good concept and nice presentation.
fun game.
Great Game! I really likes it! Maybe add sounds and ui? Also Speed the player WAY down. Also what FatiguedFox said about jumping! Otherwise GG!
Really cool mechanic! Its such a good idea and is alot of fun to play around with. I do wish that jump on the bubbles while falling didn't push them down tho. The art style is also really cute.!
Some music or sfx to add to it all would have been nice tho, and when jumping on bubbles moving horizontally, not moving along with them is a little frustrating. An otherwise awesome game!
Great game! I love the way the character interacts with the bubbles, it makes for a challenging platformer. Why does he have legs? I love the funny character design. Fish with legs? Say less, good stuff!
Thank you, glad you liked it!
He's a bit of a special fish :v
Cool game.
1, There should be sound, music, and polish.
2, You should move along with the bubbles when you are on them.
I would be very happy if you would play my game.
Thanks for playing and for the feedback!
Agreed on all points, just ran out of time :)
I like the concept of making your own platforms, I think getting on to of them was more difficult than Id like. By the time I got on the second bubble I died trying to create the 3rd one.
Thanks for playing and for the feedback!
I agree the far/horizontally moving bubbles can be a bit tough to get onto. Plan was to get the player to move along with them but did not have a chance to fully implement.
My tip for the regular bubbles is to not move when you spawn them and jump straight up. A little gif to help people attached but there's definitely room for tweaking and improvement!
nice
Thank you!
nice game!
Thanks!
I like the art a lot! The squat sprite ha! Man getting on one of those bubbles is hard but it is a good difficult. Great game!
Haha yesss I'm proud of that squat sprite
Oh dear lord this game was hard. LOL I like the style and the incorporation of the theme, great effort. I kept making so many mistakes, it got the point where I knew I didn't have enough ammo left to make the jumps so found myself wasting the remaining bubbles just so I could restart. Perhaps at the start put something like a stream of bubbles rising up the screen where you can replenish your ammo. Overall, nice game I enjoyed it.
Thank you!
That's a great idea, I did put bubble replenishers at the main level. I should have done that in the tutorial too lol
Right now if you find yourself out of bubbles during the tutorial stages you can press 'R' to immediately restart
Honestly, the tough movement makes it better
I'm glad you think so! Was a bit worried if it was too hard lol
I love the artwork and the unique concept.
Controls are pretty difficult to get used to, I can't for the life of me seem to make a staircase out of bubbles. They do get pushed really easily, and it is really hard to stand on top of them. It also got annoying that "jump" is the same button as "interact".
I wasn't able to get past level 2... any tips? I do really want to see how the game ends!
Thanks for playing!
The bubble physics were harder than anticipated to code, so some of the difficulty is just from me slapping things together and not entirely intended lol, but I think the result made for an interesting mechanic.
As for advice, there is a small window after you create the bubble where you can jump and not hit it. Get that timing down and you can build a bubble staircase to clear that level!
