Gone For Good

Very tricky game! I included it in my compilation video series of all of the games from the GM48, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/hQAzb_hhkk0

This is great use of procedural generation. Game jams generally don't have much time for creating content, so proc-gen is a great alternative. I really liked the game. I wish that there was more to do. Great music as well!

Using game jam to test new stuff, that's the spirit ! o/

Cool game. The level generation seems to work quite well. The levels all feel different as well as fairly solvable (though the game once generated a level without a key). However, I think there could be more reason to explore the level - currently you can ignore most of it and head straight for the key. Some sort of goal or progression would also be a welcome addition.

Ok i had so much fun with this! I knew right away where you learned to do procedural levels haha! I've watched that video many times :D The controls were really great. Very smooth. Although at times it seemed like i could wall jump and then other times I couldn't. I really liked the music. Didn't feel repetitive. I'm not entirely sure how the theme fit into this. You have three health and infinite bullets.

But I really had a blast with this! On the way down to get the key the game was like an action platformer, but on the way up it turned into a puzzle game. Very nice job!

First: small bug. When you shoot before the level generation is over, the enemy is dead and alive (dead sprite but actually he still moves and attacks you) Also, clicking spawns player objects, I think you forgot to remove that :D

It's sweet that it has random level generation! One thing though, it takes a whiiiiile before it becomes playable. Maybe it should build itself quicker. It's sweet to see it being build but it takes a long moment. Or at least allow the player to skip somehow. You don't want to force a player to wait, especially for replayability when the player saw that already countless times.

I really really liked the idea and how you implemented it, this is one of the rare cases where randomly generated levels are actually necessary for a game, and you nailed all the different variables, making the games easy enough where you're not stressed and hard enough where you still have to think about what you're doing.

I'd have made them a little harder since you have infinite tries, but other than that and well, the bad art, this game is definitely a really cool and fun interpretation of the theme.

I enjoyed your game! The random level design worked well, Did you implement anything to ensure that each level is 100% solvable? I thought the music was cool and fun. I really wanted to be able to shoot up, and I'm not sure about how well it fit the theme.
