Great work! Extra points for replayability! Platforming feels a little awkward, but I used to it enough quickly.

I'll return later to beat the game without cheating at all.

Thanks a lot! Good luck on trying to beat it without cheating. There's a separate ending if you do that! As for the platforming, I feel like I made the character a bit too fast which makes it feel a bit uncontrollable. Will do a better job at that next time!

Nice little game :)

Thanks!

Really enjoyed this. The presentation is amazing, the graphics are so charming, and the choice of music was also nice. I think that the rocket jump was a bit difficult to control, but I eventually got used to it. Great job!

Developer

Thanks a lot! Yeah, i probably should've made it a bit easier to control. Hope it wasn't too bad

I really enjoyed this one! I loved the charm that the game had to offer, and the gameplay was just as enjoyable too.

At first, I thought that jumping was a bit too harsh because of the gravity, but then I realized that it was probably intentional to motivate the player to use the rocket more often. I ended up dying on my first playthrough, but I really wanted to beat the game, so I gave it another shot and got all gems and keys.

Amazing work!

Thanks a lot! It wasn't quite intentional but I'm glad it served a purpose in the end

Good job on beating the game! "only" cheated 700 times lol

Thanks for playing!

This game was really good! Though i will say the double jump kind of just felt like 1 jump since you fall really slow, and i also just ended up mostly rocket jumping. Maybe add some incentive to not just rocket jump every time, like having it do damage to you?

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I thought about that but I felt like having the rocket jump damage you wasn't a great idea because it would limit you to only 4 rocket jumps throughout the entire game, and I couldn't figure out another way to discourage it. From my experience you also end up shooting yourself accidentally a lot and having that damage you would feel pretty bad

We really enjoyed playing your game. The physics were a bit slippery and hard to master, but the game's really fun. I love your sens of humour!

Developer

Thanks a lot! The physics were definitely the biggest problem in the game, I had a hard time getting them to work properly. Hopefully it wasn't too bad. Glad you enjoyed it!

The rocket jump will stay in memories forever xD

Developer

So you broke the rules?? how dare you
