I think the platforming mechanic is very clean, and it's very interesting, I liked it and the art looks very good as well. Very nice game!
Hah, I even failed a lot at easy, finished it and tried medium was too much for me. Jolly little platformer!
thank you for the comment
Finished the game! Like others said, I feel like the platforming is quite hard. I also felt like the hard level was easier than the medium level? The hard level doesn't have disappearing platforms which means that it allows the player to recover. Took at least 10-15 attempts on medium but got it 1st try on hard. Was interesting on medium, where I needed to roughly plan where I was going, since platforms disspear quite quickly.
Overall feel like it's a great game with nice graphics! Just improve on platforming and it'll be even better!
Funny to play!
This can be used as baseline for a great game!
I like it's graphics
very satisfying sound effects, very hard platforming kinda makes me confused to jump when it seems you are just moving upwards the stream
Thanks for the comments 👍
Love the presentation and the sound effects were a nice touch. Like the others, I really struggled with the mechanics due to how fast the character moved and the gravity was high enough that it was usually impossible to save myself if I missed a platform. I also couldn't figure out where I was supposed to go with the first level. I though it was the boat but every time I got to it my character would just fall anyways. But otherwise, I like the concept here and the game really does look great. Nicely done!
Simple yet efficient idea, good job !
Loved the art. The platformer jumping with the angle of the art made it confusing at first, but when I realized I can just ignore the background and treat it like a platformer the jumping got easier.
I agree with VaiaMan that the physics were a little hard to grasp.
Overall, solid Game Jam game. Nice work. Good luck with the jam.

Cute graphics, cute sounds!
I found the physics a bit hard to work with - very high gravity and fast movement.
Sooo... I just need to try really hard and git gud, right? xD
Well done!
