Really like the controls for this game, everything felt very smooth. Felt the game was a bit difficulty, but still really fun!

Very fun game and incredible art ! Was stuck for a while on the last level, but managed to get through. The game probably lacks a background music, but apart from that, everything else is great!

LOVE a Pico8 game. Terrific art. Good mechanics. You killed it. I tried my hand at Zep’s new tool Picotron. You’d be terrific at it.

This was fun! The last level was tough, which I enjoyed. Forcing the player to pound the nails in different directions is smart, the movement and the controls felt good

Very cute pixel art and really good idea/concept. The core gameplay is fun enough that pretty simple levels are already fun enough, I like how you implemented the idea of a countdown of jumps.Gameplay was smooth too. Cant ask much more from a jam game, well done !!

Excellently done, very cool movement I have to say, but I especially like all the great pixel art you made in the different colors, amazing! (also PICO-8 rocks)

Fantastic little game and wonderful homage to the old Gameboy era games! The platforming and control felt smooth and the you made the most out of the limited pico-8 palette. Crazy good.

everything about this is super cool to me,i love how much you were able to get out of relatively few mechanics and the way the palette keeps changing makes this very aesthetically pleasing, well done !
