Such a fun and well made platformer! The mix of progression through the small but well designed levels, the Wario Land-like interactions, the freedom to go to any planet from the beginning and being able to exit the levels with the starts you collected...

It all feels really good here, except the boss fight. It was honestly a bit anti-climatic and easy. But the basketball teaming saves it quite a bit and it got a laugh from me jajaja

Overall one of the best entries no doubt, would like to see you continue this project!

Very fun game, great graphics, but it doesn't really feel like it fits the space theme... I mean the space part is really just the level select and I guess you could consider the setting of the boss fight space, but it would kind of be like saying Mario Odyssey fits a space theme...

I really like the graphics and the quality of the gameplay is very polished. It's something I would love to have played back in the gameboy era.

Wow, definitely a great game!  Way beyond what I was able to do.  LOL  I'm not worthy of a review, but would appreciate any constructive feedback as I can see you have a lot of experience doing this.

So, where to begin, the controls were great, I did feel in control.  That said I am not normally a keyboard game player so getting a hang of the buttons to press for me was hard, I kept wanting to hit jump instead of fire and fire instead of jump, but that's a me issue not a you issue.  LOL

Love the menu screen and all the visuals.  A great deal of love was put into this I can tell and SO fits the Gameboy Soul!  Wish I was playing on a Gameboy (or at least a gamepad) as I feel like I'd be able to fully take in the game.  The sound and music were making me fondly remember the old school Gameboy I remember.  I still have my Gameboy Advance SP, wish I had the OG one though too.

Enemy AI seemed spot on too and a great variety of levels, though me getting through them all will likely take longer and I REALLY want to rate and comment on as many games as I can.

Thank you for making the game, was a blast!

I don't have much to add; it's great! The art is especially whimsical, and the soundtrack is masterful. Great work!

Definitly it's a game boy game. It feels so "game boy". Very good!

So polished!

Literally everything about this incredible, holy cow this is good. The platforming is extremely satisfying, the soundtrack is a complete banger, the game captures the gameboy soul perfectly, and I love the twist on the boss fight. The theme interpretation is somewhat loose, but this is otherwise a perfect entry for this jam!

Really feels like a gameboy game! Just the secondary theme interpretation is kind of lacking, but it’s still an amazing game!

Wow this feels like a winner to me! Outstanding on every metric, especially the game design!  I really enjoyed doing the timed rolling jumps on the desert planet.  The music was a treat on every planet.   Beyond all that, it feels just like a gameboy platformer.  Great work!

This is so good. Graphics and gameplay are reminiscent of Wario Land and Kirby. And that boss fight is straight out of Wario Land 2. It is polished, well thought out and the music was fantastic as well. Great game!

Really fun to play! It looks like a mix between wario land and trip world! Great game!

This is an incredible game. Seriously, how did you make all this in one week?! There is so many items and mechanics. So much beautiful art and cool enemies. And then you just throw a basketball game at the end?! Really crazy stuff, amazing job.

A flawed masterpiece. Flawed because the player cannot crouch 1 pixel to make the character dance.

Masterpiece! I love the way it tackles the Wario-like structure, the level design is on point, the enemies and power ups all well thought and the art insanely polished. Well done!

Such a charming game! The controls feel so satisfying and intuitive. The color palette and the music makes this game feel so cozy. If I had one request, I would like that enemies can respawn when they're out of frame so I can have more attempts to try to get the star in the snow level. Otherwise, excellent work!
