Really enjoyed this one. The intro cutscene was a nice touch and set the tone well. The art and animations were brilliant and gave it that nostalgic 90s feel. Boss fights were fun. The controls were good. A solid platformer with a decent spin

Super impressive, I personally loved the Bird boss's second form. Everything was super clean! Great Work!
The Art is awesoooome. I really like Platformers, and this is one of my favorites!!!
The intro is the absolutely awesome! It reminds me of Day of the Tentacle, Sam’n’Max and others of this era. The tilemap could better fitting to the intro art but nice ideas with the spider web jump-pad for example.
Thanks for playing! I had so much fun writing the music for the intro and taking a dive into sound design for the first time. I used fox sounds (no foxes harmed, that's just what their pups sound like + digital manipulation) for the sounds of the bully once they're shrunk since that's the last time we see things from a normal perspective.
What a trip to the past. As a 90's kid, I appreciate the vibe of your game so much, this really brought up so many games with this style that I used to play growing up. Fun boss battles, too, I was not expecting the bird to transform hahaha
Also, fantastic cutscene at the start of the game, really good work all around!
If there's one thing I know about spider webs, it's that they're extremely springy and anything which lands in them is flung violently upward. :)
This game feels so much like it fell through a time portal from the 90's, it could absolutely have been a game released at that time. (Well the graphics are better than what could be managed then, but in terms of style and content.)
Very impressive intro cutscene which sets things up. Strong platformer gameplay with some light combat thrown in. I did find that jumping on most enemies was a much better tactic than the spit balls, including the buff bird. Not the final boss, naturally.
Having space be shoot instead of jump did throw me off sometimes.
YOU HAVE A FULL PIXEL ART CUT-SCENES!?! I'm amazed xD Really cool game and good idea for the theme!
