How does the game fit the theme?
Nothing appears to go wrong for the player... Things that would kill you actually help you...
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I did everything! Which was a bad idea... I ended up with no time to study for the exams...
How many people worked on the game?1

Fun game. My player did get stuck at one point. Movement was fun! Well done,
I really like the idea of things that should kill you helping you. I could also see this being a really nice speedrunning game if you get the correct timings.
Overall very enjoyable :)
I really like the idea of the movement, although it needs some polishing, right now is pretty difficult to control, specially in walls. Appreciate that all visuals and music are done by you too, such a good work!
I was actually able to squeeze in some time to play while my kids were distracted.
This was awesome! I really like the gameplay, even though I used the web version. It was really nice, great job!
From a wacky idea to a wacky fun experience!
I'm pretty bad at games that require balancing movement like this but where there's failure there's always some laughs and a bit of fun which is exactly what I had.
I think the main thing you could really do from here if you wanted to develop it more is just expand on the ideas present and go wild with it.
Fun little game and hopefully your exams went well!
Great unique gameplay, do the levels repeat after 4 (or 5 i think)? the 6th pufferfish in the level select seemed to just lead to the first again and subsequently, the rest
Hope your exams turned out well tho
Such a unique idea! I loved the bouncy level select screen and how it just says drugs when I touched the fish lol.
I liked the game it's a pretty cool concept I've never seen before. I love the jumping in this game and feels nice to do. I got a time originally of around 2 minutes but then I got a time of 33 seconds on my second play through once I figured it out. The graphics look nice and the clams spitting you out was really fun! The drugs and pufferfish mechanics are all really enjoyable :)
The only issue I really see is that it's very easy to get stuck on walls and difficult to get unstuck from them sometimes. Something that's less of an issue and more of a preference would be to add more controls even just moving left and right I often felt like I had no control of the character and there wasn't much to do besides press button. Overall, I really liked the game, but I just wish there was more to it. for a game jam game, it's a pretty solid entry.
It was pretty fun and a little bit hard) I like the visuals and music. Awesome idea for a game!
Btw, i completed the game in 3 minutes
Once I understood what was going on, the game was a fun enough time. Very simple, but the game naturally lent itself to being pretty funny. I like how everything easily flowed into on another!
So ummm... I saw that little save file of yours, and uh
thought it'd be funny to mess around 😂
That aside - what a fun take on the concept! Felt like the game was constantly trolling itself. The gameplay was really fun and the mechanics are surprisingly varied for a jam game!
The only thing that bothered me was that I didn't have an option to directly continue to the next stage - but it is what it is, haha. Impressive enough as is!
Really nice and fun game! I love the controls of the pogo stick :) Nice work!
