I tried like 5-10 times but I couldn't kill the fire man. But beside that the only issue I got is when I jumped, the first jump I collide with air. Anyway I liked this game

very difficult and fun

I like it but yeah as other people said. the gameplay itself is the bottle neck. jumping doesnt always work let alone double jumping. the goal is as I can guess is collecting all the trophies which is cool but no reason to make death repeat trophies if each trophie is just a separate challenge from the rest. otherwise I liked the art style and I liked the music and actually the swimming felt pretty satisfying. good entry just movement could be polished more

This game just annoyed me. When you need the penguin to jump, it doesn’t, and you just keep trying, and by the time you figure it out, you’ve already been killed. The game has no pauses or other refinements, nor is the goal announced, but overall it’s clear. I liked the art, and the animations are cool. But the gameplay, sorry, I didn’t like it. Maybe the idea is cool, and it’s an interesting interpretation of the theme, but in my opinion, you didn’t quite manage to bring that idea to life. So, I’m looking forward to your review of my game!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback, maybe you had enough time to make proper main menu & pause options but this is life with game jams.

So yes, it's a first prototype it's not supposed to be perfect, same with other 90% games in this jam, we play keeping in mind they were created in such short time.

Note: focusing on positive points rather than bugs (that are very normal) would help people do the same with your game... however thanks again, rated.

Very interesting and fun, and pleasant to look at. It has a lot of personality. I really enjoyed the game.

It could benefit from an input buffer, but aside from that, it's incredibly well made. Great work — it has a lot of potential!

Developer

Many thanks & glad you liked it. played your game as well, nice job!

At first, I couldn’t figure out how to pick up the dynamite from the ground, but I figured it out later. It’s turned out to be a great game, perfectly suited for mobile platforms. Well done. I think you should give it a try it has a lot of potential. I'd really appreciate it if you could check out my game and rate it :) (Rated)

This game is fun to play! There is one minor issue with the UI design of collecting trophies. I thought I needed to hold the down arrow key to collect the trophies instead of holding the S key. But still, this is a great game!

Developer

TYSM! forgot to add 🔽 keybind oups, thanks for your feedback!

Really interesting game, but I did not really understand how I was supposed to get past the flame guy, I would lure him to the flag and then he just attacked me anyways when I tried to get the trophy. I also like how I can just swim to the end and then play the game from the other side

Developer

Luring him & going from the other side would do the trick😉 thanks for your feedback!

The puzzle with the soldiers was great, but I managed to beat it after all))

Great artwork! The floating ice is a nice way to incorporate UNSTABLENESS into you game! If anything for feedback make the trophy pick up time faster as you are vulnerable to enemies. Great game none the less and i loved the penguins movement both swimming walking and attacking. Brilliant job!

Rate my game?

Developer

Tysm! glad you liked it, trophy long pick up is on purpose, so player should have a strategy (example: lure flames guy by sabotaging flag then go from the other side, there should be enough time to both break crate & pick up trophy)
Many thanks again!🔥

Sure I will.

What a fun game! For some reason, collecting the trophies wasn't working for me, but I still loved playing it.  Thank you so much for making your game and sharing. :D

Developer

Many thanks for playing!

Maybe a bug or you didn't hold (S) button enough?

Tried your game as well, nice job!
