made a 12:44 run, fake gamer sorry no but this is seriously high quality! the movement is clean, the sound is crunchy, the levels are tight, the vibe is cool, the blob’s sacrifice will be remembered. Super good, had a blast. I got a little mixed up with the controls, though: jumping and dashing being on different buttons felt a little awkward, I’d try to dash on the ground or jump on the air and get myself killed a few times. i’d have found this on kongregate or armorgames back in the day and played the hell out of it. Incredible work for four days!

I finished in 8 minutes and I wanted MORE! It was actually such amazing movement, very well  tuned and felt very responsive. The Sound effects matched perfectly and it had SO much game juice, in the best possible way. The art was simple but didn't feel lacking in any way. The fact that you also had time for a little outro animation which is crazy. The theme was very well implemented, but at some levels I didn't really need to use that mechanic so it felt a little forgotten about. I would 100% pay for a longer version on steam, very VERY well done!

Super cool mechanic. Def jumped in difficulty from level 1 to 2 dramatically. Good job with the pacing. Really enjoyed. Great entry!

a cute platform game with nice fun mechanics, was confused at first but kept going when i got the hang of it. it really fits the theme :D

Submitted

Really fun stressful puzzle platformer! It kinda reminds me of super meat boy and jump king.

The art style of the orb and the world was also really nice and cozy. I really liked the animation work and colors with the orb. It felt really responsive.

Nice job! Keep it up!

Submitted

Fun game, very nice controls. Cool take on the theme. Good job!

Submitted

Submitted

Very simple game with interesting mechanics! Gotta say it's VERY good for a solo developer, keep it up!

Btw, if you have, check out and rate our game;)

Developer

I just played your game and loved it! Congratulations!

Submitted

Found it really fun! Concept is creative, and the gameplay is fun and well-made! It was so cool dashing around, reminds me a bit of the silksong mechanism if you know what i mean :)

Developer

Yeah I got inspired by it, I'm glad someone noticed :)

Let's gooo, thank you so much!

Submitted

Really well done, I had a lot of fun playing. Even tough the artstyle is nothing major, it fits the game really well. Please add browser support tho 😅

Developer

Thanks! I tried adding a web version, but unfortunately it didn’t run well.

Submitted

Next time, maybe use your own sound effects like everyone else instead of getting them from a website. Kinda breaks jam rules but oh well.

Since I don’t know much about audio and I’m a solo developer, using external audio assets was really my only option. Sorry if that bothered you in any way.

Just to be clear, I made sure to follow all the jam rules — every asset I used was made for this exact purpose, and I have the right to use them.

By the way, the audio in your game was great! I really hope I can create something like that in just 4 days someday.

Well done, Incredibly satisfying movement! The extra polish layer you have added really shines through

Developer

Thank you!!

Stupidly fun for how simple it is. The sound design is SO satisfying, and the gameplay feels incredibly fluid. Also incorporates the theme in a really fun way. My favourite from the jam game so far :D Please make more levels !!!

Developer

Aww I'm so glad you liked it! Thank you so much for your words!

Submitted

Wow, really interesting idea! It is a juicy and fun game to play, and the concept is really cool. Also, the visuals make the playing process engaging. I like it!

Submitted

Really love this game! The movement is so satisfying and fluid, and the mechanics are very fun! Took me 16 minutes to beat! Would love to see this expanded :)

Submitted

Very interesting concept, The controls felt intuitive to me which was nice. 

Submitted

I had fun playing the game, but I think that having limited lives and the death mechanic not being as interwoven into the gameplay could have made for some cases where you softlock yourself because you needed to die at a specific point, although in my gameplay using it was mostly unnecessary. Almost makes me wonder if it would've been better to give unlimited death orbs, because I think that the time sink into setting up the points outweighs the help that they provide in traversing the levels.

Submitted

That final level was sick! I love games like these. That sort of "punishing but fair" type of platformer. Do you plan to continue it after the jam? If so I'd love to play a full game of this!

Developer

Thank you! I never expanded a jam game before, but who knows!
