Love the idea and the pixel art style. The game looks really complete and really cool. The noddle man is really interesting, and the particles are really fascinating! Love this game!

Developer

this game is really fun. the mutation aspect felt a little lazy but I can't really be talking. gooda game

Developer

thanks for the feedback! Yeah we originally had started designing the game for momentum then noticed the theme had changed so had to implement that as well!

I knew this would be good when I heard the Stevie Wonder song, "Superstion" (or a sound-alike). The story and the art are really good. Your main mechanic seems like it would be a fun and interesting way to move around a level. In my opinion, as a person who does not play many physics platformers, I think that it could be tuned to be even more fun. It seems sorta unwieldy, and tedious when you can't predict where your character will go.

Thanks for playing! Sorry you had a bad experience. We were aiming to make a bit of a 'rage' game. So something similar to games like jump king, or getting over it. In those games the lack of fine control is actually an intended feature.

Nice cutscene! The post processing looked really nice as well. Great submission!

Developer

great little speedrun/challenge movement game! the graphics were good and felt polished, and I liked the concept of the game a lot. I never really used the charge shot, it didn't seem super useful to me

Developer

Thanks so much for playing our game! We have heard the same sentiments over the charge shot! I agree, it's a bit to slow pace of a mechanic for this game!

Amazing game! Gameplay was super fun, with great level design. This game, one of my fav of the jam. Loved the story btw :D

Developer

I am glad you liked it! Thank you!

Wow, this is well made! There are even cut scenes, and an interesting story. The controls and level layout work well for this genre, but I'm personally not a huge fan of Jump King / Getting Over It - like rage games, so I gave up before reaching the top. But this is nevertheless the best game I played so far!

Developer

thank you so much!

This game is a STAPLE in my top browser-games list. Yuk' Yuk' Yuk...

(Ok I rated your guys game, now send me my money)




Kidding. It was actually a fun game, especially considering in how little time you had to make it. I played it multiple times, even after my "friendship obligation" to do so. lol. Make more.
