How does your game fit the theme?
(Calm before the storm). You're running to try to get home before dinner is ready (the calm), and if you're late mom will get mad (the storm).

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code and all the art assets were made by my team. Music and SFX were not made during the jam and are from free music or SFX libraries.

Nice game. Love the intro, artwork and story context (get home before dinner!). The music seemed a bit eerie and I felt it didn't fit the story. The platforming was tough, although this is one of the few games where I actually pulled off a wall jump and it felt good :) All the best!

fun game

The is great, and so is the overall vibe of the game, but the mechanics need some adjustments, like the speed of the jump, size of plataforms etc

Lovely visuals tbh, one slight thing that I feel is not so good would be how floaty the jump feels, but other than that pretty nice game!

Yeah I was aware of the jumping I just couldn't figure out how to fix it in time. Thanks for the feedback!

Cool idea nice amazing visuals!! The game itself is pretty hard the 3th level I couldn't beat like 100 times cause of you have to fall precisly on a block that's so small and not even visible.

The controls in are are but annoying I can't move at all in air like if I overshot it's straight failed.

Overall for me it's a good game and nice platform with amazing visuals.

Really cool idea, moms can be a little scary sometimes haha. The art is pretty amazing too! It was a bit difficult to me to jump on the walls and the character not having inertia. But great game! Nice work!

Also, my game is about a Mom too, if you would like to take a look!

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah unfortunately I didn't have time to get the movement quite how I would've liked it to be.

Artwork was great. The jumping felt a little floaty, but getting into a good flow with the wall jumping and double jumping felt very satisfying!

I was very late to dinner 🥲

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I was trying to get the movement feeling a little better but I couldn't get it quite right in time :/

Took me 10 minutes to reach the end, very challenging. Love the art style, good job ^^,
