Wow, the nostalgia hits like a truck! The thumbnail, the art style, the sounds, the music, the gameplay... You just threw me back to the glorious N64 era, taht was amazing XD!
The gimmick is interesting ^^. I'm not sure I was supposed to destroy the rock during the first loop, otherwise "big monkey" doesn't seem useful, but maybe I miss something?
But whatever, this was absolutely beautiful, I enjoyed it from start to finish. The level of polish is insane. I loved the "glitch sprite" effect on the coin, it really adds to the effect of the loop not being "intended" (well, it is, but you know what I mean xD).
After my first run, I wanted to go for 99 coins, but I got softlocked 2 times:
- First time, I finished the first loop and, when I went through the door, my character cliped under the ground, out of bounds, floating in the air. BWT, there is a coin floating in that nothingness, for some reason xD.
- Second time, I died, but I guess I attacked at the same time, so my character couldn't move or jump anymore, just attack.
Maybe I'll attempt the 99 coins later. But in all cases, that was a fantastic game, congratulations =)!
