Yes - I'm new to game jams!

How does your game fit the theme?
Both the main character and the antagonist realized that if they wanted to change who they were, they just had to start, even if the world thought otherwise !

I'm so glad I saw this on Shovel's stream or I wouldn't have found this gem. This game is a great example that you can make a fun game even with simple assets and whatever you can make yourself if you're creative.

Developer

Thanks! It really motivates me to continue

This game is pretty fun and funny!

Developer

thannnnnksssssss

I adore this game, the narration is absolutely AMAZING, that was just so much fun! And loved the boss fight too hahah, so bizarre! congrats on your first game, very well done!

Submitted

This was awesome!

I don’t know if it was intended (and I dont assume so), but when you click the duck twice and then jump you have basically a triple jump with which you can just jump over a lot of things. I had like two audio files overlapping one another at one point from this haha.

Cool game though!

Oops ! Not intended 😅 thanks !

I can't believe how much fun I had with a game about an agent duck!
The narrative and story is fun and funny, the music and sounds are great, and everything is just so enjoyable...
The animations and the little jokes are all great as well.

The only problem I noticed was that in the final boss, after dying some times, the noodles and pizzas just didn't appear anymore.
If I'm being needy, it would be great if there were more different things in the background...

Great job! Really great, fun and just impressive for your first game jam submission.

Thanks you so much ! yes I ran out of time for polish everything 😅

I liked the game and dub congrats

Developer

Thanks !

I ran into an issue with a platform sliding forward each retry and I wasn't able to continue past that point. A major note:

  • Turn the music doooownnnn. It was so loud, I struggled to understand what was happening with the narrators. Sometime the voices were very loud, and others, they were almost completely drowned out by the music. For instance, the part where you teach the player they can click themselves for another jump - I had to learn that on my own because I couldn't hear them.

That being said, your game was clearly full of passion and it shows. Good job („• ֊ •„)੭

Thanks for the feedback ! I didn't have time to adjust the volume and add subtitles😅

Quackers! 


...What !? The Duck!? No like, wow! I wasn't expecting this! The simplistic graphics clashing with the shockingly high-res duck feels perfect for the overall tone of this game.  A shockingly fun puzzle platformer with a hilarious narration to boot! Most of my deaths were from trying to collect the pizza hahaha... The controls felt really good too! A nice good speed with a comfy and not too floaty jump! 

Some small feedback from me. Sometimes dying doesn't reset a few of the puzzle areas. But perhaps these could be used as speedrun strats? Also my laptop made it quite hard to click on the duck while airborne. 

...Quack? Quack.



Developer

Thanks you sooooo much 🥰 I wanted to work more on the reset and other final details, but I didn’t have time 😅

Submitted

I had so much fun with this game. The platforming was good and I really enjoyed the dialogue especially when the arguing started lol Great work! 

Developer(+1)

Haha thanks you so much 🥰

Submitted

Very fun game, it was a pleasure playing it. The last boss (I think it was the last one, the second microwave) was kinda hard, I tried it like 3 times and I was annoyed bcs I could not skip the dialogue. After the third try it was bugged like the duck wasn't moving at all. great game overall, good job!

Developer

Thanks Yeah, I was aware of that issue, but I didn’t have time to add a skip system. As for the character bug, I honestly have no idea where it’s coming from. Next time, I’ll spend more time making sure the game isn’t frustrating to play!

Submitted

ahahah guys this is really good! I found it a little bit hard to click on the duck while falling, but that's okay since it's part of the gameplay!

Moreover the music is great and I loved the voiceover!

Developer(+1)

thanks you so much ! I tried to make the duck's click hitbox generous, but I’ll definitely keep that in mind for next time!"

Submitted(+1)

Yep maybe to expand the hitbox could be a solution!

Submitted

What a fun and funny game! The music is great and the obstacles are very well placed. Good work

Developer

thanks !

Fun little game cant wait to see your next jam!


10/10 would turn microwave.png into an explosion.png (non transparent) again

Submitted (1 edit)

I really loved it, at some point I expected it to turn into some type of like Stanley’s Parable game idea xD The camera movements are super smooth and on point, and some subtle humor as you platform through the game really sells it for me, my final rating is silly/10 Would play again :D

Developer

Thaanksss 🥰🥰

Submitted

Loved it! The writing was hilarious and perfect to listen to as I platformed through the levels and I felt like the microwave boss was the perfect difficulty. Really good idea to have lives recover over time and I still only barely beat the final fight. I also liked the juxtaposition of the real life food art and microwave versus the rest, was a great choice.

Developer

Thanks you so much,I'm so happy to see that everything I had imagined in my head is actually working out!

Submitted

SO SO silly and charming theme/dialogue/everything. A super fun spin on a classic platformer!
I'm not sure if I missed an instruction at some point or if it's a bug, but I couldn't seem to jump over the wall after the second time meeting the microwave.
Still loved everything tho!

Developer

Thannkksss (a voice line Say that you can double jump if you click on yourself 👀👀)

DUCK!!!

*Crouches and tucks head into body*

Nicely implemented platformer. You have to use your noggin to get through.

Also it helps to be quack... I mean quick!

Submitted

Such a silly game! The dialogs are pretty funny, it's such a fun concept for a first game, I loved it! Gameplay is pretty straightforward... Just Get Started! Great job!

Developer

Thanks you so much !
