Love the look of this game - the duck and the trail he/she leaves behind. I'm pretty terrible at precision jumping, so I wish this started off a bit easier. But, overall, I thought you did a good job with this platformer.

Simple and cool! And you got duck too lol. Mechanics are smooth which is critic for platform games and liked the tail effect.
Simple but very fun and challenging platformer! I really like the ground sprites!!!
An enjoyable platformer, love the character and the great music, and the effects when landing and when moving in the air are amazing.
`The controls feel good. my only complaying is that the dash button wastes a dash doing nothing if you dont press a directional button
I accidentally left my comment on the actual game page lol my bad. But anyway:
First of all I would kill and die for this duck.
Asides from that my only feedback would be that the dash on the down key feels a little unintuitive, maybe use something like shift instead?
Then again, controls are massively subjective things, so I could be wrong!
Great platformer. The controls feel great and I can easily land on tiny platforms and go through tiny gaps. But I wish it had some checkpoints so I don't have to go back to the starting point every time I die. And I think the trail following the player flickers in the top left corner when you die? Not sure why. But still, very great job!
Very cute little duck )
Dash was challenging for me - always plummeting me down into an abyss. Need more practice
This was a really fun platformer. I like the dash mechanic and the duck character is very cute. I like the challenge of the game, but some checkpoints would have been really nice for how punishing it is with all the single tile jumps you need to get the duck into. Overall really enjoyed this tho!
Great platformer! Cool soundtrack, and the mechanics aligned with the Jam Task really well!

Hey ducky! The jump and double jump feels great and the impact screen shake adds some pretty cool juice. I found the key binding for the dash to the down arrow a little confusing, but that’s easy to change; the issue I had is that I do not know why I’d use the dash given that it’s not too long and I could probably reach most areas with the double jump instead of the dash; that’s something that may require some careful level design to create interesting puzzles. Great job overall.
