So cute! I suck at platformers but had so much fun playing. Really like your use of the limitation, really creative! Well done ^^

Nice game! The presentation is fantastic, & the controls are tight & responsive. However, having the seconds in the time blocks be shorter than actual, real-life seconds feels oddly misleading. Also, some of the limited time platforming sections feel WAY too tight with the amount of time you're given, especially the one where you have to climb up the 1-hit breakable blocks. Overall, still a good game.

Game is super sweet! Very difficult. Thank you for the experience!

This game was a really cute and really good. I wouldn't be surprised if it wins. The amount of polish and art is mind boggling for a three day game jam game. (I also see that the submission was pretty clutch. 40 seconds?! Wow.) I am glad you submitted this game. The difficultly is harder than diamond, but that's what makes it so fun to complete.

The only problems I have are just nitpicks and matters of personal taste. The controls are a bit slippery. The difficulty spikes a bit too quickly. The signs only show information the player has probably already figured out from the level design. You have to backtrack to get to the start of a level. The ending is just a freeze frame. (But it's a very pretty freeze frame.)

Other than that, this game is amazing. I hope this feed back is helpful.

This is incredible! Absolutely amazed at the level of polish on show 

Gameplay is challenging and fun, loved the vertical cave climb. The timed blocks make for a great challenge

The art is gorgeous and full of character, with such cute sprites and that amazing parallax background :)

Music was perfect for giving a cosy, welcoming feel, and the block countdown sfx was way more tense than it had any right to be

Shut up and take my money!

This game was incredible! I do wish the levels were laid out strictly from left to right to prevent back tracking. The art was jaw dropping and the music was a great supplement, the movement is incredibly polished and I was surprised to see more than just the timed blocks as I moved through the game. Fantastic work to your entire team!

Great platformer! Everything in the game feels super polished and well made from the solid movement all the way up to the amazing art! I will like to see be added is WASD movement and jumping with space :).

Developer

Hey! No problem, I will add WASD + Space movement to the improved version that I will upload as soon as the rating period is over! Thank you for your feedback and playing the game!

This deserves to win second place, right below Lilypad Lowdown.

not sure if it’s frozen or if this is just the end? i managed to satisfy the berry guy but the other people didn’t have new dialogue when brought their items?

Developer(+1)

Hey there! Well, the answer is kinda both. :D Unfortunately the ending and the lack of new dialogue was a sacrifice that had to be made in order to upload just in time. I will work on a complete ending and upload it right after the rating period is over, so if you want to replay the game you can have a more satisfying ending!

I remember talking in chat about not being able to make it and a certain fox telling me "whatchu mean you won't make it, of course you will!"  which gave me the motivation boost I needed to make it somehow work in the end. Thanks for that and for playing the game!

i’m glad you managed to submit! the game is fun :3

The art was awesome, and the music was real nice :)

I loved the platforming sections, and the game seems extremely polished!! 

I ran into one issue where when I went back to my house and fixed it all up with all of the items, the game just stopped. I'm not sure if there was supposed to be any more after that, but it was a very abrupt end. 

Otherwise, I loved the game and it was a joy to play! Great job!

Developer

Hey! That's unfortunately how it is! I wanted to have a nice scene at the end with all the characters standing together, but I had to export and submit, so the ending is rushed. Thank you for your comment, I'm happy to hear you liked it and also played it to the end! ❤

The art is my favourite part of this game.  Very cute designs all around. :)
