Man I wish there was an ending to this game. I notice you're a solo developer and I want to say you did a great job! Finding all the assets together, making the game work together is very tough. You did an amazing job, the game runs perfectly, can see this as a mobile game really. Would love to see either an endless run with leaderboards and highscores, levels with difficulty with the 3 star scoring system like cut the rope, or in any variance with some sort of ending is good. Overall, very cute game, gameplay wise, I find it weird sometimes when I eat the star, I can move my player still, so maybe there's an issue? but other than that, good submission :D

This is a really unique twist on a standard collectable game. Love the idea of controlling the dropping fruits and being able to swap between them and the player. Great job!

Developer

thanks for playing!

Fun idea! the pixel art looks really charming! although, i think the bombs should contrast more with the fruit, since i kept mistaking the bombs for them. Maybe make them black instead of red? Also, there doesnt seem to be an end to the game; i think a health bar would fit well, similar to Fruit Nijna. I found the fruit a tad bit tedious to move around too. Overall, this game just needs a bit more work and it'll be near flawless! good job for only 48 hours!

Super cute game! It is cool for some chill playtime and getting a nice highscore without much stress. 

I liked the contrast between how the dino moved precisely while the fruit movements was very floaty.

I've seen people say that the bombs should result in instant lose, but I disagree, I really liked that they only dinked the points instead of going for insta lose.

I was so surprised that the fruits started moving once, I picked up the start. Plot twist for sure. :)

Cute character, and awesome concept! The dinosaur kinda reminds me of a mix of Bub and Bob from Bubble Bobble and Om Nom from Cut the Rope! What's his name??
Gameplay was lots of fun! Switching roles kept it fresh, and I played for a long time!

I like the cute character and the animations! My main criticism is with the execution of the concept. Since hitting the star makes it so you can move the fruit, but not the bombs, the player is compelled not to switch roles at all so they don't get harmed by the bombs. What I would do to change this is make the role reversal timed, the bombs controllable as well (But maybe faster than the fruit to make things challenging), and maybe make things more hectic as the roles are about to be swapped.

Nice! Felt a bit useless since theres no losing, plus the bombs counting as instant lose and controlable would make a lot better experience, and also make the star fruit mandatory to collect cuz i can just avoid it

Submitted(+1)

Interesting game cuz you need to look in different ways to score. Controling the fruits/stars felt tricky and that floaty movement not being included to the player felt quite challenging. Animations are super nice and minimal, so is the sound. Good Job!

It is super idea changing fruit with " Maniaz", that is new element.

Interesting take on the Roles Reversed theme, nice job!  Some feedback would be that there should be an endgame of some sort, either the bombs taking health away or a timer of some kind.  I also eventually got to a point where I was only getting a bomb and a grape, nothing else.  I also found a way to climb lol.  If you hit the fruits from the side depending on if youre higher or lower theyll push you up or down, you'll want to look into locking the players position at the bottom.  Good job though!

I really liked the art and music, it's so cute! The gameplay was mixed. It was fun to try and get the stars at the best time, but not really when there were long stretches of time without any star drops. Also, the lack of something to end the game was a bit weird. If given a few tweaks it would make a really nice little arcade game

Developer

thanks for playing !

though gameplay gets pretty dry, the art gets me to keep playing

Very cute game...having to switch the roles was fun, it would be good if you could speed it up so that it becomes more frantic and confusing when the switching happens! Well done!

Developer

thanks for playing!

simple and fun, I do think that moving bombs would give more challenge and it is way easier to just never switch to moving fruits, just those things but everything else is very nice.

Cute game! I love the artstyle, even if not entirely done by yourself it was a great choice.
Would like to see this expanded upon!
