Time of 13:24:790. Love the physics of this game. It's super fun!

I'm glad you made it to the end! Thanks for playing and sharing your time!

And also, me and my brother (the artist) were happy to see that Corgicycle made it into your top 12 collection! Especially out of over 200! That's awesome, thanks for sharing that.

Really fun level design, and the controls are so smooth! I really like that you're only allowed to lean so far in one direction or another, so you don't have to worry about falling over and can just focus on jump timing and positioning. I'm also a big fan of how you implemented the wall jump! Sliding down slowly gives you a bit of tension/urgency, but is still lenient enough to be fun and forgiving. Great work all around!

Thanks! I really appreciate the detailed feedback! And I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed the game design!

This was amazing! I really loved the physics and feel of the unicycle, the level design of the courses was also fantastic. Cute corgi riding the unicycle a huge plus! Fantastic work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I appreciate this a lot.

Loved the idea for the maps. Their minimalistic design allows you to concentrate fully on the gameplay and appreciate the cute corgi even more. I must confess I found it difficult at first, but it's really fun!

Developer

My brother will be glad to hear you liked the corgi art! Yeah the game wasn't balanced properly, but I'm glad you still had fun. Thanks for the comment! Se lo agradezco!

Fun and cute. Very simple and you managed to get a good variety of levels in. I like the colour theming for each race. I found sometimes holding down wasn't super responsive.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I'm glad you had fun! And yeah, I know exactly what you're referring to about holding down. There were a few kinks I couldn't get out in time. Still, thanks for the comment!

Funny how such a simple concept like this could be expanded into a full game. I like that theres skill need to get a good string of jumps going. Im terrible at it though, hah.

Developer

I know right! I'm dying to make this bigger, I'm already working on tools for it.  I really like the room for skill too! After I added the ability to go faster downhill I probably spent too much time trying to beat my last time and not enough on level design. You're probably not that bad at it, I just made some pretty unbalanced levels. In any case, thanks for this comment, I really appreciate it!

Very stylish game with some very cute art and fun movement.

Developer

Thanks! I'm happy you liked the movement! My brother will be happy to hear you liked his art.

fun game, especially the unique background with those textures

Developer

I'm glad you liked the textures! I had to write a shader to make them look right, so I'm glad the time investment paid off. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

I really enjoyed playing this , controls are little rough for my taste but overall great work , keep it up!

Developer

I'm glad you had some fun! The controls definitely need some more work to get them where I (and all players) need them to be, and I already started a list of changes to work on. Thanks so much for the comment! I'll be playing yours soon!

Wish I had this as a kid, would've spent hours playing this on the schools computer lol

Developer(+1)

Same...  Thanks for the comment! I consider this high praise.

Hah very cute! Had a blast playing this.

Developer

I'm glad you had fun!

Very cool! very unique! Congratulations, I had a blast!

Developer

Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

I love how much depth the pogo-unicycle has. There's a lot of interesting interaction you can get from just 3 input keys. It does feel a little difficult to control, and I did find myself struggling a bit with some of the level geometry, but a really cool idea overall.

Developer

Thanks for the comment! The game definitely needed a more thorough playtesting before submitting, but I'm glad you could see through the problems how cool a pogocycle can be!

Submitted(+1)

Really fun, cutesy, and surprisingly mechanically deep game! Well done!

Developer

I'm glad you had fun! And also that you noticed the depth I tried to put into pogocycle racing. Thanks so much for the comment!

Submitted(+2)

This is completely ridiculous, well done!

Developer(+1)

Thanks!

Game kinda reminds me of old flash and cool math game style games. I liked the music and the art was well drawn. Spacebar being reset level messed me up a few times, and wall jump and charge jump could use a bit of polish and animation. Nice little game to play. Its tie to theme is a bit loose, though.

Developer

My brother will be happy to hear you liked the art! Yeah even I got confused by the spacebar a couple times, it's like a tongue twister for your fingers. The theme was hard to design for without making a game with multiple modes, so this is what we came up with to get around that interpretation we thought most people would use. Forgot that plan could backfire in that most people could also disagree with our interpretation! In any case thanks so much for the honest feedback. It'll really help when we get a chance to update our game later!

Submitted(+1)

I must not be getting the controls at all, because WHEW, I couldn't figure out how to finish the last jump of the first level!

Developer

Yeah I was watching someone else play earlier and they quit at the last jump too. I definitely should have added some feedback on the "consecutive jumps" mechanic. But thanks for giving my game a try!
