A little update post jam : less screenshake, a few things here and there... and a hard mode if you beat the game under 10 minutes. 

"Chagrin d'amour" is a game made with Pico 8, it's a very tiny small platform game that can be completed in a few minutes. There are currently 49 levels. In each one, you need to collect all the hearts to move on to the next level before time runs out. Watch out for the ghosts, they're super annoying. 

"Chagrin d'amour"  was made as part of the Low Rez Jam 2025, I hope you like it.

I'm making a post-jam version following the players' feedback during the lowrez and I'll publish it on lexaloffle... (almost a hard mode).I'm just waiting for the end of the jam to post it (I think tomorrow or the day after). In any case, thank you for your compliments, it's so kind.

wow Thanks! its amazing how people make such nice games during jams and you will be improving it! yay!

Overall the game idea is funny and the mechanics themself are interesting and lead to cool routing puzzles. My problem here is the excessive use of screenshaking which made me motion sick, and the fact that the “flying” mechanic gives off exactly the same color of a puff to not see if you missed a heart or not. Dithering them, or just using the darker gray could be a nice solution for that.

Graphically and sound wise everything else is solid here, so well done!
