Superb graphics and animation, really liked how the idle pose looks at the player. Also enjoyed the relaxing mood it creates.
But...
The issue for me was the relaxing mood conflicts with the mission of finding your lost child. Also taking detours to collect fruit while your child is missing... :)
Changing the goal to collect fruit to feed your cub/family would solve all this.
An option to run would also be appreciated.
😮 now that you mention it… maybe she is used to her cub going missing? xD
tbh, I didn’t notice that mood conflict until now. Thanks for pointing that out! Also I liked your suggestion :)
Thanks a lot for playing and for your feedback! 🧡
The fact of not dying makes the game quite relaxing and pleasant to go through, the musics help well too, a little more variety in the scenery would have been perfect but it's just a detail, nice work !
I’m glad to hear! We wanted to go for a more peaceful mood, just wandering through the savana. And yes, there’s so much more that we can add to the visuals - we plan on keep updating the project!
Thanks for the feedback! I’m a huge fan of your work 💛
Tomando a liberdade de comentar em português pois GUARÁ 200 <3. Muito lindo o jogo, parabéns à equipe!!!!
Uhuuuul hahahah valeu, cara!! Gostamos demais do seu jogo também! Só brasileiro mandando demais nessa Jam kkkk
Muito bom o jogo, parabéns aos participantes :)
Está tudo muito bem feito e combinando.
A parte que mais me chamou a atenção foi essa troca de cores, combinou demais para indicar se estava dia ou noite. Nossa, muito bem utilizado haha.
Que bom que curtiu 🧡
Também adorei o resultado da troca de cores! raychof mandou bem demais nisso! hahah
Valeuzão por jogar e pelo retorno! :3
This game is so polished!
I love that you don't die when you fall, you only discover new secret areas. And it isn't so bad to get back on the path. There's a lesson in this game- you can always move forward.
Love the maned wolf's sprites long legs!! And the music and palette made each level so unique. The shadow foreground mechanic is wonderful too.
Over here we like to say: good games have no fall damage! hahaha. It’s just so good jump high to fall on your feet, isn’t it?
We’re really happy that you liked it that much! Thanks so much for playing and the feedback!
That's a beautiful little game! It's actually a good example to learn from. Basically you have just a simple movement and jump mechanic, but everything else is really nice, from the music to the graphics, it's just a pleasure to play. I will definitely try to learn from it, concentrating on what's really important for the game. In this case that was surely the visuals and the music! Well done!
I can't say how happy we are to read such a comment! We tried to focus on a simple game for the jam with a solid base. Some other features couldn't be implemented because of the time, but the feeling we want to convey is already there.
Thanks for playing and the feedback!
Um belíssimo jogo e uma boa escolha musical! Me fez recordar do passado e sentir a pureza de se aventurar no desconhecido de um jogo. Obrigado por criarem essa experiência incrível. Parabéns a todos os desenvolvedores.
Poxa, obrigada! Estávamos sem musicistas no time e ficamos preocupados, já que a experiência exigiu bastante da música. Fico feliz que curtiu 😄
Tô é orgulhosa da presença BR nessa jam! 💛💚
Sem dúvida, sinto muito orgulho de nós BR aqui na jam 💚 💛
Podem contar comigo se numa próxima jam precisarem de alguém pro áudio.
Aaaaa que maravilha!! Bora sim, vai ser massa 😁😁😁
The art is so gorgeous from the sprites to the palette (and that cover art!!!). Amazing job! Also loved the little touches like the dithering fades but I feel like the camera movement with parallax backgrounds takes away from the Gameboy-ness. Overall I really enjoyed this game!
Hey starlit, thank you so much for the kind words! I felt that too about the camera and parallax, but we ran out of time and didn’t really know how to achieve a more retro effect to that (I find that very ironic, since it should be simpler 😆)
Love the aesthethic!
And I love you. Thanks for playing!
Very fun simple platformer with great graphics. You really have some fantastic environments and I love the different color palettes. I also like the hidden areas and collectables. I'd be interested to see what other types of mechanics could be included.
Awww thank you so much for the feedback, and for playing through the end! 🧡
We’re already discussing what will come next, and we really want to keep this kind of peaceful and rewarding experience :)
Very well made. Everything fits together really well and creates a nice image. Throughout the game I was completely immersed.
That’s so great to hear! Thanks for playing and the feedback 🧡
A really nice and chill platformer. Player movements feels very good to use. Colours and music made it very relaxing.
So glad you like it! Thanks for playing :D
Vou dar meu feedback em pt-br (xD creio que vcs nao liguem haha)
Primeiro, belo grafico, parabens pros dois ( pelo que entendi) que fizeram tudo, esta MUITO lindo.
