Cool game! I liked the concept and it kept me coming back to see if I could get further! Great job! :D
I got got frustrated on the first level lol. Good ol' games where your finger slips and you start again :P Great concept! Make sure to check out my game as well! :D
good old frustrating but addicting game!
Good work boyo!
The game was great and the gameplay felt nice. But the only thing i didn't liked was at the end of the level, the camera should've moved to the next one, cuz it feels impossible to reach to the next platform blindly. But other than that, the concept was really cool! Loved the art as well!
Thanks :) The game is inspired by Jump King and I loved the camera there because of another tactical layer (just to let you know why I made such a weird design decision) :D
great:)
The idea is interesting, but I did not understand how to get above the first level. Good job.
Thanks :) you have to go to the top-left platform and jump up to the next screen aiming bottom-right platform of the next screen
I'm not the biggest fan of rage games but this is not a bad game all, the physics feel solid, the sound effects give impact to the landings, the music is nice and a little calming, I even find the character's face funny, it's like "I don't even wanna be here man." The dirt texture seems a bit weird but the trees? God really I hope those are not bodies hanging from those trees back there...
Oh, of course, those are not bodies of those who failed to reach the sun... :D
nice job at making te game, but great job at making the physics feel great!, congrats
(btw tomorrow the speedjam starts, and its foddian themed, i feel like you decided to practice a week before lol )
Oh... I didn't know that. Such a missed opportunity :( I am starting horror gamejam this weekend
ill check out your horror game then
Thanks! :D
Really really tough game! It functions as a great rage game and the map is designed beautifully to make you fall as far as possible lol - I enjoyed the game!
The game is hard but intresting, well done!
Very good execution, looks like you drew inspiration from jump king :) loved the art, only the player doesn't really fit. Great game overall!
Cool, but the start is way too hard, especially how you cant see tha platform above. However, the movement felt fun to play around with and feels satisfying, althought to improve the art I would make it more cohesive but the theme is intergrated very well and I enjoyed it, well done :)
Best game I've played yet! I couldn't reach the sun but this may be one of the few jam games I come back to. And if I ever beat it I'll let you know! Overall, absolutely fantastic. 5/5. EDIT after over an hour of playing, I finally beat it. And my opinion of the game has only grown. 6/5!
Thank you! I am waiting for it :D Edit: you earned the Hall of Fame :D
Huh, hard and interesting. Game make you think, so it's not a bad puzzle. 4.5/5
Nice atmosphere you've created here. Well done.
I think i'm repeating what others have said, but I think if there was a dynamic camera system in play it would ease off a little of the frustration (+ having a background w/ layers would make visuals even better) as well as the character design could definitely be given a few more minutes of work, but overall i think this game has a strong concept and is pretty well executed
Really cool game! I love how you incorporated the 321 mechanic into this genre. Environment art also looks really nice!
Very good game, a good combination of Jump King and Getting Over It. The sprite are really great, but the player look weird compare to others sprites. Music are awesome !
good game
raged
threw my computer out the window
10/10
great game with a simple concept, I like the difficulty and the artstyle, my only critique is that u cant see whats coming ahead of u sometimes which means u can take a big fall even tho its not ur fault, other than that great game!
