I absolutely love this and I would 100% play a full version of this game if you expanded it. Some parts are a little difficult for me on my laptop trackpad but that's my only gripe. No other notes. Well done.

Thanks for playing our game!! It was our very first game project and we're planning on making more in the future <3

Love the idea and the cute pixel art!

And I'm no longer scared of ducks.

Developer

Thank youuu!

Scholars have been asking this question for years, How to survive a duck. The only possible way to find out was to play this game.

Developer

Hhahaha thanks for playing!!

This is so funny and cute (I also love ducks in the real life although I agree then can look threatening sometimes)

Also, I did the game on mobile and was able to complete it without any issue. You might want to edit your page so it says the game is mobile friendly (that will get rid of the current disclaimer saying it's not)

Quack!

Developer

Aw, thanks!! We didn't design the game to be playable on mobile, so it might not work on every screen size, but we're glad you could do it on you phone!

The pixel art is so cute and I love all the different minigames in this entry. I am happy to have a new duck friend.

Developer

Thank you for playing!! We're happy the duck likes you now!

What an adorable game! Managing a mobile how-to guide while being chased by a duck is so creative! Also it felt good when it said the duck liked me for winning :) I do wish though that you could see the duck chasing you right behind, I love the little angry duck animation!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!! We are very happy you liked our game!

I feel so honoured that the duck likes me now <3

Love the concept and the art so much, it's absolutely adorable, and I love the little phone interface. I did panic during the first few tries, but I eventually made it to the finish line.

Developer

We are very honored that you enjoyed our game and that the duck now likes you <3

biscoitodecenoura, pennalu, I just played y'all's game, How to Survive a Duck, and this game is not only really relatable, but also impressive too. I just love the core concept of how you're a clumsy dinosaur and that you have to only use your mouse to remove the things that pretty much everyone in real life bothers. Also, the artstyle is EXTREMELY cute and the animations are very well done. However, the only critique I have with the game is the fact that when I click on some of the objects, they are either a little too finicky or imprecise. Such as if I'm trying to bring down the Settings on the dinosaur's phone, it took me a few tries, but eventually I got the hang of it soon. Overall, 4.75/5 stars! Really outstanding work, you two!

Also, biscoitdecenoura and pennalu, if you could play my game entry, Duckie 'n' Egg, and give feedback on it, I would be highly appreciative of you for doing so. This isn't self-promotion, by the way, but I can consider playing my game (and everyone else's, too!), in the 20 Second Game Jam 2025. Thanks a million and have a great and blessed day! ⭐💫☀️

Thank you so much for playing our game and for the feedback!! We are very happy for your kind words <3

I also played your game and left a comment there, congratulations on your submission!

Okay. This is a lot of fun! I love the art and the music and the gameplay. Some tasks confuse me, like the big leaf on the phone because it doesn’t move nicely when I click and drag.

But I now at least have a few handy tips and tricks for dealing with angry ducks.

Super cute! I enjoyed!

Yeah, we thought some of the puzzles might be confusing, but we'll take it as a learning experience for our next projects! Thank you for the feedback, and we're glad you enjoyed it!

Pretty cool song and graphics! I'm glad I survived the duck

Developer(+1)

Yay!! And we're glad you did it!!

Gorgeous art, lovely simple premise that was engaging to play.  I had the odd playthrough where I was told that the duck had caught me, but the timer had run out and I'd completed all the tasks up to that point, not sure if that was a bug or whether I was missing something. Great submission.

Developer

Thanks for playing our game and for letting us know about this bug, we'll take a look and fix it

Submitted(+2)

This is such a cute project! The whole concept of minigames while escaping a duck is such a crazy fun combination. Not something you see every day! You absolutely nailed it! :)

Developer(+1)

We are so happy you liked it!! Thank you <3

i love the art, it's super cute! gameplay is fun as well, i like sort of minigames where you have to dig through a phone while something disastrous happens in the background haha

Developer(+1)

Thanks!! We were inspired by the minigames in Mario Party to make our game, and we love them too!

Submitted(+2)

Oh my gosh, love the art style very much!!! And after several attempts, i really know how to survive a duck, thanks :)) Overall, such a fun game to play

Developer(+1)

Thank you <3 We're glad you survived the duck!

Art is great, but the game play takes a while to understand. Good Job on the submission.

Developer

Thanks! We thought the game might be confusing in some of the puzzles, but I'm glad you enjoyed the artstyle

Submitted(+2)

I love the art, it looks extremely professional! <3 It took me a while to understand how the game works, but I'm amazed by how you guys managed to include a whole story inside a 20 secs gameplay. Truly amazing game! 

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!! Since it was our very first game, we're really happy you enjoyed it <3
