Great work! I only got 20/21 seeds, not sure where I missed one, in just over 9 minutes. The level design felt very unforgiving in an intentional way, with "checkpoints" in the way the stage was designed, but even still there were opportunities to lose that progress later. It felt kind of like playing "Getting Over It" but with the controls of "Super Monkey Ball" in that way. The sounds, music, and Z's gave it a nice, relaxing, sleepy-time vibe that kept it from feeling too frustrating. Nice work!
neat little hampter game, dont have much to say about it (except maybe mouse locking, which you seem to have fixed), just a really nice looking and sounding game

Nice game!!!!, I could get only 6 seeds in 8min 🤣🤣, it was nice to play, movements are good, maps are nice, music is great, though I could not find the Easter Egg in this game
super nice 3d platforming game with creative movement! only problem i had was the mouse wasnt fixed so i was working with a fairly limited range of view
The controls are very nicely tuned, at first the mouse wasn't locked and I was forced to play backwards half of the time. On the following playthroughs the mouse did lock.
The graphics are pretty simple and so is the audio.
The spinning ball is quite a creative and fun idea.
And I also beat your time with 3:06.99, although a sub 3 min run should be possible with extra attempts
Overall it's quite fun, but the visuals, audio and story are very simple.
wow, crazy time, good job and thanks for feedback!
The controls are good. But I cannot complete the game, at some point in the second area I get stuck between a box and a plank and I couldn't jump because I was in the air. Maybe you could define some checkpoint to be able to reset the player's position when something like that occurred. I don't mean that you should put a lot of checkpoints, but at least an option to reset the position at the beginning of the area could be fine. The alternative is modify the layaout to ensure that the holes are big enought to prevent ball stuck.
A part of this, the layout of the levels is good and at least in the beggining, the game feels fair and balanced, that those games usually are abusing of that to make the player rage
thank for feedback<3
My only real complaint is that the mouse did not get fixed to the game, and thus limited my camera movement. The game was charming, worked well, and would be fun to try again to go for a better time... but not until the camera is fixed.
Note: I streamed this game on youtube.
thanks a lot! will hop on stream and rewatch! great job finishing the game <3!
Interesting game, the map looks cool and I like how wide it is, the controls aren't as forgiving, but aren't too hard either. I liked the calm music, but the visuals could be better. There was a bug with the camera where it would sometimes randomly shift though.
The premise of the game is so fun and cute! The controls felt great and I had no issue whatsoever with anything. I would like +1 somebody's comment on making the maps smaller. if not, use visual cues (lighting/colors/shapes) to help the player know where to go in order to pass the level. Great job tho!
tea, its true about navigation, mandatory stuff and will think how to better implemet this) thx a lot for feedback!
The gameplay reminded me of games like Only Up, great game :)
Really cool game! I was only able to get around 10 seeds before I gave up lol. I'm not a huge fan or parkour games, but I recognize it is very well made!
thx man, watched you on stream! noted a lot of stuff for myself) gl!
I enjoyed the game! It has great 3D visuals and very pleasant music. The controls worked well for me, and I didn’t have any problems with them.
I also liked the level design, although the level felt a little too large for the beginning. If you plan to add more levels in the future, I would probably start with a shorter one and introduce this larger level a bit later. 😄
Overall, the game feels polished and looks really nice. It must have taken a lot of work. Great job!
yea, i already took in consideration level size and difficulty curve for the game) thx a lot for feedback! yea, i crunched 10 hours at night to finish it and took me around 2.5 days for hole project(work-life-jam balance...)
The mouse is pretty annoying but I like the game! You can make it easier to look around
hey, recommending to play in fullscreen
I played in full screen but i still think the mouse can be improved
Sure) this issue already fixed but cannot be uploaded due to jam limitation))
A bit finnicky but seeing that most of it was done in 14~ hours only far more than enough! the mouse thing had me tripping alot. overall a fun experience and a cool attempt on the theme!
hey, did you used Fullscreen? and if no what browser?
That was fun! Overall felt pretty good, it would have been nice to have some control for resetting the camera to front, as if I played windowed I could not re-center easily, but of course it's fixed easily in fullscreen. I also would personally prefer less startup inertia and acceleration but I understand that's a design choice. Would also maybe suggest putting some transparency and fewer of the 'Z' particles but it's cute. I like the visuals and building of the level. I had a good time!
thank you for transparency feedback, will experiment with that for sure! <3
Pretty fun gameplay. Surprisingly easy to control the ball. Of the problems I had, if any, is that I got really confused in the beginning. I think the starting area is too big and samey, so you can get lost easily. It took me a while to realise I was supposed to jump over the blue fence.
Also, I'll confess I don't really understand the sleeping part. The hamster is making sleeping particles, but his eyes are open? LOL. And I'm not really sure what those floating Z's all over the stage are supposed to be, either.
By the way, seems like the mouse didn't lock to the screen for some people, but it worked just fine on my browser.
Anyways, good game. Congratulations, from your 100th reviewer.
hey, thank you a lot! yea looks like this is browser issue with mouse, opera and chrome works fine. omg, true its even a bit creept that that hamset is with open eye(setting in game overall sleepy and dreamy so all this Z is for mood in general) thank you my 100th reviewer <3
This was a really fun little 3D rage-platformer. The hamster ball controls felt surprisingly smooth, and the idea of rolling/spinning through a cute obstacle course fit the theme really well. I also liked the design of the ball itself, it looked way more interesting than just a plain sphere, and the music gave the game a nice vibe.
My main feedback is that the mouse really needs to lock to the game window, since the camera can get stuck when the cursor hits the edge of the screen. A little air control would also help, especially around trampolines or tighter jumps where you can get stuck bouncing. Some parts near the end felt a bit slow or punishing after falling, but overall this was really impressive, especially for something made so quickly. Great work!
thank you<3
This game looks cute and easy at first, but man some of those later jumps made me TENSE. Unfortunately I fell off at the floating pillows/clouds and didn't have the heart to make the trek back up, but it was very entertaining to play! The ball controls really well, but I wish it locked my mouse so I could rotate my camera in any direction. I thought the design of the ball was also well-modeled, far more visually interesting than just a sphere. Very well done for doing this all by yourself in basically one day!!
shank you for feedback! thingy with mouse is already fixed on my side)
I was surprised by how well the ball controlled! Really nice controls and I managed to reach the HUGE seed in 6 minutes! I was a little confused by the sleeping thing, because after reading the game description I thought something terrible would randomly happen and the hamster would wake up the hamster and teleport away haha, but that luckily never happened. Maybe a future intro/cutscene will clarify the story :O But yeah, overall great game and I had a good time!
hey, great idea about cutscene! thanks for feedback <3
