Fun game, great visuals and sound. I agree with others that the controls could be a bit more apart from each other, but otherwise, great game.
Great visuals!
Controls are a little close together and the pace of the game seemed too rigid
Thank you for your feedback !
I see what you mean with the controls, I have to tweak it again, it's almost what took me most of my time...thank you for playing !
You could give the user different control layouts so their hands aren't close to each other.
(You can see how I did this in my submission)
I absolutely love that the colours, buttons, and even direction changes. I think it breaks up what could be a very monotonous game and makes it much more difficult to play (in a good way!) I also love the option to use either the buttons or the mouse. Really good job.
Thank you for playing, and for your feedback ! I'm glad you enjoyed it :D
Yeah I wanted to add basic difficulty, just enough to be challenging, and I loved this idea !
this is really awesome game, has great graphics and sound. liked it!
Thanks so much !
Wow this is pretty hard, once you find a good rhythm comes in a damn modifier and you go insane lol. Nice work, it would be really satisfying if each color had a note to play once you step on it, but it's just a suggestion :D I love the penguin btw
Thank you for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed it !
That's a very cool idea, I might clearly implement it !
Really nice concept that looks way easier than it actually is. Just when I thought I got the hang of it, the colors swapped and my brain was all messed up again. Nice work!
Hey thank you for playing and for your feedback ! :D Yeah, I tried to add in some difficulty, but some people in here gave me bright ideas to ease a bit the player's pain that I will apply !
Nice music and sound effects, really liked the graphipcs aswell. Nice job!
Thank you !
Fun little game! Well done
Thanks for playing and for your feedback !
Really nice colors! I was surprised when the game flipped upside down, it was a cool touch.
Edit: After you lose, you can keep playing with the retry window open.
Thanks for playing and for your feedback :D
Yeah I know I noticed the bug...too late !
Aw, this is such a cute take on the typing game genre. I really like how you factored the climbing theme here, and the penguin is adorable. I was worried the gameplay would feel repetitive after a while, but you kept throwing in curveballs with switching up the order of the keys and flipping the screen! It messed with my flow, but kept me on my toes. Great work for 72 hours! 😄
Wow, thanks for that very positive feedback ! i'm glad you enjoyed it !!
Yeah, no problem! I've been trying to be as fair and informative as possible when it comes to these comments/reviews, but surprisingly, I didn't find much to gripe about with yours! Typing games aren't usually my thing, but you managed to make yours pretty interesting. ^^
Funky tune to match the funky really cool graphics! A brilliant use of the theme and was really cute! Your score in the screenshot was really good!
Ahah thanks for playing, I'm glady ou enjoyed it that much !
Yeah I though too...and then my best friend did a beautiful 250 !!
Cool game, the only thing I would add is a sound notification or something to let the player know when the key-binds have changed. I kept losing because I did not know when the key-binds were changing then I had to study them again and it took me out of the zone at times. But I really like the games overall idea, it would fit mobile nicely!
Thanks for playing it !
That's a very, very good idea, I'll implement it asap !
And yeah, I count on probably releasing it to mobile !!
Nice aesthetics, enjoyable music, just loving it !
(you should fix close button on the main title in instructions)
Thank you !!
Oh goodness, I didn't see that bug :o will fix asap !
Hey I like the concept of your game, but just a heads up. You can keep spamming buttons after the game over screen in order to keep gaining points, so its very easy to cheat a high score (I got over 350 using this method). You may want to look into a fix for that :)
Hey, thanks for playing and for the bug report !
I actually noticed this bug...wayyy too late for me to correct it aha It is already firxed, and updated version will be pushed asap !
Really cool concept, and it was fun to play. I wanted to speed ahead a little but was held back and that was a little frustrating, but on point with the theme and the music was nice. I had a little trouble with the H button, but that was because of my keyboard not the game haha
Hey, thanks for playing and for your feedback ! :D
I get what you mean with the "was held back"...I really had a hard time giving that pinguin a good mix "animation / controls" feel..I'll improve it in further updates !
Great game! It's really fun and challenging!
Thank you for playing and for your feedback !
Best theme based game Ive seen in this jam! Very clever, thank you for that fun I had while playing it!
Thanks for playing it, I'm glad you enjoyed it ! :D
i will begin with the good, the game idea is pretty nice, the little penguin is cute too, not too difficult but also challenging at the same time, the music is not that bad either.
okay now where to begin, all the colors kind of hurt, the bloom would be nice if it could be turned off, sometimes i press a button to already go to the next platform but i have to wait for the whole animation to finish sometimes screwing me up.
Hey there !
Thanks for playing and for your constructive feedback !
You take the point on the colors, I feel like adding a way to turn off the bloom in a future update, that will be nice indeed ! Actually, the fact that the bloom could be a problem was one of my fears, and as such I had a lot of people play test the game before realease (at least ten or so I guess, which is 'a lot' from here !) and...to my surprise, none of them were even the slightest bothered by the bloom effect !
I will add a little button to turn it off in a future update, thanks ! For the animation, I spent a lot of time trying to find a good balance...not that easy !
wonderful! i will definitely follow your progress on the game can't wait for an update.
