I was here to check out what the funky boots were all about and left with a funky tune stuck in my brain :-D Thanks for sharing this fun platformer!
thank you!
as fan of high-speed platformers, i really like this game!! the gameplay was fun (despite some lags but i’m not sure if it’s the game’s fault) and artstyle is great. good job!👍
thanks!! (and it's the game's fault)
Really great take on the gravity mechanics and adorable gfx and funky music. The camera zooming was a great addition that added a lot to the gameplay. Well done - is this the Sonic killer? ;)
thanks a lot! i don't know avout any sonic killer i've never played it but i certainly don't mind you saying so haha
Super fun and strong execution here—I really liked the dynamic camera, too! One thing to look out for: I accidentally escaped through a hole in the ceiling during one of my runs and zipped right out of the level. Oops! Thanks for making and sharing your game—I really liked it!
oopsi sorry about that i thought i had patched every hole. i'm happy you still had fun, thanks!
Holes happen 😂
Animations and art style reminded of 90s/2000s cool mascots which just fits too well with this gameplay! Looks like a game based on a cartoon from that era. Very fun, only downside might be that the game lags in some places, but that might just be my PC problem, not game. Still, gameplay was awesome!
the lag is unfortunately the game's problem. and i don't really know what aesthetic i was going for besides a "funk vibe", so 90s/2000s cartoon is one i'll gladly get behind, thanks for those kind words!
A+ style! Great game, good job!
thanks!
I've never played a sonic game before and always thought that the fast paced system would be too overwhelming, but after playing your game, I'm considering to download the sonic game on my phone. Very fun and incredible
incredible indeed especially considering that i've never played a sonic game in my life haha. i realized only while i was developing it that it was a sonic-like, so i'm happy to know you've liked it to the point of wanting to try an actual sonic game! thanks!!
The Artstyle, speed, and animations make this game really polished! I especially love the animation where the main character jumps, hits the floor, and then turns into a ball.
Also funky boots is a really cool name :)
glad you noticed the jump-into-ball animation it was my favorite one to make!! and without it i don't think the speed would feel as good.
very happy with the name too thanks!
Really cool game! I love the sense of speed and the way the camera zooms out once you get moving is really good. The sections where you are zooming by and doing the gravity inversions were my fav. Really enjoyed the art style too. Awesome work!
thanks!
Like the style.
Nice mechanics
Numbers are very satisfying
thank you!
