Cute and fun. Liking how platforms spell messages. The ending reference made me smile. Would like to see more levels post jam.
I'm glad you liked the messages. And I'm happy I was able to bring a smile to your face :D
Smooth and simple game with a neat ending
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the ending!
enjoyed playing this! the controls are responsive and the movement is smooth, straightforward gameplay and has a good replay value. Overall great game! congratulations! keep it up!
Thank you for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
very simple consept but loved the ending
I'm glad you liked the ending! :)
A simple concept that works well. Worth a quick play. Nice job!
Thank you for playing! :D
Cute game, loved the twist ending. The music was pretty grating after a while tbh, it would be nice if the music changed for the different sections. I also think it would be cool if the rolling animation only played while you were rolling.
Thank you for the detailed feedback! I agree that the music could be irritating (it's a 15sec loop after all). I will keep what you said in mind as I develop my next game :D
Cute platformer and rolling animation. Learned that roly polys are crustaceans!
Thank you for playing! I didn't know they are crustaceans either until I started the research for this game. xD
Nice and fun game :) I loved the end, so funny :3
Thank you for playing our team's game! Glad you liked the ending :3
What a charming funny game. Loved the funny conversation at the end and the messages carved into the level design :) The jump mechanics are easier than normal platformer, but I guess that is intentional to make the game more "casual".
Thank you for playing the game! I'm happy that you liked the ending.
Coming from the "Rate and Share" discord thread :)
Very cute game, your music reminded me of an Undertale song.
The checkpoints were very nice.
Great game!
Thank you for playing the game! The checkpoints were a late addition and I'm glad you liked it.
Great... now I'm going to have that happy little catchy tune in my head all night! As others said, the floaty jumping is a bit less traditional to the genre, but I kind of liked it since it made the game a bit more forgiving. The game is definitely reminded me of my NES days as a kid. And, thanks for including checkpoints. I definitely used them! Nicely done!
Thank you for playing the game!
This was a fun little platformer! Played all the way until the very end, loved those little fireworks! One thing that would work better given the genre chosen for this game, would be if the jump was not so floaty, usually with platformers having a more snappy jump tends to feel better. It would be nice to also track how many coins are collected on screen - would make for a good way to show progress or even high scores.
This was a very good submission, very cute, lovely work putting all of this together and I hope you both keep making games! Makes me happy to see so many wonderful entries.
Keep it up!c:
Thank you so much for the detailed feedback! Hope you have a great rest of the day :D
It was interesting to be able to control the jumps mid-jump :) And yay for checkpoints!
Thank you for playing! :D
A great side-scroller reminiscent of the Mario day's! Enjoyed my playthroughs but agree the gravity is a bit 'floaty' on the way down!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Its very cute! the jumping is satifying and I'm impressed with the controls, only bit of criticism I can give is that it doesn't really feel good to get caught on ledges of have your jump stopped midway
Thank you for your feedback!

It's fun to play, even if its simple it makes the game easy to understand and pretty much you know what to do, cool little game overall.
Thank you for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Hey! Nice entry! I'll be honest, this would be improved with some heavier gravity! The jumps took forever to come back down and took me a bit out of the flow when I missed a coin and wanted to go back.
Nice job on the audio, it was enjoyable while I played!
I'll take a note on that! Gravity seems to be a common issue in the game. I'll make sure to improve it on the next game! Thanks for playing!
Everything is simple but it works. The best thing I liked was the ending. The gravity was way to slow for my taste however. Well done!
Thanks for playing the game! I'll take a note on the gravity part, and will improve on future games I make!
Really nice game! It definitely needs a bit more polish, but it is really fun.
Very cool fellow dev
Thank you for trying out my game! :D
