This concept is really funny! banana for scale is a really creative use of the theme, great submittion!
I love all the banana themed games coming out of this jam :D
Fun idea and nice art style, I think this could be expanded upon to introduce more varied gameplay if made into a full game.
Overall it was a neat idea and pretty well executed, well done!
Nice idea! This is the first "banana for scale" game I've seen so far
Nice game and idea! I think it would be cool if you had a score out of 10 or something to see if you did well. But besides that, it was really cool to play!
ayyy, another banana for scale game! Very cool idea, artstyle is great, nice sounds (besides music not looping) tho it becomes quite stale preety fast since there is no real progression (at least from the 10 minutes i've played)
Overall a great job! It's always fun to play games with the same basic idea as mine and see how the idea can evolve, hope you find time to check out my game too!
Hey thanks for the feedback :) yeah that is true, I needed to add more variety but ran out of time :D one idea was to add more parameters then weight and length. For example temperature: when you grap the sword you can only hold it for a specific time depending on the temperature it has.
I will definitely check out your game :)
This was a fun concept, the banana being used to scale the staffs and swords is so fun and unique. I liked the fact that it has variation, it really helps keep the gameplay refreshing. Music stopped, I wanted to hear more :(
Yeah unfortunately there is a bug. You can go back to the main menu and it should play again
Cute idea! The banana being provided by the adventurer added some need to recalibrate each time, which kept it reasonably fresh. Really nice art on the swords and staffs too! I liked the music, but it stopped partway through my session until I returned to the title screen, maybe it wasn’t set to loop?
I'm surprised my brain had not once thought of the phrase "banana for scale" since the jam started until now. Very clever!
Composer from the game "Crescendo" here! Really cute idea with using bananas as the reference for scale factor when picking weapons. Really enjoyed the vibe of the art mixed with the music and sfx. The game was also really simple and easy to understand and was really fun to play.
That was fun! The idea is hilarious. On my first try, I couldn't figure out how to compare the weights and was going with the vibes only haha. But then it came to me and I was unstoppable. Great job.
A gread interpretation of the Banana for Scale.
Hello fellow banana enthusiast! I almost made the exact same game but ended up going with a different concept lol. Overall a really fun little experience, good job! :)
Thanks, your game is still on my to-do list of playing all banana games in this Jam. Now I'm more excited which route you choose :) May the banana be with you!
The idea of using bananas as a unit of measurement is funny. It’s a good game and it looks amazing! Great work!
Very nice art style! Neat little polished game! It took me a while to realize you could drag the swords, lol. 5 stars on creativity for sure!
I mean, the concept of scaling swords with bananas is hilarious. Controls are a little junky but that's it. Creativity 10/10 :)
Thanks :)
Like the art style, interesting gimmick/mechanic that makes for cool puzzles.
Love it!
Nice artstyle, it was fun and really creative to try to compare the weights by moving and comparing them, Good Job.
Cool little game. The swords are really nice and bananas are such a good way of measurement
Very fun game, definitely tricky to get a hang of weights
Nice art and music (rate this game 6.0 banana height of 5.0 banana weight)
