Hi there! I enjoyed playing your game though I will say it was more difficult than I expected. I felt like this game had a lot of personality and I enjoyed finding the smiley face off to the left. The space bar jumping forward definitely threw me off and led me to a few unintentional deaths before getting the hand of it and the movement animations tending to bob the character up and down quite a bit and could be hard follow. Ultimately it was a difficult but fun game with a lot of personality. Thank you!

Developer

Thank you ! I would try to make it easier.

Not bad for a first attempt😀!

Gameplay
The controls were a little tricky. Especially since the jumping went sideways instead of up which I would expect. After that I got a little further but not very far either. It is a difficult game 😅. 

I did go to the left to see the smiley face. Don't know if this was meant as an Easter egg but still nice 😁.

Graphics
Self made is always a positive point. And it all looked cheerful and colourful.

Audio
Simple but nice tune. And also some sound effects as well.

Theme
The increase and decrease is nice thought of for enhance.

Devlog
Glad you made one with some insights on how and what. 

Good first try and keep it up 💪 🙂!

The game's pretty rough around teh edges but when I wasn't dying due to the janky physics I was having a good time; trying to figure out what size you needed to be at and what potion to be carrying with you was a fun puzzle to solve and I enjoyed it a good bit', good job'

Developer

Thank you ! I’m happy you liked the game. I would try to improve the physics.

I was able to get past the first jump! but not long after, i hit the double patches of spikes preceded by two red potions. I couldn't figure out how to get past that at all and the checkpoint was far enough back that it was just starting to feel tedious. I did enjoy the smiley face at the start! 

Developer

Little hint: to pass the first spikes, you have to be the medium size and to pass the seconds, you have to be the large size.

Developer

Cool that you like the idea.

I wasn't able to get past the first jump but I did go backwards and see that smiley boi

At the first jump, you have to use two potions to be larger. There is a bug that makes you use a potion close to another, it disappears. But, paying attention, you will be able to make the first jump.

I'll give it another crack
