Hey! Not to be a nark or anything, but there's this game going around that stole Reversal Room's level design. It's called MakeNoSense (sic), and it was submitted for a game jam. Play some levels from MakeNoSense and Reversal Rooms side-to-side, and you'll see.
Hey, @TaelsDafoox, I worked on the game he is talking about, We were actually inspired by your work and tried to reshape it for the game jam theme. We had no intentions to rip you off. We participated for the fun and to gain experience as a beginner in game development. I personally didn't realize it would make people furious. Hope you understand.
This game is great! The clever names you used for the rooms, the gimmicks, they were all great! I'd like to see a sequel, but that probably won't happen. But still, great game!
Congrats on making top 20 in the GMTK Jam! I wanted to reach out to ask if anyone on the dev team would be interested in participating in an interview about your experience during the jam? Interviews are conducted over Discord and presented live on Twitch.
Sounds good! I typically run streams on Fridays between 3:30 PM - 5:30 PM EST, though I'll be taking a 1-week break because of the upcoming long weekend, so the next stream I am planing will be August 11th. Please let me know if you have any other questions about the interview / stream.
as I've said before in previous comments, I am completely out of level ideas, which is why I'm currently working on letting some kind of modding be possible 👍
cool, that was fun to watch! and kudos for being one of the few people who actually noticed that only one player has to get to the goal in the last levels...
because of how Construct 3 works, it's essentially web-only. I could upload a standalone version, but it's basically just a version of chrome that exclusively runs the game, and the file size is really big because of that. I might as well upload it, I guess.
I would have to license Construct 3 for that.... I'm mainly interested in developing an accurate speedrun timer for the game, and speedrunning the game. I don't want to bother you with more in case I don't end up with something of use.
oh I never actually saw this comment, oops. I could add a speedrun timer, and Construct 3 actually has a free version that would be more than enough to make mods for this game.
It feels like every 10 seconds there's a new idea, somebody stop this dev! This pacing is excellent, you just go from one short level to another, and each time you're delighted with a clever surprise. Really well done!

It's somewhere in room N. Try to find it!
The secret room is what got me giggling for a while.

that is actually very funny, thank you for informing me
Anyways, made a community post on the BYOG Jam page asking for it to be disqualified.
Which makes me wonder... did they rip off anyone else's games before?
EDIT: I got banned from commenting on that page.

By "inspired", did you mean "reskin the original game"?
You literally recreated the exact same levels and mechanics in the exact same order. That's not inspiration, that's theft.
I raged so hard at the spikes part omg 5/5

Sure! the "dev team" is most just me, but I'd be happy to do that and see if I can get the other people who contributed to the game too!

Nice puzzle platformer deconstruction
nice game had fun playing it but imo the spike hitboxes could be a litte smaller
There's this glitch on room O where if you jump into the top right of the door, room P starts sideways
I'll try to get a video of it.
that's not a glitch, that's just because you can rotate the room during the level intro :P
But gravity is also sideways
weird
gud gam
i rlly enjoyed tht alot :D
That was so fun!
make a extrended version
as I've said before in previous comments, I am completely out of level ideas, which is why I'm currently working on letting some kind of modding be possible 👍
:( well i hope modders will have some funny / fun ideas
great idea and even better execution!
hint for the secret room: remember how to enter the backrooms?
Pretty fun and simple game! i don't even think it took me 5 minutes, but i really wish it was longer.
I've included Reversal Rooms at 14:03 in a video covering the GMTK Game Jam.
cool, that was fun to watch! and kudos for being one of the few people who actually noticed that only one player has to get to the goal in the last levels...
Amazing. I need more.
Really good!!
This is an amazing little game!
I tried to leave the map on one level but found something else instead :)
that is the most adorable sprite in the whole jam :D amazing game! can't find the secret room sadly
is there a standalone executable build of the game?
because of how Construct 3 works, it's essentially web-only. I could upload a standalone version, but it's basically just a version of chrome that exclusively runs the game, and the file size is really big because of that. I might as well upload it, I guess.
I would appreciate that! How moddable would that version be?
not at all, though I could just release the source code or something if it's modding that you're interested in.
I would have to license Construct 3 for that....

god, the secret room was so hard to get to. I already knew where it was, but it took like 10+ tries to actually get to it

is there really a secret room ? 🙃🙃
yes I played through the game again after looking at this comment and found it
how do you get to the secret room

This was insanely fun :D
THIS GOT FEATURED IN THE VIDEO AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Congratulations!
Congrats! I really like the pacing of the game. I don't know why but this game feels so fast and that really improves the experience.
This was so fun to play through!! The secret room was also a nice treat to find! :D (Is that Jesse from Minecraft Story Mode as pikachu?)
