I made it to the top! Since the game involves a lot of dying and trying again, I wish the death animation and jumping back into the game would happen faster.

Having different escape routes was very cool, and the story was quite funny. Good job on this one!

Against the FlowFantastic job from you both and a great game! The narrative and gameplay was lots of fun. I really like the sprite art on the main character. I've followed you and look forward to your next game(s).

Ocean HeartThis was a fun challenge! Congrats on making your first game. If this is the idea you came up with for your first, I can't wait to see what you continue to make!

Block & AweAwesome work! The character is so cute and I love the "out of time" animation.

Counting Downy WoodpeckersA great first-time game jam entry! I liked how you could use your horizontal momentum to carry yourself over from one platform to another (which is stronger than vertical jump distance which I haven't really seen). The game is logical and I appreciate the beginning cutscene (which is pretty funny) and adds context to the narrative. Best of luck for anything you all do in the future, good job team! :)

Unintentionally Funny OllieVery short, but pretty fun. It’s actually pretty rare to have a game where jump heights are actually realistic-!
The game is super short, on account of the time limit being 10 seconds long, so even with lots of pickups it still is a really short game. Still pretty fun though!
i wish you two the best of luck in anything you make in the future, too!
