As much as I try, I can't make the big jump 😩

I love the idea though. Pogo platformer is a hidden gem that needs to explored. Congrats for making the game in such short notice. It's really impressive considering you did it last minute!

I'm here to support a fellow penguin! It's a good thing you choose a penguin -- any other animal would have found space too cold! I struggled with depth perception but still did okay!

the game is good but i find that the audio is little hurting my ears but beyond that the game is good

i loved finding shortcuts on my own, i could see myself playing this game in my free time!

Banger entry for this jam!!!

This game is so fun ans satisying for a game made in only 12 hours!! The movements and double jump are very fun and the level design is great. The only problem is that the perspective is hard to see but that didnt really lowered my enjoyment of the game. ^^

Congratulations ! :3

Movement mechanic was pretty satisfying and fun, though I might have saved the double jump for a cool mid-game upgrade once the player has got used to how the basic movement works.

Simple and fun, though the depth perception on some levels was tripping me up. Good!

12 hours is absolutely insane for this game, simple premise but fun execution, great job!!

Fun, if hard! Not gonna lie, the way the penguin stared at me everytime it was yeeted off into the dark abyss will haunt me.

Fun game! It's simple but the controls take a bit to master. Overall good job

I really appreciated the poesy of this lonely penguin pogoing away from it's problem. I would have liked a bit of a gravity more heavy but props to you to have done it in 12 hours :O

Once I realized there was a double jump, that was it.  The mechanics were really smooth and rewarding (and I dont know if you intended it, but I really liked finding was to double jump and skip a few parts of the level to get a better time). The only bug I encountered was that sometimes the shadow underneath the player would disappear, but considering you mad this game in 12 HOURS!! And only had one bug, that is really impressive. Great Job

I know you made the game in a rush but honestly once I got the hang of the controls the game was pretty satisfying to play

The quiet sadness of You're a penguin with a pogostick.

Jokes asside, I don't feel like criticising  since the game was made in a rush.

My time was 6:19:05 :D
