Your graphics is very good, but I had to turn off the audio, so I don't even know if you have background music beside music when text is appearing. I would recommend you focus on repairing jumping - too fast jumping up and too fast falling back.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
A chaotic group of bandits have decided to free all the bonsais in the world. It is up to you to defeat the bonsai bandits and take down their leader, no matter how sturdy he (or she) may be.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes. I used some code I found online but changed it to work for my project

I'm not sure what I just played x'DD
Definitely quite funny, the art looks really good, but I don't think it really fits the theme and the lvl design could be better.
Man, Your games visuals are really cool. Some critics are:
- Dialogue should have a skip button.
- Dialogues SFX are too irritating.
- you should use cinemachine
I'd love you to play and rate mine. Its unique platformer and top-down blending. This is my first jam BTW. Please check the gameplay, I bet you will love the challenge when you play by yourself.
Hey the game is very good looking, add some music and everything should work fine, the camera feels a bit restrictive at times
good job.
Cool pixel art. The gameplay is a classic platformer. In general, it turned out not bad, but my ears could not stand this sound during dialogues))
I loved the art style, I just would like more difficult on the gameplay. Good job!
Show post...
the art style was cute and the game was fun too, for better camera movement install and use Cinemachine it really makes the camera move the character smoothly
overally great job ;)
I love how this game looks! The animations were really nice and the dialogue gives some charm to the game. The gameplay feels good too, but I think the camera could still be improved. Good job!
really good art, but the gameplay can be better,
by using something like cinemachine instead of making the camera a child of the player the movement will feel better,
and you could change player jump height .
and the final boss was a little bit weird.
and you could add music for the game.
but over all good job, and i hope that i can see other good work from you.
I'd appreciate it if you could play/rate my game as well! :)
love the animations and the art, made me laugh a few times. Love the story.
let me know if you do the bonsai tree fight in the future i feel unfinished
Cute little game, I love the artwork. The text speed is way too slow though, it felt like I spent more time reading than playing the game. The platforming is decent but there was a lot of blind jumps, either keep all the terrain inside the camera or zoom the camera out more. Good stuff!
Really nice job! It's short, but there's not much you can do about that in a game jam. I saw that you put a lot of your time & effort into the art, which payed off - because it looks great! And even though you put a good amount of time into art, you still were able to create good gameplay that does not feel like there's anything wrong with it. Good job, make more games.
All that I can think to add later on is more areas to explore, probably more going on with the boss, perhaps things that change up the gameplay - but overall it was a really good job with your usage of time.
I would also appreciate if you rated my submission, I'm trying to rate a lot of games - so if you do too that would be greatly appreciated.
