Sunset lullaby
Made for Trijam #279 - Theme: Sunset
Dev time : around 10 hours :P
How to play:
- Keyboard controls: move with Arrows, jump with Space (press longer for higher jumps)
- Collect the missing music scores (there are 4 total, some are hiding above platforms so don't forget to jump ;) )
- Play the 12 music notes in the right order to put the sun to sleep (to play a note, press the corresponding keyboard key)
- That's all!
EDIT after the jam:
- Climbing Skill: no more softlock, you can now climb the big rock
- Friend with birds: the birds miss you and they restart now
- Keyboard controls: use of latin keys by name instead of physical keys
- Visuals: use of the nearest filter on the textures for bigger resolutions

Overall it feels great! It sort of turned into a rage game halfway through at the big rock though because I didn't realize that you jumped higher the longer you pressed space lol(I'm not a gamer, I forgot that was a thing). I was going to say the jump felt a little inconsistent until I figured that out. I eventually figured it out and finished the game though. Putting that in the controls would be helpful. Very nice game though!
Oh my! It must have been so frustrating haha xD I don't play a lot of games myself, I spent so much time on the character controls script adding all the features I thought "gamers" would need haha! I'll definitely add the jump controls in the description somewhere for people like us :P Thanks a lot for playing and for your comment!
The idea is so beautiful, very good game!
Thank you! :)
The mood is very cool, and the idea of a lullaby for the sun is very good too.
And bravo for this very relaxing music!
As for the keys, on an AZERTY keyboard I have no worries ;)
Thank you very much! And yes, I made sure not to use keys that would be different on AZERTY/QWERTY but I forgot about other keyboards ^^'
The art and sound design is all so beautiful! The birds delighted me. A fun and concise game, thanks for sharing :)
(Minor input issue for dvorak keyboard users: the letters input according to the physical keyboard layout as if it were qwerty. I figured it out pretty quick though so it didn't affect my enjoyment.)
Thank you for the feedback! And sorry about the keyboard inputs, I forgot about keyboards configuration ^^' I'm glad you enjoyed the game despite it :)
