This is very cute and obviously has a lot of character. It looks like you all had a lot of fun making it, and it shines thru in the designs and gameplay. 

Great job!

Submitted

This looks really unusual! Original idea and cool art. It's a lot of fun to play! I think this prototype could be turned into a weird and cool more long game.

Developer

Ha! It's definitely crossed our mind! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Submitted

Absolutely delightful artwork and delightful levels!

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it :) Thanks for playing!

I just loved it ! it was cool to search in every level the most efficient way to complete it, and jumping on the dragon head then on the text to shoot at the dragon after is just genius ! The music was great, the art and gameplay was super fun, what can i say exept well done guys ( and i played the supermarket level like 6 or 7 times )

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it and were so persistent! We would have added a save current level feature if we had time but didn't lol. And the Supermarket level is definitely my favorite! Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Really great game , the designs and sound are amazing , the gameplay is simple but lovable , like it ! 

Developer(+1)

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you :)

Submitted

Fun game concept, got as far as the dragon but couldn't defeat after 3 games, nicely balanced. Well done

Developer

Thank you! You were so close! Nice try :)

Submitted

Really cute and silly game with soooo much character! Definitely agree with others that the leg was a bit of a slog to defeat and I ended up restarting quite a few times thinking that I didn't u7nerstand what to do, but overall really nice job!

Developer

Appreciate the feedback and thanks for playing :)

Submitted

That was a really cool concept! And good work with the execution as well! Even the music was quite goofy and matched the game’s vibe perfectly. Great work!

Developer

Thank you so much! We worked hard on each aspect of the game :)

Submitted

This game has a lot of character! It was fun to play and see all of the strange places the child went to!

Developer(+1)

I'm glad you enjoyed it :) Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Great Game !! Throwing the shoes at the foot was hilarious. Definitely did not expect a foot to come from no where. I also liked jumping on the dudes belly. It was fun interacting with the environment in all the levels. I suck at games tho, so I had to restart a lot.

Developer

Ha thanks for playing! Each level has its own character for sure. I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Submitted

Sound good. Art fun. But whn i lost and had to go back to the start was tilting at first i was expectingo like a checkpoint, but later i figure outt the foot and the mouse so i didnt strugle to go back to my current progress. At the end it felt better. On point with the theme.

Developer

Thank you for playing! Yeah, we ran out of time to add a restart from current level feature, or extra hearts, but glad you persisted :) 

Submitted

i loved the visuals :) and the sfx are so funny! It's just a bit to hard to beat some enemies like the mice. They are too many! Can you rate my game?

Developer(+1)

Ha, yes we didn't have enough time to balance the enemies out. But I'm glad you gave it a try! Thanks for playing :) Yes I will rate now!

tough game but SO charming and i think the fact that it's difficult works in its favor. it really reminds me of old Friv games that i used to play over and over again until i won! the art and sound and everything really are so charming so well done on making such a creative game :)

Developer

Thank you so much for playing! And we appreciate the compliments! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Submitted

This game is so charming and downright addictive right off the bat! The art is so perfect, it reminds me so much of scribblenauts! I had a blast playing it, I only managed to get to the second level but I plan to continue to try and beat it! I just had to write my review real quick because this game is so amazing!

Developer

Ha thank you so much for the high compliments! I hope you can find the time to beat the game! It keeps getting better and better in my opinion :)

Submitted

The child-like hand-drawn art style gives the game a really interesting charm. Each level also brings a nice variety in environments, which keeps things feeling fresh and engaging.

I’m not sure if it was intentional mechanic, but when the dragon gets staggered, I took the chance to jump on top of it and keep stomping. Dragon couldn’t really do anything about it until it died. 

Overall though, really solid concept and presentation!

Developer

It was what we could manage with the time given haha I'm glad to hear you made it that far though! Thanks for the feedback and for playing! :)

Submitted

Beautiful Game!! I actually managed to beat the dragon after figuring out the optimal way to do certain things and got the game working pretty consistently!!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and being consistent enough to reach the ending! We appreciate that :)

Submitted

Loved how you implemented the theme, the game feel is definitely there! It was pretty tough though. I kept dying and had to restart every time, so I would've loved some health pickups. Still, the art and gameplay are honestly solid. Good stuff! :)

Developer

That was definitely on the list! But time was not on our side lol thanks for playing! 

Submitted

This game made me smile a lot! The aesthetic and art were funny and enjoyable. So creative!

The art and creative levels is definitely the strong suit, so I think it be good to remove anything that is tedious. In this case, what I found a bit tedious is the HP of the bosses. For example, I found having to stun the dragon boss more than 3 times was a bit much especially when the attacks didn't change. For me at least, the novelty is lost after the first playthrough, so dying and having to start all over was a sad ending for me. 

Overall, I still had plenty of fun playing your game! Great work

Developer

Thank you so much for the valuable feedback! It sounds like you enjoyed the game and I agree the difficulty could be balanced. Time was not on our side with finding a balance :P Thanks again for playing!

Submitted

Cute hand drawn art. I liked the breadsticks level and the belly jumping level the most.Really liked the comic book at home kind of feeling. Great job

Developer(+1)

Those were coins, not breadsticks 🤣 I'll take that as feedback haha. I'm glad you liked it though! The hand drawn art can certainly make a coin look like a breadstick lol. Thanks for playing :)
