How does the game fit the theme?
This game has an ending.
"Guffbol wants to go on a walk.
But he is an absolute Idiot. An imbecile. A buffoon if you will. He thinks he can just "go on a walk and nothing will go wrong". You must make sure nothing does go wrong.
What a nincompoop. Dimwit. Chump. Moron. Ignoramus." - Mom
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?

A simple and silly game with fun voice acting. Would be fun to add a few more mechanics, add to the chaos toward the end. Great job!
Short, simple but engaging gameplay! Authentic and goofy voice acting! Love the ending meme reference as well!
This title has a lots room to grow into a bigger and addictive game!
Really appreciate your comment, I’m glad you got to the ending reference as I don’t think many did. Thanks for playing! :D
Silly and goofy! I cant lie though, I wouldn't really call it fun. Its mostly waiting and dealing with annoying sounds. I could see the potential if there was a more active role to play, maybe with more things to do / protect the round man from?
I do get that honestly, I planned for it to have multiple types of enemies that require different things to defeat them and ways to move the round man ahead or slow him down, but honestly time constraints only allowed me to make what is in the game currently, especially as a solo dev. Thanks for the feedback still! Thanks for playing.
So charming and unique! Had fun!
I’m glad. Thanks for playing!
I loved how goofy this game was with the super goofy voices too! Liked to see your take on the theme, very unique
Aye thanks man, appreciate it :D
This game is really goofy and funny. I love how the chaos of fire builds up over time and the character is just like "Nothing Can Go Wrong". Very cool setup!
Thanks a lot man! Really appreciate your comment.
Honestly the audio is what sold me on this game. The laughing narrative made me and my wife crack up to play it again multiple times.
What I'd like to see:
What I think should improve:
Aww, that makes me really happy to hear. I’m really glad you enjoyed it. I do definitely agree the sprites in the game aren’t the best 😂 Thanks so much for playing!
Goofy game, I liked the sound effects.
I personally would have added some checkpoints here and there though (for the jam version).
thank you so much for playing, yeah I do agree the progression can improve
Alright so some pointers, a lot of waiting really kills games you want to find the balance of giving the player something to do and giving him some breathing room, here it could use some more stuff to do. The tutorial section having to be repeated each time doesn't really help with that so it would probably be smart to lay out some checkpoints throughout or at least have one after the tutorial. Also there was a bunch of sorting issues with the grass and flowers but honestly instead of placing them manually next time you could try doing some procedual placement as in for instance setting up a loop that will place them randomly layer by layer so it places them without the layering issues.
Thanks alot for your comment and feedback :)
Have to agree with this! If theres updates on progression I think this has potential but I will wait until then for a showcase :)
I did add a hotfix that skips the tutorial if you die and retry. I did hope for the game to be sort of geometry dash esque where you'd have to restart from the beginning if you failed. Thanks for the feedback either way!
His laugh is SOMETHING! I died at end, but bird who kill me fly to end and i win :)
Haha didn't even know that was possible! Thanks for playing :D
Those voice effects are hilarious!
Hey :( your game looks so funny! But i cant play it!! This is what it shows. Is this your first project? i have never done a web project before, so i dont know why this appears.
so im currently looking trough the internet, somewhere it says to disable your compression Format or set it to Gzip? Should find it under File > build Settings > player settings > publishing settings! i hope this helps!
OMG thanks so much! Would've been done for if you didn't tell me... Updated it now to and disabled compression. Also added a downloadable version just in case :) Really appreciate you.
Now the game works!! And it was FUNNY! Suddnly Bird started chasing me and THESE EYES!!!!!!! hahahahha The game feels rly nice in the controlls and i like how you slowly rise the difficulty of the game!
❤️
i would also say, to at least upload a video on the page of your gameplay, so we at least know how it would look like :) maybe post on yt under uncategorized or smth and then add the video via yt trough itch
