Really clever puzzle game, is the movement of the enemies random?

Thank you ! No, it is defined in each level map.

This is great. Love the art style. Simple but elegant!

Loved the art style, length and mechanics. Awesome work!

Awesome art, and a fun little memory-puzzle game! Would be kind of fun to try this on a level with 20 moves in it :P Also, this is really awesome stuff for a first game jam :)

A little short but nice. The game art is very pretty too. good job!

Love the art and puzzle mechanics. Some more levels would be great.

Pretty looking pixel style! Beaten all the levels from the first time except the last one, didn't realize there is just another heart)

Nice art style and good execution. Only critique would be maybe add to the enemy sprite a graphical indicator so we can tell exactly what direction they are facing :) Great work!

looking good man

i seriously enjoyed playin it 10/10 man

Nice puzzle game. Beautiful!

Really nice pixel art, animations and color palette :) ! The atmosphere is also very nice... I love how the screen is all tiny giving that claustrophobic feeling, as well as how the field of view of the player gets smaller and smaller ! There were no sounds though (is that just me ?)... All in all well done :) !

LOVE the game!, neat mechanic, remind me of super hot, love the gameboy green aesthetic, and also the pixel art helps the atmoster a lot !, honestly i dont get the "claustropphobic" aspect of it, while the area indeed getting smaller but in my gameplay its irrelevant, the "super-hot" like puzzle is brilliant tho

Straight forward mechanics and look, I like it. You really got me on the last level. :sweat_smile:

Loved the art. Simple and clever gameplay. The instant respawn thing is brilliant. The Last level though :p !!!

Love the art style!
I also like the mechanics like @ghen said, it reminds me too of superhot, and everything is really smooth.

A simple concept but the end result is really nice! Great little game.

Quick to pick-up and play, it has a lovely simplicity to it that all LD games should embrace! It's certainly something I myself struggle to pull off! You've done a great job for your first jam! Congratulations :grin:

Took me 7 mins to finished the game, great job man!! :)

Beautiful pixel art. The game fits the theme too. Good job!

Good artsyle and amazing idea! Had a fun time with it. Is there a way to predict the next move of the enemies?

clever little puzzle game.

Last level is cruel...

Loved it! Cute ittle puzzle game. Perhaps you could expand it and make it into a full game?

@noa-calice Didn't had time to make the sound, sadly...

@biodiesel Yes, each enemy has a specific pattern.

@nnnikki Yes, I'd like to.

I'd like to :

- add sfx (with a "buzzz" increasing when the noisy shadow shrinks)
- add explosion effects when a bomb hits the player
- add some monologues in each level to add real depth in the chlaustrophobic effect
- add much more levels

Really good idea for this little puzzle game. Like the character remind me a lot.

Short and sweet, the Game Boy graphics are *perfect* (I tried it myself, but I'm not really great at drawing, I need to train more). The pixel are is really cute! :blush:
Some sounds and music would really pull everything together!

As a puzzle game connoisseur i can safely infirm that this game was really good, the art was top notch and what can i say? This is just an overall great game.

As many others said, great art style o/
And I love this mix between puzzle and die and retry, very fun
GG o/

Nice game, enjoyed it very much. Keep it up!

Awesome puzzle/memory game, I enjoyed it a lot! Aesthetics of the game is just perfect fit. Great job, I'm looking forwad to your next game :)

Cute little game ! It would be cool if you could see what move the enemies would do next.

Art style, sweet little puzzle.

Love it! Often felt a bit like trial and error instead of puzzle solving though, but still the art is amazing, and the character reminds me of Vivi <3

Seriously great stuff, and doing it as a 1ma is just nuts.

Lovely, difficult enough to keep you playing.

Clever and well designed puzzles, well done!

Very clever little game!

The tight camera did make discovering and memorizing the enemy patterns better.

Even while it had a great mood, some music and sound effects would have really helped as well.

Major props for using your own engine as well..!!

Amazing game! and i hate you because the last level lol

Really cool entry! Great level design, very clever. Congratulations!

Great tutorial and all;
The only main problem (or counter-point to the popular opinion) I see is that it's more of a memory game vs puzzle game: there's no way to see how bombs will behave other than get killed and remembering their pattern. Essentially, we're punished for not knowing, rather than not thinking.

