This game is so fun. I want to buy the original now. Great job!

To be honest, I thought that was sonic when I first looked at it. You did a good job making it fit into a NES style.

It fits the NES vibe perfectly 10/10 !

Fantastic game! Throw your own spin and IP on it put it on a mobile device and you got yourself a hit. Great work! Keep it up!

This is so beautiful ;_; The vivid colours and happy animations are really appealing. But is there really a way to get past stage 3? ^^;  I lost all my lives there... getting stuck so early. Or are there only 3 stages, maybe? ~ For some reason it reminded me more of Sega Mega Drive than NES. Maybe the palette.

Here's level 3 passed just for you :D It has 10 levels. I hope you can beat them all ;). Also most of the levels are recreation of the original level layout, so if you are stuck, you can check walkthrough of original on youtube. Thanks so much for kind words.

I genuinely had so much fun playing this. The way the music abruptly stops when you lose was funny. This game has a strong identity. My personal favorite game in the jam to play so far (5/5 for entertainment here!). I do think some of the effects are a little too smooth to be NES, but even so, how could I complain? Great game.

Glad you liked it. I haven't got time to add more animations and polish like I wanted, but balancing real job, and some side jobs with this game jam, I'm glad that I made something in the end that  a lot of people like. So I'm really happy about it :) Thanks for nice comment.

Really cool game! But some effects and music are more like SNES or am I confusing something?

Developer

Thanks. You are probably right about the sound, but I think sound turned out great, as it was made by other member of the team :)

This was fun! Nice work. Snakebird is some kind of abomination of nature, but he's sure cute. I died a little inside every time I had to destroy him.

I have to admit, it took me about 5 minutes to figure out the second level, and now I see the complete solution in gif on your game page... 

Developer

You are a cheater, I'll remove the screenshots :D I'm kidding. Thanks for nice comments and thank you for playing!
