This is such a lovely experience, very well done!

BadaBounce

https://add-soul.itch.io/badabounce

This is a quick little game about bouncing a critter called Bada in the air whilst collecting fireflies and combos.You got 60 seconds to get a high score and try your best to avoid hitting the edges or ground. 

It is currently a prototype, however I am considering to expand the game universe, either with more mini games, or an extended version of this concept, making it into an 'side scrolling bouncer' where you have to propel the Bada through various obstacles as swiftly as possible while collecting fireflies and other power ups.

Curious to hear what you all think about the concept, gameplay and mechanics - and of course looking forward to hear what your best score will be.

Cheers! I appreciate you taking the time to give it a try.

Thank you for trying my little game prototype - appreciate the feedback. I liked the idea of the Bada almost getting lost in the tree crown, however I do see your point and will make a note of it.

Oh, and pretty good score! You must have gotten a few good combos to get there!

Very cool little game - as mentioned before AI worked pretty well, would have loved to see a bit more colour in the game - just drawing a different coloured line for the player and the AI would have been great. Think a local 2 or 4 player mode, could end up being quite fun. 

Totally sold on the art-style! Struggled a bit with the game, only late found out about rotating weapons, so got my ass kicked a few times. Solid mechanics, plenty of content. Well done for the timeframe.

Woah, Wave 41! That's a pretty good run - I'm glad you had a bit of fun with our game - thank you for giving it a try. There was sooo much more we wanted to do, but the time just didn't allow it.

Im glad I gave this a chance, I'm honestly impressed with what you managed to put together in a week as a solo developer - sure graphics could be better, animations, music and more than one sfx could be added. However you put together the most important thing - a core gameplay that works well, and keeps the player hooked. Well done!

Thank you for playing our game and for your valuable feedback, we'll make sure to take it into account if we can get around to refining the game.

This was pretty fun! I liked the visuals, and overall concept with the inklings! I did get overrun quite quickly by them, but it made for some short fun runs for me. 

Hehe, this was pretty fun! I could see this evolving into a good full title. Music was very fitting, would have loved to see a bit more variation in the environments. But all in all a great idea that played well.

Really appreciate your feedback - we went all oldskool Wolfenstein only allowing the left right camera movement, this helped us time wise to focus more on the other mechanics, and get away with our billboard 2D enemies. We'll gather all feedback from here and see which parts we can improve on. Thanks again for giving our game a play!

Thank you for the kind words - we are aware it gets a bit repetitive - as you mention a result of our time constraints. We might see if we can add a bit more variation in the future. We had planned boss-fights, more weapons, enemies and power-ups, but at the end had to cut some stuff to make it in time.

Got surprised starting the game, very different style from what I expected based on the cover art. That being said, I'm amazed about the world building you managed to do in a short time. I enjoyed walking around finding all the small descriptions of things.

Thank you so much for your praise! I'll take a note on the aiming indicator, see if we can make it a little more obvious.

Took me a bit to figure out, but quite entertaining and satisfying visuals.

I really liked the shifts between waves of enemies and the gathering resources... quite a few good mechanics in here. Would have loved to seen a bit more polish on the visuals, Audio was a nice touch with what sounded like a subtle countdown before the next wave started.

Thank you for testing our game, and for the nice feedback - hopefully we can do even more after this Jam.

Nice pixel art and chilled game. Feel there could be a better connection between initial art and items you excavate - like uncovering another bird in the bird bath, insects around the lizard etc.  But otherwise a good little game.

Great mechanics and level design - very enjoyable!

I liked the minimalism, mouse look around didn't work in Safari, but I got it working in Firefox, so i'm glad I gave it a second chance.

Agree with others here - idea sounds promising, some visuals are promising too - hope to eventually see a working version.

So many different mechanics in here, I really enjoyed it - even though it was sometimes pretty unforgiving with how precise you had to be with your movements. I hope you keep developing it. Also big fan of the protagonist design - well done!

strikes a fine balance between fun and frustration. I got squashed in walls so many times!!! That being said, this is cool little puzzle platformer that I would love to see more of. Oh, and almost forgot "Goldie-gun" goldfish with short time effect - BRILLIANT! :-D

The core idea is nice, I think there's a good basis to build something great. I would have loved to seen a bit more refinement on the 3D part, as the perspective used, and lack of shadow under the player made it super hard to estimate distances - resulting in a lot of death by lava! That being said, I hope you'll continue exploring and refining this concept.

I love the concept of calmness, and easing worries. Most of the things I felt missing have already been addressed by others. But I do want to say l liked the minimal visuals - just wished there had been a few more things to interact with.

A lot of good bad things going on here! Not my go-to game genre, but I appreciate the effort you put into this game, and the dark twist, which made it more interesting.

Cheers! Thanks for giving our game a play!

I would have loved to rate this game, however I tried restarting the browser version several times, and the 2 enemies never attack, so I was never able to fire a single shot pressing the mouse. By the sound of the comments you have a pretty solid game going on. Hope you'll get to iron out some of those bugs mentioned - I'll check back in then. But for what it is worth, I did like the audio, visuals and bits of controls I managed to test.

Hehe, nice little experience giving me flashbacks to last minute written assignments. 

I really like the mood, and isometric style - but gosh did I keep digging my own grave! That being said, with more time, polish and bug fixing, I think you have a pretty sweet concept that's worth exploring further.

Great little puzzle game, simple and effective! I'll skip mentioning the known bugs, and just say I really enjoyed the game, and would have loved to see a few more levels.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the game and our quirky characters.

Happy you got around to testing our little game - Thank you! 

The stutter is a know issue we'll be trying to address. Concerning using game controllers, we had that up and running at some point, but think we cut back to ensure compatibility on all platforms for the Jam.

Thank you so much for your feedback - I'll let the devs answer, concerning the enemy bullet trajectory as I have no clue what they've done! And well done reaching level 25! 

Thank you! I know our devs put a lot of effort into  trying to balance the game - more can always be done, but it'll require time. Happy you enjoyed the experience.

Thank you so much!

Thank you for the feedback, highly appreciated! We'll keep note of it, and see if its something we can fix our end.

Well Done! Just a very enjoyable little game, with great little details. 

just all in all a great little game, and with multi-player option too! You managed to get a lot done in a short time. Very impressive entry to the jam.
