How does the game fit the theme?
We merged the concept of luck with platforming for the ultimate biscuit-y reward.
You can gamble and get shorter levels to reach the biscuit quicker but it comes at a risk of either harder levels or demerits, while also potentially giving a big positive boost!

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
We did it all from scratch!

I liked the music and the game overall was really fun. I might have pushed my luck a lot, because it was quite challenging.

The artstyle is great and I enjoyed the game. Good work! :)

the narrative is cool and the digital art and music are very nice, the tiles are a bit repetitive but that’s alright, the game feels nice, overall goodjob!

I like that you got some narrative working at the beginning, but I got caught in a repeat loop of talking to the old man - I'd have just had that as an auto-play intro. I have to confess I found the game-play quite challenging, but that's probably because I'm of an older generation, and I didn't really get to the point of the slot machine. I loved the visuals and music tho. Good job on finishing your entry, and good luck with the jam

Love to see another slot machine in the game, eyyy! Amazing art, enjoyed the game!

I didn't know I could dash up at first, so I was stuck at the first part, after few rerolls and few reloads. But I totally sucked! But the effort to draw all the art is massive. Would've been even better with some in game feedback. Great job!

Great game! Love the visual art, music and the attention to detail with the portraits and mirror reflections. It's a bit on the hard side, by the endgame is hard not to roll the machine to be able to choose the upper path even with the risk. The story is a nice touch and keeps the player engaged to the end. It's amazing that you made this is just 7 days, really well done!

Developer

Thank you so much for taking the time to give us feedback! We're glad you enjoyed it!

That was HARD! But so well executed and fun, and the artwork is awesome. Super polished, hard to believe this was made in a week. Amazing job

Developer

Thank you so much!

A cute premise, but some refinements on the player controller and the addition of some sound effects could have really pushed it to the next tier.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback it is greatly appreciated!

Loved the art and the theme! I feel like the level design throws you into the deep end right away, rather than warming you up and teaching you the movement mechanics. Gambling your abilities is an interesting approach.  Great work! 

Developer

Thanks a lot!

I like the art a lot, and the mechanics work very well. Interesting concept I haven't seen before too. Pretty cool. I totally suck at this game, but that's okay. :) Good job.

 Holy crap you had a huge team on this. Congratulations on not killing each other after 3 days. :)

Developer

thank you for the feedback!!

Aw no worries about not being good at it!

Haha yeah our team's pretty chill so the murder level is relatively close to zero!

The art and concept is great! Although, I do think it's a bit on the too difficult side of things. Especially if you get unlucky (like me)  and get a whole lot of random dashes and jumps. I had to restart and try the game from the beginning due to that fact.

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback!

Great idea, I like the artstyle and general theme of being a rebellious kid! I think the level design is too difficult for the game. I love the concept of getting buffs and debuffs from a slot machine, and said buffs and debuffs are interesting, but occasionally I'd get something like random dashes and it would make my run borderline impossible.  Despite this, I had fun with it when these issues weren't in place.

Submitted(+1)

That was fun.  Art was on point.  The slot machine was fun until it took away all the things I needed to win. I personally could have used a little more coyote time, but that's me.  Great job!

Submitted(+1)

I love gambling. Also the art-style is pretty neat, the dash is particularly well made.

Submitted(+1)

Ah yes, teaching a child about gambling. Love the idea. 10/10  but the visuals sell it for me the most

Developer(+1)

Haha thank you for your feedback!

LOVED the art style! The dash feels super nice to use. Great job!

Developer
