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!
Whoa you are right: Puzzle platformer with ducks. Rescuing ducklings. Flight based on a down counter!
The core idea is hilariously similar. I swear I wasn't spying on you :)
Guess great minds do think alike.
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!
Will do!
Very solid little platformer! I really like how you interpreted the theme.
Great game Well done i enjoy it
Please rate my game Flip it
Would be happy to.
last couple of levels were actually pretty intense lol
Yup - we wanted to ramp up the challenge without making it impossible. Hope we got it about right.
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!
Simple but really well executed! The difficulty ramped up very nicely and I never felt bored. Also lovely to read that you two can share this hobby in this way
Quack! I loved this so much. Excellent artwork and music very engaging and fun and collecting the feathers is really nice. Very creative mechanic and the puzzles built around it are chefs kiss. Enjoyed the heck out of this one thanks for making it! Great work!!
Ooooo I love your take on count down! Leaving a feather behind and then picking it back up for more flaps fits so well! So simple, yet so much gameplay complexity. I really enjoyed it.
Quack quack. Quack! Quack quack quack.
My favorite part (besides the quacks) was the plucked chicken sprite when you ran out of down. :D
5 stars across the board, amazing game from the art to the sound to the gameplay. Really well done!
Just simple fun, one of my favorites this game jam.
Love the ducks, if i could critic i would, but its perfection. Just give me more levels.
Thanks!
We actually mapped out several more levels including enemies that drop unique feathers. Some of it was even programmed, but for the time crunch we decided to cut back to the essentials. If there's interest we'd love teo expand it after the Jam ends. Cheers!
its so fun to play i love it
Ah I just absolutely adored this game! No only is the aesthetic very good, but the simple mechanic that you have going on was explored in multiple interesting ways. That was cool and well executed all in all!