Minha primeira critica eh a questao das 4 cores, creio que tem que se manter em 4 cores pelo jogo todo, a decisao artistica de mudar a palleta por fase eh bonita mas tira um pouco da sensacao de Game Boy.
A segunda critica eh quanto ao lobo, esta um pouco dificil de ver ele, principalmente em partes do underground, talvez um contorno tivesse resolvido isso xD. As partes do underground estavam dificeis de ver mas quando vc se acostuma vai.
A ultima critica eh quanto a camera, em alguns momentos, principalmente quando vc erra um pulo, ela meio que demora muito pra focar no personagem. =P
So estou criticando pq eu joguei ate o fim e gostei <3 parabens pra equipe toda! \o/
(e desculpa a falta de acentos, estou digitando de um teclado nao pt-br xD)
Ei Roberto! valeu pelo feedback!! (e em pt-br é bem melhor! hehehe)
então! pelo que a gente viu o esquema é só mostrar 4 cores simultaneamente, podendo mudar se manter a regra. Pokémon mesmo rolava isso, cada cidade e algumas rotas tinham suas próprias cores 😆
e siiiim, a gente queria fazer esse contorno! mas rolou umas questões técnicas no final e decidimos deixar pra depois da jam. O mesmo pra câmera! tamo engatinhando nessas nuances de plataformer hahaha
Mas valeu mesmo! Fico feliz que curtiu o passeio 🧡
cara que sensação boa que esse jogo causa, a musica, as cores, a velocidade da gameplay a ambientação no geral é maravilhosa dmss
o level design foi muito bem feito eu me senti muito recompensado explorando, esse é um jogo lindo em todos os aspectos, tu ta de parabens
Valeu, cara! Obrigado mesmo pelos elogios! Queremos finalizar o jogo introduzindo mais elementos depois da jam, mas ficamos bem felizes em como ele está agora
I absolutely love the color palettes you used here, always mantaining the 4 colors rule, the level design is sometimes confusing but in the end works really well. the music is very relaxing and the sprites also good. i'm impressed! ^^
Aww, thanks for playing and for the feedback! We loved so many things in your game, is really beautiful
About the level design, what confused you? I would love more details
Of course!
Here i got confused by the platform on the left. i caught the apple above the secret passage but I returned without realizing that there was a passage way, my mind just kept that there were platforms to the left and put the automatic pilot, at the end I was a little while circling
In this other area the same thing happens, the platforms simply caught my attention more than the corner that shows the secret passage, and as a consequence I was walking around for a while.
Obviously I am not an expert and I only take my way of playing video games as a reference, I honestly think it is a great game and of course it has great things in the level design, like showing the player at the beginning of the second level that there will be secret walls in that subtle way, or the attempt to guide the player with the fruits. I find them great examples of level design
Really cool setting. nice palette and use of dithering. Very relaxed game :)
Thank you so much! Glad you liked it :D
Adorei a paleta de cores que vocês usaram no jogo deixou o visual bem agradável, acompanhado de uma boa jogabilidade. Fico muito feliz em ver ótimos trabalhos feitos por devs brasileiros. Meus parabéns :D
Valeu por jogar e pelos elogios, cara!! Gostei demais do seu jogo também! Os brasileiros estão mandando muito nessa Jam hahahah
Gosto muito de acompanhar os jogos feitos pelos brasileiros! É muito gratificante ver como existem pessoas talentosas no Brasil!
I love the long legged little dude! Also that box art is just perfection, way to go the extra mile!
I’m glad you meet her! in Brazil the maned wolf is called “Lobo-guará” and the fruits are -seriously- called “fruta-do-lobo / wolf fruit” since it’s the species’ favorite food.
And thanks 💛! Always wanted to paint a box art, specially in retro-style!
Eu adorei o visual, é incrível! Um verdadeiro trabalho de arte. Eu acompanhei alguns posts no Twitter e fique muito interessado no jogo.
Senti falta de um desafio maior no jogo. Até o ponto que joguei não vi inimigos ou mais obstáculos a serem enfrentados, seria excelente ter numa pegada de "Rei Leão" de Snes e outros jogos semelhantes.
Ahahah valeeeu! Os artistas da equipe vão ficar felizões ao ler isso 🧡
Em relação ao desafio do jogo, a gente acabou indo na pegada de walking simulators. Algo mais contemplativo e de exploração sabe? Mas falando de Rei Leão, a gente tinha e tem a vontade de incluir um “latido” no jogo pra adicionar mais uma camada de interação, e latir pra interagir com outros animais e tals. Coisas que não deram tempo hahaha.
Obrigado por jogar e pelo retorno!
Beautiful sprite work, and wonderful use of the different color palettes. Everything is so peaceful.
Excellent game, congrats!
Glad you liked and thanks for playing!
