Love the aesthetics of this game and attention to detail like the falling petals / snow effect. I can tell that a lot of effort went into making this game & the level design. Swapping the snowmen and chomping flower was an interesting mechanic.
I have to say I love the goose's animated sprite, and the cherry blossom was a very nice touch that was added, and when they switch to snow during wintertime, it is amazing! Switching seasons was a fantastic gameplay mechanic, and I loved the scenery and the animation that you created! Certain platforms only working in certain seasons is genius and fits with the shifting realities theme! I like all the different platforming mechanics in the game! A few notes I have are that the music doesn't loop (it gets very repetitive quickly) and when I die, it restarts the scene. Maybe a checkpoint? Would've loved to see music change during seasons and sound effects. Also, I can get infinite coins because the coins respawn again (and coins don't do anything; I suppose maybe add a feature where you can use the coins to buy something, perhaps). Also, in the death scene, I suggest adding a death sprite animation. Another thing I wanted to mention is perhaps improving the camera by making it fixed in some areas because it's too zoomed in, and platformers usually have areas where they show you the entire scene for easier player navigation. The area with the 4 snowmen was challenging, and I gave up on that area, although I wish I had continued beyond that. Perhaps add a checkpoint there? A very important suggestion too is perhaps adding like "/5 crystals" collected so players know which level or how far they are in the game for more motivation. It's an awesome game and has amazing potential! I loved it a lot, and I know I was critical of it, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a great game, and you should be proud of it! Splendid work!
The game is very pretty in terms of art style; the falling roses in springtime really won me over! That said, I have to say I really missed the coyote time between platform jumps. If it had been included (or extended, if it was), it would have made the gameplay much more satisfying and responsive. The core mechanic of changing seasons was widely used in this jam, but let me tell you, this game definitely made the best use of it, at least out of the games I've reviewed so far (about half the submissions). Excellent work! It is to tell that you put a lot of effort into it <3
love main idea, enemies and main character
Really love the particles system and switching seasons was implemented flawlessly! The game was also very fun, very great work!
Art was great! I had snowmen appear in the spring for me once but loved switching seasons, could see the concept pushed further. Good job!
Yeah there is definetely some problem with scaling, but the controls are responsive and switching realities is almost instant.
Switching season is a great idea. Also, these animations are amazing!
Switching seasons felt amazing!
such a delight to play! reminds me of old mario games. the music was pleasurable to listen to as well, feels exactly like the turn from winter into spring. excellent work :)
