Great platformer! Controls were nice, polish was great, and the levels were good.

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Look at you, building a cinematic universe with intro cutscenes!

Developer (1 edit)

Gotta have lore for all the freaks on the internet lol. thanks for playing!

Submitted

Impressive execution, controls are butter-smooth, liked music and sound design! Wall jump was hard, or maybe skill issue, I'm not really precision-platformer-proficient :D

Developer

It's definitely not just you lol. We fully admit the wall jump could use some work. We might return to this project after the jam finishes to polish it up a bit more. Thank you for checking it out!

Submitted

Funny idea, fun gameplay, good level design. All around great execution. Good work!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed, I'm glad you liked the levels. I sort of cheated at the end there, the final level even needed a last minute update after we published the game. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

This game is way too polished for a jam release! Those platformer controls are so smooth! I would genuinely think this is a full release for game stores! Great job, Chad!

Developer(+1)

That's very kind of you! We worked really hard on polish. most of it was polish tbh, and while there are many areas we see to improve (and might) we're very proud of this one. Thank you!

Submitted

Fun game! The walljumping felt odd but the sound effects and music made it really enjoyable!

Developer

Really glad you enjoyed the music. Our composer worked really hard on it. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

10/10

Developer

Thanks so much!

Of course, this truly is the most obvious interpretation of the theme. It makes so much sense. Fun stuff but the back and forth wall jumping needs a bit more work.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! The wall jump is something that changed several times throughout dev time. Initially it was literally just the Celeste wall jump, climbing and all, we then paired that down to a more hollow knight style wall hang, then when we decided to incorporate a stamina system that controlled how many times you could wall jump we removed the wall hang altogether. Unfortunately that meant that the wall jump ended up needing perfect timing. We really should have kept a moment of wall hang to give the player a split second to decide whether or not to jump or fall down further. But hindsight is 20/20

Submitted

Congrats on the amount of levels!

Developer(+1)

The great struggle of a game jammer. You can make a mechanically sound game but not have time to make any levels. I was pulling my hair out trying to make these in a rush. Thanks for playing! 

Submitted

First thing loading in, the menu music is peak. It actually is really just celeste but even better. Amazing work on everything in this!

Developer

Our composer is freaking out right now. High praise indeed. Thank you so much for playing our game.

Submitted

Its like Celeste but better

Developer

That's super high praise, at least in my book. thanks so much!

Submitted

genuinely fun! I like the sound effects hahaha

Developer

Lol thanks, felt really silly making them.

Submitted

Nice job feels great those protein shakes are my favorite part.

Developer

Had an awesome time making the protein shake based levels. Thank you for checking out game out!

Submitted

Noice, we both did bodybuilders. Cool platformer, never seen w for jump used that way. I started to get the hang of it after awhile and it became pretty natural. Thanks for making this!

Developer

Great minds and all that. The up/w for jump is a quirk of moose and I growing up playing some crappy old school PC platformers I think lol. Thanks for your review

Submitted

I thought it was really cool. The humor works well, and the platforming is spot on! It really gives off some Celeste vibes—seriously, it's awesome.

Developer

Celeste is definitely what we were going for. Especially in the music front! Thanks for playing 

Submitted

Sounds are amazing! ;)

Developer

Thank you! You'd probably laugh if you saw our sound setups.

Submitted

Cool game, cool guy! The platformer controls feel great! Cool luck!

Developer

Thanks so much! Our programmer worked super hard on it.
