I loved the aspect of the enviroment changing in a endless sidescrolling platformer. The way you control the player changes too which was really nice! Great artwork, cute and endearing.

The implementation is lame, but the idea is good,
it will look especially on mobile.

Thanks, I guess.

Cool game!Loved it !

I really enjoyed this game and the art is really nice. Personally, I thought the ice level was a bit too slippery and the font didn't really fit the rest of the game. Other than that tho, great entry!

Fun game, cool concept with how the different biomes affect the player! Jumping in the ice biome was a bit challenging for me but once I got the hang of it I had fun seeing how far I could travel. Nicely done :)

Developer

Thanks for playing the game; we really enjoy the feedback ! The Tundra Biome is brutal indeed, hope you had fun!

Fun game interesting use having to maintain two stats, the only thing I could suggest to add would be a collision if the player falls out of the level to restart

Developer

Thanks for playing the game ! That’s a smart solution! We didn’t have time to make some of the QoL change and we also wanted to show the travelled distance so maybe in a future update !

The controls are a bit hard for me and it took me a while to notice the text "Keep in shade", "Keep out of the shade" etc. But once I noticed it I really liked the concept ;)

Developer

Thank you for the feedback, The ice level is especially brutal but I hope you had fun, as for the text, we sadly didn’t have time to make some QoL changes! Better luck next time ^^”

Developer

Thanks for playing! Hope you had fun :)

nice looking game!

though... the jump is a bit too challenging (for me) and i did not understand in the second "level" why i got stuck on the floor?!

Developer

Are you talking about the beach level? I don't think I programmed in something where you can get stuck in the floor.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback ! So the level is a biome simulation and each biome has unique challenges, you get from the very slippery ice biome to the seering hot desert biome and the rain forest. The physics in the ice biome are very different from the other biomes: you build up momentum whereas in the sand biome, you have regular controls (so it feels like you’re stuck) and you need to hide from the sun.

The game looks beautiful and it's challenging but fun!

Developer

Thanks for playing, hope you enjoyed it:)

I really like the concept, although I think hydration is not hard to avoid compared to the pits. To improve the game, you should have an outline on the text to make it more readable, and have the game restart automatically when you lose. Cool entry !

Developer

Thanks for playing. The game doesn't restart automatically when you lose so you can see your score before you press R.

quite a fun game, really the only issue I had is sometimes when I would restart the platform wouldn't be under me which just dropped me into the void. still it was well made, good job

Developer (1 edit)

Yeah, that bug was on the low priority side. It shouldn't affect the gameplay much though. Thanks for playing!

Really cool idea, love how they all piggy back off of each other. It was a little unclear at first what i was supposed to be doing, but its pretty fun!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Although I’m not sure what you mean by “piggy back”? Hope you had fun!

Submitted(+2)

What a cool idea. It's tough, but it's pretty fun! Nice job.

Developer

Thanks for playing!

A tad hard, but its honestly really rewarding once you get the hang of it. I also really enjoyed the art and the music. Great game!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, I’m glad you enjoyed the game as much as we enjoyed making it :)

damn the ice level is brutally hard compared to the others, my best score was 140

Developer

Lol, yeah. Thanks for playing though!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Good job tho, I haven’t got many high scores myself :/