Great game! The graphics were really nice. I really liked it, thus it almost felt too short and left me hoping for more. I agree that it's more of a memory game, but that's totally fine by me! Awesome job :)

Good entry! I liked the graphics because of the gameboy palette and the subtle flicker animation on the light. The gameplay was solid if a bit random (playing didn't feel a lot like I was solving a puzzle as much as just figuring out the correct order of moves, but maybe that in itself was the puzzle lol). A bit of sound and atmosperic music would really complete the mood you were setting. Overall, good first entry and props on not using an engine.

Nice little game, but I was attracted only by graphic, sorry.

Easy to play with, nice 8-bit graphics, well done!

This is so good. Such an awesome concept.

Great little puzzle game.
The graphics remind me of a Game Boy game, which is really cool. Loved the artstyle itself, too.

The level design is clever and satisfying.
And that last level... Well played man, well played.

Some eery music like lavender town in pokemon red and blue would work, clever game bro

It was quite an experience! Though it lacks of sound, the game is really moody and has nice graphics with intuitive game play.

I loved it, neat little puzzle game. Not even needing any explanation, you get it very quickly.
I'd definitely play more levels of this game.

Only missing a few sounds and it would be great.

Nice work.

Great game, I love the art and overall style! I think the game might benefit from having an indication of where the enemies are going to move on their next turn, as it is currently difficult to tell. Something like a small X over a tile that an enemy will move onto the next turn would help make the puzzles rely less on trial and error.

Beautiful graphics, really gave me some early gameboy nostalgia. The game was fun to play, but it was rather easy to complete. My only complaint is that I wanted more, but I suppose that's not really a bad thing. A bit more polish in the sound/music department would have helped a lot, but otherwise a great game. Thank you for sharing it.

Yeah, I agree with the above that sound is really missing, but the game is really well made with some really tight level design. This can easily be expanded into a much more advanced game as well. Well done!

Awesome game, but you should make the screen size bigger.

You need to make this a commercial game and put it on console and steam. I really enjoyed this puzzle game. I love the movement mechanic, reminds me of Dragon's Lair! The only thing left to say is I want more levels :smile: oh and Congrats on completing your game!

Cool game dude, Realy like it! keep up the good work!

I liked the game, the concept is simple but is well done. I also liked the level design!

Really cool graphics. It would be nice if it was possible to see the movement patterns of the bombs, but I guess that would make the game too easy :). Good job!

i like this game. it looks very good, the concept is really innovative, and the game overall is really fun. at first, i was confused why i lost lifes, but you made the area in a way nobody will get stuck, since your only option is to go down, and in this first room you learn everything you have to know about the game. the only problem of this game is that every enemy looks the same, but moves in a differend pattern.if they looked a bit differend, this game would be even better. good work!

This really is nice and clever! Once I opened it, I thought that it was a GIF file, not a game. =) It looks polished and solid. Impressive that it's made in pure JS.

Great puzzle, nice idea for the theme, good job!

Really nice visual style! I loved the mechanics. You should definitely add some sounds and/or music. :mushroom:

Lovely Game. Few Levels but nicely laid out. You can add different type of enemies. Maybe switches and triggers. Falling tiles. Falling blocks. Traps(Enemies that mimic your move can be lured into said traps). Endless possibilities. I loved Lara Croft GO.

I liked it! Should add music, but the levels are cool. The last level was super tricky haha

nice Idea executed flawlessly with not enough levels but good graphics :D

Love the convinience of being able to play it right in the browser! perfect for your games small form factor. Good job with the game, overall i thought it was quite nice

Nice take on the theme! It was short but very enjoyable (I really liked that you had to take enemy paths into account while caring for your own limited life), with great visuals. Some sound would have been the icing on the cake. Congrats!

Great puzzle game, clean presentation. Largest flaw? game is too short.
Great work

Beautiful game in both art and mechanics. At first I wasn't sure if I enjoyed the trial by error method of determining enemy movements, but the game loop is so fast that its not frustrating at all. Very nice!

The incorporation of the theme was not great in my opinion. I mean, you achieved this by making it a small screen, but that is kind of a shallow artistic thing, I prefer the theme to be incorporated in game play. And you game play is more like 'running out of moves' kind of. With that out of the way, this game is actually awesome! Super fun to play with really neat art style. It is very unfortunate that you couldn't make more levels, I would definitely be interested in playing an extended version.

