random jump height has nothing to do with the roll of the dice and just makes the game really annoying!

I didn't understand how to play

Developer

Sorry to hear that.  The space bar does not work I realized after the publication.  Sorry for that.

Developer

You have to use the up button for jump and for double jump.

Ok no problem

Great art and music. Controls feel natural and the effects make simple movement very enjoyable.

One thing I feel is missing is some way of forcing player go forward. As it stands I ended up staying and waiting for a higher dice value a lot to make sure I will  jump over gaps.

Developer

Yes indeed I had thought of putting an enemy who pursues us.  But I could only spend 12 hours on this project so I couldn't finish it.  Anyway, thank you for your feedback.  Did you complete all 3 levels at once?

Submitted

No, I finished the first two and then fell on the third and got really heartbroken from returning to the begining of the first level. Coins at the end of the level are pretty cool btw

Developer

Yes I restart the game on death, when I wanted to restart the level. But I realized that after posting.

Thanks again

First and foremost the .exe download it’s an installer, I don’t know if the zip is any different, but I’m not a fan of having to install anything in my computer just like that.

Now, about the actual game, it’s fun, the art is nice, the animations are great, jumping is fun which makes platforming enjoyable. My only but would be that with high jumps the camera naturally goes too high up so you can’t see where you’ll land, which is an issue for a platformer, but overall very fun game.

Yes with the zip you can play without installation. I understand and Yes the camera can be improuve. Thanks for your comment.

I actually don't know why I checked the box We created the vast majority of the art during the game jam. Because several sprites still come from the Pixel Frog asset pack. As I mentioned on the game page. Well, I have a clear conscience now 😁
