect her baby will be easier to establish a relationship with minimum dialogue, as well as have a deeper meaning. It also fits better with the theme Joined Together. Aside from being physically joined, the theme may also pertain to the mother and the baby's bond/relationship.
I didn't try to leave the baby alone in the dungeon....um...I was just clearing the way....all the way to the end ofc i was gonna get the baby...pls dont call the cops

SIMULTANEOUS@Ynovation its a good game, its just my suggestion but there is a delay in attack animation its feels a little unresponsive sometimes, but its a minor fix, overall good game.

Unlock WebVery cool - Easy to play and understand - Like all the text helping the player

TownsVilleCool concept. At first I was like, why do I have to hold the button to hold the baby....and then 🤯. I'm literally HOLDING the Baby!!! haha! One note, sometimes the Zombies would float in the air making it impossible to get by them w/o taking damage. Made it a bit hard to complete. Overall, Good job!
