How does your game fit the theme?
Classic game where you run away from the enemy but now you're the enemy, it's also the opposite of the saying "when pigs can fly", and also, the pig is pursuing the butcher rather than the other way round, I guess you could say I out-pigged myself :)

excellent pixel art, I'm a sucker for good pixel art (if my own game didn't give that away). the jump and the fly was a bit rough to do reliably, maybe consider a bit of float time at the apex of the jump. Also if you holding the jump button and hit up you don't fly

Submitted

Really well executed game. I like the aesthetics of the game too.

Very hard, but rewarding to master. Very well made! I love the presentation and take on the theme, it's like an inverse supermeatboy

Submitted

It's brutally hard and very well made for the short deadline. Considering how much you die I think it would be better if the level restarted instantly. Not sure how well it fit the theme tho still very enjoyable

Submitted

Pretty good for what it is! I really like the countdown sound :))

Submitted

Pretty good game, fun and fast-paced. I would suggest making the bacon a seperate button to make the game easier to control.

Submitted

Very fun little game that has a great vibe. Enjoyed how polished and tight the movement felt. Very speedy and that makes it a challenge. The sounds feel very appropriate too!

Submitted

The flying, movement, and animation is super fun and snappy! The gameplay is like flappy bird on hard mode -- quite fun. The main character design is pretty cool too! Checkpoints would be nice, but all-round good job!

Submitted

Great game! Even though it is very polished, I found it quite hard to use the jetpack. Maybe you should decrease the player's gravity scale. Anyways, Nice game, I love the art!

Submitted

What a nicely polished game! Love the sound effects and hub.

Great game but: camera should show forward of the pig! Very polished and pretty. Also not sure about how I feel with the controls. Maybe because of my space bar, but it wasn't always easy to use the bacon jetpack.

unfortunately i'm not much of a platformer person, so i can't give any rating on the levels. and also, it wasn't too immediately clear to me i had to DOUBLE PRESS the up button to fly. i think the name should have been "when pigs fly", because at first i didn't see what was role-reversing about this beside the pig getting the butcher, until i saw your reasoning on this page.

it was very polished though, and i think if i were into platformers more i would have enjoyed this.

This is crazy difficult! I like the art and difficultly, the snappy movement is fun as well. It would be nice if there was some way you could make the text more legible or to have the tutorial give non pixelated popups. I had to stop and adjust my camera to read it properly. I'd love to see a developer run of all the levels if you happen to record one

Submitted

Nice game! The concept is good but I think the character moves/falls a bit too quickly in the air, and it makes it way too easy to run into death zones.

Otherwise though, I enjoyed it!

It's a really nice game. I love the pixel art and the music. Level 2 is easier than level 1, so I would swap those two, and the fall speed is a bit fast.

Submitted

Neat theming and art, you polished this nicely!

I enjoyed the concept but had a lot of trouble with the difficulty - if you work on this in the future here are some thoughts!

  • easier level 1, it took me a long time to get through
  • possibly adjust the fall speed for more air control
  • add a timer UI to show how long until the butcher outraces you?

Game look great and i love the idea, which i think could be more reinforced in game play, game is also hard and i think that it comes to very fast gravity which doesnt leave room to fail. Problem could be fixed by having button for flying on space and for jumping on W, or you could speed of player and butcher smaller and increase it more and more in later levels. Very well crafted game with great graphics, but slightly to hard for me. :)
