Very difficult but fun nevertheless! I love the star system! I will make a video with more gameplay. I played on stream and had a good time!

That’s so awesome! We are happy you liked it! Do you have the VOD of the stream? We would love to watch it!

Heyy! Thanks 😀 Yep, I do, but I got a copyright claim with the music from your game and 2 others 😥 I'm trying to fix that. Here's the video though with your game 1:19:37 - 1:35:22

At first I was like.... why isn't this box breaking!! then realised I have to use the gun to get me over it! haha, love the concept, very unique. Good Job.

Developer

Hahaha thank you! I think we could definitely improve the tutorial, as the mechanic can be hard to learn at first.

Goals for our v2!

Challenging but quite fun!
The web build doesn't save my stars on levels tho

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Yeah there are some bugs here and there, but we are glad you had fun nonetheless!

This is really well done! very megaman and downwell vibes with how the ammo reloads upon touching the ground... I couldn't beat it (but I am keen on trying too, which is a great sign) Great Job!

Thanks a lot! Yeah those games and Celeste were kind of our main inspirations for this game! We are really glad you enjoyed it!

very fun! i like the idea of cannon jumps to move around! even if i'm not the best at doing it myself.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah it’s kinda hard at times, but we believe is also really rewarding! We are glad you enjoyed it!

Love this !!! My favourite thing in this game is movement , it's almost perfect . To be honest i'm not really into this type of games , but it is fun to play . Btw , audio are good too

Developer

Thanks! We are happy you liked it! We worked hard on the movement so it’s nice to see people enjoy how it feels!

Whoa! I really liked this! Played/died/restarted multiple times, but kept coming back! That's how it's done. Got some Mega vibes (But that's a good thing! 😃)

Great job Trolls!

Developer

Thanks a lot! We are glad you enjoyed it 😃
