Broken

Hello. Gave the game a good seeing to! It looks like there's already been some feedback so won't tread on old ground. I really like the background environments.

Just to help out a little I think I should mention:

• I couldn't hear sound so I wasn't sure whether I did something wrong or not.
• I think it might be a good idea to update the picture for the 'store front' (it's currently blank). Would have gave this a shot much sooner.

I had fun messing with the mechanics. Well done crossing the finish line, not everyone gets to do that.

For starters, I really enjoyed the graphics; they remind me of the prerendered 3D art style that was popular in 90's games like Donkey Kong Country or Myst. Aside from teleporting through the ground a time or two, I didn't have too much trouble with the engine. It did take me several attempts to reach the goal, but not because of glitches - the intentionally broken, collapsing floors repeatedly sent me to my doom until I memorized their locations haha. This is pretty impressive for having made it in less than 24 hours, and I'd like to have seen what you could have done with more time. You should be proud!

Wall jumping honestly seemed to work most of the time, I only had real trouble with it on the second section where you need to do it. Anyways, for what it is this seems to be a decent entry, the art is well done (albeit with some contrast issues, but I'm not so worried about that) and although buggy the gameplay was fun, especially for a platformer, which can tend to lean towards being rather dry.

I'm guessing the red rectangle was intended to be the goal as I reached that then went past it and fell into the abyss. I encountered all the bugs mentioned in the description, falling through the floor, wall jump working 50% of the time and even teleporting to a different spot at one point.

Even so I still enjoyed it. I actually tried seeing how fast I could get through it at one point but that was when I teleported to a different spot which was further back than I was. Guess you have some sort of unintentional anti-speedrunning system coded in haha :). It's a shame you only had less than 24 hours to work on it as I think it could've been something pretty cool with a bit more time. Even so it was great for the time you did have on it and I can see potential in it being something more if you decide to continue working on the game.

If you do decide to continue just a couple of things I would suggest. You mentioned it in the description but the art does make it hard to tell what is a platform and what isn't. I can't often tell when some things are in the background or not. It would also be nice to have some sort of indicator of the falling platforms. Whether it be they look slightly different visually or they shake when you step on them. In the end I just kept jumping all the way through since I would at least jump before the platform fell and had more time to react then. If you get more time to work on it, then it will be cool to see what this becomes. As it stands though, Good job in pulling this together in such a short amount of time.

The sprites were great - plenty of frustrating collision issues but it was fun! Appreciated things falling apart a bit (including my sanity just a tad)

Props for 3d models. Fun game. Higher contrast between gameplay layer and backgound layer would look better.

I think I made it to the end of the level. I hit the red box but nothing happened, then I think I fell off of the world. Apart from that though, a couple of things that could help navigate the world would be more contrast between the platforms and the background in certain places. The first wall that you come to kinda blends in with the background, whereas later platforms are on a darker background which makes it much easier to see what is platform and what is empty space. Also, it would be nice if the platforms that fall away would give you just a little more time and telegraph that they're going to fall (shake or something).

Very broken indeed haha, but I will say I did enjoy it almost more because it was broken and I wasn't gonna let the bugs stop me from winning. Completely unfair deaths all the way through, but I managed to get to the red square which I'm assuming is the goal. The gravity settings and platforming felt really good so thats probably what got me through. Good job guys :)
