The splat that gets left behind when you die amuses me to no end.
it's a cute little game with great style and music! Very well done! :)
Very polished! The global leaderboard is also a nice touch.
JUICE!!! Very juicy game. Love the skin editor, great work in 96 hours!
Having a character creation in a jam game is very impressive! The game itself is simple and it feels very polished. There is some risk reward mechanic with scaling which i enjoyed. Only thing which bothered me is the small map. I got caught by a sawblade very easily after collecting 4 pearls, this fells a bit frustrating, because sometimes i have no way to avoid it. Despite that i think you did an amazing job. Keep it up!
Very impressive game! It manages to be a very simple concept that is fun and engaging, and the polish puts it over the top.
Really nice game! You just need to watch out for the deadly middle spawn blades.
Overall, a great game.
Very fun and good looking game to play repeatedly. One problem I found was that sometimes I would return the pearls and die at the same time if there was a saw in the middle and if that happened you would only get some of the points added from returning them, otherwise I really enjoyed the game!
Hey JigglyJello!
Thanks for playing the game and for the bug report. The issue has been fixed and as soon as we can upload a new build here it won't be a problem anymore! 😁
The amount of polish is awesome!
I like the art and polish, combined with satisfying gameplay!
The art and game flow are really complete and fancy; like them! This is very polished!
Great job! Simple and easy to understand gameplay loop, nicely polished, addictive!
I am 11th :)
Very polished and satisfying game, AMAZING !
Having character customisation, a leaderboard, AND an interactive tutorial on a jam game is wild. Fun game that really evokes that "just one more try" feeling although I personally wished the character was just a little less slippery. But overall, really awesome game!
Really amazing stuff! This doesn't feel like a game jam game... it like an actual full blown game! The controls are nicely tuned, the character customization is a nice feature, there's even a leaderboard, and the entire game feels really polished.
wow, that move squash and stretch feels AMAZING, the controls are nice and buttery smooth. Very fun
SUPER impressive work here! The character creator and vfx was a very surprising amount of polish, and then there's a functioning online leader-board on top of that!
Mechanically I really like the game as well, balancing the risk reward of a larger body and more saws with being significantly quicker at building score is a great dynamic. The saws are sometimes a bit tricky to see coming as they're spawning in but I'll chalk that up to a skill issue on my part aha.
Great job to the whole team, fantastic entry!
This is a super cute game!! Definitely my favorite part is customizing my little blob guy. The very brief tutorial is nice. I didn't know you were able to grab multiple orbs until a bit later on but I actually really like that mechanic. It's risk reward and it adds that right amount of depth an arcade game needs. Good entry!!
Fun little game! I'm impressed that you've made character customization! The game is simple, but hard to master due to speed and inertia of the character. I found that you can go through the saw before it finishes its spawning animation if you are fast enough, which was a bit unexpected. However, the best score I managed to achieve is only 2500 T_T
