The Minimalist
The Minimalist (A Blackthornprod GameJam submission)
A game about a guy who is sad because he has too much stuff, that makes him slow and not able to jump. Help him to donate all his stuff.
Made by: Moritz Drose(13 years old).
Also this is my first time submitting a game to a game jam.
For now the game has just one level. I will change that hopefully until tomorrow.

ok, you could've made more levels on different stages not just inside the house, I got all of the upgrades then I just got bored
yea I didnt have time to do that, sry.
really good idea. the music is a bit ominous and the level gets repetitive. more levels in the future and maybe puzzles would be really great. keep it up
thx
A great idea in the right context, the game is good but for some reason in the browser i wasn't able to hear the music, also the level gets very repetitive very fast even with the new powerups, after the jam end please make more levels. With that said this is a solid entry in the BTP game jam, especially for a 13 year old, great job, I'm sure that you will make amazing things in the future.
thx for the feedback, after the game jam I'll take a short break from this game and then work on it till I think its done.
Liked it! although it took a few mins to figure out how to get to the next floor on the first level! Overall good game for your first jam! 4/5
Is there only like five levels which loop endlessly? After 10mins or so I stopped playing because it was just the same every time. Also the jump heigth and movement speed is directly dependant of the number on the upper left which makes it super buggy when you dont upgrade in the menu. Basically flying and moving super fast through the game is possible. Also you can throw boxes on the upper level which is out of screen. You can jump out of the menu by spamming jump. Those are all bugs...quite a few
Nevertheless, the gameplay is additive and if only there were more diverse levels and some polished controls it would be a great experience.
Overall I enjoyed my playthrough. Consider checking out my game too :)
yea, I only had time to make one level so I thought I let the boxes spawn randomly and with different worth.
Also consider playing my game "A gamedevelopers tale" :)
I'll make sure to do so
:)
thx
The update is great! Now I wish there was a timer each round so I could speedrun it. also, if you ever remove the glitch that lets you get boxes from above, you should know there is also an easy glitch to get boxes above the cieling
I now added the stopwatch
by playing for a while, you become so fast and powerful the following things happen: 1: you noclip through anything. 2: you can grab the box at the front of the house by spamming the up arrow.
I also think you need a font like This to make it fit well with the art. and it would be better if a pixel art smile replaced the emoji.
Thx for the feedback
another thing when you have insnaely high throwing power is that you can throw boxes through walls all the time. which is a horrible softlock when you get super high levels since you cant retrieve it. also you can run through boxes when urs speed is high. I assume that these are caused because its a frame-check for collisions. good game though!
I threw a box through the right wall, because it went to fast for the trash can. so i went through it also, and I think its just a bottomless pit
yea, I fixed some bugs now, I'll upload the new version right now .
OOh!
?
im excited. btw f11 didnt work, but Ctrl - did
sadly, the browser version was zoomed in on the middle of the screen, so i couldnt play
Press F11, I'll try to make a downloadable version aswell
thanks!
I just played, and it was good!

this is extremaly buggy
I don‘t think it is. How is that comment supposed to help improve anything?
fix the buggs?
Which bugs ?
jumping on walls, throwing/picking up blocks through walls and more
Jumping on walls is called "wall jumping" and if you read the tutorial you can read that picking blocks up through walls is an "intentional feature".
I like it the movement is kinda weird I also found a way to jump as many times as i wanted to on first try so theres that but I found myself playing for 20 minutes so very addicting lol 8/10
Thx, but could you explain how the jump bug happened and what felt weird about the movement ?
Then I could fix it.
Idk how to explain it really I just jumped somewhere i dont remember where but it made me have unlimited jumps sorry this doesn't really help but thats the best i can explain it
No problem.
