I love the arcade vibe.

Neat game, found it difficult to line up the player when moving across, maybe a grid movement or you can only move down in the same amount as the tiles would make it easier. Other than that, love the art and the music and a nice little game

I love graphix. I also love gamplay. Not sure how it fits  on theme buit this is definitely good game. My fav thing was - as a speedrunner- to do damageboosts and find optimal routes to beat leves fast. Like i didnt optimze/record it but just saying it is fun game to try beating fast.

Thanks! Theming: Simple mechanics (less is more, so no complicated controls) and simple objective (Get to the end.)

Has a retro feel, for sure!
The sound design is very good, although the background music is a bit too far in the background. Making it a bit louder wouldn't hurt. In some places it felt like I had to tank damage to get from one place to the other because the enemies left too little space for me to squeeze through. Or would just take forever to go all the way there aaaand all the way back. Might as well just ram that ape and get my bananas faster :D Neither very hard, nor too easy - and that's something to be proud of, because poor balancing ruins a lot of jam entries. 

I really enjoyed the graphics - very simple, but the monkeys are very monkey in nature. Love that you used bananas for life. Because bananas for life and return to monke.

Found all the banana trees! great entry, the tiny graphics and background just work so well, and the music give the game a great vibe. Also the game is long, with a lot of different themes. The polish is also great

Very cool retro game, it feels like if Frogger met Donkey Kong. The level design was fun, it felt challenging without being unfair. The music and sound effects were awesome, it made moving the character around feel satisfying. I also love the pixel art style.

A couple small things I would consider, it was difficult at times to see where I had to go. I didn't know at first that I was able to climb on the brown fences. You could also try adding some smoothing to the camera, the camera movement was a little jarring moving from branch to branch.

Overall it was really fun and I enjoyed playing it, awesome job!

I played the game, it's quite fun but I can't see the theme relate though.

Fun game. Reminds me of Donkey Kong Junior, which I used to play a lot of. Good difficulty balance. Cute visuals. I really don't see the theme in here though.

I actually got the inspiration from dk junior! Thanks for the feedback!
