as a person who also participated in the jam but didnt submit anything (cuz im not very disciplined 😅), i couldnt see the entries lol. its cool to be able to see someones skill in a lil package like this.
i wouldv rated this pretty highly, honestly. increasingly varied gameplay by adding more mechanics and time and also have dialogue sections, lil bit of a story, the characters were dripping with personality
first level i got an A, second level i got a D cuz i got stuck in the wall or floor or idk what ud call it lol. somehow approached it from the left wall n then phased thru it idk
but the third level i got an S so i feel like i got my revenge lol .
the keys were a little awkward for me, but then again im not very experienced with PC games compared to console games lol, i just got a computer likee 9 months ago. more used to wasd
i wonder if instead of just a level select screen, maybe if it had more dialogue sections before it that maybe subtly tutorialized the upcoming mechanics like the cauldrons or the flyin books
also u can make it to where the timer is more motivated in the scope of the story, like somethin "new" happens in the story every time the timer runs out so the timer doesnt seem as arbitrary, yknow? i understand the game has more of an arcadey feel to it, im just the type of person to want to motivate everything lol
good job tho honestly truly truly honestly. coming from a person who also tried to make their first catformer 😅
Thank you so much for the feedback! :D I'll definitely get onto fixing that bug when the jam is finished lol, but I'm glad it didn't hamper your experience too much. Also, the little screenshot of your catformer is really cute! I wish you luck in developing it or any other project ! :)
Considering this is your "first time making a platformer", there is an insane display of talent on display here. From the artwork to the sound design to the juice and game-feel, it's a really great snippet of enjoyment.
I think you're aware perhaps, but the gameplay I think can get fairly stale fairly quickly - considering how much love and attention went in to every other aspect of the package, I think it's completely understandable. Maybe if the game wasn't time based but rather you have to chase the rat after you find him that might have been better?
Don't take this nit-picking as criticism, however - you've done an amazing job and should be proud of it :)
