The game is quite a simple one - you fire and bunny out of a cannon and see how far you can get it. It is Keyboard and Mouse only at the moment.

High Score of 884!  I like it: music is great.  I see in the comments below you can move the bunny for higher scores... I think mentioning in your itch page description is a good idea.

Slick little game.  Very fast action, not sure how much I'm helping by trying to move around (other than deciding which plant gets fed.)   Also played on an older computer to see if I could control more if it was slower, but was not able to shoot much more than 100m (vs over 1,000m on the faster machine.)

This game looks, sounds and boings great. It totally fulfils the requirements of the jam.

If I had to suggest an improvement, it would be a camera that zooms out so you can see more of the screen when the bunny is moving fast. I know this is not a trivial task so I won't insist on it :D

This is very random, but pretty fun! I have a couple simple suggestions:

  • I had no idea you could move the bunny until I saw Gawain's comment. Maybe you could briefly flash the controls after shooting the cannon to let the player know they can still control the game?
  • Consider making the arrow at the top of the screen bigger or smaller depending on the height of the bunny. That could make it easier to time landings. (or not, that could just be part of the challenge!)
  • The controls have already been mentioned, but maybe in addition to adding more keyboard/mouse controls, just restart the game automatically after a few seconds? That would make it harder to stop playing ;)

Great job overall!

Nice little minigame!

I discovered on my own that we could move the bunny with arrow keys after shooting. It wasn't intuitive to me to try it but helped me get quite far, around 1500 before landing on a dreaded plant. I think some instructions explaining that we could move after shooting too would have made this clear.

Another improvement would be to make it clear how high the bunny is when it is off screen.  It feels really random when it comes back down. It almost defeats allowing us to move it around, since we have no chance to know when it will come back down. I'm not familiar with the original game, so maybe that is just part of the chance.

The little characters are all quite charming, music and sounds have been chosen well too! Very cool little game! I had fun!

This is your typical 5 min time waster. It’s pretty. The animations are fantastic. The music and SFX are great. It’s got boingy in spades. Love it.

(Feedback in response to @otaconio comment :D)

Fun, random, and very bouncy!

The screen scrolls a bit too fast to know what's going on but I did manage a 2,217 score so it's pretty forgiving :P

Minor feedback: I suggest controls for the "restart menu" options include keyboard so I don't have to switch to my mouse to choose selection.


Great work!

I jokingly wrote this in the Jam organizers channel:

we should have a rule for the next jam: if your game is entirely keyboard controlled, but i have to use the mouse to (re-)start the game, it’s disqualified and you’re not allowed to make games again until you’ve learnt your lesson, now go stand in the corner and think about what you’ve done

It’s good feedback, @otaconio :D
