An engaging game, very easy to understand. It's worth adding more diverse levels since the first level becomes quite repetitive.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! If I ever continue work on this game the repetition would probably be the first thing I would fix as that's a common complaint.

Submitted

I actually really enjoy this submission. I think it was very creative and while it is simple its also fun. One thing I do wish you had done was a little volume mixing though, because the *ding* is so incredibly loud compared to the music lol. Other than that great submission!

Developer

Thanks! Yeah I thought about doing that, but I took way too long brainstorming and didn't have enough time unfortunately.

Submitted

It's fun, but it gets repetitive after a while. Good game tho.

Developer

Thank you! I was going to add different mechanics and things that appeared later to spice the game up but didn't have enough time unfortunately.

Great game! The graphics are ok, the gameplay is fun and solid, but there isnt a "break" from level to level, is just gameplay nonstop, but for 3 days its good!

Developer

Thanks!

Catchy and cute music, Physics sometimes jitter and stop working, Very satisfying and relaxing

Developer

Thank you! The music was not by me, but everything else is.

You did good decision using this music

Good arcade game but the physics/collisions kinda off more where they start getting pile up a lot its slows the character but other wise nice concept

Developer

Thank you! I don't know why the collisions are weird, I should probably figure that out.

Submitted

I really love your take on the theme! I genuinely enjoyed playing!!!! The physics is a bit janky and inconsistent, but other than that i reallyyyyy loved it!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I'm pretty sure the physics is only weird in the web version as it worked perfectly in the engine, but I haven't tested the windows version yet, so I dont know for sure.

Deeper than it looks. Good little arcade game, simple and well executed.
