Damn, this game is amazing! Nice design, nice idea, nice mechanics and I could understand what I had to do! (That was not possible/took me a long time for some of the games here!)
Fantastic game, simple but effective, I love it.
Awesome platformer. Very creative "only one" mechanic. Very polished! Great job!
Fantastic, very well polished. The unlockables were a great idea as well.
This game BETTER BE FEATURED this is one of the games that kept me playing longer that i should. I couldent think of anithing bad.
I also had the idea of one platform.
Also something nice would be a leaderboard someone told me about this today check this out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZuqEyxYZCc
Thank you, I hope it gets featured too! Thanks for the video, I think it'll be really helpful.
Simple concept, but you made it a lot of fun! The jump indicator around the player was really helpful and the unlockable character kept me trying again and again (even though I'm not that great).
Thank you, I'm happy you enjoyed it!
Just know....I will be back to play this alot. Really fun, really impressed. Not much else to say. Hope you get featured for sure, best game I've played so far, congrats!
Wow thank you! That's really great to hear!
Cool game! I think it was a really simple and solid game, the art and music could be better, but I'm not taking that into account. Maybe a little bit too easy, making the game more difficult would make it better for sure. Congrats, and feel free to try my game!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! Unfortunately due to the limited time, I had to duct tape the art and music together quickly. I can definitely adjust the difficulty curve when the jam is over and I can expand on this project.
Really cool if I had to suggest something I would say more speed and farther away platforms really fun
Thanks! I do think that making the area bigger would make it more fun. I'll keep that in mind.
This is a nice one!
Such a simple idea but it's so fun and challenging.
I’m glad to hear that!
Really nice game. Simple but good.
I made it to 42 at my second try, but I have no urge to play it again, which is a little sad. Sorry.
The concept is really great.
Feel free to try out our game.
I glad you liked it! 42 is really good for your second try. You are way better at this game than me lol.
So you put the last character to unlock to a score you can't reach yourself? :D
40 was my high score after hours of play testing lol. That’s why it’s not a more normal number like 50.
nice mechanic! great keeping with the theme.
Thanks!
Love the fact that as i got used to the game , i notice the platform getting shorter and lasting shorter time to bump up the challenge :D
I'm glad you noticed that!
Nice and easy to get in to. Had a few jumps that seemed impossible but perhaps it's just really tight. Good concept :)
Thanks! Here's a tip: you can jump onto a platform from under it, so you don't have to jump around it to get on top. That might help with some of the tricky jumps.
I like how the gameplay leaves some space for planning even when the levels are completely random!
Good job! :-)
Thank you, that's great to hear!
I really liked the sound design for this especially. The jump and landing sounds were really satisfying. At first, I didn't realize I had a triple because I was jumping too late and didn't end up jumping off the platforms so I though the game was too difficult, but after realizing I had a triple jump it was a really nice, relaxing experience lol.
The only suggestion I'd make is that fading out the alpha for the platforms is good, but isn't the greatest visual feedback for the timing of when the collider actually disappears. Having them fade in is good though so you can plan your next move, but I think having some kind of countdown would allow players to know when to jump so they can maximize their distance.
I glad you liked the sounds! I've received similar suggestions from other people. If I decide to expand on this project after the jam, I am planning on telegraphing the platforms better.
Really fun game, great use of the theme!
Thanks!
Very nice arcade game! Would love a shortcut to instantly start playing at a higher difficult though, as the start is rather slow and easy after a while of playing. Also I would prefer, if the bubbles that indicate how much jumps you have left would stay in place instead of rotating around the character. Other than that: great game, very mobile friendly as well!

Good game , well polished .if only it was on mobile .
Thanks! I seem to be getting a lot of requests to put it on mobile. I'll absolutely consider it.
I got a score of 34 ! Very addictive, this would do a good mobile game :)
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
