Bus Bump by VirtualMan52

made by VirtualMan52 for Ludum Dare 47 (COMPO)

You wake up to go to school, just like every previous day. Unlike usually, you knock your head in the bus. You go about your day, the final day of the year, not thinking about it. You hop back into the bus, and knock your head again. When you wake up, you are back at the beginning of the day. Like in the movies, try and uncover the mystery of the school to break the loop in this puzzle game.

✔️ The animations were very nice, very smooth.
✔️ I really liked the story and dialogue boxes, it really added a lot.
➖ I feel the game told me a bit too much information, I would have liked to explore/loop back a few more times to try to solve the puzzle.

Rather impressed to think that this is a compo game. It's very well done and with some quality narrative length!

For such a short game it has some neat level of polish. Love just roaming around with the character because of the jumpy graphics. It's all simple yet elegant. A nice, humorous take on the groundhog day genre, if we can even call it a genre at this point.

So yeah, liked that it had some semblance of mystery and having to repeat the day to get better at doing the daily tasks. A bit direct and heavy on the exposition of the tasks, but I guess it was a time constraint. Still tho, very good entry! :whale:

This game looks really good! I really like the art style and animation. The exploration and Majoras Mask schedule mechanics seem really interesting, but the move speed is painfully slow! I suggest a run button or increase the player's move speed.
