Great artwork
Unique game. I felt that I was a bit to fast though but overall it was very fun.
Interesting gameplay and art! Such a hard life for a jester!
Tripped on ball, got spikes in the head and rotten tomato lotion on my face BUT
The king is happy, so am I
That's the spirit!
nice game, but I didn't see the mutation in the game
That's right, there's very little Mutation going on (though I jokingly point to the king's face...). It does however implement the Momentum theme, which was announced as the theme for a short time at the start of the jam. (See also the announcements on the ScoreSpace Discord.)
Great crowd, but I tripped on a ball at the end and almost died.

Yeah that's how it goes. The life of a jester... (There are other endings however!)
The sounds in this game are truly amazing. Gameplay also is very funny
idea +
graphics +
all the rest -
for short jams, something as simple as possible is better suited, but here there are complex tasks for balancing the game
Interesting game, I liked the gameplay and the absurdity of the concept
Cool game
This is so fearlessly unhinged that I cannot help but respect it.
I'm a lot less worried about AI replacing human creativity now. Lord knows humans will just use it to make stuff like this.
Simple but addictive gameplay, I like it.
Great work as usual, Paul :)
In one word: Fun!
Nice game, Fun to juggle with the kind of jank controls. Jank in a good way I mean.
Never thought I'd be enjoy being a jester.... But here I am.
The movement and scoring is pretty fun, took me a little while to figure out what was going on though! Pretty fun entry, I had a good time with it!
Being told that I suck is a perfect encapsulation of my existence into a only two syllable long sentence.
The game at hand has a very entertaining sound system in place as well as some extraordinary art (for the sake of it im just hoping it was self made and not generated by AI or taken as a part of freely obtained assets). Besides the artistic aspects the game also has a quite fun gameplay loop, encapsulating the theme momentum not only into the game by having a ragdoll-like joker to controll, but also some objects to catch up to from time to time.
The scoring system appears to be written with some depth, motivating for more interesting playstyles, although it is quite hard to achieve precise control over the characters movement in time.
Really enjoyed the gameplay
