Dramatic intro is dramatic! Jokes aside, it's kind of rare to see voice acting in game-jams, really cool to see, I enjoyed it. Controls are flimsy but still an enjoyable experience. I think I roasted the king at the end, but the game froze up after that, but revenge was served. As they say: revenge is a dish best served hot... wait... Cool game!
Yes the effect is based on a bunch of nodes and shaders I wrote. It's a bit of a spaghetti mess right now because of how Godot handles multi-instancing and me not having enough time to figure out if there's a better way to create the effect (it probably exists). I was thinking of making a couple of videos on YT, a video about this effect could be one of them. Glad you enjoyed the game, thanks for playing!
There is one line in the very bottom of the screen, but it's not very visible and it blends with the background a bit. Also the ship booster dims when you're energy goes low, but it's not obvious enough either, understandably you missed them. I should fix the line color to be of a more vibrant color at least. I hope you enjoyed the experience anyway, thanks for playing!
I'm glad you enjoyed the game, thank you for playing! I tried your game too, very fun to play. I think I got a bug related to Firefox; from the second level onward the screen would go completely black, but, I managed to beat the second level staring at a black screen! :D
I'm writing here since I got a warning by itch. probably triggered by mistake after a login, as some automated anti-bot measure I presume.
Yep you're right, options were broken, I patched 'em up just half an hour ago. You're also right about the fuel line in the bottom blending up, the ship booster also dims based on the fuel/energy you have, but I don't think it's obvious enough. I'm really glad you enjoyed the game, it's my first time making a game tied to music/sound, it was kind of a mess. :)
Thank you for your review and for playing!
Love the art, the audio, the mechanics, very well polished, fun to play. It also hit close to home, my mum is a tailor (now retired), and I grew up in her sewing lab, cleaning and oiling my mum sewing machines since I was a "wee lad" of 6/7 years old. A suggestion about the controls, to emulate the gesture of sewing on a machine you could change the keys to something like F, and J, and when you keep them both pressed (using both hands) the movement is straight and when you lift F the movement goes to the left vice versa with J, somewhat of inverted controls. Just a weird idea to convey the gesture of using a sewing machine. Great game, one of my favourite in the jam.
I really enjoyed this platformer, I love platformers with a feel of "verticality". I got to the point of getting the wings but then I didn't know how to use them, I think the game might have glitched out (I pressed R to reset but maybe I made it worse?), but I really enjoyed the experience. I got a couple of "Keanu moments" (or woahs), but I will not say when to avoid spoilers. Nice the take on the loop mechanic of literally looping down-up. The characters are fun, and also the narrative ties to the theme of the jam. Pretty cool game!
