I feel like holding the jump button should make you automatically start hovering at the peak of your jump. That minor nitpick aside, very fun game!

I was surprised by how difficult Level 24 was until I realized how you were supposed to use the hover restore. Then I beat the level without it anyway, just for the challenge. :)

I really enjoyed this, but could you add in coyote time? I died a bunch because I didn't hit the jump button quite soon enough, which was more frustrating than fair.

Also, you used the same symbol for L and I, had no clear letter separators (deciphering 'ARMAGED', specifically 'RM', was very tricky), and cut off words at the end of lines. Credit where it's due, you did put spaces between words, but I feel like transcribing those would have made it lose its feel.

Deciphering those pages at the end was so hard. I'm glad I did, though...

I'm sure you've been told this a thousand times already, but this game is good and thank you for making it! Being able to turn the rest of 「THE WORLD」on and off is always fun. I kinda want to see what it looks like from an outside perspective, like the player shooting a bullet and then suddenly appearing on top of it, but I can't think if an elegant way to do that. This game is simply already to lovely to reduce it by adding more.

Highscore: 456. I managed to get the ball & paddles in what seemed to be a closed loop, until it wasn't. Not entirely sure if the loss was because the loop wasn't quite perfect, or the ball just clipped through the paddles. Either way, definitely a cute little game.

looking forward to whatever else you create! I really like your artstyle, and there are never enough GL stories out there. thank you for making these!

Ahh this was cute and fun and gay!!! I don't know much about otome games but between this and My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! I've come to appreciate them indirectly :3

This is really fun, but the pressure needs to be toned down a little. The Understanding -> Execution barrier is high enough to stress me, and the fact that you don't always see the whole puzzle can be frustrating. I would suggest putting the beat on hold when you're on a yellow circle, and having a "zen" option where you don't need to worry about timing (have a "wait" button to skip a beat that hasn't been chosen yet). But that's just my perspective. Regardless, hoping for more!

Oh, that was cute and fun! The rules were simple enough, and the space was constrained enough that exploring it was reasonable. Thank you!

Definitely late to the party, but this game has crashed twice on me (on Linux -- thanks for supporting that, by the way). Bug report is

Both times this happened, I had a lot of vamp minions. Dunno if that's relevant.

Also, the file "Dusted.wav" is referred to in the code as "dusted.wav" (a different bug that I "fixed" by renaming the file).

That aside, this is certainly a fun game! I've seen the premise before, and this is a very nice realization of it.

The directory contains the "WAKER - Linux 0.6.x86" executable, the "WAKER - Linux 0.6_Data" folder, and an additional "__MACOSX" folder that probably isn't supposed to be there (but also probably isn't breaking anything by itself).

Running Linux, when I launch the game the screen is just black (though audio & input works - just not visual output). When I launch from the terminal, I get the error message in the title.

this is a good comic

I want to say more, but that pretty much covers the important stuff, I think

thank you for making this

Thanks! I tried this and it worked. But could you mention the required libraries in the readme? It gave me the impression that I shouldn't have needed to install any libraries (which was, as it turns out, incorrect).

There wasn't one of these threads already, and I have a bug, so here we go.

On Linux, when launching the game from terminal, I get the error message "./rwia: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2_image-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". Is this something that I'm supposed to have installed that I don't, or something that needs to be fixed?

Level Avalanche is still built incorrectly. It has "WALL IS STOP", but no actual wall tiles. It has cliff tiles and "CLIFF IS NOT FALL" though, so that's probably what you meant.

Edit: Stardrop and Meteor Strike can be cheesed with "BELT IS S T A R IS FLAG". You can finish "S T A R" right next to a belt, and there's two turns before "FLAG IS WIN" is disrupted, exactly enough for belt to to star (and then flag).

So excited that part 5 came out! But I'm on Linux now, and can't play it. Is there any chance of getting a port?

I managed to get one! The trick is to break the stack before the skull block arrives. Sadly, the sixth box gives 2500 points again, like the fifth box, so there's not much gained from doing this, and the skull block crushes you immediately afterwards, so I wouldn't recommend doing this.

Update: I have managed to achieve a full stack of skulls with a score of 0 points! It wasn't that hard, but was fun to try anyway.

I followed you for this game! It is clever, fast, and fun. Thanks for making it!
