Very enyojable and funny experience! Love the idea and art.
Nice game. Good levels design
Great Work.
Oh! I didn't know I had to fail the game in order to progress (should have read the description). After that the game became very cool! Love the humour!
What a fun concept! The dialogue, puzzles, everything just goes together so well! The puzzle ideas are very well designed, and the mechanics of it were all very well developed. Overall, I had a very nice time playing as a kiwi, and I like kiwis and kiwis are very nice. Great job!
Thank you for the kind words 😄😄 Yeaa kiwis are very cool beans!
I didn't understand at first that I had to die but then it was very fun and a great game!
Thank you for playing, glad you enjoyed!
Fun concept. Great visuals, sound, and level design. Sometimes I got stuck in an upward fan -- it wouldn't push me high enough to get to the platforms on either side of it.
Thank you for the kind words! Humm not sure about the fans, I'll definitely take a look 👍
Cool game idea and funny characters! After understanding that the game is about losing, it becomes very enjoyable :D
Great to hear, thank you! Yea kiwis are super funni 😄
Really great looking game with awesome puzzles. I think you've hit the sweet spot with the amount of content for a game jam. I also liked how you introduced the mechanics, the dialogue, basically everything. A small nitpick would be that it's not entirely clear that you're supposed to 'lose'. (I actually read a comment about it, so I didn’t have the issue, but if I hadn’t, I would have probably been confused.) Well done!
Thanks for the detailed feedback! Yeah I definitely think we could improve that part 👍
Absolutely stellar cute lil flightless bird also the mechanics r really cool
Thank you! 😄 Is your name related to kiwis by any chance lol
oh how i wish they r adorable
Interesting game with cute visuals! For some reason after I finished a level it would take me back to the start of the level. I had to use level select to play all of the levels.
We should've made it clearer, the goal in each level is to die. That's totally on us haha
oooooh that makes a lot more sense lol! Okay I replayed and it was super fun! Thanks for making
No problem. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Tysm for giving it another shot!
I love it! Took me a few tries to understand that I was supposed to jump into the lava lol. Once I figured that out, it was a blast! Wish there were more levels, but for GameJam it's the perfect size.
Thanks a ton! glad you enjoyed 😊
I love this idea. It's super close to my original idea for this jam and it's great to see a team that properly implemented it
Any game where I get to be a kiwi gets 5 stars
Thank you! Haha yea kiwis are great 😄
Cool game, nice arts!
Took me a bit to realize what the goal of the game was. But, after finding it out, I can say that it's quite an interesting premise. Maybe a small cutscene/introduction at the start could've helped.
Great background btw.
Some levels are quite a bit challenging, but i wish there were some levels that were a bit more challenging? (like more rewarding to accomplish i guess).
The only problem is with the last to levels: the player can just use a bit of luck and brute force to complete them.
Overall, i enjoyed the game!
Thank you for the thoughtful feedback, especially on the puzzle design!
I first thought the game was bugged. But now I get it after reading the comments! Nice game!
Very fun game and great art-style! Felt very well polished for a jam, good job!
Took me a while to realize that the goal was to die 😆
Some levels are really inventive ! Well played !
Fun game, Love this theme
Very fun game, I really enjoyed the puzzles! Great job!
This is a clever game and fun game. At first, I nonchalantly gallivanted about, and then—boom—it got serious. I was challenged and honestly feared I wouldn't make it. But in the end, I triumphed! Exciting, dramatic, and totally worth it—reaches the full potential of a kiwi.
