Fellow puzzle platformer maker, 10/10 game! Loved it! Bro made flappy bird as the last level, lol. Enjoyed it sooo much. Great player movement, easy to understand mechanics, great art, music, everything.
Cool idea! Always tough job to make a Puzzle platformer within a Gam Jam time limit but I think you succeeded with making the game this fun!
I really like that we have to collect the babies and bring them back to the nest! I find this game really fun to play, I also really like the atmosphere and the colors!
This is very cute. I love that there is an extra sprite when the duck looses all their feathers :) Really nice puzzle / platformer game!
What an absolutely wonderful game! Re-collecting your flaps is such a simple mechanic yet can be used in really unique and creative ways. Impeccable sound design and the art style is so cute (legit want that end screen as a wallpaper its so adorable). Really really fantastic job on this, had way more levels then expected and the last level especially was a nice test of all the skills built upon so far (esp. the secret route through :P).
This game rules. The emergent depth here is great from just the one core idea, and the physics-based platforming feels really satisfying to get a hang of. Additionally, the sound is addictively adorable. (Quack.) Not to mention that naked sprite... really "quacks" me up. (EDIT: THERE WAS A RESET BUTTON.)
Makes sense! Additionally, I posted this comment when I was stuck on level 4-- after playing through to the flappy bird level (between the spikes), let me just say, hugely impressed on the level design on this game. I was smiling the whole way through. The way the dropped down lets you "ghost" previous attempts if you fall and don't die on the "go up/go left" level especially struck me with how well designed this is. How those ducklings got in the air, though, is anyone's guess.
Wholesome, the birds must be protected. I especially loved how they’ll follow you around and how you look if you lose all your down!
This is awesome! I love the color palette, and the idea, and the audio... great work! And very wholesome that you did this with your kid. Tell them they're a great designer :)
This was a really great implementation, and that flappy bird level is genius xD
Creative concept! Like your take on countdown. I love that your little ducklings give u the inspiration :)
This reminded me of the Celeste levels with the double jump pickups, well done!
Also the ducklings are super cute c:
wow! I'd say this is the cutest platformer in this jam. I absolutely love the visual style - it’s so calming and pleasant that I’d love to play an expanded version of the game. The sprites are adorable, just incredible! On top of that, the game is wonderfully polished, brings out so many positive emotions, and is simply a joy to play. It feels like a complete, finished product. Fantastic job! big thanks to the developer!
This is uncannily similar to my own entry. Puzzle-platformer, multiple aerial double jumps, about a duck collecting ducklings, a down feather meter that goes down when you do a particular action... with 10000 entries, no matter how unique the take on the prompt, someone else probably had the same idea.
And yours has better art and more content!
This was really fun!! I liked the levels and it felt great to play.
This was super cute! Your kid came up with a really good interpretation for the theme, way better than some that I've seen! Very clever level design with some of the needing to be able to aim for the next level of feathers, so good! Give the little ducklings a pat for me!
I love this! As you can tell by my name, I love ducks. I love the pun on the theme with down feathers! The whole game is fun and replayable, the art is charming and everything is visually clear. It's just simple in the best of ways. It has challenge to it, gameplay wise, and going through the levels without a tutorial and just being able to figure out what to do WITHOUT a tutorial is really great design!
Awesome game!
