I enjoyed this game, even though i didn't get very far at all, awesome job! ^^

A very fun and addicting little experience! I really liked the shatter effect when hitting obstacles, it added a lot of impact, it also took a bit of trial and error to get the hang of things, but once I did I was quickly advancing through the levels, though I couldn't finish the last level :'  .Overall, I had a great time playing this!

Developer

Thanks for playing glad you liked it! Level 10 is pretty hard even I sometimes struggle with it. I have updated it to make it a little bit slower on level 10 and will upload the updated version when the jam is over

Awesome entry!! I got stuck at level 10 but had a great time playing throughout. The art style is super charming, the lil platformer guy is rad as hell. The little bits of polish like the glowing door or the black screen player silhouette as a transition add a lot overall too. The main mechanic is very creative and well-implemented and the lack of control over the player is an interesting twist on the platformer genre that lends to a lot of fast paced puzzle solving moments that are quite fun. A couple minor critiques are that I wish there was an instant restart option (such as pressing R) to immediately try a level again when you know you have lost already, and that I wish there was some way to control the camera and pan around the level a bit as there were a few moments towards the end where I couldn't see my next step and it felt frustrating. All in all, you absolutely nailed the theme with the visuals and gameplay working together wonderfully.

Thanks for the awesome feedback! I tried to make level 10 a bit easier for my next update by reducing player speed slightly and adjusting the cam. As far as the door glow goes, I just added some gaussian blur on a white copy of the door in photoshop. The black screen silhouette is a 4k image with a transparent cut out of the player and I just shrink it in and expand it out. since reading your feedback I have added a restart button (R) and on some levels (not all) I have added some look ahead on the camera. Ill upload the changes when the jam ends. Thanks so much appreciate it

Very creative! I had a lot of fun with this one. Sometimes I felt like the little dude should have walked up the path I made for him, but he’d go the other direction instead. For me it seemed smoother when he went left, but going right he sometimes got caught on the edge of the path.

Aside from that (which might just be me), I really enjoyed all 10 levels. Levels 5 and 10 were the most challenging for me! I loved how you added enemies and the pin needles as obstacles. Very well done!

Thanks for playing glad you liked it. If the doll walks into the corner of a patch he turns around. I used box colliders for the patches, it might have been a bit smoother if I rounded off the corners by using capsule colliders instead. Thanks for valuable feedback!

Kudos to u, good submission! I enjoy how aggresive the death animation is while keeping it SFW.

Developer

Thank you, tried my best to keep it kid friendly

I really love the idea, and the main guy looks so goofy + the mustache mode is perfect addition to this game xD

Developer

Thanks for playing. Yeah, after watching Manisha's streams I had to add in a moustache mode

This was really polished.  great job

Developer

Thank you!

Really solid gameplay. The audio was pretty extreme though. Thanks for the game! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Yeah wasn't going to put any detail into dying but because I had some spare time I did. Option to lower the SFX as a quick and easy way to mute it

Submitted(+1)

9:43 total time! Love the moustache mode!

Developer

Nice score! Thought it'd be a nice easter egg

Submitted(+1)

Wow, very polished and fun game. Maybe loose animation and sounds could be more kids friendly. 

Developer

Could maybe have added a kids mode to disable death mechanics

Fun game! Would be cool if the time slowed down when you are trying to patch the platforms

Developer

Good idea, this would make it easier too
