Very cute fox!!! And very good platformer, even for me that don't like 3D ones. The controls are very tight and precise, and the movement mechanics are well made. Congratulations on your game :)

pretty nice , suprised theres this much content despite the 4 day limit 
overall was fun , web version when :(

Nice platformer.

Submitted

Nice to see some 3D platformers in this jam, and this one is pretty nice as well. Wasn't expecting some of the jumps to be so difficult but it was a pleasant challenge, would have loved to play more levels with the dash mechanic introduced at the end.

Submitted

The model is deceptively cute, because some of the parts of this game really took some precise timing! Wish there was more to do but other than that, it was pretty fun :)

Submitted

Pretty interesting concept, I couldn't get past the jump with the moving platform and the sign that reminds you how to run, but I suck at 3d platformers. The audio got on my nerves after a bit, but it wasn't too bad. Overall, it was a pretty fun game.

Submitted

Really enjoyed your art style! I'm not the best at platformers, but I still had fun trying :)

Submitted

Great game, it was fun, although a bit frustrating in some sections (Especially when platforms got REALLY tiny). Also impressive that this is a custom engine

Submitted

Really satisfying game, the jumps really make you feel like you accomplished something instead of being frustrating, it was a short game, but it left me wanting more, great job dude!

Submitted

Wow, the visuals look really good and I like the level design! There were a few parts where it felt a bit too unforgiving (namely the super tiny ice platforms followed by the super long jump), but overall I really liked the atmosphere, and the sound effects were great too. I do wish there had been a little more music though because the main jingle started to get repetitive after a while.

Submitted

really fun platformer, short and sweet. the idea of using the momentum of moving platforms almost like launch pads is pretty clever, had a lot of fun playing. good job

Submitted

This was such a pleasant bite-sized experience! The fox character was really cute, and the contrast between the warm colors of the pockets of summer air and the icy environments was very appealing. The level design poses a challenge without overstaying its welcome, and collecting the fruits was a fun diversion. I do feel that the difference between the icy floors and the normal floors could have been a little clearer visually, and some of the more precise platforming sections felt a bit at odds with the controls, but all around this was a fun little game! Keep it up!

Submitted

A very nice game! The platforming was great and the momentum mechanic is very interesting, I got a little bit stuck on the one where you were on the moving platform with the huge leap in front of you, but I got the hang of it. It was a bit short and would love to see this expanded on.

I really love it 

And your profile pic is also great

Very nice little game, the platforming was overall clean and well communicated. Loved the  dash fakeout at the end, perhaps unlocking the ability, resetting the player to the start and reducing the amount of checkpoints would have been possible to add additional challenge content (like the ice physics mode) without much development work.

Developer

Thanks! That's not a bad idea actually, too bad I wasn't able to think of that myself before the deadline haha. It is a shame that the dash didn't get to be used more, if only I had had more time... Ice mode was only added because a friend of mine thought it'd be funny, which it was to be fair. I'm glad someone found it. Thanks for playing and your feedback :)

Submitted

Looks very cute but was a bit challenging at times ^^” I really struggled with the jump from the moving platform to the ice platform close to the end but I eventually managed ^^ still very fun and fun movement ^^

Submitted

Very enchanting music :D

Submitted

wooo that was satisfying. The wall jump was a bit tricky - jumping with momentum was really fun. 10/10 - You should try our game Soul Possession, we had some similar designs :D

Okay, this was actually a lot of fun, great little 3d platformer. The controls felt great and I just wish it was longer! Great job!

Developer

Thank you! I also wish it was longer, but sadly I underestimated how much time level creation would take ._.

What a cute and statisfying 3d platformer! I had a lot of fun. The movement is so good. Sadly it's a bit short but otherwise it's great.

Developer

Thanks! :)
