I can say that the controls in the game are not very convenient. When I zoom in, I expect the scroll to be up, but you've done the opposite.
Still, given the timeframe, this is VERY impressive (and VERY VERY cute) - great job folks! :heart:
This is really well executed, and a very unique take on the Depths theme. Kudos!
The adorable character designs and delightful artstyle really help it stand out among the other jam entries, while the soft, cheerful music perfectly ties everything up.
I appreciate the novel approach to the "depth" theme through the implementation of actual, physical layers of screen depth. However, it does ultimately feel like a feature that the game could have easily done without and still not be impacted by its lack in any meaningful way, which is a bit of a shame.
Other than that, as a player, I also wish that the game was a little less streamlined, so that I could come to my own discoveries and conclusions, perhaps by being able to look for clues in multiple areas at once, without being limited to a single screen? Regardless, I still enjoyed my time with it. Fantastic work all four of you! <3
