Liked it more than I though I would! I've played a lot of “hamster platformer” games on the jam, but this one actually has a pretty engaging spinning mechanic. Jumping is a bit tricky at first, but you get used to it quickly. The levels are pretty good, too, and the difficulty is well-balanced. The art is really cute, and the hamsters are hilarious. Good job!

Developer

Thanks for checking my game out!  I really apreciate it

Very solid entry. I found it a little funny that you explicitely stated to use a controller and then the game didn't support controllers (I think, or mine is broken). There was also one time when I was yeeted of the screen and got softlocked. Otherwise, though, this was very enjoyable, ecent enough humor and nice aesthetics. Well done!

Developer

Oh the controller was just for the joke about using a hamstur/mouse (I should of said something like a "special controller"), sorry for the confusion

I also should of added a reset button but I didn't have the time

Thank you very much for the feedback!

I absolutely love how you control the hamsters in this game! It felt really consistent, smooth, and satisfying. My favorite hamster is definitely the orange one on the splash art for the game. His run cycle is so cute! Well done :)

The most creative controls out of all the games I played so far! Loved the variety of things to control and all the little hamsters

Cool design and a nice, consistent style. I’m just wondering who put the dynamite in the cage.

I hope I get to see more of this game I reallt liked it even tho I sucked at it.

Loved everything about the art style in this, all the different hamsters were just adorable and the level designs had some really fun challenges. Very intuitive controls in my opinion even if I'm not great at platformers XD The sound design was also really good.

Overall really good and unique! I feel that sometimes the hamster goes flying with a tiny spin and other times feels more normal, dunny if its my mouse position or something else. But I had fun with it. Well done! a death counter could be a nice addition. :)

Loved the art style! Wasn't expecting the pink material to be so bouncy, it was a very fun experience!

Love the art and general vibes haha. Control scheme is unique and works well! I like the speedrun emphasis too.
