This was so incredibly cute and fun! I really genuinely had a great time playing. I love how actual skill is required, so the player must iterate and become better with each playthrough. Really neat!
The art, sound effects, and music were all great and cohesive! I found it so charming and sweet, mostly because I just love how cute the duck is :) This is really impressive for being your first game jam game!
One thing I do want to mention is that I don't think the shield worked for me in the tutorial level. I kept walking past it, jumped up to grab it, etc. but it just wouldn't activate. All of the shields did work in the actual game level, though! Also, I believe there may have been a writing error in the tutorial that says "the clock is in the top right corner," but I the timer/clock is in the top left corner :) Otherwise, really really stellar!
I think it actually fit the theme really well, even if it wasn't super obvious in the mechanics. Great job!
