A well made game! I loved the use of classical music, really cool artwork as well!
This platformer game was great overall. The background art with the fall leaves and trees were really well designed and implemented. The music and sound effects has that cozy feel to it. Every time I fell off a platform, I got a game over screen. The platform had collisions when I landed on it but had no collisions as I was jumping to it because I can clip through the platform during the jump.
Great platformer you've made, reminded me of Brackeys' recent tutorial on godot (i also want someday to make platformer with Godot). As mentioned before, bird is a real predator :D From game design view, its a good trick to make the game replayable, well done!
Beautiful pixel graphics, pleasing to the eye and gives a sense of autumn mood. Nice animation. The controls are a bit clumsy, but this game is worth playing!
Thank you for the feedback
Great game. Finding the echidna's nest felt like a little secret, going underground. Getting down from the tree was a challenge, that bird got really aggressive! Some way to do a partial jump would have made climbing the tree a bit faster. I got 17 nuts, I think that's all of them. Overall an amazing entry. Looks great, sounds great, short and sweet.
Thank you for the nice feedback!
The squirrel animations are great! At one point I fell what looked like a tiny amount and died TwT I feel like squirrels could fall quite a bit more unharmed irl hehe. I like the tile set for the underground! Makes the tunnels feel like they’re glowing! The hedgehog was super cute! But the hitbox felt larger than the sprite and I died there. I like the parallax for the bg! Music was fitting and volume sliders were a nice touch! Overall a game with very nice ambience! Great work!
Thank you for the nice feedback and for playing our game. We wanted to increase the distance the squirrel could fall, but then the game became too easy.
Love this game ! It was fun to play (even though we died too many times. Mean hedgehog...)
It would have been nice to be able to use the arrow keys to play. Good job !
Thank you for the feedback, maybe someday we will add the ability to move with the arrow keys)
I love it. So enjoyable to play. the hedgehog part surprised me for sure. I didn't see this coming. Great job!
Thank you for playing our game.
The way the squirrel runs is so real. I also love the trees so much. The control is super friendly and smooth for me. Love it! I want to collect more goodies!
We are glad you liked it.
Really like the squirrel's animations. Nice art in general. I fell running away from that bird so many times! I like how the bird pushes the squirrel. It gives the player a chance to recover if they get hit. The hidden den was a nice touch. It surprised me when I fell in. Vivaldi's Autumn is nice choice for a cozy fall song :)
Thank you for the nice feedback.
I liked it, I went beyond the map, jumping over the hole
Thank you for the feedback, we will definitely fix this bug in the future.
Super cute game with super smooth controls. I restarted more times then I'll willing admit as Im not the best platformer but I just wanted to see the squirrels jump animation more as it was just perfect.
Thank you for the feedback and for playing the game.
I'm not a big platformer person but still I absolutely loved this! The art is fantastic and the squirrel's jumping animation hits on some really good nostalgia vibes. I found the platforming itself challenging enough without being too hard. Well done!
Thank you for the feedback, we're glad you enjoyed our platformer.
Nice platformer, cute squirrel and the hedgehog scared the **** out of me when it first came at me! I did find it a little unforgiving that I was right at the end of returning the last bit of food to old-slim there and when I dropped down from the 3rd step to the 1st on the tree I crashed. Perhaps it was me being greedy with that last step though - the character control felt very smooth to me.
Thank you for playing our game!
really fun platforming. only jump and move but with this level design, feel like a unique platformer. a suggestion is it could be better if camera shows a little more to the bottom because the game encourages backtracking and it's hard to see where to go sometimes.
We're glad you enjoyed the game. Thank you for the suggestion, we will definitely consider it!
Cool art style and good ideas for the gameplay. And I also tricked a hedgehog)
Thank you for the feedback, please don't bully the hedgehog, he's a good guy))))
Great little 2d platforming collectathon! The squirrel was a little jittery when moving, we had some similar behaviour in our game that was solved by setting the pixel perfect camera grid snapping to "none".
Thank you for the advice and for playing our game.
Very fun
Thank you for the feedback!
What a nice platforming game. My favortie parts were the character sprites (the jump was a really smart way to make a sprite animation that is fast to draw and good looking) and the bird mechanic. I like how the bird makes the backtrackig excitng and adds a sense of narrative to the gameplay
Thank you for the feedback!
Love the looks of the art and the feel of the character controller!
I was a bit too bad / easily frustrated to bring the egg back.
Great job overall!
Thank you for the feedback!
