I'm really impressed at the ability to climb, that's a challenging mechanic to implement, especially with animations included! I also think the sound effect for collecting water is cute, and the fact that each level has a unique theme and aesthetic makes the game look really polished as well.

I liked how you implemented the controls, it feels "right" (sorry I don't know the word in english haha), maybe just the ladders feel a bit weird. I also liked the theme and the aesthetics, it goes very well with the gameplay

Don't Wake the DragonI liked how the water resource is the impetus to keep moving forward, and the platforming was very precise! Your answer to SabrinaP answered my question on whether there’s a fourth level :D Did you forget to turn off compression and set filter mode to point on the character sprite import settings (unity editor)? they seem a bit fuzzy. Grats on completing the jam!
Nice to see someone incorporate the enviromentalism diversifier. The urgency you feel to save the plant is a great motivator to get through the platforming smoothly and quickly. Is it my imagination or is there a fourth scene? Everytime I got there I would get the game over upon start, even if I had extra life for myself and my plant.

Don't Look BackReally nice gameplay: clean UI and quick understanding of what you're trying to do, certain levels did feel a bit confusing as I felt like I didn't know where I should move to keep the level going, but other than that it was very addicting and I kept wanting to play. Nice flags to allow people to have checkpoints and the water meter + hearts was very nice. Also nice climbing animation.

Don't Look BackI liked this, it was interesting to have the player health along with the health of the tree as well. I might have been trying to water the first tree that you climb at first though. Also I'm not sure if it was supposed to end there or not, but when I got to level 5, it says thanks for playing even though it looks like there is a level there in the background.

Be the best doggoThank you so much for your feedback! yeah indeed there was another level but i blocked it with the ending screen by mistake and made it unreachable. I didnt figure out my mistake until it was to late to change it :c, hope you guys would have seen it i put the most effort on it but sometimes those things happen
Nice little game, I played through it twice! :P The controls are responsive and the art is nice and cohesive. It's a nice additional mechanic having the plant and not the player be the one you need to keep alive.
One suggestion id make is to speed it all up a bit, to make it feel more like the character is in a hurry really rushing to make sure the tree survives.
