Nice hommage to the GameBoy artstyle and the game really got me tensed as I didn't want to lose that one life ahah! Good job, it was a good run! :)

Cool little game! Love the intro, and the atmosphere is really nice. The one life mechanic is interesting, but I wish respawning was faster (maybe a way to skip the intro?)

Overall, good stuff!

Developer

Thank you!

I note ideas for improvement πŸ˜‰

The art and the music all go together nicely! Gameplay felt good. Because there is only 1 life, it would be nice to restart at the beginning of the level and bypass the opening to reduce waiting.

I got to the far right and I think that might have been the end of the level? It was a fun play experience. Nice job!

Thanks for your advices!

Yes, you are right: the end of the level is on the right.

I like the astatic and the intro was cool. The controls were challenging, but overall good game.

I think the audio and graphics are really well pieced together, giving game cool retro vibe (the music really slaps). I think platforming would be better with more novel approach to make the game easier. Cool game overall.

Thank you for your comment!

I like the presentation but it is hard with the player. The retry may be more agile.

Developer(+1)

Thank you.

It’s true and that’s the goal.

There is only one level: that's why it's difficult with player and enemy.
