there is a special quality to this experience... a strange beauty I cannot express but brought a tear to my eye... the vague character sprite, the background colour, the piano music... and that oddly satisfying launching mechanic... the uncertainty of where you'll land... Well Done!

Developer

Thank you for your kind words. I was surprised at how satisfying the controls would be. I wish I had more time to figure out all of the movement options.

Cute little game, but was pretty tough! Feel free to check out my submission too if you have the time!

Developer

For sure

Noooooo falling from such a height! I liked the way to moves and the peacefull music. Good job ! :)

Developer

Thanks for playing :) Falling can suck but you just need to keep trying. You will learn through failure.

I love the unique movement of the can. This game give me vibes of getting over it and chain together. But I feel like this game is too hard, or maybe make the early party easier and make it progressively harder. I cant get pass the arrow part even though I've been playing for like 15 minute.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. I actually have some shortcuts in place to reward understanding the movement better. For the conveyors, if you full kick right while holding up you can then go up and right again while in the air and skip most of that section. You would only really know to do this once you fully complete the section for real which was something I wanted to go for in this game. I probably should have pushed players to try these techs earlier though since it is a bit scary to risk it by that point. You are more than halfway there though, keep pushing and you will make it in no time :)

Great music and fun movement and level obstacles! I think the experience could have been enhanced with some can sound effects but that's the only nitpick I have. Great work team :))

Nice idea, interesting that everything was so big in relation to the can
