nice game.... finished in 52 cycle...
too many circling move because i don't know the usage of the item.... but very interesting...
51 cycyles, 3 treasures. Good game! Add some audio so I can rate it high :)
I think the game would be better without respawning every 10 seconds. Bu t the game is still great.
If you didn't respawn every 10 seconds, there would be no challenge! The entire point of the 10 seconds is to make you think what path you're going to take, you know? ;)
Genial idea about how to use the theme to still have a big map to explore in a 10 sec range. And the various unlocks are nicely done.
The graphics are lovely, but why so small? I zoomed and big pixels are good with such pretty sprites.
Thanks all!
@Alink the small sprites are artist's choice - he wants to make the game resemble a handheld screen.
I like the graphics a lot. The controls were a bit slow to respond.
Nicely done.This boy won in 59 cycles and 4 treasures. I kept flinging myself onto the spikes for no good reason. Tiny sprites!
Good stuff! The art, story, mechanic all mesh, keep me curious and engaged.
Very fun game. I like the idea of a previous (limited) run influencing the next run. The art was a big plus, too. :)
UPDATE: ADDED SIMPLE SOUND
Really glad you all enjoyed it, everyone!
It's really small, can't really see what's going on, is there anyway to maximize it?
I also got out in 59 cycles and 4 treasures. Great game, great concept, great level progression. It was also interesting that leveling up simply was a matter of encountering ghosts rather than fighting them - that simplified the gameplay a lot.
Awesomely polished game! Cool how many items and gameplay features you managed to finish. Also the level design is awesome! Everything fits perfectly.
wowww this is definitely one of my favourite LD games i've played!!! i got 48 cycles and 2 treasures but I would have tried to get all of them if I knew the yellow thing ended the game.
The game have great tone and feeling. The graphics are great! Also really nice fit with the theme!
These graphics are amazing, love the artwork. The concept is great, the "do something over and over in ten seconds" idea was one I wanted to see well done and you nailed it!
Finished it with 59 cycles! Really nice work! Proceeding and gaining abilities was interesting, you could have explained somewhere what the bravery does though, that took a moment to figure out. There should be some music!
This was greta, nice graphic, nice gameplay, too bad there's no music...
I'd say the screen size was a bit too small
Amazing job, the sprite art is really well done, the gameplay was interesting and had decent pacing and the controls worked really well. I really like with a little bit of music it could have really set a mood of some sort. Otherwise I feel like it was really good!
Best game that tried to do something like this that I've played this LD, very good job and the graphics were fantastic
Interesting solution, never played anything like this! Five balls!
Great idea! I really liked the gameplay and the graphics. The stepping sound got a little annoying though.
Great job. 53 and 4. Wish there was a full-screen or 2x scale option.
It is quite creative. I really was missing an rpg type game :)
Great work!
Nice graphics, some music would be great.. Overall good job :-)
Took me 60 cycles, but I finally got out with all the treasure. Great game!
Nice mood and addictive gameplay. I like the less burdensome direction you've taken when there are not "lives" for the player to worry about :) Maybe a pause/messege screen will be helpfull because I was not able to read what I've taken in the last second.
This game is like an interesting mix between Zelda and Metroid. I like the fact that you have to experiment for a while before you understand what you're meant to do. The 'bravery' bar was quite a good idea and I liked breaking down the walls with the gauntlet. Overall a great game and definitely a lot of fun

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Fun! Creative and original; it really made me think what I should do next, and there was no time to spare. Good job!
