A little bit of balance and more things to jump onto would be fun. Would be a cute mobile game.

Developer

Thank you!

Fun and simple game! I would've loved to see a bit more diversity in the gameplay and obstacles, as it was sort of just the same thing forever. Some more interesting graphics would be really nice to see too, although I can appreciate the minimal vibes still.

Overall, pretty fun experience! Would love to see more to it. :)

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! Definitely could use some polish and diversity.

Great game to kill 5 minutes, my score is over 14000 right now and you should do something to the balance because i basically can't finish the game and last 4000 i've made AFK, nice name by the way

Developer

Wow, 14k? That’s way more than I was ever able to do :p

It’s not good that it allowed the player to survive for long AFK tho. I have an issue with the spawner, that I think I made worse just before the submission! Thank you for your feedback!

Nice little game, given you only had a few hours it was quite enjoyable. I would make it so that the clay ball spawns are frequent, and then add a couple random spawns, so that if the player plays perfectly they can get a really good score.

I played this simple game for way too long, love the music.

Developer

Thank you so much!

A cute game in its simplicity, in which I got stuck for about twenty minutes, forgetting about everything.

This is every game developer’s dream! Thank you!

Nice game! If the item spawn was not a FULL random, would have been great. In some situations it's impossible to play. Maybe use grid system for spawn points (more visually appealing) and  pseudo random with spawn chances next time?

Developer

I shouldn’t have done last minute changes to the spawners :p Thank you for your feedback!

Submitted(+1)

The largest issue with this game is the way the items spawn. If the clay blobs are entirely random, then the player can fail even when making zero mistakes, due to the random nature of the clay blobs spawning or not. Failing when making zero mistakes is a terrible feeling for the player.

Other than that, the game works fine! Zero bugs, the double jump was cool, the music was laughably dramatic, and I had fun.

Developer

Thank you for your detailed feedback, I certainly learned a lot about how not to implement random generation!

Nice little game. There are areas without clay, I lost a couple of times because of this.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

Nice Game

Thank you!

Nice simple but fun side scroller with a smart implementation of the theme!

Developer

Thank you for your kind words!

Funny simple game. A bit too much randomness... but I like music : )

Developer

Unfortunately difficulty isn’t scaling well :( Thank you for your feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Well done, that is a really unique concept!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

I like the music. Maybe I'm just suffering from a skill issue but it seemed like there were some times where it just wasn't possible to survive. Long stretches without clay (or even water; just long, empty stretches). I like how bouncy the sprites are.

Developer

I won’t be relying on such randomness in my future games. Thank you for your feedback!

Very dramatic music :3, could have maybe used something cuter. Otherwise cute minimalistick graphics.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

Music gives James Bond/John Wick vibe ayooo B)

John Wick is my hero :D

How does it feel being the funniest person in this jam?

Developer

yes

solid work with simple shapes

slap in a free tier online leaderboard from something like lootlocker and maybe it gives people incentive to get higher scores

i’m biased towards simple shapes (my previous game was an ice cube…), so you definitely win some points there

adding some other mechanic later on like fire to harden could keep it interesting

good job getting it out there

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your feedback! I wasn’t aware of lootlocker, saved it for later. :)

i love the concept and how the clay ball scales as you collect clay

Developer

Thank you a lot!
