Really awesome animation and style! The main character's run cycle is so unique and funny, but totally fits the vibe. Simple, but well executed is definitely the way to go in a game jam, and you guys nailed it!

I loved the art work and the sounds. Sadly, my reaction time is not fast enough to switch between forms for the obstacles so I never made it that far. Great job on making a game!

There's Always A Bigger Fish...

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

That "Jack in the Box" is a nightmare, I don't know if I should jump over it using the medium form or the big one and then get small real quick just after. But the game is as enjoyable as frustrating it is, and I really tried to reach a high score (10.000), which I'm pretty happy about =))

The artstyle is also amazing, great work!

The jack in the box can be knocked over when you're big but we need to add another vosual indicator. Thanks for sticking with it! It turned out to be pretty difficult so great job!

Neat game! Very tricky to determine when you should change size, only managed to get a score of around 2400. With some more obstacle variety demanding more frequent size changes, I could see this grabbing someone's attention for a while!

Assemble & Ascendle

Thank you! I agree we need to better differentiate between breakable obstacles and non breakable. There's an exclamation point and red effect but there's a lot on screen to look at! We'll be tweaking

Very catchy runner game! I liked it a lot. The graphics and the theme are really nice. The gameplay is simple but efficient. Maybe more variations good be done, but nice work! My best score was 23409.

World Map Adventure

ArchuPicchuDeveloper193 days ago(+1)

Thank you! Good job on the score! The game turned out to be a lot more difficult than we realized.

I love the hand drawn art! The sound effects are so funny. Maybe it could be a bit more forgiving. :D

Thank you! The artists killed it. Yeah haha I think we need to revise the difficulty. We'll definitely spend more time playtesting next year!

Laica StudiosSubmitted194 days ago(+1)

I laughed so hard when I died and the squeak sounded! The game is well polished and I love the art and the color change is super cool, good job on the game!

Submitted

ArchuPicchuDeveloper193 days ago

Thank you! I agree! Astric made great sfx choices. I'm glad you made it to the nighttime colors thanks for playing!

Tyharrin194 days ago(+1)

I like it. Wished I could start over faster after dying... and maybe not die so much lol

ArchuPicchuDeveloper193 days ago

That's a good suggestion thank you! Maybe we'll make it so replaying can be done by pressing space twice.

nrodriguezSubmitted194 days ago(+1)

When does the game decides nighttime and daytime? haha first time nighttime happened, it was a welcome surprise.

Love the art and animation of the character!

Submitted

ArchuPicchuDeveloper193 days ago(+1)

I think it was set to change every 45 seconds! I love the nighttime colors too! The artists did a great job. Thank you for playing!

Fun, but big mode is OP. You just need to shrink for claws and hop over tiny obstacles. I would not have guessed that I can break things if I hadn't read the description, but it is very useful. I think it might have been more balanced if big mode could jump super high but you still had to avoid obstacles.

I scored 12009 which puts me #7 for now.

Higher than Fire

ArchuPicchuDeveloper193 days ago

I think making it more clear that the big size can break some stuff would be helpful. We didn't spend enough time testing big mode so thank you for the suggestion! I'm glad you had fun!

Leader board is always a nice touch especialy for a jam. Well done with the visuals too. The game starts really suddenly and it doesn't give me enough time to find my bearings. so it took me a while to figure out how to play.

Submitted

I probably spent too much time on getting the leaderboard working but I'm glad I did! That's a good point. There's an instructions scene but it gets skipped sometimes. I think a brief intro animation in the actual game scene before running might help. Thanks for playing!

Overhead GamesSubmitted194 days ago(+1)

Excellent art style with a solid concept. Well done!

Submitted

ArchuPicchuDeveloper193 days ago

Thanks for playing we appreciate the kind words!

kazakkingSubmitted194 days ago(+1)

very pretty game though i feel sometimes its impossible to avoid 2 obstacles that require me to both shrink and grow at like the same second. Very nice though!

Submitted

ArchuPicchuDeveloper193 days ago

Thank you! Yeah the art turned out great! We'll definitely be playtesting and tweaking after the voting period is up

NyacuSubmitted194 days ago(+1)

Cute art, but I'm really bad at the game and I have to go for the Leaderboard scene everytime 😭

Submitted

ArchuPicchuDeveloper194 days ago

Thank you for playing! You can jump higher the bigger you are if you wanna try again. After some time, the colors change to night. Definitely gonna check your game out this afternoon!
