This is definitely a gamers game, fun little platformer with good commentary
The janky platforming was frustrating but wrapped around to being kind of funny combined with the narration. Fun entry, and great job making all of it yourself!. I think you could have engaged with the jam theme a bit more though.
This game's really charming, and the the fact that you made the music yourself is really impressive. Although I'm not sure how strange the inside of a computer is. With a bit more polish this could be a really cool game. Keep it up, I think this game has a lot of potential!
rated and by the way the games amaizing
Really cool idea! I really like the commentator, it really adds up to the gameplay!
A touch too glitchy I would say, but a good go at it never the less..
This was hilarious. "Don't do it NOOooooo...."
The narrative was definitely the driving force here. I'm a sucker for games that mess with the player and kind of break out of the normal boundaries as Portal does, and this had that same playful energy.
The platforming itself is simple but has a lot of heart. I like that the down key doubles as both a fast fall and a ground point. And trying to time the dash just right definitely led to some tense moments. For a jam timeline, it worked well. If you ever revisit, tightening up a few movement bits could make it shine even more.
All in all, really fun concept and a lot of personality. Also, I really did think there was going to be a goal post there. I felt incomplete that there wasn't lol.
Something I love: I love the commentary and the idea that the narrator is out to secretly get me lol
Things that frustrated me: I think the score background bar is a tad too big, it was hard to see where I was trying to jump with it in the way
Bugs I found:
1. I get caught on walls when I jump and walk at the same time
2. I walked up to the button and before I could jump on it the audio for the next dialogue after started playing at the same time
Overall: I really liked it! I think you have a great idea right here! Keep up the great work!
interesting game, i kept getting stuck on things but other than that nice job :D
Congratulations on the game. It's very funny. I enjoyed the narration of the "AI" being contradicted throughout the game. Good job!
The voice over was fun, This was a fun game
The voice over was really funny and i had a good time playing, but i think you could decrease the floatyness to make the controls better. #justiceforPaul
Fun game- The controls were a bit floaty and difficult, but the checkpoint system made it acceptable to fail.
Eventually I did get to a point where I was losing too much progress when I fell, and it started channeling rage game energy so I called it there.
Clever little experience. There's totally a market for games that embody the spirit you're going for here
What is this I wanna be the boshy difficulty level style! Gaaaaaah, some jumps were hard as heck and I wish the jump was on Space and dash on Shift or something. But good job either way >:) The narration was cool :D
love the narration:D man was it hard, but i loved it. great job!
This was such a cute game! The narration for the AI cracked me up. I struggled a little with dashing and jumping but once I got the hang of that it was a lot of fun. You did great!!
this was a riot, the voice acting was such a fun addition! the physics was pretty wonky but honestly it added to the charm! I had a ton of fun playing, great work!
Haha great narration! The graphics on this game are misleading because you made a deviously hard and engaging platformer.
Totally normal comment here. Nothing to see. Definitely finished the game and did not cry at all. Had a totally normal experience. (Great job!!)
I really liked the "meta" style narration! You did a really good job even on your own!
