I also had some issues as I manage to put a box behind a wall. I could not finish the game as I could not get it back.\nIt is hard to get a 3D game in 72 hours so I can only congratulate you for your work !","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"AngelKyriako","author_uid":"1055959","time":"2017-12-05T23:55:38Z","epoch":1512518138,"modified":1512518138,"text":"Thank you Gozz.

It's impressive though - it looks reall good, the lighting is impressive for a Game Jam game, good job!\n\nThe level design is poor I found ---> right from the start you don't really have a choice, you're blocked in the game until you eat not 1 piece of cake, but 3 pieces of cake.\nSo... what is the point of having singular pieces of cake if you need 3 right from the start?\nAlso, once you've eaten a piece of cake, you can't digest it or puke it, that I find odd.\n\nThen I find the game a bit sluggish with the 3 pieces of cake that were eaten ---> it just makes the game more slow and less interesting.\nIn a way, that makes you respond to the theme, I guess ---> except that you don't have a choice! You're blocked in the game until you eat 3 pieces of cake, which makes the game more slow and less interesting!\n\nIt's a bit of a shame.\n\nAll in all ---> good game, focus more on Game Design next time.\nTake care and congratulations on finishing that game on time, good job :D","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"joltjab","author_uid":"1037976","time":"2017-12-07T01:32:25Z","epoch":1512610345,"modified":1512610403,"text":"It was very fun.

Liked the concept and what you've done with that. The sound of walking while being big is so creepy hahaha\n\nI liked that you started to make some more crazy navigation at the end. Be carefull with the backtracking in this situation, because if players fall, they have so much walking to come back where they failed. Perhaps you could have added a checkpoint after the situation in which you have to jump over two cakes, and jump to take the third. I miss-clicked on R several times after that, and I had to restart this challenge several times.\n\nAlso I think you could have made more crazy navigation in LD with verticality!\n\nThat said, it was really nice, you did it!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"RIBOUT Horace","author_uid":"1041550","time":"2017-12-17T23:57:30Z","epoch":1513555050,"modified":1513555050,"text":"Not bad.

I haven not seen that \"E\" - is an action key anywhere. Kind of explanation should be placed near the first table (in tunnel, on the side where you will interact with it).\n2. It is pretty ucomfortable to interact with tables. Sometimes you simply can not drop them.\n3. Also are here any argumentation behind the table visualization? Why it's not boxes? It's uncomfortable to place table legs on the buttons. It will be more clear if you would use boxes. Box will better visually deliver mechanic of interaction with this object.\n4. Final part really lacks a savepoint. When you ate a very uncomfortable placed 4 pieces of the cake and passed the door.\n\nBut anyway it is a great entry!
