Very cute and iconic artstyle! I particularly liked being able to try out the controls during the menu screen to test things out.

Developer

Thanks! I'm happy you liked that. I tried to make it intuitive, failed mostly but tried lol.

HOLY COW ! i'm jazzed about the art. KEEP MAKING GAMES, major league material

Really cute art! it's funny that you can almost fly jumping

Developer

Thanks! Theoretically eventually babybird on his back would be flapping their wings while you were jumping but didn't get there before the timeline.

I like the concept and the chill vibes of this! A bit of a fade or a color shift would go a long way in differentiating foreground from background.

Developer

Thanks!

Nice sprite! Very relaxing. The movement took some time to get used to. It's a little bit hard to tell what is a platform or a climbable tree, more visual cues would be nice.

Lovely game with nice art and nice music! The movement felt a little unresponsive, probably because Bob accelerates a bit slow. Also, I gave up my first run after finding the key because I couldn't find where to go, only on my second run did I try to climb up the trees. I think it could have been a bit clearer that climbing is possible, but other than those 2 points I like it so far :)

Developer

Thanks! First attempt at making a game, I'll work on the movement a bit more.

Very difficult!

I loved the art. Very chill music.  Nice animations, it played well and smooth.
There seems to be a climb limit put on the player, but it's not time (as far as i can tell), so I was never sure when i was going to fall or not. 

A few bugs as mentioned below but nothing too bad, though I couldn't help but feel like the character jump was a tad too floaty. I took damage a few times because he didn't jump fast enough to clear their heads in time. Maybe I just need to get good though :)

Very challenging! 

The only feedback is it could use an "Exit Game" button!
(When done playing and on the Home screen)

Love the original Art, and the movements were fluid!

The Characters were very unique as well as the story Idea!

wow that the best artstyle I see in this gameJam so far and chill music but have a little bit of bug like dead animation loop, dead enemy can still do damage and to be continuted scene freak me out. but overall pretty good

Developer(+1)

thanks! There’s lots of “bugs” I’d like to work out of the system hehe. For some reason it just wouldn’t play death animations.

Very cute music and graphics. I got stuck in the area with two rocks. But it was fun to play :)

Developer(+1)

thanks! I’ll have to look for those two rocks lol. Didn’t realize I was also making traps.

After the guy asking about a key, there's a small rock and a big rock, but I pushed them and lost them in the thorns! :D my bad.
