Great game! Cute and simple pixel art. I think it would be even better if the foods were drawn in the shape of a food (like a worm), but overall, it's really good. Nice job!

Submitted

Very nice! Hits the fun metroidvania moments with circling back and experiencing the same rooms in different ways, and the presentation/art is lovely. Well done!

Developer

Thanks for playing, I'm so glad you liked it!

Submitted

Nice game! Although it was a bit easy I liked it, you can cheese it a bit though by skipping over a food and then coming back to it. Do you think you could try my game out?

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'll be sure to give your game a try later!

I hate spiders, but enjoyed this game! Awesome art and animation, it works really well. I just wish I could've eaten the other spiders when I was larger than them!

Ran into a bug where I jumped into a new section and fell back out, and then my screen got stuck on the previous screen and I couldn't continue.

Awesome level design too!

Developer

Thanks for playing, I'm really glad you liked it! I had considered letting you eat the other bugs once you got big enough, but unfortunately never got around to it.

Thanks for letting know about the camera bug. I had encountered that one a few times while making the game, but thought I had fixed it.       Oh well...

Thanks again for playing and giving feedback!

I really love this platformer, growing every time i sleep n stuff. But tbh I'd make the player instantly jump when his jump bar is full; without letting go (like jump king)

Nontheless, great game!

Developer

Thanks for playing and giving feedback. I appreciate it!

Submitted

A nice platformer game. The jump charging in this game is very nice. It fit well for the not so fast paced game.

Well done.

Developer

I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for playing!

Cool level design, making a metroidvania in 96 hours is realy impressive.

Very nice little metroidvania, level design is clever, I had no problem with the jumping, nicely done!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing! The level design was my main focus for this jam, so I'm glad you liked it!

I loved everything about the game, maybe it's a bit short but except that you did a great job ! Reminds me of Hollow Knight a bit :D 5/5

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! Hollow Knight ran so I could walk :)

Submitted

Artstyle is really fun :) gameplay is cool but jump is hard sometimes

Developer

I'm glad you liked it. I agree, the jump needed some more fine tuning. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

It was a little difficult to get used to jumping but the drawings were good

Developer

Yeah, the jumping was definitely clunkier than I wanted. I meant to go back and polish it up a bit, but never got around to it. Thanks for playing!

nice game! :)

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

This game is rather short but very sweet!

Developer

Thanks for playing!

really well done! size corresponding to metroidvania traversal is a really clever concept!

Developer

Thanks so much!

Submitted

Really enjoyed it!
Very smart level building and fits the theme, I loved the cute walking animation and the atmosphere.
Great job :)

This is a fun little game, the artwork is neat and I liked the macabre aesthetic

Developer

I'm happy you liked it! Thanks for playing!

Nice job! I had fun while playing, you did a good job on the tileset and style as well.

Wasn't expecting a metroidvania for this jam but this was very well executed! The art filter really brings everything togheter imo!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for playing!

Thanks for playing! I may have been inspired by a certain popular metroidvania...
