It was a really fun game. I loved the concept! I just wish that the princess moved a little faster, I think it would be more enjoyable if it was more fast paced.

Good use of assets! I do wish that jumping on enemies had a little feedback noise or animation.

This is genius! Simple idea, but really cool! I like this, dude

Good job on your first game :) I didn't encounter any bugs and it was a nice little platformer for me

it's kinda neat how we both had the general idea of a princess saving a hero lol

definitely impressive for your first game, kudos to you (heck, my first one didn't even work haha), but a few things to take note of would be the spritework, which is pretty inconsistent, some items appear to be larger yet have less pixels. also the jumping, since it feels pretty floaty personally, could've used a bit more gravity to it, but overall it was a pretty nice lil game, and the princess sprites are cute


nice job ^_^

Well done! Congratulations on your first game! 🎉

It’s really impressive that you managed to make something in a 48 hour jam without any prior experience!

The princess sprite was really cute!

I feel like you could improve the controls and make the level design a bit more consistent, but of course I do not expect highly polished results in 48 hours.

Nice job! 😊

Why is there so many people with the princess idea hahah? The game is ok but the art its different between sprites and its something you need to have in mind. But keep trying its ok!

A little bit simple, but cool

Good job for your first game. I hope you feel good at completing something for a 48 hr game jam. Hopefully you tackle more and find more enjoyment.

Controls unclear, possibly broken

Developer

Sorry about that mate! I listed the controls in the first level as text, perhaps it was hard to read. 

If you're willing to try again, here are the controls:

Left/Right arrows to move

Space to jump

Jump on enemies to attack

R to reset back to the start

Tell me if there's anything I've missed, Thanks for playing!
