Not sure why, but the grapple wasn’t working for me—both on the itch page and in the downloaded version. Visually though, I love the retro aesthetics, and it looks like there’s a lot to do in this game. It’s a shame I couldn’t get it to work haha!

this is my favourite penguin character from this jam

Unironically one of the best games of the jam. Full-featured and robust level design, a lot of hidden depth to the mechanics, (I LOVE the dive bouncing) and a level of cohesion that, from the perspective of my amateur self, feels impossible. AND you can play as Winston Churchill. I mean come on.

Im glad you like it!

Slick menu and sounds

Super slick soundtrack and I liked the sound-effects too "Let's run it back". Played as the bird obviously :D.  Well done!

Big 'Ol Ball is an inspired choice for a character slot.  I love the presentation, especially the character portraits. Getting a hang of the slick movement is really satisfying too!

A very interesting cast of character in this one. Naturally I played as Slick Man since he would appear to be the main protagonist, though there were lots of good options. I appreciate the polish that you put into your menus, it's cool that they animate to show the user's current selection.

Developer

Thanks! the menus were a major headache to implement, so i'm glad the work payed off.

Lol it felt like a fever dream at times which I think is the vibe you were going for, so nicely done! Reminded me of that LSD PS1 game

Ive never heard of the LSD game, ill have to check it out

I couldn't seem to get grapple to work in the web version? The presentation is excellent though, very unhinged, very Newgrounds era. Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! The presentation was a huge focus. The grapple will "lock on" to one of the pink gems if you're close enough and look at it. I just tested and it works for me.

Ahh I thought that must be it, I'll try again!
