Nice work, getting over the walls was satisfying thanks to the confetti, though the tighter jumps kind of slowed things to a crawl due to not having enough time to dive and swim up
I love how well this works, surprisingly fun little game! Everything from the little boost when you launch to the particles and sound effects for clearing a jump to the music being an absolute banger worked together to just really make this a very enjoyable jam entry! Good stuff!
Got to 37, but by that point, I had messed up too many in a row - aw carp!
I loved the music and the use of "scales" literally! I got into the groove with jumping over the dams, at one point I tried bunny hopping and it only slowed me down, I think advanced movement tech would have been a really fun add. Overall great project! Feel free to rate mine as well!
Really fun idea!
- Having the carp lose when you hit a wall would gamify it a bit more
- It would have been neat to use A and D to swim faster, like a flapping motion, then W and S to go up and down. Throw some rotation in there and you've got a whole lot more dynamic movement going on!
I got 42, fun game! The fish sprite is funny :)
Music is great, love the style.
Fantastic sound effects, I had a thrilling time - I was really falling behind at 50 but barely became a dragon. Really love the realistic movement! Fellow carp games unite!!
Love the music :)
Fun game!!
