What a cute game! I included it in my GMTK compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

This is a game with a lot of flair. We've seen platformers here and there, but this one just works, looks, and feels so well crafted. While mechanically it's very traditional, the polish really pushes it into a new level. Things like the pigeons flying around and the second jump spin are the kind of fluff and polish that brings smiles to people's faces. And if not, at least rest assured that we found it to be the cutest thing.
Fantastic game! Very well worth a playthrough. One of our favourites of the jam for sure! 💖
