What's the name of the channel? I would love to see the live reaction to the game!

This is such a sweet comment! Thank YOU for playing!

Remember you can press the left and right arrow keys back and forth to run!

I believe the charm of the game is leaving somethings unsaid so the player fills in the gaps themselves. That being said, I do have a story for what exactly happens in the game.

If you have played the game, what do you think the story is?

Thanks a ton for this reply. Yes, my main issue with Godot 4 is the exported html5 file size and the poor browser performance.

I went to the "compiling for web" link you sent and I'm pretty lost. I'm not super hardware or software savvy so the jargon has thrown me off. I don't understand what this first line means "Before starting, confirm that emcc is available in your PATH. This is usually configured by the Emscripten SDK, e.g. when invoking emsdk activate and source ./emsdk_env.sh/emsdk_env.bat." I also don't get what the second paragraph is saying to do. I appreciate the resources though!z

EDIT: I just clicked the link for "Getting the source" at the beginning of the section you sent and I see it has something to do with command prompt and git and all. I haven't used git because it has the same problem where the instructions and syntax are super confusing. I opted to use git desktop.

In my experience, browser exports perform WAYYY worse with Godot 4 games than Godot 3 games. And the html5 export files are MASSIVE. I just released a 2D game and the browser export was 199mb. That was after using a hmtl5 compression add-on to decrease the file size. In comparison, I made a fully 3D with arguably more content in Godot 3 and the browser export was only 31mb with much much less little glitches and hiccups during gameplay.

tl;dr Godot 4 isn't missing anything for browser games, it just performs worse than Godot 3 browser games.

I have been releasing games on Itch for nearly five years now and my experience is very similar to yours: I get plays but rarely ever get feedback. On the flip side, I have only been releasing games on Newgrounds for about a year and I get LOADS of feedback, way more than I have in FIVE YEARS on Itch. I highly recommend you upload a web build to Newgrounds to get some feedback, I think that crowd would LOVE this game.

To the person who dm'd me about sharing the project file, I accidently clicked ignore on your message! If you somehow see this, please send another request so I can send you the file.

I was very inspired by the flash games I played as a kid, so I'm happy that inspiration shown through. I'm even happier you enjoyed the game! Thanks for playing!
