This was a really creative interpretation of the theme! Great job!

Submitted

Fun little game, and very unique too. The music ramping up was nicely done as well. I can see this being even more fun and enjoyable on a phone. Kind of like a sideways Doodle Jump. Nice job on this!

Submitted

Great idea. It would be a great mobile game. I hope you develop it

Submitted

Very good idea, never seen a game like this one. I did not get the flowers utility but I played for a while. Congrats I had a good moment playing your game with my son!

Pretty unique mechanic, has lots of potential to be expanded on.

One thing I don't really like is that you can get easily stuck if you land just one pixel under a block

Also gameplay gets pretty stale after a while, since you have to constantly wait for the guy to jump, so my suggestion would be to let the player control when to jump.

Other than that great job, reminds me of jump knight, and was challenging enough to be engaging

Clever take on the theme, enjoyed it. I did get stuck on a platform once but apart from that it ran really well, was fun

Works great, simple concept but fun!  Audio is on point too, like the stomp sound.

Really fun take on the theme and cool game, I played on computer so it was pretty hard, especially on the long jumps, but I still managed to get to the end! =D

I don’t know if it’s just me, but going horizontal made me bolder while playing than vertical ones. Really cool how a little twist can change a player’s POV.

Very nice game!

Ah never thought about that, thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

cute idea! I would love a scoring system.

Developer

Yea I was actually thinking of doing something with the flowers/petals or something with the number of jumps, but I didn't get to it. Thanks for playing!

damn, very cool concept. I played on computer so I cant fully rate the gameplay but felt pretty smooth. It looks pretty too. I would change the sound fx tho, the landing sound is a bit harsh and gets old after a while. But all in all a nice game.

I guess most people on itch play on computer, but I wanted to try something else for a change. I tried to get a "heavy landing" feeling to the sound so it's probably a bit intense, thank you for the feedback and for playing!
