In what way does your game fit the theme?
You are a peanut who collects peanuts that will make you stronger.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I downloaded some free assets, but I did most of the game.

Wow! Merci beaucoup =) C'est cool d'enfin voir quelqu'un qui parle ma langue =) (à moins que ce sois juste ton username). Pour pas prendre de chances -> As you said, the sliding mechanic is difficult to use, but that was my intention. On the other hand, I know that it was really poorly explained and that falling is frustrating because the player is slow. This will be fixed in the post-jam version =) Thanks again!
Ok... definitely one of the most bizarre games I've played in the Jam.
My first run was 44:35... until I figured out the "sliding under the planks" (cause I've read a comment)
That should definitely must be correct if you plan to upgrade the game. The instructions in-game are not clear about that feature.
Also, maybe make it slide always... not only when not bounce on the plank, cause in the middle high planks I miss the jump/slide and had to redo ALL the way up (in the last run, had to do it 3 times) which is really annoying.
Apart from that... the game is fun, bizarre but fun. Very well designed the plank path. Hard sometimes, but well done. The music feels nice at first, but after 45 minutes lost the original mood.
And love the "footstep" sfx with the small pieces of peanut falling... nice touch!
Great job! Congratulations!

Thank you very much! I really didn't think anyone would spend so much time on my game =) As you mentioned the instructions are not really clear and this is going to be changed as soon as I can switch to another version of the game. For difficulty , I plan to add a quick way to get around to get back to the top (like a checkpoint). Thanks again it's really appreciated!
-
I don’t like the camera movement
-
The music feels too loud
-
Jumping feels too float-y. Perhaps gravity is too low?
-
I don’t know how to explain this but the peanut model looks weird
-
The way the peanuts merge is cool
-
These wooden platforms clip into the ground which looks weird
-
The walking SFX gets repetitive
-
I know it’s intentional but the sliding under platforms feels like a bug and it’s not very intuitive. It’s also quite difficult to pull off sometimes
Thanks for playing the game! For the sliding mecanic, you have to go forward and jump to touch the ceiling of the planks. If you don't bump on it, you can slide by going in a down angle under the planks. I know it's very not clear but I made it that way because I wanted it to be difficult. It may have be to hard xd. So the game is not just about jumping, you can slide under planks to reach other peanuts =)
Thanks for your honest review! I understand what you are saying about the player, but the goal is to grow taller to reach higher tables. In other words, you have to collect the peanuts otherwise it is impossible to jump higher. As for the gliding mechanics, I was afraid that many would find it difficult to understand and I should have improved it. Thanks again =)
