How does your game fit the theme?
Once you start shooting you can not stop for a while. The kickback of it makes you feel out of control. Also the wind will carry you forward making you out of control

Really well done! The amount of polish on this is incredible. Personally I think the physics (esp jumping) could use some minor tweaks - specifically a grace period just before you land where you can still jump again. Right now I feel like I often miss jumps that it seems like I should have gotten because I push W a fraction of a second too soon and nothing happens onscreen. Overall, wonderful game!
I didn't think about adding "Coyotte time" but I definetly should have. Thank you thats good feedback!
Of course! :) We'd love your feedback on our game as well - SpaceBus
Dont worry I was planning to do so, just no time today :)
Really nice game, and one of the few I played that feels genuinely complete the only thing I can see making this better for me is more levels :D a super good job and a easy 5 stars
I really liked the game. I am not so sure about the wind mechanic though. I would also reconsider to shorten the shooting phase, as it can slow down gameplay when you accidentally press yourself against a wall for example. It also happens that I activate it, when I really didn't intend to, because I am so hardwired for the spacebar jump. But with little tweaks I can see this game being really good.
Wow! What a solid game.
One of the only games in this jam that I've rated full 5 stars!
This game even has some speedrun potential! You can play the game in a safe way (without shooting), or in a very risky and fun way (always shooting backwards).
The animals are very cute :з and generally the game looks very clean.
The cat is a loaf. What a CHONKER!
Very good game! I wish you good luck in your future projects!

It would help a lot if you would rate my game as well! Thank you \(^-^)/
It is highly adorable and has an interesting moving style, only little problem i found is the cannon, i'd recommend activate and deactivate from space bar at will instead of a duration based ability, it would give more control to jumping backwards as well, which in turn combined with a good map design can add to the fun, other than that i wana see this game on google play...
Thank you for playing and leaving your thoughts! We figured duration would fit the theme "Out of control" but we'll take that into consideration if we ever revamp this!
Understandable :)
Oh my goodness, so cute and fun. My only complaint is that you shoot just a little bit too long after pressing the spacebar, which turns it into a several second waiting game after you've pressed yourself up against a back wall
Thank you for the feedback!
Kitty~♥
I love how there's different screens for the different types of losses ^^
Lovely game!
Kitty kitty! Thank you so much for noticing and playing the game! I had lots of fun playing yours too 🥰
Glad you did ^^
The visuals are great. Sound effects are also awesome. You've nailed the theme of loss of control, especially with the fish cannon. I found myself getting stuck a lot because the wind pushed me into a deep hole that I couldn't easily get out of. If I were to suggest a revision of this masterpiece, it would be to have the wind come in gusts to allow for those who are not the most nimble with platforming or precise timing to still enjoy the game.
Your feedback is helpful and highly appreciated! The suggestion with gusts of wind, instead of constant wind is really interesting! Thank you a lot for taking your time to play our game and giving us your thoughts on it!
Fun game! I also made a cat game!
Thank you for playing! Kitties ftw
I tried to find defects, but I couldn't! The game is very good, congratulations!
Perfect fit in the theme, besides having a very solid identity. Great visual and sound effects too. Please continue the development! Very cool!
Thank you! It means a lot to hear that, cheers!
The splash arts are beautiful and the little grumpy cart is adorable !
The controls were a bit hard to master at first, I wanted to jump with the spacebar. I really love the fact that you can use the gun to cross obstacles.
Very nice game !
Thank you! I'm glad that you enjoyed the art and the game. The long jumps are always the most satisfying!
Adorable, lots of fun, and a great twist on "shoot to move"–making the level push you forward while having the ability to push backwards with a gun blast was great! The control swap between space and w took a little getting used to, but once I did the game and cute graphics swept me away! Great job.
Yeahh, we only realised that after people started playing xD
Thanks for playing and sharing your thoughts! We're glad you enjoyed the game and the art
Amazing!! Killer cat is on the loose haha.
Beautiful art, great mechanics. Would never be upset to lose a life for over affectionate dogs.
Enjoyed it very much. Great job.
I would appreciate it if you'll have time to check out my game.
Thank you for playing and sharing your thoughts. We had a blast creating the game and making sure that it was delightful for players to play. Means a lot to hear that!
Super fun, Loved the pacing of the game!
Thanks for playing, Moony will be happy to hear that!
Adorable, and very fun! Being able to shoot both ways is a really smart idea.
Battle the wind with the power of fish 🐟
Thanks so much for playing!
I got stuck and cound't restart :C
Aaaaaaaa, thank you so much for playing though!
Nice little platformer, good audio, good art!
Reminds me of the old DOS platformers from way back in the day. :)
Cheers! Thank you so much for playing!
Decent game! I let the dog kiss me three times on purpose ^^ Loved the art
Doggo just wants to be friends 🐕❤️
I'm so glad you liked the art! I had tons of fun making it
Really do enjoy being able to shoot backwards for long jumps
It's so satisfying for real hahahaha. Thanks for playing!
I like the speed of this game. Shoot backward and ride the wind makes you super fast. Good artwork too, good job!
Zoom zoom! Thanks for playing :D Glad that you enjoyed the art!
