Really cool game! I always love a good platfformer. Besides that grandpa idea is interesting and funny I really like it. I wonder how did they both get there in the first place jeje

Great game!
(Don't forget to check out mine :D)

Hey there,

Don't want to mess with that grandpa haha. Really simple controls and visuals, the way I like it, the audio matched the randomness of the two character.

my only concerns are that the jump feels like your floating.

Cheers!!!

This was a fun (and hard) little puzzle platformer. My biggest issue was that the jumping was pretty punishing, especially on some of the later bat levels where there wasn't much time. I think adding some "coyote time" to the jumps would have made it feel better. Overall I thought it was fun game to play!

This is a good game but it's sometimes too hard or too easy. (I did not manage to finish the level of the bats)

Wow this game was fun! I spent longer than I care to admit on that last level but it was worth it. My one complaint is to make the throw button a different key. Holding D to run right and throwing at the same time was difficult.

Great game, gameplay is cool and original ! Charadesign look very cool but I think this is too much zoomed out and it cause some glitch on your drawing... :/

I ant you ! 🐜

ZlaktarnDeveloper3 years ago

Thank you very much for your kind words and feedback. I agree with you. The camera should've been more zoomed in and there wasn't really a reason for it being so zoomed out.

Great idea, gameplay, and level design are good. Characters are a bit small on the screen. This game is very good
