I quite like this idea! Though it's a bit frustrating to control, finding the perfect 'strat' pays off and it's pretty satisfying. If further developed, it could make a nice rage game... 😳

It's really fun, and a creative use of the theme. I do always feel like I'm fighting the rotation, which sometimes just sends me the opposite way even though I'm sure I got it right. It makes chaining consecutive jumps for the higher obstacles a little difficult, and I think I cheesed a few levels by wall-jumping. Other than that, it's a fun time. Physics always makes any game 10x better!

This game speaks for itself, it's great! I really loved the bouncing sound effect, music, and the art style. I don't know if this is how you're supposed to play but I just flipped through most of the levels with the grace of a pogo man.

Developer

Thanks dude!! :D

Great game! I think it was very creative to use the pogo stick as the main mechanic of the game, and the music was pretty good!

Developer

Thanks man!!

If there's a pogo Olympics I definitely need to enter, you should have seen the nasty flip I did at one point.

Really fun game!  The graphics were simple but well done and the sound was perfect.  The music is an absolute bop.

The controls could be a bit finicky at times, sometimes it felt like my forward momentum would just abruptly stop.  I also got to the part with water, fell in, and that never repawned.  RIP Pogoman.

lol but really nice work :)

Oh, I forgot to mention in the game, that when you die in water you need to press Esc and then there's a respawn button (ups :) ), and the momentum just stopping is a bug, pretty annoying, didn't really know how to fix it, so I just leaved it there.

I am really happy that you liked it and thanks a lot for the feedback, it really helps me!! :D

Really liked this game! reminded me of the rage game genre with games like getting over it and jump king. hard controls to learn but im guessing thats kind of the point ;) yeah overall really good game not much to criticize.

Developer

Thanks dude! Yeah I was going for a style like jump king or something.

that game is pretty good, i just find the controls a bit finicky

Developer(+1)

Yeah, the controls were pretty tricky to make and it was my  first time playing with rotations and stuff like that as you can see in my video that I posted. I will try to improve with the controls. Thanks for playing my game btw  :D
