Bomberman but in 2D platforming! Fun twist and good mechanics there. Had fun playing the game!

I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Nice idea, I feel like the level countdown is unnecessary and would like to have a restart button when I know I screwed up tossing the bomb. Great work!

Thanks for playing and I appreciate the feedback!

Really good game and fun mechanics. Some of the later levels are easier than previous levels, and there was even a level that didn't make me use the bomb. I was a little disappointed there was no YOU WIN message at the end, it just looped back around.

Great game and excellent work.

I'm glad you had fun with the game and played it all the way through! I really appreciate the review! Sorry there wasn't a "You win!" message. We ran into some problems near the end while trying to upload the game to itch.io and didn't have time to add everything we wanted before the deadline.

No problem, super understandable. You all did a great job given the amount of time!

The stages are a bit rough, but there are some good mechanics here. I wish there were a guide line showing where the bombs will land. With that, some of the puzzles could ask for more precise throws. I got stuck on stage 12 because I couldn't throw the bomb in the right direction. Aside from that, it was an enjoyable game. Good work!

Thank you! I’m glad you actually played through the entire game!
