OMG we had the same idea. Good game!

Developer(+1)

Haha, thanks! Time manipulation for the win!

BRO, YOUR GAME IS JUST LIKE MINE, BUT IN 2D!!

Developer

Great minds think alike! Same concept ,but different execution . Thanks!

I wanted to catch the cat soo badly! Me encanta los gatos. I like your idea of slowing time down. I also like the screen effect when time is slowing down.

If I had to give feedback I would say add an animation for jump. The spring can be compressed and released when jumping. And with a bit of trail effect it would look great. Also when I fall, an animation to show the failed attempt and a little sand to express sadness. But overall a great jam game!

Also if you decide to work on it a bit more after the jam - do make a tutorial. It wasn't the best experience to close the window to read for how to slow down time.

Developer(+1)

Haha, you can maybe reach one of them ,level 6 I think ! 

Thank you for this constructive feedback! I have a few of these pointers on my list for the later update ,so will drop a comment here once I get to it! 

With the screen effect , I finally managed to learn how to manipulate post processing with code, so that will be useful later ; )

Tutorial is a good call, I  am also thinking about a bit of narrative. What is Mr Spring doing there, what's up with the time moving fast  and why are the cats following him ?! 

Fun fact : the cat animation was a very first pixel art animation I made ๐Ÿ˜…

Hehe, this conversation became like a mini dev log. I am really glad that you are learning. Best of luck on your game dev journey. Would love to see what Mr Spring does next :)

Great music. I think it would work better if the game went between two states that are playable and needed for different situations.

Fun concept! The cat, the slow-mo, the tricky jumps; everything fits together in a fun, chaotic way. A bit tricky at spots but super enjoyable.  nice jam effort! ๐Ÿพ

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

I definitely need to  make the player move with a platform ,it feels unfair ( especially last bit of level 6 ,with double platform section ). Glad you enjoyed the challenge though!

It looks cool, but the platform is the real banger.

Cool little game! I love platformers, would be nice to have the regular speed being a bit slower and have a meter of how much you can slow down time - so you would have to carefully manage the slow down but at the same time still be able to pass at full speed. Nice idea!

Developer

Thank you! 

I agree , controller needs a bit of tweaking  and the timer would probably be helpful too ( currently the slow down time is set to 4 seconds  ๐Ÿ˜‰)

A spring that wont spring when pressed!! absurd!! haha great game however indeed kinda tough! the choice to not be transported by the platforms made it interesting! people would assume they move you but nooo fall and retry! It would do wonders with some more animations and to live up to the springs name!! cudos! great work!

I know right?! Spring needs some stretching, it's been slacking on exercise haha . 

Thanks for your feedback! ๐Ÿ˜‰

P.S. Did you make it to the end ?

Developer

Thank you ! ๐Ÿ˜ธ

The bullettime visuals look really nice, and I love how the cat and all the graphics come together. It was a bit hard for me, I gave up at level 2, but well done!

Developer

Thank you , means a lot! Glad you enjoyed the look of it !
