Very cute and polished game! The art is very cute and the game mechanic is easy to understand. The time is also pretty balanced. Overall we had much fun (/≧▽≦)/
Hey! Awesome stuff Foldin. Thank you for playing and glad you enjoyed it <3
Having to hold jump took some getting used to. The first time I tried to hold jump to get on top of the cages I thought the game was pretty unforgiving, but it was because I wasn't using the corpses. So that in-level hint came in clutch! Completed the game. Well done on the jam!
Thanks for playing Ritchi. Glad you were able to get the hang of it and enjoy it <3
Really cool art, and such a good idea! It's really fun! :D
Glad you liked it Hedgehog! Thanks for playing
such cute and nice graphics! can't believe it's even possible to make art like this, it's awesome! super pretty and i love that someone made a platformer that's SO beautiful and actually fun to play too. great job!
Thank you so much for the kindest words <3
wow the art for this was so incredible, i love the 2.5d style
Thanks for playing, glad you liked it <3
Loved the character design. And the final screen was so cute. The Jump King-style control scheme adds a nice bit of pressure for the levels' small timers.
Haha yes! That's exactly what we went for 😁. Thank you for playing 🙏🙏
That was well excecuted! I've seen few of these count down death platformers so far but I think you guys nailed it. And the art and environments were really pretty. Good job!
Awesome of you to say that. Thanks a ton ✨
I love art ! games are really fun !
You said it Po0k! Thanks for playing ❤️
Great game amazing art
Thanks Limecider, glad you liked it! ❤️
i really like the artstyle of this it's really cute, the model and animations of the cat, the ui, the ending it's great
altho im not sure if the timer above the flaming skulls is needed, it might be just how fast i completed the levels but i feel like the nine lives are good enough as a timer
about the mechanics
im not sure about the hold to jump thing, i think going for a more traditional "release to stop going up" would be better, that or just to let the cat move a bit before jumping because the stopping of momentum made the platforming abit awkward
besides that i feel like the cat corpses need a simple box hitbox so they would be a bit more reliable to climb
otherwise the levels and mechanic were very solid well done!
Thank you for playing and for the in depth feedback! It's very helpful ✨🙏
great game.Thanks for thinking to add the button assignments for the controllers. Love the way you teach us progressivly how to game.
Thanks for playing 🙏🙏
I like how discarded souls retain the properties of the powerup you died with! I think that could add a lot of extra dimensions to puzzles if you ever added more in the future.
Absolutely! Cool that you caught that. We had some wild ideas for corpse upgrades haha
Hey, I really like your submission! The artwork is really great. Fun idea too, I like the ability to spend lives to reach other places in the levels. My main recommendation is to allow players to adjust the volume of the music, I thought it was a little loud. Great work!
Thank you! You can adjust the music volume in the settings menu. It doesn't mention that anywhere though so thanks for highlighting how it's easy to oversee atm.
Cute and simple. I love the theme and the art was great!
Thank you! Your game looks so adorable as well :3
Simply gorgeous!
Thank you <3
This is such a cute game! I love the simplistic art style
Thanks for playing <33
It looks amazing, though the sound effects seem a bit unfitting. An easy, but fun game.
Thanks, And you're 100% right we didn't manage to improve the audio in time :}
The art is absolutely amazing.
Thank you! Artists did amazing indeed.
Really cool art. Animations and backgrounds reminded me Rayman a lot.
The movement took some time to adjust (cat stopping each time it needs to jump) but overall solid platforming.
The difficulty was well balanced for a jam game in my opinion. Not too easy, but not really that hard.
Nice ending, too :)
Thank you! What an awesome thing to be compared to :DD.
Yeah striking those balances in such a short time be difficult.
Thanks for playing for the kind words!
WOWWW! The art is super super polished, awesome concept, overall great entry!
Thanks a bunch Yoav! PvP Veggie Brawl when? :DD
ASAP hahaha
