Great job! There are so many movement options for such a short period of dev time. Loved seeing your screenshots in the Discord :D

Was looking forward to trying this game out after seeing you post updates on it in the Discord!
The music is good and suits the game in my opinion, and I love how the game looks. The controls felt a bit awkward at first but I managed to get used to them pretty quickly, although it felt like there were times where I wasn't able to double jump. The sounds on the menu screen as you go up and down through the options are a great touch also!
Personally the only things I really had a problem with were the tutorial totem things. I was moving around for a little bit before I realised I needed to stop in front of them to read what they had to say. A map or minimap of some kind would also have been useful to help navigate the level as I got lost once or twice, although I understand that this probably would have been difficult to include within the time limit.
All in all I think you did a great job and I had a lot of fun playing it! :D

RepetparationsThank you for playing Hot Dog Boy and providing useful feedback. The double jump works great with the controller but for some reason it appears to be glitchy with the keyboard. I think next jam I will leave the double jump out all together. I made the tiki's that way because at first the camera would move to them as soon as you got near even if you did not want to read it so the game felt jerky but there was for sure a better way I could have done it. I think I had time to do something better but by that point my brain was not working very well lol. As far as the mini map goes... I have no idea how to code that. haha. but that would have been nice. Thanks again for playing and taking the time to rate and leave feedback.
I have been waiting to play this since the first sprite animation, its better than I expected, awesome music, amazing animation and pretty nice combo effects.

Sandwi(t)ches of the VoidVery cool wall slides and double jumps, best idle animation of jam. I did get stuck at some point under some stairs and couldn't seem to wall jump my way out.
Was a fun platformer, thanks for putting this together!

Flamey Boi - Shenanijam 2018Great job! Lots of good bounciness and thumpiness in the animations. Very addictive, the platforming feels pretty nice. Great work.
