Ranked from 29 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.
After a couple of rounds I started to feel like what I was actually playing was a brilliant co-op puzzle all by myself, which sounds a bit sad. I still had lots of fun though, definitely felt like my brain was trying to split in two from all the multitasking which only made beating the levels all the more satisfying.

Hey, we made a GMTK game too. Check it out!
i did not think it could be a coop game, maybe not with this control scheme but great idea... I'm glad you found the Game satisfying, thank you for playing! And yeah, we will check your game out as well ;)
Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, we would've liked to refine the surfboard's movement, but we ran out of time. I'm glad you liked the concept though!
Wow really awesome feeback thanks! We'll look at the slipperiness issue and maybe update the game when the rating time is over, I tried to fixed during development but I couldn't. That idea of punishing the player for touching the walls with the platform is plain evil, I love it lol. Btw could you give the link for the stream?, I really enjoy watching people play the game. Thanks again!
Great feedback, thank you soo much!! As the level/game designer (mos), I'm really glad you liked the mechanics and the difficulty! It's nice that flinging the character was something you thought was useful, with the second level's design we tried to teach this and I'm really happy you understood that you could give Juan momentum with the board :D
About Juan being slippery on the board, yeah, it felt off to us too... We tried to fix it making their physical material's friction very high, but while it kinda made Juan stick to the board if you moved it slowly, it made fitting through tight gaps with the board very frustrating because it would get stuck... We would have liked to come up with a good solution for the problem but we didn't have enough time, so if we keep working on the game and release an enhanced version, this will be one of the things we'll try to fix.
I'm relieved that you didn't find it difficult by the way... At first we were going to give just 3 seconds of jetpack to the player and you could juuust beat the levels, but many of the people who tested the game said it was a bit unfair, so we changed it to 4-5 seconds. And even with that change a lot of players found the game difficult! Not everybody has the same skill of course, but I'm happy that somebody found the difficulty was fair ;)
Yeah maybe we should've made it a little bit easier as many people are struggling to complete it too. Thanks for playing!!
the music is sunday by otis mcdonald ;) he makes great free music!
i'd like to know what you found too difficult when playing the game, was it knowing what to do to get through the level, or controlling the character/board?
thanks for playing our game!
yeah, with so many games to play there's not much time to master the mechanics of any of them! but we would've liked to make it more intuitive to move the character and the board... but the multitasking is a crucial part of the game! maybe a smoother difficulty curve would've been nice as well, but there's only so much you can do in 2 days 😅 thank you for providing feedback!
I'm glad that you liked it! Could you please tell us what you exactly didn't like about the platform? Thanks for trying it! :)
yeah, it wasn't 1:1, there's a top speed so that giving momentum to the astronaut is easier (otherwise it'd be too easy to throw him too fast), we're using unity's mouse X and mouse Y iirc. we wouldve liked to refine the surfboard movement much more, and maybe include a sensitivity slider, but we didn't have enough time... thanks for your feedback!
Glad you liked it! As you said, we were afraid that it could be a bit difficult for some people, but feedback is always appreciated. Thanks for your opinion!
Thank you for trying it out! We're really happy with how it turned out both on looks and on playability. It's really challenging to give Juan juuuust the right amount of momentum to complete level 2... There's a walkthrough in the game's page if you'd like to see what the rest of the levels look like. I'm really glad you liked it :D
Thanks a lot! We agree, we couldn't believe how good it came out for being made in 48 hrs. Cel shading does a lot xD
