I liked the balloon dog :). bookmark added

Cool gameplay idea! Definitely ambitious to have a Metroidvania-like world in a game jam game, so kudos for that!

Submitted

simple but fun ! the dog could inflate more and blow up when too much, it would be funny

Submitted

Nice game. but I fell through the map lol

Submitted

Very basic concept, well executed! I wish the controls were slightly different as my shortcut kept trying to bookmark the page (haha) but overall for just one day it's interesting and has some variation in the level

Submitted

8/10 is hilarious

A quick tutorial would greatly help, but good work on the project!

Submitted

Really cool idea and nice art!

Developer

the arts basically most the game haha

Submitted

how do i jump? what are the controls? i can move left and right with WASD but thats it. i cant get up the ledge to go forward. i like the colors...

Developer(+1)

oops think i forgot to put the controls in the description lol, its ctrl and shift to change size, and the bigger you are the more you float.

also yeah i spent like a day doing some of the drawings... and also i only spent around a day actually making the game so ignore the jankinessssssss

cool idea but you more things, creativity 5 Stars

Great mechanics! Maybe needs some work on the level like traps or spikes but still great work.

Submitted

Great idea but I get stuck on walls a lot and bookmark page keeps appearing when I'm controlling the character. Maybe polish it up more in the future :)

Developer(+1)

this was just mainly a project to get me more used to using unity, i had alot of trouble figuring out how to keep the player from getting stuck, also the bookmark thing is just my fault for having D and Ctrl be the controls lol

Submitted

Amazing idea and execution but one small problem I found was that you fall off  the map a lot. Maybe if you continue working on this in the future you could fix that.

cool platformer, really enjoyed the mechanics although the bindings kept trying to bookmark the page on my browser and I ended up out of bounds a couple of times. solid game though and an excellent concept!

Developer

yeah i only figured that out after i submitted it lol, i only actually made most of the game today
