I love this project! Its very cute, and as a dog lover, I also feel the love of my dog to put them in games. I sometimes found the movement a little bit to flowy, i think that is partially due to me being used to games like Marios early games. Good job!

very nice project, very old school!

Ahhhhh, I loved the aesthetics so much..!!! The colour palette is so calming and pleasing to look at, and the art is so adorable (Dany's pixel likeness and the map~~)! I also loved that there are no incredibly punishing penalties if we fail the jump or get killed by an enemy, but instead, we're free to go about it in a more relaxed way! The jumping did take a bit of getting used to, but it's part of the fun!

As a side note, I love the fact that you both worked on the game as a couple and were inspired by your IRL Dany, that is super adorable~ I'd say you did a brilliant job in your first game ever, congratulations on it!! Yes, the game development journey really is difficult, but like you say, it's also very exciting - and rewarding! I'll be supporting both of you and am really looking forward to what wonders you create in the future! <3

Developer

Thank you so much for trying the game! We are also very new to making games. We really appreciate your kind words. :)

Maybe one day we can team up and make a game if you are up for it. Right now we are just prototyping ideas and seeing what sticks.

Cute game! though like other mentions, the jump mechanic is really difficult reminds me of playing a Cat Mario game, I thought it was intended. 

There's a bug when the boss is defeated, the flying diapers(?) still appear.

But still, managed to beat all enemies and uncover the mysteries of the other world!

Thank you so much for trying the game! Hahaha the story is not there at all LOL and there is a crap ton of bugs. Still new to making games but it is very exciting. We really appreciate your feedback. The community has been so supportive. :)

Cool game! I liked the variety of enemies and mechanics! :D

Developer

Thank you! Appreciate the feedback! More enemies to come in the future which we'll base on Dany's most hated things hehe

Super cute visuals, fun platformer with smooth controls and still a bit challenging, great submission!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for trying out our game and for the feedback! So glad you had fun <3

An enjoyable platformer with a cute aesthetic. The extremely floaty air control made precise jumps quite difficult, especially when dealing with springs or smaller platforms, but everything otherwise felt quite nice. Hope Dany got lots of treats for lending her likeness to this game!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for trying out our game and for the feedback! we'll improve on the jumps system in the future, many people did mentioned the same thing. Thank you again!

Rest assured Dany got her treats! <3

Game looks as sweet as a sugar loaded cookie !
The music is a bit too repetitive and droning for my taste and not being able to steer the character in the air made it a bit tricky to control.

Great job on submitting your game!

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you for trying out our game! 

I hope the game didn't give you diabetes in the end, hehehe. 

And also thank you for the comments on the music and air movement, we'll definitely take note of this and improve them further in the future.  ^_^

Developer

Thank you! <3

Wow love the style, is really cute 😊. And congrats about being your first game, is really impresive so good job!.

I appreciated the checkpoints and the gameplay is not punishing. I'm not very good at platforms and could finish the after a few tries 😄

Developer

Thank you so much for trying out the game despite not being good at platforms, it also took us a lot of tries during our trial runs hehe! I just hope you had fun playing it <3 <3

Loads of charm, love the sprite work! Movement and jumping feels really responsive too, something I've always struggled with! Great work

Developer

The game is cool there are some part are tricky but still manage to beat the game, the boss is a bit easy and can speedrun it Lol but overall its amazing i like it!

Developer

Thank you for trying out our game! We are actually planning on adding timers so peeps could speedrun the game.  Hope to see you again the future to beat the Best Time in game hehe

Game is manageable to beat the flying snek thoo🗿🗿, overall its amazing!!

Developer

Flying Snke is awesome!!

I like the game, the music and the beautiful design, but I just find that the character's movement speed is a bit fast, and the jump is not high enough on some platforms, otherwise the game is really good , good luck for your next games :D

Developer

Thank you for the feedback and trying the game. Still really new to this and will (hopefully) improve in later projects. There is a double jump but i think i forgot to add that in description. Thanks again

Submitted(+1)

I was able to make it through all 3 levels, and the overworld was a surprise when I saw it! Also very nice to have used your assets pack and there was some effort put into a story.

The controls were a little sensitive with using the KB, but I might try using a controller with it later to see if that would make it a bit easier to land the jumps.


Thanks for the game!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for trying. The overworld was supposed to show high scores but was not able to finish :(... Appreciate the feedback very much!!

Submitted(+1)

I like the main character design. The music felt so manic and confusing. And it would feel nice to be able to control the character mid air since it feels very stiff.  Apart from that quite enjoyable.

Developer

Thank you for trying the Game! Haha I am also trying to learn art, music and coding all at the same time. It is honestly hard but it is also very rewarding to be able to see what you envision to make in action. Thanks again!!
