I like the art in this game. Really emphasizes about using your brain to fill in the gaps of what is shown through pixel art
Great. The animations are smooth and beautiful! The gameplay is fun and challenging!
There is a bug that causes you to get stuck if you restart while looking through the telescope.
The art, presentation and physics in this game is very good
However, the level design is too hard. For example, why does the breezy level have spikes in it? Dealing with the wind element is hard enough let alone randomly dying because you went too far left or right.
I think reducing the spike hit box is a must - yes they are not pixel perfect, but they are still very unforgiving
I got as far at level 11, but by that point my hands started hurting from tensing too much so I had to stop...
Beautiful game, but I think its easy to forget that the people who play it won't have the same familiarity and practice as the developers; it's always a good idea to scale the difficulty back a bit, especially for platformers
That's really good advice actually, thanks for pointing that out. I see that I will, to a point, always be better than a new player since I'm familiar with the game while they're not. I see that having to make some levels more forgiving, and reducing the spike hitboxes will make the game feel more fair.
I'll keep your advice in my head while designing other platforming-related games! Hopefully you were at least able to have some fun though :3
Nice game! The movement and the animations are really nice with the water particles and everything. Congrats
The game looks great, and the movement feels really good.
Oh this is SO FUN! Reminds me of old Flash precision platformers, and it executes on the principles well (short, quick, and brutal). The art and animation is gorgeous, and it looks so nice at that low frame-rate!
Love it, love it, love it! Great work!
I definitely struggled at first with the timing of hitting the bubbles. But otherwise this is a really fun platformer! Great sprites as well, the mermaid especially looks fantastic!
I like the the style and gameplay, but I wish there was a "slow" or "easy" mode available. I'm just not that good at platforming. :-D
The water effect is sooo cool, love the bobbing up and down. Awesome game!
The way the animations turned out, it really looks like there’s water physics, it looks awesome. Congrats on the game.
As for the water itself, there *are* water physics actually! Well, I'd call them pseudo-water physics than anything, but yeah, I'm glad how they turned out to be.
Thanks for playing my game, too!! ^^
The core mechanic is quite fun and and dont quite remember seeing something like this before. Devs threw some some nice level design too. I would say that the hitboxs could be a little more forgiving.
Although I did try making the hitboxes smaller for the spikes, I guess I didn't account that for other objects of the game, such as the vines or the mermaid's slash attack lol ¯\¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thank you for playing my game though >< I appreciate it
