Nice gameplay mechanic and creative use of the jam's theme! I didn't get the jump at first but once I played a little it felt pretty intuitive. Good game!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback ; yeah The jump can be a little confusing at first , I needed to make it clearer ;

This is a fun idea. I like the cute cat figure! It is a little confusing at the beginning when I first started but then I realized it is auto jump and the number on the left does not really help much. It is easier if I just count the beats my own lol. Just a thought, it could be more intuitive to add a clear indicator on top of the kitten to hint the player when the next jump will be. But overall nice entry and I love your idea!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback  I really appreciate it

I think it makes for a somewhat interesting challenge that I don't retain the velocity when I jump from a moving platform, so I have to pay attention to ensure I don't fall off. I'll agree with some of the other comments that this game concept would probably work well as a sort of rhythm game, though I did get a bit of satisfaction out of keeping track of the timing in my head.

I think add more choices whenever you face and obstacle would be interesting. Currently I'm forced to wait for a jump, but maybe it would be neat to have two paths I could take - one that is a jump and the other that is a lower path that could be slower etc.

Developer

That's a solid idea , thanks for the suggestion

For the first seconds i thoughed it jumps on the drum but then i had to learn the hard way that it is just a fixed timer and the music doesn't trigger it xD

Developer

haha it never crossed to sync the beat to the jump ; good idea

Nice idea, I like the take on the theme. I found myself trying to time my jumps to the music instead of the two second timer, and maybe that could be a fun way to expand 

Developer

Oh yes definitely , a auditif indicator would a lot more engaging that a visual one ,thank for the idea

Idea is very creative, taking this game into something more polished with more countdown abilities is worth it. Nice work!

Developer

The jump countdown is a cool mechanic and I think you did a good job of providing a variety of different platforms (moving, disappearing etc...), it kept the level feeling fresh and engaging. Nice game!

Big fan of this concept! I’d never seen something like this before and it made the level genuinely challenging. Love it. Could use some polish with the level and a few small bugs, but overall, a really cool idea! Nicely done!

Developer
