Game Description
You are a penguin with a jetpack trying to reach the top without the snowmen stopping you
How does your game tie into the theme?
Your jetpack can get overloaded if you boost for too long and short circuit. you fall down and when your boost regens you can attempt again

Really well done and i liked the artstyle
This game plays like Getting Over It. Climb the mountain, and if you run out of boost, slide back down.
While there is no audio to speak of, the game is otherwise well presented. While I found it to be rather easy, I did make mistakes and could go improve my time if I wanted.
It's a healthy entry, and as a Professor, I have a feeling that you'd rather keep it that way.
Nice idea. I just wish it stops sliding when it is overcharged. Also it lacks audio
FYI: I tried to use the itch app to grab Primal Jump, but it doesn't work. If you edit your game page, you can probably select the option beside each file to indicate which type of OS it's for, then people could use the itch.io app to install your game. (Works kinda like Steam)
Update:
Played the game. Nice movement. Decent level structure. I liked how the failure state isn't too punishing. I would like to hear some audio, even if it's mouth noises or sfxr.me sounds.
Appreciate the feedback, and thanks for the tip on the install. I didnt realize the app had that nice install feature for playing the game. I have updated it and tested that it works via itch app now. Thanks!
Absolutely adored the movement and the main character. Nicely done! Felt nice and fluid and the platforming was quite enjoyable.
Thank you for checking it out. and appreciate your feedback it means a lot.
cool mechanic - I enjoyed the movement!
Thank you!
