So cool! A very simple mechanic that goes very well with the power theme!

This is absolutely great - the presentation is super cohesive and everything (sound, art, menus, UI) feels like it belongs together, which makes it feel really polished. You clearly have an eye for that kind of thing. The small amount of lore you created is awesome too. 

I agree with the commenter below that maybe a space bar pressed/unpressed control scheme might work better for a game like this. 

Really nice work!

Developer

Thanks so much for your feedback and kind words! :D

The simplicity is this game certainly doesn't detract in any way.  The game play is great.  Nice level designs.  Lots of variety in block types and situations.  A one button game like this could do well on mobiles.

Awesome puzzle game, the graphics pop well with the cute aesthetic. Great work!

Very cool, I love the meagman influences. The mechanics are easy to learn and fun to use.

I would love to see a speedrun of this game!

I really love the art work on this and the stop/start game play is kinda addictive!

Submitted(+1)

Fun and immediately understandable! I love the aesthetics and there's lots of potential to extend this. Also I noticed that sometimes I'd subconsciously hold the space bar after pressing, I think there's potential for an alternate control scheme where holding space moves you and releasing stops you?

Developer

I'll definitely keep that alternate control scheme idea in mind. Thanks for the feedback!

The one-button game is a genre that needs more entries like this! The art direction was fun and fitting. This would also make a great mobile game. :)

I love the spritework and the way the song is additive! No bugs as far as I can tell and fun platforming!

Very unique!! Love the 1 button approach. 
Gameplay reminds me of Mario Vs Donkey Kong: March of the minis.
I think adding some music and maybe some effects could really make this shine.
Would really like to see this expanded upon with a little more polish.

I couldn't get pass level 3, sector A, unfortunately. cant get back on the 2nd platform after bumping into the > right arrow block.
Epic game!

Developer

Yeah, I think I may have had some subconscious inspiration from the Mario vs. Donkey Kong games. lol Thanks for playing!

You aren't supposed to get back on the 2nd platform. Just run to the Right when the platform is up, Hubbub can make the jump.

This was a unique take on the theme, I think adding some spark effect on the robot will make it communicate better to the players that it is being powered. Other than that great submission!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! :)

This was a cool concept, nice job!

Love the art style!

Submitted(+1)

Fun concept, and nice cohesive art/theming!  An expanded upon version would definitely be cool to see

Submitted(+1)

Very interesting take on the basic platformer concept, love the gradual introduction of additional mechanics!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks, KingsWill! I'm glad the progression of mechanics felt smooth. :)

Really fun game! I could totally picture this being expanded with loads more mechanics of traversal (like the springs). You should really consider expanding on the game after the jam. I also loved the art and music, especially how the music would gain more instruments as the levels progressed. I also second what ChrisPis said, the game is a little short but the fact that we want more really proves the game's potential.

Developer

Thank you so much for your kind words! I already have some ideas for other level elements and features that couldn't be properly implemented in time for the game jam. :D

Submitted(+1)

really fun concept! im obsessed with games that use barely any inputs, i have nothing but respect for the fact that you made a platformer that only uses one button. great stuff!

Developer

Thanks for the kind words, JagoFett!

Submitted(+1)

A one button platformer is such a fun concept!

Developer

Thanks! :D

Submitted(+1)

Fun little puzzle game! Love how the limited movement creates some interesting puzzles. It's a little short though, but the idea is definitely interesting!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! I have some additional level ideas that ultimately weren't ready in time for the game jam...
