Well done on your first game ever made! Hope you continue to make stuff on a regular basis.

already planning a new one.. 😶

Fun game! I liked the mechanics of the boss fight. I was confused about the last level though, I thought that maybe one of the pits would work as an exit, and tried them all, but died everytime.

Developer

yeah it was the last

Submitted

I really loved this game and the art! There were a few things with the movement I found uncomfortable and annoying at times such as no coyote time, but overall I enjoyed this game and its art!

Submitted

You mentioned it was  your first gamejam. You've got a lot of solid platformer mechanics (moving platforms, increasingly hard jumps, hazards, etc in the game. Good job on your submission!

Developer

thank you

Submitted

Very fun! I liked the boss fight!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

I liked the character. This type of games is rough to me,but it's so much fun.well done ! 

Developer

thanks! yours was very fun too

Submitted

Congrats on your first game! The art is great and the levels are well put together. Good job!

Developer

i appreciate it!

Host

I love his hat animation when you jump and the music makes it all feel really nice and arcadey. Its not very on-theme but that boss fight is really clever and bouncy. Very nice first game! 

Developer

it would have been more on theme if i could have made magic tricks but thanks

Really nice for a first game, well done ! I like the look of the character ;) I hope you had a nice time making it, so that your gamedev journey continues !

Developer

I liked the characters.  I had some hard time with the traps but it was enjoyable.  

Developer

thank you!

Lots of content! I definitely liked the art style of the game. You could do a bit more with the controls, maybe adding magic powerups, and a timer. I could definitely see myself speedrunning this for gold medals. Overall, fun game!

Developer(+1)

I was gonna add a spell where you dash 3 blocks in a poof of smoke but i cant do that, but thanks for your comments :D

Submitted

Controls are a bit rough but congrats on your first game!

Developer

Yeah i shoulda made it smoother but ill work on controls next time as i havent fully learned gdscript but if you find any courses to learn it please send it

Submitted(+1)

the music is a banger, the controls are a bit hard. next time i'd recommend adding coyote jump to the game, this will make it more fun in my opinion but good game overall!

Submitted(+1)

Came here to say the same, a coyote timer would really help

Developer

i put one but it was only 0,1 seconds so a bit useless lol

Submitted

Good game

Developer

you too i really enjoyed yours

Submitted

thx

Submitted

Hey, there so nice art :3
Game is pretty fun, also maybe make controls lil bit friendlier to player.

Developer(+1)

thanks! I don’t understand what you mean by friendlier, but if you mean less sharp, I’ll try with my next game but thanks!

Submitted(+1)

Hey, nice jump'n'run. I like the snappy controls!  a win screen would be a nice add on. But the boss fight is funny. Maybe make the hit boxes a little smaller the next time. But overall a good job!

Developer

thank you :D ill make sure to check your game out later too

Submitted

Developer(+1)

Submitted

Developer

For being the first videogame ever made by you is quite a good start, allthough it has nothing special about the gameplay  the character design is nice and fun. We all got to start from the basics, good job!

Developer(+1)
