sup, there is a spinoff of this game!

Bro CAN Jump by helodude (itch.io)

( i know, very creative name )

Developer

breaking news everyone! update 0.2 is out!

Developer

25th place....not bad for my first completed game jam experience :P

Developer

thank you all for playing this game, it means a lot to me :)

Finished it a few times. Very short (but sweet!) I liked the precision challenges (though I found that some later levels were easier than some of the ones that came before them), wished the portals were used more! It also would've been nice to see more consistency with the thickness of each line on the objects and other sprites since the game is already pretty simple graphically. I found a glitch where if you're quick enough when starting the game, because the music takes a bit to start (and because the song restarts every time you complete a level, which should be fixed) you can have it play twice.

thanks! i would love to integrate portals more in updates!

maybe i can use the portals in a level with room based camera movement?

Developer

oh, and that sound  glitch! that actually happend to me once!

Submitted

Clever work around of making a platformer with only two buttons where you can't jump over anything. If you make a mistake, just die to return to the start of the level :).  Had to stop at level two because the precision required for jumping from one spring to the other was just not working for me.

I gave up on the itch version and played it on GD games, which worked. Nice game and sound track was really enjoyable.

Nice work!

Wish there was a  bit more control in the air but I liked it and managed to finish it.

Developer

thanks!

Developer

thank you all for the nice comments, it really makes my heart warm :)

Very good, but I think the leap in difficulty between level 2 and 3 is a little too much (but that might be my skill issue!). Great game, well executed.

thanks a very much!

Sometimes a level is harder than the following one though. Other than that, It's a very nice game.

thanks!

thanks!

Really fun and challenging game. I like it. The slipperiness of the movement makes aiming hard but I did manage it.

Developer

thanks!

This was quite fun to play! But I feel like it would've helped if the music didn't refresh every time you enter a new level.

Developer(+1)

ok! will fix that!

Submitted

Yeah!! Cool and interesting. I do like the slippery effect in player. It makes it a little harder but funny. I reached the end!! ^^

Developer

thanks!

Developer

glad to hear you like it!

Submitted

man.. this was so good...

Developer

broo thank you soo much!


Submitted

Decent platformer, although the controls are a little to slippery, making some of the platforming  a little annoying to do.

Developer

ok, will fix that in a later update!

I would recommend making the player stop instantly after the player stops holding a key.

Developer

ok!

Developer (1 edit)

also, if the game is not working, just refresh the page until it works!

(also, if you get softlocked, just do the same thing!)