I actually had fun playing your game, the concept is interseting and be better with more player and system mechanics. Great entry

Good job, I wish there was a little more, I was really enjoying it. Graphics are super great, and it's really impressive that you didn't build this on top of any pre-made platform.

Cute little game!
Liked the graphics, and the levels were good.
It wans't so clear to recognaized the path of the bombs, and the puzzles felt a bit too linar for me.
Awesome job!

Brilliant job! Loved it. Just add music and FX for that extra polish. maybe some more levels as well. Bravo :)

Great graphics! Fun puzzles! I really enjoyed playing this and I hope that you'll continue to expand on it. Very nicely done. Congrats on finishing!

Love the art style. nice job !!

Very love the art style. Didn't hear any sound effects however? Are there supposed to be? Either way, very liked the game. Nice little puzzle game. Especially liked that last level :P

(Psst! Btw if you ever want some music made for your game I'd be interested!)

Art is great, though I see you aren't being rated on graphics, so did you not make the graphics yourself? If not you should really put some credits in the description for who made the art. I think a little bit of music here would have gone a long way, even if just some ambient sounds (like a fire crackling or something). I would have really liked some sort of indicator on the bombs as to which way they were going to move, or you could put some lines on the ground showing their path. As is the levels turned out to be a bit more trial and error than I normally like for a puzzle game. That is just nitpicking though. Solid entry.

Have fun out there!

That's a cool game but it seems you disabled the "graphics" category for voting, too bad, because it greatly participate to make the mood of the game (which is very well).

@phlip45 Nope, I did all by myself.

@phlip45 @sebbernery The goal of this first jam was more a challenge to myself and the framework I am developing rather than win the competition. I picked few old spritesheets of mine, created new ones for the jam. To respect the rules, I didn't wanted to be rated on my graphics. :)

Great little logic game, great art style and effects, i enjoyed playing it a lot.
Would be great to see more levels for it!

Lovely minimalist game. Nice design too. Sad there is no music. The hero looks like vivi from FF9, love that character :)
well done !

Pretty nice and straightforward game with great pixel art!

Pulled a fast one on us with that last level.

nice and clean! It makes me want to play more levels :3

Simple and nice. Last level was such a troll haha. It seems you've disabled the graphics rating? I really liked the simple color palette!

Nice game besides being very short and you can't predict some enemy behaviours without failing. Your Game Boy art is very good!

I was left feeling that it was too short. That is no bad thing. It totally has legs for being further developed. Well done. Feel free to try mine out. https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/42/clapbang

Nice puzzle game. The art is simple and stylish. The mechanic are very intuitive, didn't need a tutorial or anything. It's a fun little game. Good job!

Nice art, just keep working on levels and go mobile.

Just played your game live on twitch - Nice work! And keep up your framework developemnt! cool to see such a thing in plain JS

Really cool concept! And yeah, you got me on the last one! :D (took me a while). Great job. Fantastic art.

Good game, the mechanic is nice and the way the levels teach you the mechanic is so nice, but I am missing some sound and I dont get the running out of space. But very well made game overall.

Interesting mechanic, great art style and pretty good execution overall. Wish there was sound and perhaps some kind of indication where the bombs are going. Now it is kind of a trial and error game rather that a puzzle. But for the first game jam game, this is outstanding! Congratulations!

I agree I am not feeling running out of space even with the game supposed to invoke claustrophobia, I think sound would add a lot. Felt a lot like pokemon for the art style. It was overall fun, but I am a big component of sound adding atmosphere, which this game was definitely trying to invoke and I bet it was just a time thing. Like for me adding animation was difficult.

a lovely little puzzle game!

Clever idea to combine space and life :)
Graphics are simple but nice, the game is a little short IMO.

For the first jam it's impressive, and +1 for doing it with your own framework :o

btw, maybe you could checkout our game, not our framwork but work in a browser too ahah

Awesome game! I beat the game, it's short and sweet, and not too hard. For a post jam version, I'd love to hear some music. Also, I think it would be nice if the mechanics of the bombs were more predictable, right now it feels like I randomly move until I figure it out.
