Foreword

so, this game has become a success.

it has a total of 20k+ browser plays, and has been featured in itch.io's 'New & Popular' rankings.

i thank all players very much, for making my dream of being a professional game developer come true.

Development

any further updates on Jimi come from the design document i've written for a 3-5 hour experience.

the idea is that there's two factions, cats (who play typing games with the keyboard) and mice (who play reaction games with the mouse).

they get into a conflict and Jimi acts as the catalyst for resolving that conflict.

more on that later, i have to restrain myself from spoiling everything!

Next update when??

once i have gathered enough playtester data for this version.

known issues in the current version that will get fixed in the next version:

• the cat dialogue shouldn't have Z to accept, it breaks the game's keyboard usage convention.
• there is a path to the void outside of the game. (if you reach that part, consider yourself having won the game, even though the credits sequence doesn't play.)

what more i need from playtesters:

• are the precision platforming quests a welcome addition, or do they corrode the concept of the game?
• what sort of time does it take for you to beat the game?
• if you haven't beaten the game, what was the obstacle where you got stuck?

i look forward to your comments!
