I love this project! Its very cute, and as a dog lover, I also feel the love of my dog to put them in games. I sometimes found the movement a little bit to flowy, i think that is partially due to me being used to games like Marios early games. Good job!

Ahhhhh, I loved the aesthetics so much..!!! The colour palette is so calming and pleasing to look at, and the art is so adorable (Dany's pixel likeness and the map~~)! I also loved that there are no incredibly punishing penalties if we fail the jump or get killed by an enemy, but instead, we're free to go about it in a more relaxed way! The jumping did take a bit of getting used to, but it's part of the fun!
As a side note, I love the fact that you both worked on the game as a couple and were inspired by your IRL Dany, that is super adorable~ I'd say you did a brilliant job in your first game ever, congratulations on it!! Yes, the game development journey really is difficult, but like you say, it's also very exciting - and rewarding! I'll be supporting both of you and am really looking forward to what wonders you create in the future! <3

2D Or Not 2DCute game! though like other mentions, the jump mechanic is really difficult reminds me of playing a Cat Mario game, I thought it was intended.
There's a bug when the boss is defeated, the flying diapers(?) still appear.
But still, managed to beat all enemies and uncover the mysteries of the other world!
Super cute visuals, fun platformer with smooth controls and still a bit challenging, great submission!

The Serenity TrailAn enjoyable platformer with a cute aesthetic. The extremely floaty air control made precise jumps quite difficult, especially when dealing with springs or smaller platforms, but everything otherwise felt quite nice. Hope Dany got lots of treats for lending her likeness to this game!

Backstage Heroreally nice game, I like it when you hit an enemy the colors blinks, good work. would try out my game and rate it according.

Dimensional EscapeGame looks as sweet as a sugar loaded cookie !
The music is a bit too repetitive and droning for my taste and not being able to steer the character in the air made it a bit tricky to control.
Great job on submitting your game!

Bob's Building BonanzaI like the game, the music and the beautiful design, but I just find that the character's movement speed is a bit fast, and the jump is not high enough on some platforms, otherwise the game is really good , good luck for your next games :D

Life In 2 DimensionsI was able to make it through all 3 levels, and the overworld was a surprise when I saw it! Also very nice to have used your assets pack and there was some effort put into a story.
The controls were a little sensitive with using the KB, but I might try using a controller with it later to see if that would make it a bit easier to land the jumps.
Thanks for the game!

A Cat's LifeI like the main character design. The music felt so manic and confusing. And it would feel nice to be able to control the character mid air since it feels very stiff. Apart from that quite enjoyable.
