How does your game fit the theme?
Just like how all my life I’ve wanted to make games, but I always make excuses for myself, waiting for the perfect moment and motivation. In reality, the best thing you can do is to just get started!
The game’s story revolves around a caterpillar wanting to eat some tasty berry is a symbolism of everyone’s desire to do something but are not willing to put in the effort.
This game will encourage the player and make them realize that the desire to get the berry is not enough in itself, if you want something to become a reality, you must start small and slowly climb up. As long as you try and never give up, you’ll one day achieve becoming something more.
If anyone has read this far, let my game be proof that you shouldn’t wait and just get started!
P.S.
I have more details in my doc about my game dev journey, thank you! Wiggles is my first game jam ever, zero experience on anything and yet I did it!

first, i LOVED the pixel art of the scenario, it looks really good. The movements were SO HARD but so is the life of the caterpillar. I want to try later so see if i can reach the top i need those berries
Thank you for playing and compliments! 🙏
I will definitely do my best to adjust the movement, I think it is harder than I intended. Please do share if you reach the berries! 🔥
i hate this i hate this i hate this i hate this i hate this
(i love this i love this i love this i love this)
the fricking worm man!! qwqqq
jokes aside, amazing game!!! I could only get up to 50% while i was playing it, but rest assured :3333
i will beat the rest of your game... when im in a safer place (joking).
very good game :3 very enjoyable
HAHAHAHAHA Thank you so much for playing! ✨
50% on your first try is crazy! Amazing stuff, please do share if you beat it!
Already want to smash my keyboard, which is a good thing. This is a great game, and I love the physics based animation. Reminds me of Rain World!
Thank you so much for playing! ✨
Haven't played Rain World, but I have seen the slug cat design, very cute!
It's like Jump King meets QWOP!
The controls take some getting used to, but it's a nice spin on the classic rage game
Mostly just wish this had fullscreen because I kept moving my mouse outside the window lol
It does have fullscreen
Thanks for playing! ✨
There is a fullscreen mode but the button only exist on the main menu, will definitely add some sort of proper pause menu post-jam!
Always watched streams with similar games in 3D. However, the game difficulty was way too high for me, couldn't really go that far up..
Thank you for playing! 🙏
yo... I like the idea here it is very interesting how it is all physics, couldn't get that far (23% PB in 10 mins), will try to get back and see if I can reach the end after the jam ends. the art is nice and the "bwomop" jump sfx is very satisfying... with the music the whole vibe is "hey, this is nice" but the game will have you yeeting the pc out of the window if you fall all the way back down. great job
Thank you so much for playing and praise! ✨
Really glad you enjoyed it, when I was designing this game I wanted it to be more "hopeful" than other foddian games. Would love to see how much time it took you to reach it, please do share when that happens :))
I love the quite unique art style of it! The difficulty is diabolical tho, or maybe I'm just skill issuing. I still had a lot of fun even if i only made it 22% ^^'. Well done!
Thank you so much for playing and praise! 🙏
Will definitely do some post-jam updates to address the difficulty issues!
Not really my type of game, but I enjoyed it a lot. Although the jump feels like it is a bit random at times, and I don’t know how far I’ll get each time.
Thank you for playing! ✨
Yes, I agree that the jump has inconsistency issues, will do my best to fix that post-jam!
U and one other guy is just playing games like no tmrw like in literally any game I play there is always you 2hrs ago like how bro
Btw I have already commented and played your game
bro I am so tired haha
it's the last stretch gambate~ 🔥
Bro really replied in 3 mins💀 😂 💀
This is really fun to mess around with! I love the wigglin' mr wiggles do, is so much fun! Highscore was 40 or 50%, not so bad I would say considering I'm really bad at rage games, very creative! Great work!
Thank you so much for playing! ✨
You did amazing with getting 40-50%, please screenshot or post your total time when you do beat it in the future, would love to see how fast you were!
ts pmo. 5 stars
HAHAHAHAHA
Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it? 😂
the wiggle physics is really really hard to "get", i'm sure i'd understand it after spending an hour or two on it, but damn I feel so skill issued trying to move to a correct spot xD jumping feels hard too, it's kinda finnicky on how to pinpoint exactly where you land
the atmosphere is awesome, the presentation is pretty well polished imo and there's a video guide attached and I appreciate that, I'll come back to this game in my Free Time:tm: to give it another spin!!!!
Thank you so much for playing! 🙏
Yes, I completely agree with your concerns with the feeling of the movement, it does take a while to get used to. will consider adjusting the physics and such for the post-jam updates. I appreciate it so much that you're willing to try again in the future, you'll for sure wiggle your way up to the top one day!
Thank you for playing and feedback! 🙏
I agree that there is inconsistency with the jumps, it's got something to do with the joints and physics I presume, I will do my best to make the jumping feel better post-jam!
Man, I'm tooooooo bad at this game lol, but I liked the idea, it reminds me Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy. Congrats for the game, I'm adding to my game collection on Itch so I can try again later lol, I'll get better on the game.
Thank you so much for adding Wiggles to your collection!
It brings me joy to know that you care enough to come back and try again, with that kind of mindset, you will one day be able to wiggle your way up to the top! 🔥
Oh boy controlling the caterpillar is hard.haha. Love the concept. I really like how simple the controls are too, very easy to pick and up play in a game jam. Well done
Thank you for playing and feedback! ✨
Will definitely adjust difficulty post-jam, I'd want everyone to have a better chance, especially at the beginning.
Very challenging and fun game. I sucked at it but still had fun.
Thank you for playing! 🙏
fun: simple yet challenging, reminds me of games like getting over it, I like it
Presentation: simple art style, the physics of the worm was really good
creativity: great idea, the climbing was fun, fits the theme well
Thank you so much for playing and the kind words! 🙏
id love for you to try my game, I'm sure you're gonna love it 😁 it's a platformer as well
I’ll be honest, I really quack at this kind of games, but overall, I say this was a fun experience.
The platforming was great (though again, I sucked at it), but it felt really polished, so all I have to say is Great Job.
I dont quack ?? 😂😂😂
Thank you so much for playing! ✨
Glad you enjoyed it!
Omg this game was so challenging but super fun! Really creative platforming mechanics & I love the whole aesthetic as well. great job!
Thank you so much for playing! ✨
I am glad that you enjoyed it aad liked my vision for the game!
amazing game! Probably one of the best from the jam. The caterpillar is so charming and the controls are very unique. It's hard for me to believe this is your first jam. Well done, broski
It's hard for me to believe it's doing so well 😭
Not gonna lie, when I submitted my game, I thought Wiggles was a bad game, I did had to cut 90% of the planned features and content in the game due to my lack of knowledge with everything game dev, have zero experience with everything, but I still did it and most people seem to enjoy my game, which puts a huge smile on my face! Thank you so much for playing and compliments! 🙏
