I love the level design, btw overall gameplay was really good <3

Submitted

Very basic platformer, but with a nice level design. There is some lagging, maybe due to large scene?

DeveloperSubmitted

I think you're right that lagging is due to large screen. Sorry you had to experience that :( but I'm glad you enjoyed the level design!

Submitted

Nice game!

You can jump on the walls with some practice (which added a fun self challenge as I progressed through the game)

Really cool ending!!!

DeveloperSubmitted

Glad you enjoyed the ending! The jumping up on the wall definitely wasn't intended, but I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

Submitted

So cute. Nice relaxing game, not too difficult. Good vibes all around. Good job!!

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you! :D

Submitted

Simple and cute game, I've used some wall climbing (bug?feature?) using gaps between tiles. Good job

DeveloperSubmitted

Haha, the gap between tiles are... erm... definitely the interpretation of the theme, and not an unintended bug! *sweating nervously* Anyways, thanks for playing :)

Submitted

Fun AND educational! - I was today years old when I found out what I found out at the end of this game 😂 (Don't want to give any spoilers if people see this before playing!) 

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you for playing! And thanks for not spoiling the ending ;)

Submitted

Nice game, i really liked the music, the ending was very fun.

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you, glad you enjoyed the ending and the music :)

Submitted

Nice and simple platforming game. The ending gave me a laugh haha!

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you for playing! :D

Submitted

Fun to play. Nice take on platforming. I saved myself from dying a few times by wall jumping (clipping into the wall and then jumping) which I doubt is intentional, but sometimes these unexpected bugs make the game more fun. I could picture someone speedrunning this game.

DeveloperSubmitted

Haha, that part is definitely not intentional xD still, I glad you enjoyed the, ahem, ""feature"". Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Cute and fun. Liking how platforms spell messages. The ending reference made me smile. Would like to see more levels post jam.

DeveloperSubmitted

I'm glad you liked the messages. And I'm happy I was able to bring a smile to your face :D

Submitted

Smooth and simple game with a neat ending

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you, glad you enjoyed the ending!

Submitted

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Submitted

very simple consept but loved the ending

DeveloperSubmitted

I'm glad you liked the ending! :)

Submitted

A simple concept that works well. Worth a quick play. Nice job!

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you for playing! :D

Submitted

Cute game, loved the twist ending. The music was pretty grating after a while tbh, it would be nice if the music changed for the different sections. I also think it would be cool if the rolling animation only played while you were rolling.

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

Thank you for the detailed feedback! I agree that the music could be irritating (it's a 15sec loop after all). I will keep what you said in mind as I develop my next game :D

Submitted

Cute platformer and rolling animation. Learned that roly polys are crustaceans!

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you for playing! I didn't know they are crustaceans either until I started the research for this game. xD

Submitted

Nice and fun game :) I loved the end, so funny :3

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

Thank you for playing our team's game! Glad you liked the ending :3

Submitted

What a charming funny game. Loved the funny conversation at the end and the messages carved into the level design :) The jump mechanics are easier than normal platformer, but I guess that is intentional to make the game more "casual".

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you for playing the game! I'm happy that you liked the ending.

Submitted

Coming from the "Rate and Share" discord thread :)


Very cute game, your music reminded me of an Undertale song.

The checkpoints were very nice.

Great game!

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you for playing the game! The checkpoints were a late addition and I'm glad you liked it.

Submitted

Great... now I'm going to have that happy little catchy tune in my head all night! As others said, the floaty jumping is a bit less traditional to the genre, but I kind of liked it since it made the game a bit more forgiving. The game is definitely reminded me of my NES days as a kid. And, thanks for including checkpoints. I definitely used them!  Nicely done! 

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you for playing the game!
