this game totally nailed it. I wished it had more levels.

this fits in with the gameboy perfectly, same vibe as kirby and other games from the era.
I really loved it, the gameboy feels are amazing, and Chico is so cuuuute ! I really enjoyed the music in the clouds levels. I want more ! :D

I enjoyed this a lot! Fun concept and great execution~
I have but one request: More plz.
working on it 😉
What a delightful game. The Link's Awakening vibes can't be missed here. I like this approach to a Zelda-like adventure world, where the focus is on puzzles and exploration rather than combat. Rolling the walnuts works quite precisely, and things get hectic with the pinball switches. The rooms are well thought out, great puzzle designs. Well done!
really appreciate the kind words ☺️
This is really good, The visuals are really well done, The music is nice, and the puzzles though small in amount were pretty enjoyable, i really hope you pursue finishing this because it seems like it would be an enjoyable puzzle game if complete.
Overall, this was incredible! I loved the Game Boy-style visuals and audio, and the ability to change the colour palette was a nice touch. The puzzles so far were fun, and even a little tricky to complete near the end of Cotton Clouds.
When will Chico 2 be released? I can't wait for the sequence!
I love the feel and I really felt playing a game boy title, and I see you planned to make sure the puzzles would cover the mechanics you wanted the user to experience. And with that game I just learned about Chiptone website, it will help me on the next Jams!
Great game!
Thanks so much! Really glad to hear that you enjoyed it
"Let me know if you want more."
I want more!
The mechanic is clever and used in a variety of creative ways (my personal favourite was the bouncy platforms), the character (and the art-style in general) is adorable, the GameBoy style graphics are perfectly done (I especially love all the little added touches like the overhanging branches above the walnuts), the music and sound suits the gameplay perfectly, and you have absolutely nailed the "era feel" category. Even the box art is great haha! Not to mention the actual box in the main page banner.
I'm just gushing at this point! I hope you keep working on this- it's gotta be a perfect score from me :)
Thank you so much! That seriously means a lot to me, I poured my heart into it this past week or so. ❤️ Glad you enjoyed
It shows man :) Keep up the good work.
Yes, I want more XD.
Your game are cute and fun. Probably one of the bests of the this jam and the game boy game that i never played haha.
Seriously, your game have a nice usage of the limited pallet colors, the music and sfx are awsome; realy remember the old times and the level design works very well.
Thanks for the experience! I realy wish for more of Chico!
Thanks very much! I hope to finish the game up some day, thanks for the nice comments <3
Superb!
Nails the theme, is fun, and charming.
The hub world music is transcendent.
Great job ^_^
Thank you so much! I'm happy with the hub-world music too haha.
