Ranked from 15 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.
How does you game fit the theme?
Some of the platforms are fake and the player will fall through them, costing them an attempt. The player has five attempts to reach the top.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes. Except for the fonts and audio, which were 100% free and I gave credit to them in the game description.

Getting sent back to the start when you land on 5 fake platforms that are identical the regular platforms (as far as I can tell), feels really unfair.
The sound design and tilemap are both great.
Really liked the art and animations, and the calming atmosphere created by the sounds design. Nice work!
Nice run animation and music. It took me a few tries, but I got the cup!
Nice game! But sometimes it gets very hard ;)
Great game :D!! But I don't know if its a feature to the game, but when i landed on the green thinggy (Im not sure if that's it) at the top, it just teleported me back to the beginning! Overall a great game i like it :D!!
If you dont mind would you also rate mine XD, thatll be awesome. If not its still fine ;)

Thank you for the feedback! At the very end, there are a couple of fake platforms right before the trophy. Is it possible you may have been on one attempt left and landed on one of them? Either way, I will look into it and appreciate you bringing it to my attention. I will check out your game too! Thanks!
Great Work, I Rated it!, can you help me with my jam entry?, It would really make my day if you rate mine too!
Thanks in advance!
Here's mine!!!: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1415313
Sure thing! Thanks!
I like the concept and the art, I think its a pretty interesting mechanic. Having the game in a vertical aspect ratio also makes the game look nice. Gameplay wise I wish there was more space to make jumps, since it was really hard for me to jump through the narrow gaps. So I think either giving more vertical space between platforms, or maybe a variable height jump mechanic would make the game even better. Overall, great work though!
Thank you very much! I appreciate the feedback. I will def try to incorporate something like that next time too!
The pixel art style looks great and the aspect ratio + gameplay reminds of a fun, relaxing mobile game. I think some of the tougher jumps would feel more fair if you added coyote time to the platforming, but otherwise nice work.
Thank you very much! I had to look up what coyote time was haha....but yes, I can see how that would improve it a lot. Thanks for the suggestion!
Great job! beautiful pixel art. Gameplay is snappy and nice. Well done on finishing the jam!
Thank you!
Cool concept and style. Good job!
Thanks!
Love the concept of the game, simple and interesting! Do you plan on any updates haha?
Thank you! It is flattering to hear :) I don't plan on any updates currently, but you never know!
Ok cool! I would be anticipating :)
I found it difficult to tell which platforms are fake or not. But a cool concept! and the game looks nice. I also used kind of the same concept for my game haha :)
Thanks for the feedback and for trying it out! I'm excited to try your game too!!
