Loved the art and the sfx! The giraffe's beard had me cracking up! Great job!
Wow! This game is absolutely dripping with style and charm, I'm so thoroughly impressed! Love the little otter king and his claps are just adorable! Only real piece of feedback I had is it was incredibly punishing to be sent all the way back to the ground floor on a failure when I wanted to see what new mechanics like the wind and cold would be introduced, but seems like that 'Getting Over It' type of vibe is what you were going for. Well done all around, it was a lovely experience.
An all around great game no real complaints very impressive!
WOW there are so many little details I love about this!! The giraffe bartender (incredible beard btw), satisfying ambient sounds, and challenging balancing act all came together so nicely. I found myself smiling the first time I saw King otter clap his lil' hands. well done team!!
The polish is unbelievable. It looks great, the characters are so charming, and the sound is very good, too. Of course, it's also a very well-executed physics-based game, which is a difficult thing to manage in a short time limit. I have to imagine that debugging was hard! Your team deserves the highest marks.
The first beer type game
I *love* several things about this: (1) the art style is beautiful and the characters (especially the otter) are wonderfully drawn; (2) that the game made me play out the consequences of my actions, to my surprise - stacking more beer on top of my bad stack was not at all what I expected, but made the challenge way more interesting; and (3) that the whole thing is physical, meaning I had to be smart about where I stacked first to make less of a challenge stacking the next mug. All very cohesive, I could totally see a cast of characters evolving around this and it becoming a more substantive game. Nicely done!
Christy Kwan's art is exceptional, incredible for the length of this jam. The physics for the beer is satisfying although somewhat odd in terms of the gameplay having you be very precise with floaty controls. Restarting from the very beginning is somewhat frustrating. I don't think I'm terrible at the game but the 2nd windy level seems to give me a bad score even with what looks to be the correct placement. The sound is fun, fitting track, bar atmosphere. The otter clapping is very satisfying. The cry when failing is a bit overkill and I feel the beer could use some sloshing sounds. I imagine it might be hard to add fully spilling the beer visually.
Regardless of those nitpicks, great job to the whole team.
Everything about this game is flawless. The art, the sound design, the gameplay loop, and I love King Otter. I don't have a single bad thing to say about this game. Bravo!
I was immediately blown away by the intro cutscene. I cannot express using words typed on my humble keyboard how much I love the art style of this game. Everything from the music, to the sfx, to the gameplay is well crafted and polished. The hitboxes can be a bit annoying sometimes, but the game is addicting and fun which is all that matters! It feels like a game I could spend hours playing as a kid on my iPad, which is a feeling very few games can capture, especially given such a short time constraint. I definitely see potential in this game and I hope the devs stick with it after the jam.
Hope you guys get the attention you deserve and well done on the screenshots, it really sells the vibe of the game!
Great Game, however I am bad at it
