Fun game! Good job. I hope you add more to this game in the future :)

Developer

Glad you liked it! I was thinking about adding more since there was some stuff I did not have time to add

who knows maybe I will

It fun but it feels like you dont choose your progress and so if feels more like every yellow is just end of level

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Really good graphics and polish. The only thing is that gravity feels very low.

Really cool game! I loved the visuals, the yellow coins maybe needed more functionality but everything else is fine! Good job!

P.S. try my game if you don't mind ;) https://itch.io/jam/wowie-jam-3/rate/940634

really cool idea that fits the topic of the jam super well, graphics were simple but nice :)

Developer

Thanks for taking the time to play it!

A really cool idea! I liked how you incorporated menu screen elements into the game with like the credits. I think a lot of the instructions are pretty intuitive so I don't really think a lot of the text is necessary. Maybe keep the first few just so you ensure the player gets the hang of it. Still, I had a lot of fun playing and only wished there was more to play.

It did kinda end short sadly 

who knows maybe I'll add more levels

Very cool! Love the simplistic + post proc art style, classic. Great polish. One thing is, it's kind of inconsistent which glowing orange fields kill you and which give you abilities - it's not really messing with fail states if they are two entirely different entities that just look the same right. That said, the game is lovely and super fun.

Developer

Thanks dude I appreciate the feedback! 

It appears you accidentally posted the same comment twice so I just deleted the extra one

Sorry! Ya no worries :)

Short but good! Love the player trail effect. The part when you unlock the tall jump is really clever level design, I was so relieved that I wouldn't have to go the same way the whole time :)

Glad you liked it! the trail effect is pretty cool lol

The graphics are extremely simple, but the post processing makes it a lot better and polished! This platformer game is also super fun!

While the graphics are simple,  the effects really make the game look great. It looks and sounds really polished and  is overall quite a good game.

Developer

This means a lot to me! thanks so much (:

Submitted

Look svery polished, nice example of how to transform simple graphics into a nice Game

Developer

Thank you for the kind words!

and I agree games don't need any fancy art to look good you can just use basic geometric shapes

Submitted(+1)

A very polished platformer

I'd appreciate if you played my game!

ITS Nice But If You Made A Main Menu And A Pause Menu And Degrees Speed It Will Be A FULL GAM
