Really like the art and audio, the controls are really hard to get a grasp of, which makes it fun once you finally figure it out. Not that original but it fit the theme really well! Great short game.

This was a fun little game! It took a couple tries to figure out some of the mechanics and goals, but that's not too big of an issue for a shorter game like this. 

Oh and don't ask how many tries the last level took me :p

Developer(+1)

Haha, thanks for powering through, and for stopping by! Yeah, I agree it could use a bit more directness in terms of guidance, and maybe some more levels to gradually ramp up in difficulty so the player is more prepared for the last one. Thanks for the feedback :)

Much easier once I figured out you can use the controller.. and that the blue stuff was water :D

Developer

Ah that's great! I didn't have time to test with controller input, glad it worked sufficiently!

The last level felt like a big difficulty spike compared to the rest, but still fun!

Very cute game! Well done with the difficulty level - hard but not too hard. I got stuck a little on the third(?) level because I thought the goal was to knock out the other little guys and I was just ignoring the puck haha that might've just been me though. Also, I love a game jam game that tells you how close you are to the end. Well-made game!

Developer

Nice, thanks for playing, and for the great feedback! I could definitely make that clearer in the level design, something to learn from for sure :)

This was fun. Great use of the theme.

I really liked this game! It was simple enough to understand but complicated enough to keep me playing. The player movement felt really good and fit the theme nicely, great job!

Cute! I especially liked the one long form level where the camera scrolled with you. I'd like to see more of that!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing, and I'm glad you enjoyed it! Agreed, some more scrollable levels is a great idea, I had fun making that one :)
