Oh really nice! Love the particles, love the left/right flip animation Paper Mario style, love the silly skelly character, love the fact it's hard but simple in the design, love the art.
For me one of the best entry in this jam.
Well done!
Great game! So many neat little touches like the end screen and menu. Great use of particles I love how the player exploded into bones when they died. The platforms really did feel unstable. Only thing I would recommend is a more clear goal for the player, show the score bigger or something so we can see what we are working towards. Keep it up!
I really love the art style, it’s both charming and visually appealing. The gameplay concept is simple but works like a charm. I really like the end screen, it's super crative. Overall, great job!
Game feel was great! I didn't realize I had to shoot the glowy squid things at first.
Very impressive and well-made for a first game jam submission. Well done!
This is a tricky one, but fun, nice graphics (cute designs after my own heart!) and lots of fun polish like the title screen and the death screen as well. Good job!
It's a hard game, but it is very well-made. Congrats on your first jam submission and your first game made on itch.io!
nice game!
It feels very nice to play. Great job!
Wow, that was hard.
I really enjoyed the UI elements and how even that was interactive, very nice.
One of the best out of everything I've seen. Lets get this to steam, google~ and beyond!
Now that's unstable =D
The art is really good! Congrats!
An interesting way of putting cute colorful birds and a cartoon skeleton together.
The way how one is going back to the main menu with this cartoon skeleton after loosing the level was creative.
In the main menu: it is very pleasant to look at how the bird can let the wall (or ground?) dissappear.
Overall a nice charming mini game, nice greetings. :)
Great game.
Graphics and mechanics are fun!
The objective and story might help set a bit of context.
Cheers!
I definitely spent too long on the art and ran out of time to do the ... you know, important/actual gameplay bits like a tutorial and settings and leaderboard and intro. Lesson learned (hopefully).
A skeleton trapped in a watery grave, his only way out is with the help of his friends the birds. It’s not all that easy though as he soon discovers a fiery pit awaiting him outside of his prison. There is only one way out. Those unstable platforms hanging by a thread. But the birds are here to help. This is a beautifully visual and fun mechanical game. I like the title screen and custom mouse pointer. The fact that you can play with the bones is a nice touch. The game is a bit hard to get the hang of. The graphics are polished really well. As for originality not much going on, on the platformer side of things but oh man the physics adds some innovation to the game with the just a little bird keeping you from falling into the fire. I would have at least like to have this on mobile but great game dude. Well done.
Haha, I love this. Someone above mentioned a lack of story, but looks like you got my back.
Was definitely me experimenting with a bunch of things and I think it shows with the mix of somewhat disconnected ideas and mechanics between scenes, but I learned a bunch so it was worth it.
Thanks for taking so much time on your response, I really appreciate it!
Very fun and addictive game to play ! :D
Enjoyed playing, so unstable ! <3
Great job !
So creative! 5 stars for innovation and theme :) I can tell you have an awesome grasp on game design and presentation. If I were to have one complaint it's that those darn jellyfish can shoot me from under the platform and I can't shoot them back lol, the jerks!
A well-made game that provides a lot of enjoyment. The concept is unique and well-executed.
Art and physics work well together combining retro vibes with a fresh perspective. Definitely follows the theme. Good job!
Wow I still dont know exactly what I played but that was a great experience you got quite a high rating from me :)
