Your download file should say something other than "v1.1.zip"  ;) Game page is very good. Needs a little more contrast on the text verse the background. I love the opening story - very cute. When I downloaded and ran the game, I tried on both keyboard and controller, but the "SWIFT + W" was not working for me so I couldn't get very far in the game. I do love the 8-bit style platformer graphics and think this would be a super fun game!

A very cute, very fun platformer! The visuals were great, and it was just fun to move around!

I was a little confused by the level changing - I got it eventually, but it would be nice to have the camera pan to the area where the level changes e.g. to show a new platform appearing that lets you exit back to the sunflower from the double jump room.

Wow! Excellent job. What a cozy little experience. This is such a flavorful game for being so short - I love the touches like the mouse's little bedroom. The art and music are gorgeous, too.

I would die for Smol, this is adorable, I love the visuals and the audio and it feels very polished and satisfying to play. 

in the time frame its very impressive!

Developer

Our whole team agrees! However, Smol would like us all to thrive or else they’d have no people to cook soup for. 

Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback!

Already finished? I was hoping to play a few more levels and get more power ups! I was very surprised to find metroidvania dynamics in a game of this jam! I loved it very much!

The setting and the story, however simple, were very successful.

As for the soundtrack, at first I thought it wasn't there but then it turned out to be beautiful!

Thanks for this little gem of a game!

Developer

thank you so much for the feedback!! We would have loved to have made more levels, certainly had lots of ideas, but as it was our first time making any type of game we decided to scope it back and make it “smol” ;) 

We’re so glad you enjoyed it!

I loved the cute visuals and witchy aesthetic. The music was very well done as well. Great gameplay. I had a lot of fun. Loved the ending cutscene.

Thanks for submitting this!

I streamed this in a Discord and we all agreed the visuals are absolutely wonderful. The platforming is also super tight controlling and I really enjoyed that.

Developer

thank you so much! Our team is stoked that you and your discord chat enjoyed it. We’ve received lots of different feedback regarding the controls so we appreciate the comment :)

So cute! The visual, audio, and level designs were standouts, particularly the jump sound. Would love to see this expanded!

Developer

Thank you so much! Our team tried real hard to nail every aspect so we’re glad you enjoyed it! 

We definitely have ideas of what we could improve and expand on so maybe one day we will!

Such a cute game. love the smol scale musroom guy. his little "hip" jump sound was just adorable . Art was on point and the platforming mechanic was very smooth. Great work

This was an amazying game! Very atmospheric and pretty! good job team! Love the intro too :)

Developer

Thanks heaps for taking time to play our game and for your feedback!

I love the intro and there was a lot of prob in the background. It was a little hard to control and I think I was lost but somehow find everything and finished the game.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it!
