Great game! Really impressive amount of content for 48hrs. Some really nice artwork too. Gaining new input as your progress is a pretty unique idea and its executed well in the level design too. Sprout is a very charming character. I played through it three times and tried your speed run challenge - my best run was 3 mins 30 seconds!
I don't have much negative to say about it except small ideas to improve/add polish e.g add a custom font and polish the UI a bit, and maybe have add atmospheric "cave-y" audio and/or less cheerful music once you are underground. A very strong entry overall!
Thanks for your feedback and thanks for putting on yet another great jam! A custom font was originally on my to-do list but certain animations took a bit longer than I anticipated so I had to cut that along with a few other polish details I had hoped to get to.
Really glad you enjoyed it though thanks for checking it out!
This is fun
Thank you! I appreciate you checking it out!
Good controls and music! One thing I would change is that when the character is over a moving platform it should follow the movement, otherwise is hard to understand what is the next move.
Good job!
Yes that's a great idea and one that I planned on including! Unfortunately some of the animation took too long so I was unable to properly implement in time. As as result I limited the number of moving platforms you could land on so hopefully it wasn't too distracting! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
This game was amazing. The animations, the mechanics, the concept, the visuals, simply amazing! That was a really creative idea to have players unlock the mechanics as they progress along and the journey was quite fulfilling. Amazing job on this game!
Thank you so much I really appreciate your kind words :)
Wow ! One of the best games in this jam ! I love how the character control is "growing", no bugs for me ! Good job, idk how you made this in 48 hours :O but Congrats!
Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it! It definitely takes a lot of practice I've done several jams at this point so I kind of have a feel of what I will and won't be able to accomplish during the time period, so that can ensure I don't have to spend too long on one single task. Thanks for your feedback I really appreciate you taking the time to check it out!
Yeah, I have made only two jams, but I noticed my enhancement between the two, I guess It's the same for you ! Anyways keep doing games your work is incredible !!
Love it! Liked the gradual growth of the character through unlocking the controls. Occasionally found the hit detection for the side of platforms a bit too unforgiving. Very cute character, particularly the 'leaf arm' for flipping switches.
I'm really glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for your feedback
Nice platform game.I like unlocking of movement key as the game progress.Quite a large map for 48h deadline.
Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Played the whole game! Some parts were fun and some little annoying but still fun game!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Really cute game. Loved the interpretation of growing by also tying it to the controls. Camera in the falling boulder room was a quite jittery. Otherwise, great game <3
I'm glad you enjoyed it! The screen shake in the boulder room was intentional, but I'm sorry if it came off as a little much. Regardless, thanks for taking the time to check out my game I really appreciate it!
This is just great! Love the mechanics. Also, is the music here OC? Loved it the most.
I'm glad you like it! The actual music track itself was royalty free (I'm not confident enough in my music composition skills to compose a piece for the game jam) but all other audio mixing and effects were still done by me. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I love the art and how you unlock movement keys to fly or walk left and right it's just a great game
Thank you for taking the time to check it out!
Its amazing, and the stunning visuals are amazing, this looks like a masterpiece ;)
Thank you so much for your kind words I worked very hard on this so it means a lot! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Your game is exceptional, a pleasure to do! Just the combo with the mouse to activate the switches is a bit annoying, but we get used to it, well done!
That's a good call about the mouse I can see why that would be a little annoying at first and definitely something I would change if I were to do it again. Thank you so much for your feedback I appreciate it!
Nice little game with metroidvania like skill/move learning. With such limited time, it is a very impressive start. With more time it could become a good small browser game, with even more skills. Perhaps a few hit points for the player would be nice.
That's a great idea! The levels were so fun to make I wouldn't mind e expanding the game in the future. Thanks for checking it out :)
This game is really great. It looks so cute and the idea of growing and learning new skills is very creative. The level design is also very good and well thought trough, but I think the colliders of the spiky plant are a little bit to big. I've died many times without even visibly touching them (in the last flying part)
Thanks for your feedback! You're absolutely correct about the colliders! It was a mistake on my part where I updated the sprite but forgot to update the collider itself. Good catch! Consequence of developing in such a short amount of time. I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
This is perfect game! How can you make that good game in just 48 hours that's so hard.. 5 star rating, also please later add music volume setting, that would be nice.
Thanks for playing! Game jams in general just take a lot of practice and a lot of knowing where your limits are. A volume setting would be a great idea! Definitely something I'll add if I decide to keep working on the game in the future
This one is really good. It's not just growing in size but it's learning new moves as well.
Thank you so much I really appreciate you taking the time to check it out!
Wow, it`s so nice game. Good job!
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Good solid level design, cute little sprout, what's not to love? I loved the upgrade mechanic where you unlock your abilities one by one and you changed visually, made the payoff satisfying at the end. The moving spikes cost me a lot of deaths, so good job on those I should say. The sun voice is pretty good and funny, but for the sake of briefness, just keep five yo's and it should feel much better. Great work!
Thanks for your feedback! I went back and forth on the voice but it made me laugh so much i probably over did it! :D Thanks for playing I really appreciate it!
