Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote the code and made the graphics. I used existing music from other sources.

Very unique and extremely fun game idea!
So much fun!
Things I enjoyed ✔️
Things I would like to possibly see with your title. 🤷♂️
Overall 📓
Very good job on this title! Love the score system, I love the sprite work, the gameplay, everything! Good job!
Nice game! I really enjoyed playing it! One thing I would maybe changes is the amount of time you get by killing enemies since it's usually better to avoid enemies than killing them right now (I think) Also, the sounds and the visuals are great!
Being a pogo stick crushing balloon bois never felt better
This was great; I loved the mechanics, sound effects and it felt very fluid.
Fun and good looking game. A bit uncomfortable because the huge distance between platforms and relatively small visibility window makes my jump down blindly. Most of them work out though, so I guess level designer took that into consideration. Overall, very decent game.
Cool game. Good job and music effects)
It's a fun game, the graphics are consistent and beautiful, at the beginning I didn't notice the effects of the bubbles but once you got it, it's entertaining, well done.
great game! I like it!
Fun, but would like more to do and less blind drops. In addition, a backdrop would really help with this games visuals. Good submission!
Now that I've rated yours, could you rate my game please? https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-10/rate/2236541
A solid entry with fun gameplay and appealing art. The game's mechanics align well with the theme, but enhancing the dive mechanic's impact and addressing UI scaling could elevate the experience.
Fun little game. Overall really solid entry. Well done.
really fun little game, made it to 800ft on the dot :D cool take on the theme and I enjoyed how the powerups were within the bubbles
This game is really good, and the art is really fun.
Cool little game here the gameplay was fun and you hit the brief well. Loved the art style and music fir with it well. well done for the submission
Fun controls, cute visuals, satisfying sounds and mechanics. Not much to complain about here - what it does it pulls off perfectly except maybe that dive mechanic, i didn't feel like it was noticeably faster, have to add some kind of quick impulse and animation to make it satisfying
Will note some weird UI scaling on the game over screen, did not effect the experience or enjoyment so wont impact the score I leave but figured I'd let you know if you hadn't already been made aware
Thanks for the feedback! If I update the game, I'll definitely have to tweak the dive mechanic. Glad you enjoyed it!
Quick question. Did you play the game in full screen mode? I noticed the UI seems to behave better when playing in full screen. I'm not sure why that is.
Thanks for playing!
Feels like Downwell combined with WarioLand - Cool!
Pretty cool game! The controls are pretty solid, and the theme is used to good effect. The gameplay loop is simple and effective, easy to understand and challenging to get a firm grip on. My biggest nitpick is that the dive move is pretty understated - I couldn't really tell I was using it at first. It doesn't really seem to increase the gravity on the player character that much. I understand why that's the case on a game balance level, since the player character being a pogo stick and therefore bouncy is part of the challenge, but it does feel slightly underwhelming.
Very cool game, love the bubbles and the colors you chose! I tried to pause the game at a point, but I wasn't able to, so I wish I was able to do that, but then again it might be intentional. Also, very nice retro UI!
