A bit janky to control, but cool ideas. For a game jam game, this one felt a bit punishing if you failed to use a bean correctly and then had to start the whole level to get to try to figure it out again, with a lot of platforming in-between. Maybe less generic platforming, more beans action would have made a bit tighter package? Also, visuals are fun and work well
I really like the vibe of this one but the controls could have been a bit tighter. Overall well done though!
I had a blast playing your game! The mechanics were smooth and intuitive, making the gameplay experience enjoyable. Overall, it's a creative and engaging game — great job!
i want more! Great game, but 3 levels is too few, I wish to see how else you'd use these mechanics, the art style is great too. Out of things that could be improved - jumping doesn't work sometimes when going down a slope and bouncing on an increasing object feels delayed. Other than that - great stuff!
the textures are so yummy!!!!
The visuals and concept are awesome. It seems like a speedrunning game, but it felt a bit challenging for me.
Very nice visuals, I love these kind of speedrunners, I wished the bean concept were more developed but that's a great start. Nice job! :)
Cool concept! I really like the use of Jack and the Beanstalk as the framing for the mechanics. Using the slingshot was a bit confusing at times but overall, nice job.
Very nice visually, a bit hard to understand. Could have been (bean haha) more fun if the beans were unlimited, like in portal bc it let the player try more things and not just be blocked. Can definitively be a nice puzzle game !
Great game and visuals. The levels has some challenging times, and left left wishing there were more of them. Controls were a bit clunky and it took me a bit of time to get used to swapping the beans quickly. The game could have more feedback when you're out of beans or as to where they are after you sling then.
Beautiful art! ^^
Wow the visuals are 👌
Visually beautiful and fun to play! Nice one on picking Jack and the Beanstalk, didn't think of that one :D
Nice game! I liked the design and had fun, but the time between bronze, silver and gold is almost the same
Nice job!
This was a great experience! I loved the environment and level design! After getting the bronze medal on level one I was like "nah" and had to replay it lol. Nice work!
Simple fun concept - I like the speedrunning replayability aspect! Interesting level design to create the different courses.
Love the graphics and an interesting take on the theme. Some sound effects and the music are too quiet and can be hardly heard. The controller feels a bit stiff like why does it stop mid-air I would like it to behave in a more physical manner.
Really fun, I like the speed running aspect! Good job!
Lovely art style, the default mouse sensitivity could be higher.
