Interesting take - I wasn't expecting this.

Im not usually a fan of these sort of games but I had fun playing through a few of the levels! It was very satisfying to complete a level due to how hard the game is. I will admit it feels like a sort of safe way to do the theme, but its effective and I think it makes for a good game

haha I don't think I've love-hated a game like this in a long time. I wish I could have recorded my reaction when I booted it up and immediately realized I was in for a QWOP-style time.  I might have uttered the line "oh no, please no!" Also, I'm not sure if the music distorting at the end actually happened or if that was just my mental state after dying well over a hundred times.

Anyway, this is my way of saying really good job, no joke. You made me laugh, you made me cry, and you made me exclaim "yussss!" when I finally beat a level that was taking me forever. Of the over 60 games I've played for this jam I've spent the most on this one.  And a special shout out to the music.

I just wish I could have given Creamy McStuvins the last ride he deserved.

Oh man, I wish I could see everyone's reactions! The few I've seen had me in stitches laughing. The music does distort, it's not just in your head, unless I am also in your head.

I'm really bad at this haha.  But this is cool.  Everything worked really solidly, even if I wasn't good at it, and the presentation was great!  Heck, there are even sound settings.  Who puts multiple sound settings in a jam game?  My only criticism is my ability to play the game lol.

Keep up the great work! =)

Developer

Haha glad you like it! I also am really bad at this game, so much that i'm having trouble recording a video cause i can't complete levels lol!

Man!! That's a great idea and good execution.
Congrats =)

Great Concept, rellay liked it. Controls definitely take some time to get used to tough.

Submitted(+2)

Enjoyed this one! Couldn't manage to control my landing on level three but there's a solid concept here

Submitted(+2)

Nice game! Was quite tricky to control, but you can get used to it quite quickly. Unfortunately, I couldn't get past level 3

Submitted(+2)

Interesting concept! A bit more leniency on the difficulty could be done but otherwise very nice game!

Submitted(+2)

I know i cant sleep at night knowing  i killed winnie the pooh a hundred times. :< Nice work!

This game is wild! I movement takes a while to get used to, but it's super satisfying once you get it down. Just a heads up, the audio doesn't adjust until you select "Play".

Developer

yup, the sound stuff was my fault.  Was fiddling with sound near due time and couldn't figure out how to update a currently playing track in time.  Oof. Thanks for playing!

Wow I love this game, the physics based movements are a mess and I love it!
Btw, I think I found some insane speedrunning techniques lol: https://imgur.com/EAtxrKt

Developer

Thanks for playing our game! I was wondering if someone would pick up on that technique, if someone (far more talented than myself, I suck at this game) could figure out how to fly around a level while fighting gravity like this.

Submitted(+2)

Lol I'm a boss at flying exploit in games in general x) It's my obsession

Developer(+1)

That is the forbidden jellyfish technique. It is blasphemy against the unicycle.

I am not happy with my experience, 10/10

Developer(+1)

I sincerely apologize lol, thanks for hating it :P

Developer(+1)

This is the best worst comment ever, thanks for playing our game!

Submitted(+3)

That is difficult!! Well executed visuals and gameplay. Physics-based controls can be hard to make fun but your team did a good job. I suck at these games so I didn't get far but I enjoyed the challenge.

Developer(+1)

Thanks, we worked a *while* on getting those physics to feel decent

Submitted(+3)

Creative concept! The graphics are fun and colorful. Its very challenging. It took me a while to figure out how to keep the guy up straight. Nicely done!
