PICO-8 is nice, especially since it means controller support is automatic! I did find the SFX a bit odd, since they continue to play for as long as you’re holding the jump button rather than just once (and also at the end-screen where nothing moves at all).

The use of the term “mobs” for “the red areas that hurt you” was also somewhat of an interesting choice — it wasn’t clear to me that those were meant to be enemies rather than just floor-hazards.

This was actually very good. I played this whilst I was at the gym on mobile and was suprised that pico give mobile controls, very cool.

However there was a few things I didn't understand so I save my review till i got home and played it again on the PC. Glad I did on mobile I somehow missed the first sign which gave me the controls. The motion felt very tight, like very GOOD controls, i felt in control and the character responded well.

The SFX were very cute and fitting and enjoyable to listen to. I did struggle to unlock the double jump but figured it out in the end. Great job! I hope you stick around and continue to contribute to the community :)

Thank you so much for the feedback! I'd love to join more jams in the future!

Great game. I really like story and polish of the game.

I would be very happy if you would play my game.

Submitted

Really enjoyed the game, lovely art style. Found it a bit confusing to figure what was the enemy, but overall, well done!

(Shameless self promotion)
I played the game on stream and just shared my experience while playing, so if you want to see that, you can find it here:

Thank you! Also nice stream.

Love the visuals alot, everything just looks really cute and clean. Some really nice sfx as well! 

But was confused the entire time though, couldn't find a single mob. It was also a little difficult to see the red areas that hurt you, they just really blend together with the rest of the level..

Developer(+1)

The mobs are the red bubbles. Thanks for the review!

Submitted

A fun and vibrant game! Great work!

Submitted

I'm confused ^^'.  I don't see any enemies in the game no matter where I go in the level.

Developer

Cool and interesting game and a nice coincidence that its name is exactly the same. I didn't manage to get ahead with the double jump, but it has a cool Metroidvania style.

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Very neat presentation and very polished.

Developer

insane amount of polish, even if the game is short, its good.

Developer

Thank you!

Short but very sweet, plays well and details like the particle effects when running/jumping add a lot of juice. Also really like seeing a game where you're aiming to cure rather than kill enemies, makes for a nice change of pace.

Thanks so much!

 I liked the game, great game :)

Very fun! Looks really nice and polished. I made a Pico8 game as well, and I had a lot of trouble with the sound effects, I really like yours though. I wish there had been some background music though.

Developer

Tnx :))). I have the music done, but i didn't have time to put it in. I am planing to do a 1.1 release with music!

Submitted

Very Fun. Great game

How do you unlock double jump? I ran the level so many times :(. Really nice game though, I love the retro graphics and juice sound fx. It wasn't too clear what obstacles were killing me at first, I though the red platforms were conveyor belts at first LOL.

The red bubbles are enemies, you have to hold Z while touching them to cure them. If you cure them you can collect cured bubbles. Get 3 cured bubbles to unlock double jump.

Submitted

Ah... I see :)
