OMG AMAZING! coincidentally, I'm making a more or less similar game for a 5 month jam (I've been doing it since June lmao) and this game inspires me even more to keep doing it!
Thanks! and oh? now i'm curious :p
would love to see if you post updates on it anywhere?
I will post on my itch.io! soon :P
Hey, saw your game on stream and wanted to say it's super cute! Here's the link if you missed it:
Thanks! I was there in the chat :p
Really happy he ended up playing it!! 😄
Thank you for sharing still
Really cool and nice game! Art is also awesome. Gameplay feels a bit buggy, maybe if the paper didn't have legs things would work better. And if there was a sign of where you can climb then it would be even better. Climbing the staircase didn't make sense to me, because there wasn't actually a wall.
Got stuck a couple of times (in the pipe, near the stairs) the idea is cool, the gameplay can be finicky at some points, nonetheless very cool concept!
I love the papery design in this game, the art is so polished! Also being able to fold your character to control your size is a unique way to do the theme. I felt like that feature made the puzzles interesting to play as you have to consider the size and dimensions of your character.
Really interesting concept! Played some similar games, but the paper folding was a unique twist. I also love the animations and the art style.
The game did feel a bit buggy at times, and I got stuck eventually on the roof top bc I did not know where to go next. Overall definitely enjoyed it and loved the concept!
Very good game! I love the Art and music aswell!
Neat idea for a game that fits the theme in a very nice way. Lovely music that is fits the game very well. I loved the little facial expressions, especially when you're trying to become smaller when you're already as small as you can get, so cute!
If the controls weren't so finicky I would have had a way better time, but unfortunately I found my self getting a bit frustrated at times, not being able to crawl up between the walls and vents etc. with more ease. Also things like not being able to enter the first, big door opening you encounter unless you're that specific size. I would assume that you could enter the opening when being the smallest size.
That being said, I think you did a great job with the storytelling, and the game had way more content than I expected. Big kudos to you for making all this happen in just four days! Seriously impressive.
Resizing the character seems to be quite a common theme for this jam, but having a sheet of paper that folds is a nice twist on it.
My main complaint is the collisions or something - when climbing up the pipe, I could not get out of it. Pressing space didn’t help, nor did making the character smaller. Don’t know if there is a correct way to do it.
Nice premise and visuals though, good job!
Thanks! and yea the way to get out of the pipe after climbing up was to unfold so your edges support you, normally you're not supposed to be able to jump but that's something that slipped past unfortunately
and thank you!
Such a nice game it is. Loved the challenges and the visuals. Well done! Keep it up.
Told me we can't get past the truck...
I beg to differ little paper dude xd
btw the game looked really nice, like a little big planet custom level.
I guess this is the power of unreal engine
xd
gone where no piece of paper has gone before!
Really creative take on the theme, and especially refreshing since I haven't seen anything like it! Real fun play :)
This was a very unique game. Music was good, concept was good. I did find a hilarious bug though. I was able to climb through the floor and fall out of the map haha. Also, my graphics card was screaming the whole time. 5/5
Enjoyed the story. Great idea for scaling. It worked really well. The environment was really interesting and fun to discover.
The controls/collisions were problematic. I got stuck a lot, where I had to wiggle free or restart the game.
Nice unique game.
The core mechanic of folding paper is so smart! Although some parts of the level weren't very clear and took me a while to figure out what to do.
Wow, the idea of transforming different sizes of paper is very innovative, and the paper like art style is amazing too! Now I stuck at the rooftop stage where there is a diagonal pipe at the background... never mind, I will try to play again! :D
Thank! glad you like it! :) took some sleepless nights but happy with the result!
(and for that level try pushing the long box :p)
This is one of the more unique concepts I've seen. Lots of games about resizing player characters, but I like the potential this one has due to the way resizing changes the shape of the character. The potential for puzzles in this I think is pretty high.
The controls are the only thing that leave a little to be desired. Moving from background to foreground can feel clunky.
Overall though, great job. You should feel good about this entry!
Thank! yea i wanted to try and take the classic idea and like add some extras to it, had a lot of other mechanic ideas that had to be scrapped in the end but would love to make a full version!
yea that's fair, there's definitely a decent amount of jank to it xd
and thanks! hoping i can get it featured in the video if i'm lucky :p
Nice to see another game made in Unreal! Really cute character, first time I got stuck in the gutter sadly but after that it worked great :)
Thanks! glad to see someone else in unreal, your game looks great from the screenshots, i'll make sure to give it a look!
This game is very unique compared to other games ive played this jam! The art and story was great for a game made in 96 hours, and it played really well : D
Excellent game. So far the best I've seen out of everything I've reviewed. Love the concept and it fits the theme perfectly!
Wow, that means a lot, thank you!! Really glad you liked it
