The gimmick is nice but controlling the character is really hard. I think it's just lack of coyote time, but it feels very annoying when you're trying to jump, but don't - feels like the game dismisses your input.

Submitted

Really like the moving platforms and how they carried you different places. Wish that platforms wouldn't instantly go from solid ground to a slip-n-slide adventure when rotating. Other than that, loved the platforming challenge, good work!

Submitted

Fun little game, the art is really nice I love the colour palette used. The platforming is also pretty nice, good submission!

I love the little computer guy and I like the narrative you guys have going on! My one suggestion is to add coyote time. The platforms are small so sometimes I would run and jump off of them but hit space when I was just off the platform plummeting to my demise. Coyote time would help make the jumps a bit more forgiving. Great work!

Submitted

One of the best game in the jam love the idea 

Submitted

This is a really great platformer specially considering it was made in 24 hours, the movement is snappy and doesn't cause you to slide like you're on ice. Great work!

Submitted

Very fun little platformer! Really solid level design, appropriate difficulty curve. The only time I felt even slightly frustrated was when I missed a cycle and had to just stand and wait for the platforms to come back. Great job!

Submitted

A very cool game and I liked the art style and music (couldn't get past the "You are getting there, put your skills to the test" part but that is probably my poor platforming skills)

Extremely fun. Loved it. Very creative. Great controls.

Submitted

It was a fun experience. The controls felt good, every time I fell and lost my progress i feel it was due to my skill and for not the game's controls. Great job! The game also looks great, and the music is good too.

Submitted

The character controller felt super nice, and i love the music

Submitted

The right amount of difficulty and tight controls made the platforming really enjoyable. I really liked the looping platforms, it gave a sense of freedom when going up.

Music and art direction worked very well together and made it cozy to play… and also by the way, nice.

Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the kind comment, we are glad you enjoyed it!

And nice work getting to the top. You’re the first one to mention it. 

Submitted

i'm not a huge fan of platformers and yet i found this very fun. nice work!

Submitted

I love the retro art style in this game and the fun platforming mechanics!

Submitted

Your game is really fun and the visuals and music *chefs kiss. Really cool idea with the looping platforms, and for a game made in 24 hours, who knows what you could do with 4 days. A checkpoint system would work great

Submitted

I like that this game has a green gameboy palette art style! This game already feels like it was a game on gameboy! I like the art and the music! It’s really a perfect game!

Submitted

It's an adorable game, it was a fun experience. I especially loved the character sprite

Developer

We are glad you liked it! We love the little character too.

Submitted

Very short and sweet, I liked the touch of the music getting quieter near the end.

Developer

Thanks! The music getting quieter was an accident but I'm glad it was fun. 

Submitted

I played the game, and finished it (at least I think I found why my code was crashing :3 )

I liked it, although I find it a bit short, the ending was a bit simple, I tried to climb higher with no success :(

It would be nice to have jump strength base with holding the space bar, and maybe jump sounds?

Developer

Thanks for playing. Yeah, with more time I would have expanded the level, or had multiple. And I want to tweak the movement controls to add the jumping thing you mentioned among other things.

Submitted

Wow!!

Developer

Thanks!
