Going down the stairs one or two steps is a great and simple idea and the graphics and audio fit the setting perfectly. However I felt like the game is currently just a bit too easy and the difficulty doesn't really seem to ramp up much as the game progresses. I feel it could be super fun if you have to quickly decide how far to jump but you only get a small window of time to decide

I see we went down the same route with the wordplay! This is a pretty fun, simple game. I really liked the beginning cutscene. Nice job!

Submitted

Lol creative on the wordplay. I think its a fun infinite game and theres room for potential. Like maybe it costs something to go into my bat form or other cool pickups that I might be able to get along the way that improve my jumping or something.

Very nice and fun little game, love the art and the direction you went with it. Congrats!

Submitted

Nice game and idea! Love the little cutscene at the start and the art! Nice job!

Submitted

Loved the bat forms squeal...  made me smirk

Submitted

Great take on the theme, loved the idea! Maybe there should not be a timer for the step actions? That way, it could lead to rushing clicks and more ladings in garlic? It could add some difficulty to the gameplay loop!

sometimes i get soft locked :(

Submitted

The concept is great! I love wordplay when coming up with ideas!

Submitted

The wait timer in-between jumps is kind of annoying, i'd wish i could just jump immediately after the animation!

Simple a sweet game ^^ Good work !

Submitted

Very cool concept. It's quite a simple game, but I thought it was really fun! I loved the pixel art and the audio, so well done!

Submitted

It's a simple, fun, and surprisingly good game.

Submitted

Really fun premise, would love if the jump 2 down will gave 2 points , the wait timer mad it a bit tedious and monotonous

Submitted

Simple game but fun premise.

Submitted

Fun idea and I love how the Count Down theme fits

yup, he went down the stairs.

I'm very bad at this game :D
The garlics keep hitting me even when I try to jump over them

Submitted

Very fun simple game. The audio loop is great. I personally would wish for no wait timer on the moves but Great Game.

Submitted

The gameplay I think is insanely easy as you can just skip the garlic with no limits or hardship, or sometimes is 3 or more garlic so you have to be hit. Creative and I like the intro though :)

Submitted

I liked this game a lot!

Submitted

Very cute animations at the beginning!
Potentially I would've removed the cooldown? That way it would play more smooth and the players would be less likely to misclick and land on garlic?
