Feedback
Summary
Morphy is praised for its neat concept and good interpretation of the jam theme, with well-introduced mechanics and appealing visuals. However, players found the game somewhat too hard due to a strict timer that acts as a death state, causing frustration and repeated restarts. The lack of sound and limited puzzle variety were also noted as detracting factors. Overall, it is considered a fun but somewhat minimal experience that could benefit from balancing and additional content.

PatronThis has good interpretation of the theme, buut the time punished too hard when you didn't make it on time, had to restart all the levels just because I couldn't get that bounce :( Also it was hard to bounce in right time, hard couple of reruns because of that. Lack of sounds of course dimishes points from the overall score. It was good game otherwise, well done :)

I really like the look of this game, I just wish there were some more puzzles! The timer is a little short on the level where the enemy in the middle walks back and forth, if they player misses, then it is pretty hard to recover.

Thanks for the compliment, i'll pass that one to my brother (the artist & designer). I agree the timer in most levels could have been adjusted a bit. It was late and didn't have too much time left to properly playtest.

So, there is a death state. It happens when you run out of time. Also I think that it's a tad too hard; it would be easier if time replenished when you shot an enemy.

Understandable yeah, i noticed too that it was a bit hard in the time given. Unfortunately i didn't have enough time to playtest enough.
