Here's the recording of my playtime and feedback.

Developer

Thanks so much for recording that! I might change some things like adding respawn points, health points, and making the map make more sense. Thanks again!

No problem!

Very cute game, the aesthetic is nice and the movement is good although some coyote time would be an improvement. I couldn't figure out how to finish the game but i got to the crown and then hit some switches or something. I think the level design was a bit harsh since you have very little time to react between screen transitions and you can end up falling a long way but overall it was a good submission :)

One of the best pico-8 games I've played out there. Its kind of hard to compete when using such a limited software, but this is a pretty good game, even if you don't take the software into consideration! Is getting the crown the end of the game or am I missing something?

Developer

Thank you so much! The crown is a collectable, spoilers for the end so only keep reading if you don't care Around the map in the castle side there's buttons, you have to click every button then go back to the original area where you'll eventually find a path  to a flower, --you pick up that flower then return to the first town in the castle area and keep going right, eventually you'll find a machine -there and by putting the flower into it (just walk into it) you win!



--Less spoiler version

Find every button (like the one at the first town in the castle) and then explore the whole map to find a flower, then find the machine and put the flower in it (walk into it) to win!


Hope that helps!

great game, loved the simple art and music, all upgrades felt great. though I didnt use the teleport much. had a lot of fun with the wall jump! also really liked your spin on the map, using just colored blocks and being able to track where you are was really nice!


two notes - 

1. Sometimes the transitions between 'scenes' is too quick. I would jump see the next scenes, and wouldnt have time to see what is on the other side, or would get killed by spikes because my momentum would carry me into the scene before I could react. Idk if there is a way to fix that but it was something I ran into a few times. 

2. would love to have some checkpoints or saves or something so the spawn isnt the exact same place each time. 

Developer

I don't think ill change anything post jam, but thank you for the feedback! I really just needed to put more time into level design to fix that since each screen size is quite small. Also originally I wanted the lack of checkpoints to be a feature, but I realized too late that it was sort of just annoying. Glad you enjoyed it!

Hello,

This is a really charming game. I liked its simplicity, the level design, the music, the art direction. I got to get used to the Wall Jump. I got to acquire the Crown; how do I pass through those waterfalls?

Nice entry, congratulations!

Cheers

PS: don't hesitate to try our game :)

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! if you explore around more you will find buttons that stop them. When you get into that first town, for example, there is a button. Also I'll definitely try yours out!

Cute little mushroom game :D

It was a bit hard to find my way around the first time and the using keyboards the controls didn't feel that intuitive, but otherwise than that its really polished and fun,

Developer(+1)

Yeah I totally get that! unfortunately the game engine i use is very limited, so those controls are the only buttons I really have, glad you liked it!

Nice mushroom theme. The pixel art is adorable. Well done! :)

Very relaxing and pleasant game. Liked the plot and nice music at background. The character is adorable. Good job!

Developer

Thank you!

Cool concept, got stuck after the first power-up (not too much time to learn hitbox and mechanics), looking to test it better after the time finish.

Love the art and it's implementation, one issue can be the font used for the various text that are little bit complicated to understand on the first read

Developer(+1)

I'm going to go in and make the wall jump more intuitive, its much more simple than it seems you just need to not hold down arrow keys, but of course it doesn't say that so I am going to change it. Also, I feel you on the font but unfortunately the game engine I use doesn't have any other options. Definitely give it another play when the jam is rating, im gonna change a bunch!
