Nice to see the PICO-8 being used as a platform in a game jam :D This was great fun, felt like playing a Commodore 64 port of Shelter!
"Well, most of them made it."
The booting up segment that you added to make it feel like an old cartridge game is an A+ detail. Sadly I only kept five duckling alive. As a previous commenter aptly put it, this game gave me depression.
Oh ha, I didn't make that, it appears before every game made with PICO-8 (which is great by the way). And yes, I'm sorry about the side effect of depression.
Ah I see! XD
I should look into PICO-8 sometime. Thanks!
You monster, this should be illegal
Very cute, very simple. I like the fact that you took an real idea from the animal kindgom to fit the theme !
But I managed to keep only 9 ducklings on my first try, I'm a bad mother duck :'(
Feel bad simulator. everytime my poor ducky hit his lil head. :( awesome little game.
I reached the end with 8/22 ducks! Very neat idea, I do wish the baby ducks wouldn't stop following me though. Almost felt unfair that they would have been safe if they had just kept moving instead of stopping and staying behind... though I'm guessing that was intended. Good job :)
This game is adorable. The sound of the ducklings hitting objects fuels my want to succeed like nothing ever has. Cute game, soundtrack slaps. Well done!
Really great game! I love the music, this game is kinda sad but the idea is original and fun. It feels a bit frustrating when one of those duckling just won't come but its really cool.
Congrats!
This game gave me depression 10/10
Very nice and relaxing little game (besides from my little ducklings getting killed of by rocks). Seems like it would be a perfect mini game in another game. I'm just amazed at how many little ducks momma duck seems to have. Very well done game!!
Very cute! I felt horrible when I lost my first ducky :(
Great Game, enjoyed playing it, not to mention I love ducks myself and this was a very creative way to implement them into a video game
hahaha great theme! 5/5
This is adorable, love the music and the cool lil ducks :)- ck
I always get so nostalgic when playing pico 8 games...
