Very chill game! the only thing is the audio overlaps sometimes. 

Still great game!

You know, I did need to chill after working hard on this game jam. Glad I came to Pogo Mountain

Nice Job for going solo :D It was super chill!

My note is that sometimes the audio was overlapping and hard to hear!

Developer

Thanks for taking the time to play, glad you enjoyed it! 


That is a bug in the gameplay that I noticed too late to fix for the jam 🙃 Next time I will make sure to code a trigger that stops the sounds from playing at the same time!

This was a very calming game after this Jam. Thank you and good job!

Great take on the theme! I'm missing an ending though. It's sad reaching the rocket, and then just getting stuck, haha.

Overall great game!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! The ending is at the rocket, but I think its possible to bounce past the “end trigger” and miss the final quote. Something I need to patch for sure!

Bennett Foddy would be proud, great inspiration for the theme

How dare you pull a Bob Ross on me LOL. Jokes aside, I do like this getting over it type of game that pretends to be calm but is quite brutal. It's so funny when I see one. The levels are quite harsh, especially the jump just before the rocket. It's probably due to not being able to see where you are landing, and there is no way to tell your horizontal speed once you jumped high into the air. That alone cost me more than 5 times the jump. And does the game end at the rocket? Feel like you've not said anything there but there is no way to proceed, and I got a bit confused.

Anyway, you still did a nice job making this game! Keep up the good work!

Developer

Thank you, and I swear its just a cozy game… 🙃

 I do need to fix the camera panning to zoom out when the player makes a big jump. Lesson learned! (The game does end at the rocket, time ran out for the game jam so I couldn’t build a bigger level)

Probably as relaxing as an foddian game can get and your voice works great for the narration. Cute visuals as well!

Might be nice to have the camera pan down more when falling as sometimes I didn’t know where I was about to land, but otherwise I enjoyed it!

Developer

Thank you! The camera panning is something I need to work on for sure. Really just better camera controls in general! Hopefully my next game jam I will do better 🙂

Submitted(+1)

love the voice and the game can be nice and fun, but I feel like the controls could be more intuitive and sometimes its hard to see where you are going. good work though, its a pretty cool game!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Do you have any suggestions for how I could improve the controls? 


The camera system needs work for sure, I have received enough feedback that I think I know how to fix it for my next game jam 🙂

Submitted(+1)

You have a great narration voice! I wish there were less jumps of faith where the camera would show were I would be going. Otherwise, challenging but fun!

Developer

Thank you! I wasn’t intending for there to be any “blind jumps” in the game, I should have made a better camera system to zoom out when the player has big jumps. Lesson learned! 🙃

How a simple game can be so good!! Graphics are just right! I really liked your chill music and audio although sometimes a vocal audio overlaps another one at the beggining. Great work!

Developer

Thank you! I wanted to focus on very simple gameplay but trying to make it “feel” as fun as possible 🙂

Very chill and very nice after a game jam. I like the inclusion of a narrator and I liked the art style direction and the music. I found a small bug where if you clip the edge of a platform just right, it will make you jump multiple times, which I think lead to me missing the trigger to end the game, but I still enjoyed the game. Good stuff :)

Developer(+1)

Much appreciated! I did notice the glitch in the physics where the player can jump super high if they hit a platform at a certain angle. Honestly its kind of a fun exploit if you figure it out so I think I will leave it in the game 🙂 Maybe someone can figure out how to use it to speed run!


Sorry it stopped you from reaching the end. Thank you for taking time to play and review my game! I will check out your game soon

What a chill game, actually wish there was more! You have a great voice to narrate!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! I thinking about expanding the game after the jam is over, its a fun concept to play around with 🙂

Nice Relaxing game, loved the voice :)

Developer(+1)

I appreciate it! Loved the trailer for your game and cant wait to watch someone stream it (can’t play cause its only Windows download)
