How does the game fit the theme?
The goal is to collect as many cookies as possible by the end of each level. However the catch is that your cookies aren’t just the prize, they’re also your resources during the level. You'll need to take smart risks and use your cookies wisely if you want to end up with the most cookies. Will you risk it for a biscuit?

Loved the visuals and UI. The game itself was fine, I feel like it was missing something, maybe some better pace would have helped. I do think the game has lots of potential and would like to see it continued, keep it up!
nice visuals, but i got a little confused with the controls overall great regardless
Really awesome with the XP visuals and music.
Quite a challenging platformer with multiple mechanics you need to master. It was interesting trying to puzzle out how to solve a given level. Level 4 was quite difficult to me, but eventually solving it felt great.
The controls are too slippery for my liking. Maybe you did it on purpose to make it harder, but to me it is no fun. The difficulty should come from other places.
And I still don't understand what the incognito ability does?
But overall, I am impressed with what you've set out to do, and you have executed it well.
Nice game! Love the retro vibe
Love the Windows theme, very creative and unique! The controls were slippery for my liking, sometimes I moved more than I wanted to :)
That's great! You could have made a platformer and it would have been fun, but then you went the extra mile with the Windows stuff. It made me laugh and it was a joy to play. Good luck in the jam!
Making a risky Windows game is hilarious! The music and visuals are perfect for the theme. I ended up playing through all the levels, but I didn’t focus on collecting all the cookies since that would be too difficult : )
Some feedback: I noticed that not all the boxes are equally sized, so in level 2, even though it looked like I would be able to move a cookie-box, it got stuck. Also, level 2 lagged quite a bit at the beginning (but I guess that’s consistent with the Windows theme 😅).
All in all, it’s a solid and fun game! Good job!
Oh my god that escalated quickly!
I thought I was getting the hang of it after the first level but it got very challenging!
Theme was on-point, using up you score as resources is a great idea for this.
The art work and sounds were super nostalgic, I would caution you on letting a ton of the same sound effect play at once (like at the beginning of levels) because it gets really loud.
Controls felt tight, great work!
Very interesting game! The movement felt a bit chunky, but I like the Windows theme.
The Windows XP style and soundtrack were pretty amusing. The song intro in particular was a fun little surprise, leaving you to wonder if some sound effect is on loop until the beat comes in.
Gameplay on level 1 seemed fine. I had some issues on level 2. When it first loaded up, it sounded like a ton of different sound effects all went off at once, which was pretty painful in the literal sense. The pacing was also really slow. To my knowledge, there was no way for me to shoot upwards to break out of the lower layers. You have to wait a pretty long time for the upper enemies to break through. Getting touched is an instant loss and so you then have to wait all over again. After dying this way a couple of times, I had to throw in the towel and so I didn't really get a chance to experience the later levels.
I'm in love with the browser theme and idea. A bir laggy in the second level, but overall great game!!
The browser Idea is great! Maybe apply more gravity to the player movement
The game concept is amazing! XD
// Those cookies were too less to gather and shoot tho
Overall, good game! > v<
A cool concept, I liked the little browser sound effects and icons, good job!
thanks!
Absolutely loved your game!
The whole theme is very clever and smart and honestly adorable!
The atmosphere you have created through the art and sfx and music and colors and gameplay is very pleasant!
I really liked the level designs there were very interesting!!
Awesome that you're only 2 ppl in this!
Thank you for your hard work!

Fun game! Very well themed, from the SFX to the sprites. I do think the controls could be a bit less floaty and more responsive but for a jam game this was really good. Well done!
Such a creative game. The whole concept is so fun. That being said, I do think the beginning levels are too difficult right off the bat. I wish there was a smoother introduction to it. Regardless, well done. Great work!
Loved the art and mechanics, music was dope! congratz
Really Cool Concept , Really Liked The Retro Look ,Can Make The Browser a Bit Faster And Give Him Some More Gravity Tho ,Great Work :)
A great play on words with 'cookies' in the browser. It was a unique concept for this game jam, and it was a very fun game. The jumping mechanic was a bit floaty, but that had its own charm.
