i'm very not good at this, but it's fun! i love a little anxiety with my games, hehe.

i've seen a few takes on being the dev instead of the player, but this one is nice because it also feels kind of like a reverse doodle jump kinda thing, where you're moving and placing platforms instead of navigating through them. the art, and *especially* the title screen, is great!

my only complaints are 1) as someone else mentioned, not being able to put small platforms close enough to the edge sometimes, and 2) i was expecting the intro splash screen to fade away on its own, so i sat there for a bit before pressing anything. that's the tiniest of nitpicks though. good work on this!

Wow what a great entry. Good presentation and a lot of fun. Only issue is that I couldn't go super close to the wall

Great game! The description hits too close to home right after the Jam. Loved the aesthetic. Well done!

Ooof, never has a game premise been more relatable than right after a  48 hour Jam. Very well done!

wow the level of polish you've achieved is amazing! i really miss arcade style games and this really hit the spot

Very solid arcade game. Charming art and good music. Gameplay is very fun, but can feel a bit buggy sometimes, I feel like the knight sometimes bounces multiple times off the same object. Ive had a bounce take me up like 4 screens which felt inconsistent with most other bounces. I wish you could build more to the side cus my knight was falling straight down the edge and i couldnt really do much to hit him out. Also it would be nice to have a quicker restart, since going back to the menu is unnecessary. Other than those minor issues, its a lot of fun! Good job!

This game is very fun for me, I love the boing boing of the knight, with how bouncy the knight is. I can even cheese it in a way where it is bouncing between 2 things and u can make it fly all the way up. I see this as an intended game feature AHAHA. Although I didn't reach the end, till level 30, (curious how many levels is it for ending) I would love to try to reach it if I have the time for it. Game was very fun! I also find the game to be creative, I feel if this game was just a ball or slime and you're putting things to make it go up, it wouldn't be as fun as this knight boing boing its way up of the tower to reach the top. I like how they are also bugs that spawns that makes it harder and the lava going up its amazing although it doesn't make sense (everything doesn't have to make sense). I definitely love the music choice and the sfx of boing boing. Initially the art style and title didn't really caught my eye but now it's like, I really like the concept art of the main menu. I think it is very well drawn. For game assets, I find them very cute ahaha and its like this odd contrast of cute and metal music but the colour scheme makes sense.

Overall, definitely one of my favourites that I have played for this GMTK :D

Great art! A new twist on a tower jump game. Pretty challenging :-)

Loved the choice of music. And really polished art style. Good Job!

Challenging but extremely fun, this game is very polished and the art is amazing. The controls are a bit awkward on the keyboard, but it's still super addictive.

I loved this. Very imaginative concept and creative gameplay. Well done!

Really cool game! Took my e a while to get the hang of it. One issue I encountered is that I wasn't able to place the small platforms near the edge, so at one point my guy just fell down like 3 floors bcs I couldn't place anything underneath him. Also idk if it's just me but controller input didn't work for me.

really adorable art, and well polished gameplay!
really enjoyed the game, nicely done :)

I appear to have gotten the camera stuck on floor 63, I think it happened due to to the character having picked up a toooon of momentum

Outside of that, did another good run and got to 206, I don’t know what the target floor is to get to the end screen shown in the screenshots, but I think I did pretty well!

Placing platforms on top of the lil guy to make him pick up a ton of speed was super satisfying and I ended up doing a lot more runs than I expected. This game has a very nice addictiveness to it, haha. I do wish that the platforms also bounced from below, it would have been pretty funny to accidentally throw the guy back down! I ended up just ignoring the bubbles sadly because they overwrite the momentum the noob picked up so far. They would have been pretty fun otherwise! The slow-mo was a great mechanic and allowed some crazy momentum building!

I had a really nice time with this game! Great job!

What a unique concept! Really enjoy the overall aesthetics of your game, super well done!

The physics felt really satisfying (I liked the bouncy balls ^^)! There was a dead spot on both ends where I couldn't move the platforms (unless that's intentional?), but it wasn't too hard to adjust once I found that out. Fun game :D

Fun idea. Keyboard controls are a bit annoying. Mouse would probably be more fun. Putting controls on title screen would be nice. Also it's possible to get the guy stuck in a platform with the physics which is a lil annoying.

Really fun idea and great implementation! At first I was annoyed that I was thrown right into the action without warning but it didn't take long for me to grasp what I was supposed to do so I forgive you. I think this game would work really well with mouse controls (move to cursor position and place with left click).

Great job!

nice game, can be released on mobile probably? would be a great time killer
