This is a cool game. I really like the mechanic with flipping the shell and bouncing on it or dealing damage with it, that's pretty unique. It's a little frustrating trying to get onto ledges, even with holding space; I think the jump height is just barely enough to get to some spots which I understand could be intended but its still a little frustrating.

Hurtle TurtleThe platforming is fun and I like the idea that you can flip onto your head. The extra little bounce when hitting the ground is incredibly satisfying. There were points where the platforming was very frustrating.

Shell ShantiesI would have appreciated separate levels to break down the mechanics and act as checkpoints. Fun game! Feels a bit like a frustrating bennet foddy experience.

SSH: a game about securing shellsPlatforming felt nice, I especially liked the gray enemies that could properly hunt you down through the terrain, but I definitely felt annoyed having to flip myself back up every time I jumped.

Coco's Big Day OutGame is pretty good, nice interesting block mechanic. It mixes platforming and damaging enemies is a fun interesting way. Great job!
