Interesting mechanical idea (you can only move when jumping), and the game looks kinda cute!
I did have a lot of trouble playing, however. Some feedback:
I hope you don't find this feedback too harsh, just trying to help :) You're on the right track, just needs some finetuning. Keep making games with interesting mechanics :)
Hey thanks for your feedback.l! Yes unfortunately some of those are bugs that I didn’t think about, but I will definitely work on improving those in the future. Thanks for pointing them out!
As far as rotating especially on the first level if you rotate a little bit you can kinda jump and slide up onto the platforms to grab the high jump key. With the rotate ability you can get the jump key no matter what. But I agree the rotate could have been implemented better.
Thanks again for the feedback and for playing my game!
I enjoyed the pogo stick feel had a commander keen vibe. I did feel like i was leaping and bounded from a mechanical point of view it was a good interpretation of the theme.
I was extremely confused at first. Something about not being able to move without jumping made me a bit aggravated. Although when i started to pick up momentum it was pretty fun.
Keep at it <3!
Hey thanks for the comment and for playing! Yeah the jump then move mechanic made more sense in my head, and could have been done better. Glad you enjoyed it though!
No package file :(
Thanks for letting me know! I don't know what's going on with it.... but I'll get it fixed.
I think I have fixed the issue. If you would like to try again I would appreciate it!
