This is the most original use of the theme I have seen so far with limiting yourself to finish it in 1 hour hahaha, it was pretty fun to play, too! I'm impressed you pulled this off in just 1 hour including the animations and the momentum mechanic!

You could say we did ours in 1 day (we didn't sleep while the jam lasted! I don't recommend it) and would love your feedback! If you think you have the courage & wits to help the Juan and Only Jelly Knight recover his human form, the challenge awaits you here

It isn't obvious how the game fits the theme, but it does feel good to play, once you figure out the pendulum like mechanics. I got a high score of 18. Occasional performance drops got me killed :(. Totally reminds me of Ski Free. Nice work for such a quickie.

Weaving side to side like that feels incredibly satisfying once you get the rhythm down!  This game is very fun for just an hour of work, I played until I got a high score of 38.  Perhaps if you do something like this again sometime, maybe you could add in a sound effect for two?  Would make the game just that much better, without sacrificing too much time.

instantly reminded of SkiFree, its an OK little game, but nothing really special.

It took a minute for me to get the hang of it but once I did I have to say it's really fun.

Cool meta take on the theme by giving yourself "Only One" hour. The game is pretty hard, but once you get going it feels strangely satisfying.

After trying many times, my H.Score is ..... "1". I guess my gaming skills adheres to the jam theme too :D

Overall, the game looks really good but the controls was very hard for me. I am really amazed that you did it in one hour only.

Couldn't get the game to run on chrome but it worked on Edge. Weirdly enough some of the best Slalom physics I've ever seen in a game. It just felt... right.
