the player has a shovel to defend himself but the shovel is also his friend

Love sound and visual! For more fun as platformer here would be nice to have control velocity jumping and some gravity physics.

The visuals of the game are appealing, the theme and special object definitely there. A platformer is very basic, but the bullets you have to defend against with your shovel make it more interesting. As others have already pointed out, the music itself isn't bad but that it is so short and always repeating makes it hard to endure. For the bullets, if you were to develop it further in the future, I'd suggest make them bounce off the shovel in the opposing direction instead of them just disappearing, that would give the player a bit more feedback for the right shovel direction to defend against the bullets. But for the limited time frame of the jam, well done!

Hello and thanks for the feedback! I tried the idea you suggested right away after reading your comment, but bounce off opposite direction won't work because when  you fall down, it goes up or down depending from where it spawned and end up colliding with player - resetting its position

Beautiful graphics. Music pissed off, too short a piece that repeats. I couldn't pass this level because I don't know how. There is no coyote time, so I can't jump higher.

Developer

I tried to paint the path, but as you can see I wasn't the one one responsible for art. I hope you can see the way now, because there's a cake waiting for you in the end ;)

Really cool for your first game!  It was quite difficult though.  The controls were a little difficult especially with controlling the player and the shovel independently.  The art is amazing and the music is really good.  Overall great job!

Greatest art! Good idea with shovel gameplay. But too hardcore for me. Like Super Meat Boy I think

Да, я рад что тебе понравились мои спрайты и гемплэй. Но для первой игры мы хотели сделать платформер, буллет хелл (много пуль типа как аркада)

  •  I would love a modular jump (the longer you press, the higher you go) so i can make small jumps
  • The door collider, to go to next level should be bigger as i have evade it by passing to its right on level 3
  • Lvl4 be like "you shall not pass", "GIT GUD NOOB" ^^
  • The music is a bit repitive on a long run
Developer

Hello, thank you very much for review! 

  • Modular jump is really needed in this game, I didn't knew back then that it is called modular jump, I'll implement it if I ever make something similar
  • The door collider on level 3  is implemented just like the others (I literally copy-pasted it) and somehow only this one is not working properly
  • I would say that lvl4 is not that challenging comparing to the others, but did you finish the game? There's a cake in the end :)    (with reference to portal)
  • I agree with music, I should have said to my brother to create something longer than 12 seconds lol

The art is so cute and use shovel as shield is a good idea to me.  Only thing is the jump which is a ittle bit zero-gravity to me ! Good job anyway :)

Loved the colour theme and the art. The levels were a bit tough though!

Nice concept, little hard but still had fun playing the game! Only personal side note, the music gets too repetitive. Other than that, solid entry! Good job

Developer

Hello, you also got a nice game! Our games have one thing in common, they can be played by one person and it can be hard for him, or play like a local coop to get easy and fun experience.

The platforming is actually quite challenging! Love the games aesthetic, lovely style and palette!🎨
