cool how you had a reveal with the controller page coming into view with the camera or as your character moves off the barrel. from the look of the game i was able to intuit that i should move without instruction, though the console controller when i wasn't using one threw me off a bit, why not draw the mouse as well so you have that in visual form? also found it a bit hard to read (can climb other monkeys) it kinda looked like "icon club" until i got real close.

the toy design of the ape mates is quite fun to me!! in the screenshots it's cute to see them arranged in playful arrangements, like a kid has been playing with them. the movement of turning over like a toy and spam clicking to jump off each other seems silly in a charming way, and concept of sending out more ape mates to help each other up seems cool and pal-like. although, i do suck at 3d movement, so unfortunately i kept losing my monkeys on the floor and got too impatient to go very far.

I love this concept so much omg! Please take this further! Its a little repetitive and frustrating but reminds me of 'I am Bread' in the best way possible!

I love the concept of the gameplay, but in practice it's very repetetive. I think the momentum of the movement is quite fun, but it could really use a shadow so you can tell where you're going to land.

Controls are way too messy with such physics, but the gameplay idea is cool!

Bonanza! Managed to do it in 21 monkeys, I really like the idea but the controls are super floaty.
It would have been nice to have a key to pin your monkey maybe, to focus more on the building instead of the jumps.

Good job!

Tough to control even on controller, but it's a very funny game. I love Barrels of Monkeys, cool seeing a game based on it! Great work!
