Very cute and fun! Everything felt so smooth, nice job! I appreciated the full featured settings menu, too. One bit of advice is for the volume sliders, they shut off in about the middle. There's a linear_to_db and vice versa that makes it in-line with what we expect from a volume slider. Such a great entry!

I wasn't aware of that function. That's very useful, I appreciate you telling me.
And thank you so much for playing :D

A lot of great things in here! I like how fluid things feel, and really appreciate the ability to adjust the camera sensitivity. 

Nice music, I wasn't sure at first with the sound palette being used, but it is quite catchy.

Congrats!

Developer

Thank you :D
Glad you liked the music.

Nice game! I found it very cozy just running around the map, good music and very cute art style!

I think I found 4, but could not reach the one on the roof. The wall jumping worked, but would benefit from more animation. I wish I could play on a controller.

Thank you for playing. I might add controller support later on. Thanks for the feedback.

Cute little platformer with the little boy looking for pinecones. I only found 2 lol. The music was good and the mechanics were nice for the gliding and wall jump, but I didn't really see a need to use either of them to get to any objectives...though I couldn't really find the pinecones as the world was so big, maybe some kind of minimap or compass to point me in the right direction would add a lot to the game! Great effort, fun to play!

Well thank you.
You need to use the abilities for most of the pine cones but the game is not very designed otherwise and somewhat lacking in level design. Reason being that I mostly threw it together on the last day since I didn't really feel that motivated to work on the game. Thanks for playing tho.
