Honestly, this game is broken, but delightfully so, I have had a lot of fun seeing what I could break (like, I've been able to collect the C without the magic orb). I have even able to softlock the game in just 17 seconds (which you can see in this image). Whatever you do, do not fix these glitches, or at least make them more difficult. Though, if there's one thing I would like to be fixed is the pearl usage, which is very broken (it's kind of cryptic how to use it). I can't wait to see the full game!.
i do agree that the glitches add a kind of flavor to the game. this is a pretty complex project under the hood so there's a lot that goes wrong with every new version.
If you're wondering, if you bump into a text box from below then move to it's side, you will clip either upwards or downwards, which causes a lot of unintended shortcuts
Bug: I got the QUEST working, and even got beyond the H door in the couch room, but I got softlocked by moving to the left at the drop. After quitting & re-entering, I had lost the orb, lost my Q, and now can't reactivate the cat to get aforementioned orb.
I know, but the orb is gone, so I can't press enter to open the orb. I tried to replicate the circumstances and it happened again! If you quit after getting the QUEST orb, and then press continue, the orb dissapears.
The game stops after getting the H, right? Have I missed something? The area through the door seems unfinished, and I fell all the way down to the bottom of the game world.
I wasableto gettheHusing the dashability and go thoughtheH door, butseems impossibleto clear. Also there's no other way toobtain Q orthesummoner orb when reloading the game. Is ita bug that needsto be fixed? Maybe in a futureupdate?
After some poking I managed to lock Jimi behind the "B B ICK" without a chance to get out of there.
Same thing here - if Jimi fallsunder the textbox - he will be trapped there forever. Well, at least this time it's dry and cozy life sentence.
Somehow I met 3D-guy here. But he's unsummonable here.
Here is the place for out-of-bounds walks. If I jump and press left - it's very easy to jump out of the box here (sorry, can't screenshot this) .
And here is the one fun place 1 screen left after entering this out-of-bounds.
After jumping over that screen Jimi can reach this place from the unexpected side.
Also, after finishing Quest 1 Jimy keeps his superpowers and can dash and double-jump in the real world. But he will lose his powers and summoner's orb after game reset, even if there was a save with the orb and superpowers. This happens even if the save was INSIDE THE QUEST, and this really softlocks the game.
And even worse - if I reset the game when catperson holds my QUEST - it will forget this, and it seems there is the one and only Q in whole game, so losing it softlocks the game too.
Is this a Metroidvania where at first you pick up more and more new letters and more places you can go, and the identifying letters themselves are like power-up items? I thought. But the puzzle-solving elements and conversations with the mysterious cat person reminded me of the depth of this game! In short, I enjoyed this piece very much! By the way, I couldn't solve the star part by myself because the position of the star is different on the keyboard in my country!
so I get to QUEST right? but then quests 1-3 are not available and when I hit 4 or 5 I come back and am able to do the dash and jump. am I supposed to be able to access quest 1??
i feel like rather than "STAR T" being a hint, it should be "80" then it goes to "EIGHTY" then it goes to "EIGHT TY" then it goes to "8T" and then of course, "UGH"
I think I just broke the whole game by messing up order of things and doing quests 1-3 works fine 4-5 I think breaks it couple other small bugs but the cause is probably the quests

yeah, it's an issue I experienced occasionally during playtests, but couldn't find the reason in the collision code yet
It seems that the H room is unfinished and there's no way to re-obtain Q or the orb after refreshing.
yep, the H room is just plain unfinished due to a mistake i made with the order of letters. i will also address respawning items in a future build.
I won
congrats! more content coming soon.
Im waitingg!!
stuck at quest orb if i press enter i cant seclect the options. i can change the highlighted one but not select them. im i dooing something wrong
No, I'm running into the same problem.
for some reason, the Z key is the "accept" key
yeah that's bad game design from me. will be changed in the next build
i'm in the "just one misstep" room, is this an intentional soft-lock of some kind because i can't figure out how to leave it.
you need to stand on top of the higher text-box and then jump into the ceiling
I stuck in AEPRSTU.
How to get other letters like H, Q and V?
Please help
Get the pearl and preass 8+t to flood the room with the Q
Thanks!
But how to get other letters?
I just explored map and I saw that got all that was in the game, lol
Found a way to fly now stuck
how get h?
You have to use the dash and dubble jump to get it
how do I use the pearl
Playing the newest version, and I can no longer make the *T room underwater. How do I get Q now?
I'm lost after getting AEPQRSTUV. Does anyone know how to get H or C or anything?
I'm stuck after getting AEPQRSTU! I don't know how to get any other letters after that.

You can actually press Enter on your keyboard (the key not the word)
I know, but the orb is gone, so I can't press enter to open the orb. I tried to replicate the circumstances and it happened again! If you quit after getting the QUEST orb, and then press continue, the orb dissapears.
I got the area to flood by pressing star and t.
How do you collect the H?
How do you use the star emblem?
star t
I didn't get it because I was playing the game on a laptop. Asterisk and "t" key?
8+t
It took me THIS long to realize it's on a keyboard, but I was playing the game on a laptop, which doesn't have the key.
Ah yes, I love exploiting game mechanics to make progress in an unfinished game
I shot my Q at the H trying to get it and bricked my game :( no way to finish it now
The game stops after getting the H, right? Have I missed something? The area through the door seems unfinished, and I fell all the way down to the bottom of the game world.
This game is SO good.
No
figured out flight by spamming double jump and dash like mad
also ended up alone in the void with dimi
I was able to get the H using the dash ability and go though the H door, but seems impossible to clear. Also there's no other way to obtain Q or the summoner orb when reloading the game. Is it a bug that needs to be fixed? Maybe in a future update?
there is collision glitch with the jimi can swim textbox by jumping under it (can't uplod the video beacause it's too heavy)
Same thing here - if Jimi fallsunder the textbox - he will be trapped there forever. Well, at least this time it's dry and cozy life sentence.

I got 2 Q befor getting the QUEST orb

You can take letters from the text "Jimi can not read" in the starting room by taking advantage of the text bouncing
I went to the top on the first level and broke out of the map somehow
yes, some out-of-bounds bugs have been noticed by playtesters. will investigate & fix.
what do I do when I get the pearl? I've been stuck for a while, Can someone help?
go back to the room where you rescued the 3d glasses guy and press 8 + t again
so I get to QUEST right? but then quests 1-3 are not available and when I hit 4 or 5 I come back and am able to do the dash and jump. am I supposed to be able to access quest 1??
also you can dash all the way to the end of the quest to the right of H
i feel like rather than "STAR T" being a hint, it should be "80" then it goes to "EIGHTY" then it goes to "EIGHT TY" then it goes to "8T" and then of course, "UGH"
this game might blow up I see it in my reccomended (how does YouTube know i played) (help)
the game is not so good, questionable hitboxes, lack of instructions, werid anticheat
the gray guy tells me to press star and t what do i do
press 8 and T
Thank you. Our keyboard layout has own key for asterisk, so the puzzle didn't make sense.
Press 8 and T
brother got tired of the fit and made new clothes
how did that happen?
I think I just broke the whole game by messing up order of things and doing quests
1-3 works fine 4-5 I think breaks it
couple other small bugs but the cause is probably the quests
