nice  hand drawn art! maybe it could have been more enjoyable for me if the jump and the speed were stronger...

Submitted

neat and cute artstyle, i do wish there were some audio/music though

Submitted

its a cute game, wouldve liked some added obstacles as i traversed through the level

Submitted

Very cute

I loved the hand-drawn art style, it's so simple and cute! The cat is adorable. The character controller is spot-on as well; it's very simple but feels precise and pleasing to use. I didn't see any bugs during my playthrough!

The only piece of feedback I have is that I often found myself taking a "leap of faith" to jump to platforms I couldn't see yet. This was especially tricky in the cat level when heading down. It might be cool if the camera could pan just a little bit to reveal the path ahead. Otherwise, it's a really well-made and charming little game!

Art is currently competing with only one other game I've seen so far. Absolutely phenomenal. I would rate it over 5 stars just for the animations.

Controls were snappy and easy to use.

Only 3 pieces of feedback

1) Lacking audio. I would have loved some comfy background music

2) Larger view. On the 2nd painting I had to make one or two leap of faith because I could not see the next platform.

3) Related to 2; Checkpoint system. I never got to the 3rd painting because I am bad at platformers and kept getting stuck with one specific jump, or missing a jump I could not see until after I committed.

Art was really good, cool concept as well!

The art was fantastic! The bird level was my favorite, some real solid flying sections there.

Submitted

Love the fish art style and animation! Would be cool to see it taken further and incorporated into the whole game. 

Submitted

Not bad, but the controls in the fish section are kinda weird. The art is very cool.

Submitted

Lovely visuals, I especially like the cat's jump animation. I found that it was possible to cheese most of the fish level by just holding down spacebar and some of the platforming was a little annoying but overall nice package.

Submitted

Love the aesthetic and art. 

Submitted

Nice artwork, the bird level was the most fun. In the fish level, the fish needed some more upward push.

Submitted

Cool concept!

Submitted

I think I see the idea, but couldn't find playability very clear. Good concept.

Submitted

Your artwork is very cute. I also liked how you interpreted the theme. Keep it up!

Submitted

Cool art

Submitted

Great art. I feel like I'm playing a video game in a child's coloring book.

The controls for the fish felt a little off, I would have liked to be able to hold space to swim upwards, or otherwise keep swimming upwards whenever I tapped space. It felt like I had to wait for a cooldown before I could press space again and have it work. The bird level was fun! Some way to show how much flight time you have left could be a good addition to give the player some feedback. I also mistakenly believed the long vertical white lines in the fish level were fishing line, and tried to avoid touching them until I had to swim through one.  Thanks for making this!
