I certainly didn't see that coming- I was expecting to get a jump upgrade at some point, but that was way better. "Rocket-jumping duck" is not a protagonist I thought I'd like nearly as much as I did in the end!
Thanks for reviewing and playing <3.
The moment I got the bazooka I immediately knew what to do. :-)
Very fun game, I love the quack button!
I'm so glad you liked the quack button :)
Yes! I forgot to mention, the music you chose is awesome. It’s my 2nd favorite song in this jam (1st is Megalovania remix from Planet Defender, so you are competing with Undertale here, just so you know).
A very satisfying game! Found it quite little challenging. Good job!
Thanks for playing :)
Funny and very well made game. I wishes the game was voice acted. But overall a good jam game. Well done.
Thanks for taking the time to play and review :)
Rocket Jumping + Goose game. Love it.
Big fan of platformers with a puzzle element.

I had so much fun with this one! It would be a great idea for a game like 'Getting over It'
Thanks for playing :)
Just make it prettier. Maybe just some lighting or something. Otherwise a terrific and clever game that made me smile everytime I blasted away.. The duck could be a star - haha - game has lots of personality that is rarely seen especially in a jam.. Giving me ideas!
I totally agree that the visuals need a lot of work - it's definitely my biggest weakness as a game developer. I really appreciate your kind words and it warms my heart that it made you smile. Thanks so much <3
Wow! Very cool game!
I enjoyed platforming through the level.
Also, the relationship between the duck and the narrator felt really nice. That duck is such a lovable character!
Congrats, dude!
Thank you for the kind regards and for taking the time to play. I really appreciate it <3
It's a really fun game, and this *Quack* is the one of the best part of the game (the second best part is the BAZOOKA)!
For the gameplay, it remembers me the old game : Team Fortress Classic on the conc map. But it is so old, so maybe no one know my reference xD
Anyway, well done!
It's definitely partially inspired by Team Fortress, so maybe we're both just super old ;). Thanks for taking the time to play and review, I really appreciate it!

Hey - I watched through the full playthrough and it gave me a ton of insights into the game, so thank you for that first off. I totally agree with you in visuals - it's currently my weakest game-dev skill and all feedback is greatly appreciated. Finally thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review, and for streaming my game! Much love <3
Every idea in this game is great! I think each animal character in a video gamecshould have a dedicated sound button
If there is an animal character we as the players deserve the right to spam their noise. Thanks for the review and for taking the time to play :)
This is a great game with a nice narrative. The character is cute. Love the "unexpected" part of the game.
Thanks a ton! <3
