This game may seem cute on the surface, but... yeah. no it's just really cute. Good level design, FANTASTIC art, and I love the audio as well. Great job!

This is such a beautiful looking game, I really like your art style. The worm is very cute and I almost felt sad fighting him! The sound design is amazing too! I really like the mechanic of the exploding egg - I had issues with getting myself killed a few times before I got the hang of it but I really enjoyed it!


Thanks for joining our jam again :)

Incredibly well polished visuals for a 48h game! And the contrast between its cuteness and the fact that your explosive eggs can kill you was quite hilarious to figure out! Congratulations it really is a great platformer!

i liked the gameplay and the art is cute!

In general, I liked the game a lot, the only thing I didn't know was how to break the iron spikes, so I had to figure out how to fix it, and that happened, it created an infinite ladder of explosive eggs hahahaha which made the game more fun

Developer

The ladder of doom :-D I just tried. When I spam the space key, I can  stack 4 at max. It's a pretty nice view up there.

Really solid game! Visuals and audio were on point, and I thoroughly enjoyed the puzzle aspect of the game.

Your visuals are gorgeous ! I really love the whole aesthetic of the game. 
Great job on that !

Super cute visuals! Other than the last barrier (I couldn't seem to get that extra egg with the [P] button--maybe a plug-in in my browser is in the way), all the obstacles pushed me in a direction that seemed intended. Nice explanation of the mechanics throughout :)

An Egg-Blocker... 🤔

First of all, this game is *stunning*. The lighting, colors, and artwork are beautifully done and give this game a great aesthetic! The core mechanic is also really cool and well implemented, and I'd love to see it expanded sometime. Really creative take on the theme and congrats on the awesome product 😀

Also, I have to ask--did Humane Tiger sign up to be represented as that beetle?? lol

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your kind and encouraging words! Really appreciate.

Regarding the beetle :-) We have this tradition that each team member is represented by one character of the game we make. Normally I do this  first-come-first-served thing and take what is left. This time, too little time was left, so I just decided myself (every now and then there has to be a reward for the one making the game page, right?). And so I grabbed my rhino beetle. It fits, he is on the cozy side of life, little can ruffle him - that's  for me!

In one of our games I even was a duck - because we only had 2 garden gnomes  🤣

Hahaha this is great! Thank you for the in depth explanation 🤣🤣

Great art and audio! I like the core mechanic and how you managed to make a lot of different challenges with it. Couldn't find the 3rd egg though :O

Very good game and great DA too !

Well done !

The cutest game i played so far, the music is great too fits with the rest of the game, Great work!

Submitted(+1)

Great graphics and animations! I love the bouncy feeling. The game is short though and there might be a missing third egg.

Developer

In the rush of last minute publishing it seems like one egg got lost. BUT do not despair, because there is a secret key that was meant for testing. When you come to that point with too many traps, you can press [P] to get an extra egg.

Submitted

Spring is there :) Nice graphics and interesting game mechanics, well done!

Submitted(+1)

Great game and cute artstyle. It's like BomberMan turned into a platformer game and is a very cute Chicken. I also couldn't find the 3rd Egg though if there is one.

Oooh! I'll try that. Thank you!

WHERE IS THE THIRD EGG!??!?! HUHHHHHH

Developer

Can't reach our dev. She was so exhausted after these intense 2 days - she probably just switched off and put her feed up.

Anyways, I  fond a message on our Discord, there is a "secret key". When you press P (like... [P]onus... egg...?) you get one egg for free. It was meant for testing - now I  declare it being our bugfix  ðŸ¤£

The game is quite challenging, likely due to the physics, but it has a cool concept. It reminds me of "Chicken-Spawn," another game from the game jam. The music is pretty cool too. Keep up the good work !
