Nice game!

Great music, sounds visuals and in general, all the core gameplay was fun.

I didn't really get the connection to the theme, and sometimes the movement didn't work for me.

Overall, great game, love it.

Thanks.
The connection to the theme is the more you carry, the less distance you can jump.

Nice game , it is quite challenging. Thew only issue I found , when the enemy shoot the bomb against me, he killed and the player disappears but the game didn't stop and was stuck there.. 

Good Job

Developer

Thanks for your feedback!
I haven't noticed this problem so far but you have the R button to restart a level.

Cool game! I like that you can basically jump mid-air if you screw the jump up which actually add an extra layer of "Oh crap" when you slide to far or something :)


Well done!

Nice game. It make me think of worms obviously. The found the slide effect sometime annoying, I think it would be more fun to stop when you hit the ground. Concept is pretty cool. Arts are great.
Well done.

Developer

Thanks for your comment!
I agree about the slide effect, I might fix it after the voting period ends.

Love it! awesome music, though the control for jumping seemed a little hard. otherwise, one of the best!

I had a lot of fun playing this. The music suited the game perfectly. There were different types of enemies and running to grab the bombs before them was really fun. I loved your pixel art. This was an amazing game for a game jam and the use of theme was really good. And seriously?!?! 12 levels?? Damnn that must have taken a lot of time!. Thanks for this game It was really fun!

Please Play and rate my game as well. I would really appreciate it! Thanks!!!

Developer

Thanks for your kinds words!
I am checking your game right now.

The music fit the game perfectly and the concept was also very unique! I like how the trajectory is there before you jump too- that's just one of the many bits of great polish that was there! Maybe there could be a little marker where you are going to hit because sometimes the bottom of the players body hit the platform. Overall, I had a lot of fun playing and this is an amazing jam entry!

Developer

Fun little game! I really liked the art and the sounds. You also added a lot of juice making it really satisfying to play. It was fun jumping from island to island and tossing bombs at the pirates.

One suggestion may be to allow the player to control their jump distance. If not that maybe add a little more friction when the player jumps, it makes low angle jumps a little awkward.

Overall great game, I had a lot of fun playing it. Keep up the great work!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback.
The player can control their jump distance by controlling the distance between the mouse and the player character, but I totally agree that the movement mechanic needs an upgrade.

Fun little game! Really enjoyed the art, SFX, and music. Controls were pretty tricky, but I'll admit I only have a touchpad to use. I found that launching myself up was the best way to land without sliding off the map. I got the hang of it after a while though. Overall, great first submission!

Would really appreciate it if you checked out my game out too!

Overall, well done! I love the way the pirates move in this game - it's a bit complicated, but once you get the hang of it, you can pull some crazy things. I also enjoyed the polish that this game seemed to have.

My suggestions for improving the game aren't too big - I think that it needs to be clear which bombs are falling from the sky, and bombs need to spawn earlier (I felt like I was waiting forever before bombs spawned in the middle levels). Also, the enemy AI. It's easier to get them to kill themselves than to use the bombs.

Developer

Thanks!
I totally agree with your suggestions.

Really innovative, good use of the theme, cute art + sounds. I liked that I can kill enemies by pushing them off the cliff. Very often I would collect bombs, which weigh me down and increase the bomb counter, but I couldn't throw them, even after using the scroll, which resulted in getting stuck.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback!

About the throwing issue: you need to use the right mouse button as you use the left mouse button for movement.

Submitted

I beat the game actually, I know you right click to throw. Sometimes it didn't let me to though.

+ Love the graphics
+ Great music
+ Fun to play

- Think the link with the theme is a bit tenuous
- Controls felt really weird, I would prefer that the player flew/aimed towards the mouse position
- When you die you don't always respawn, meaning that you had to refresh the page, which loses your progress

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your feedback. 
I am planning to improve the controls after the voting period and about the respawn I will check it later.

Submitted(+1)

Cool gameplay! however, it was easiest to just let the enemy kill themselves.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! The enemy's AI is physics-based so it took me a couple of days to make.
I would like to improve it in the future.

Nice game with great music, sounds and art style. Very fun worms-like gameplay. In one round I has my bomb hit enemy's bomb mid air, it was beautiful. Inverted aiming mess me up sometimes. Good explosions sounds and effects.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!
I want to improve the controls after the voting period ends.

Really cool idea for an action game! Aiming where you want to go is a bit hard sometimes but great work!

Wow, super interesting controls. I dont think I've played a game with that type of mechanic. Definitely not easy to control but very cool, love the theme too. 

Developer

Thanks a lot!

Nice game, I like the visuals and sound. The AI was okay, sometimes they would jump really high, but it was hilarious to see. Great implementation of the theme!

Developer

Thanks a lot for your feedback!

This is a really fun and sometimes challenging game. I like the growth of enemy types and gameplay mechanics over time. It is similar to worms, but with the added pressure of moving as well. Great work!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback!
