The art looks amazing and I would love to play it! A game where you are a bean doing bean stuff sounds like a great game! I hope to play it soon on my Mac.
Loved the game concept super straightforward. Would love to have some instructions and controllers info inside the game. The UI could be a little better also! The music was super catchy! Congratzz
I'm not sure why, but when I play this game it reminds me of the Jungle Hut stage from Yoshi's Story. I think it's the shape and angles of the platforms and the overall quirkiness that both games have. Anyway, this is a cool, physics-based 2.5D platformer. I really like the artwork (both 2D and 3D modelling) and the music matches the quirkiness of the controls. Personally, I'd say this game is absolutely legume-dary (sorry).
How can you not love beans!
I would look into implementing a tutorial of some sort. Manipulation of the bean is really difficult (and I think that was your intention during the design phase). I would look into making the bean's movement feel more snappy. I don't think it will take away from the game but make it easier for lower skilled players and increase the potential of higher skilled players.
This game really has 'getting over it' vibes. However, getting over it has more to the game, it has a narrator spewing a story/ philosophy.
Disclaimer: I never made it to the end of the game if there is one, since I did not invest the time to get good at the weird bean movement mechanics.
