  • Cute simple platformer. The controls were nice, juggling between the jump and the dash was nice. If anything the level design ended up beeing kind of same-y toward the end a lot of levels felt very similar to other levels, it might need new mechanics toward later level or just different art to change the mood. Cool game, played to the end.

Did you work alone, or as part of a group? (If in a group, list their names)
yeah I worked alone.

Disclose if you used any public domain assets or not.
I did not use any assets that were not from me.

I like the idea maybe with a bit more polish it would be a great game I feel like when the player dies adding an input buffer on respawn so the player can not dash into a fire as soon as spawned in would be cool also adding a death animation maybe a roasted marshmallow doing a Mario like death or something, last thing some of the music is quite good but the loops are very noticeable and harsh maybe add a fade in/out but all in all great work.

(ps some of the times the dash did not break the blocks but the double jump helped me out a lot :)  )

A fun platformer that kept me going until the end. Excellent variety of music tracks, though some sfx would have been nice to add that extra immersion depth. The art was good as well. As for the theme… I don’t know what part of guide was there, but it was a solid game that I enjoyed playing.

Cool game. It's been able to get me hooked for longer than I expected😄

but how closely is this tied to the jam's theme....?

It's really cute and controls really well! Good game 🙂 But I don't see the relation with the theme either...

Nice game!

It was fun to play and the dash function was a nice addition too. Although I don't understand how this game fitts the theme "guide"?! Was your theme addition the other persons that you have to free?

All in all, nice platformer. 👍

The game was rly fun! The dash controls and the walking felt really nice. The music sounds like music i would make, so i don't know how others felt about it, but i actually liked it.

The movement is absolutely spectacular! I loved dashing and jumping around the stages.

One problem, which should be easily fixable, was the stage collisions not being very level (sometimes). Other than that, I liked it a lot!

As soon as I saw the thumbnail of the game, I thought to myself "that's amazing, why didn't I do that?!"

I love how it's a marshmallow too, trying not to get torched (I'd rather have marshmallows straight out of the bag instead of toasted marshmallows)

Small problem, I find the hotboxes/colliders are the player/fire are too big. Sometimes when I jump over, I die even though I didn't touch it.

Like the animation of the dude breaking out of the cage. Adding a bigger variety of obstacles would had been nice but for what it is, it's pretty decent : )
