I like the aesthetic and music of this game, it's very fitting with the theme.

In terms of the platforming, I noticed there were many times where the character had to do "trust falls" or trial & error to get past certain areas (i.e., falling down the hole and landing on the ground without spikes).  I wouldn't mind this as much if there was a more convenient checkpoint or an faster way to quickly respawn on the level so I can attempt again (instead of having to click a button to restart each time).  I noticed one of the enemies acted like a spike (if the character jumped on top of the enemy, the character would die).  I'm not sure if this was intentional. 

I ended up not being able to get past the narrow jump over spikes "underground" after falling down the hole, since I'm not great at platforming haha.

Overall, I think this game has a lot of potential!  I personally would appreciate having more checkpoints or allowing the player to quickly iterate through attempts, so trial & error isn't as punishing.  I am really terrible at platforming games though, so I can totally understand if this game is targeting a different type of player than me.

This is a nice little game. The graphics were simple, but still done well for the GameBoy limitation. Nice job!

Developer

Thank you so much! :]

No Mac or Linux versions :(

For best results, make sure you upload an HTML5 version - you won't get many plays otherwise

Developer

I'll try:( i still Dunno how to export to HTML5 nor Mac and Linux:(( I'll try to port my games to Mac and Linux or HTML5 soon:)

Hey it’s pretty simple. Plenty of docs on the official page about that. The HTML5 export is super easy actually

I like this retro gameboy graphics.. takes me back! Oh boy, some of the spikes are punishing, once I got past the spikes there is an unmakeable jump? Congrats on your first submission, well done. :)
