Hey! Wanted to play your game! Looks awesome! However, I can't seem to have the game load. It is stuck on loading at the end.

Had so much fun playing this! The graphics are great, and the music really suits them really well.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback. :)

I really liked the bright colorful graphics and snazzy music! It gets a bit frustrating when you're expected to ride on the missiles, especially right before the end, but other than that the platforming was pretty solid! Good job!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback. I’m glad you liked it. :)

Nice game I like it. Rated it! If possible do rate and play my game :)

Developer

Thanks for your feedback. I will definitely try out your game. :)

Fun platformer game! Sometimes a slid off a platform (I think because you are using a circle collider for the feet) which sometimes felt unfair for me. I also was holding my mouse button the entire time, I'd suggest just keeping the magnifying glass mode on.

Aside from that I had a fun time collecting all the coins. I also like that you have a death counter as an extra stat.

Really good game.

Developer

thanks for your lovely but also criticizes feedback. ! :)

The game was a lot of fun to play, I like the main mechanic. You added cool music and sound effects and took care of the theme. I really like the amount of effort you put into it.

If you want some feedback, here's mine: I think the blur is a little bit too strong. It makes the game a little weird when moving fast (like when the player loses and goes back). I think a clear look would be much better.

Other than that, I think you did a really great job with the game. Congrats!

I would love to have you playing mine too, if you don't mind of course! ^_^

Thanks for your feedback. :) I really appreciate, when people like you take so much time to write some feedback and as a beginner I am really thankful for that. I will definitely try out your game to. :<)

And to the motion blur. I noticed it after submission time ended. I am definitely going to change that. :)

You made a fun game, although it get's really hard at some point. The graphics look nice! 

The web version is not loading, did you turn off the compression in the build settings? (I had the same problem before, and that was the solution that worked for me :) )

Developer

Thanks for your Feedback. :)

I will try fixing the Web Version. (But I can’t do it, when the jam is still in submission process, right ?)

No, you'll have to wait till after the rating period is over!

Cool game! I definitely see how its similar to Brackeys entry but I get that your a beginner like you said (So am I!) on your page and it is cool to try to see if you can recreate a game!

Last thing, could you maybe review my game because I want some feedback.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback. I will definitely try out your game. :)

its a little too close to a game jam game made by brackeys a while ago. other than that maybe try making the bullet bills that are actually blocks move the player with them.

Submitted

I tried to play your game 3 times but it just wouldn't load for me. This looks like a cool game from the screenshots though :)

Submitted

This game reminds me of that Brackeys game submission a while back

It's a pretty fun game, I really like the art and the use of the mechanic.

Good work!

Developer

Thank you. I will try out your game too.
