Nicely done!  I liked the overall gameplay that you created, though I'd like to have more options for attacking.

Good game, funny music effects)

could use some music and tutorials, but the gameplay is really nice!

Had fun playing this, the falling and breaking blocks mechanic is a nice idea!

I really love the game. The art is great. The theme is awesome. And the gameplay is really unique. Only thing I have as feedback is to make the jump feel better. So normal when you jump but increases gravity overtime as you fall down. For your first game jam. You did a great job!

Submitted(+1)

I liked that you break blocks when falling onto it. I would say the game would be a lot more interresting and fun when expanding on this mechanic. Like when falling down for a longer period of time, you get more power and break more blocks!

Developer

thanks for the suggestion!

Took a minute to learn the controls, and I died a few times. I kept getting stuck not being able to jump off the eyeballs. And I noticed there was a lot of repetition in the level design as I descended. But overall great work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for letting me know of the bug with the eyeball :D

Nice game, i would suggest to add some powerups and more types of enemies, but overall it is a grate game!

Submitted

Breaking blocks is nice and creative mechanic. Assets are nice. Not so easy to play. Powerups would be nice Overall good job!

Can you try and rate my game ?

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback :D I will rate your game for sure

I liked that if I got going fast enough, I was able to damage enemies and break blocks. I usually like to play games more slowly, but the mechanic incentivized me to go faster and take more risks, which in turn made it more fun. Could definitely use more polish and variety, but still, great job.

Developer

Thank you :p

cool concept and interesting gameplay!

Can you rate my game please? thank you

Developer

Thanks for the feedback :d I will rate your's aswell

Very fun concept, I enjoyed bonking enemies :P

Developer

Thanks :D

Like the idea and feel of the game reminds me of minecraft, although I didn't realise I could attack until I got to this page as there's no controls anywhere in the game

Developer(+1)

That's true, should add a controls page inside of the game. Thanks for the feedback :O

Submitted(+1)

This is a very original idea. You could really expand this concept, polish it a bit  and It would be a really nice game. I like it!

Developer(+1)

thanks :D

I like the minecraft feel, fun vibe! And the name of the game is fun too. Found it a little hard to press space (like I needed more power to jump), and I lacked a reason to take out opponents seeing as I could just crash through the whole time. That said, it was very addictive. Agree with previous comments that enemies granting a bonus or dropping a power up could be cool :D Audio was fitting, some music would add to the experience!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback :D

I like that I can smash blocks just by falling quickly, definitely a great idea there. It did feel a bit clunky though, for instance falling through gaps in the floor was finnicky and there wasn't really any reason to kill enemies. If they dropped some type of power up or health then at least there would be a reason to attack them. 

Developer

The enemies should add some points to the score, but I agree that it isn't very obvious at the moment

Submitted(+1)

Cool game. Like the intro smash trough rocks.

Submitted(+1)

The idea is nice, but the implementation could be better I thought if i could destroy blocks with my momentum surely I could destroy enemies aswell??

Developer

you should be able to destroy enemies with momentum, but I think the threshold is a bit to big, thanks for the feedback

Submitted(+1)

Yeah I got to a pretty high momentum but didn't manage to destroy any enemies.

Cool look

Great looking art and fun idea :) Controls were a bit strange for my tastes.
