How does the game fit the theme?
Trust Fund Baby's game concept and title are an alternate interpretation of the word "trust". In this instance referring to a financial trust and the "trust fund babies" that inherit them.

However, perhaps not every character in the game has the most honest of intentions....

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Tilemap: Pigs and Kings by Pixel Frog, Children Sound Effect: Ronan Momberg, Fonts: Silkscreen and EB Garamond, Palette: Vanilla Milkshake by Space Sandwich, Milk Carton: Rahmat, Cursor: Simple Pixel Cursors by Gabl

the controls were somewhat hard for me but i loved the game its style is really cozy for me

also surprised it has great physics and woah boss fight!!? you tow did amazing also i like the sound design, does that have a specific name or u guys just went with what sounds great

(can u pls try my game too :3)

Developer

Thank you so much!! Glad you enjoyed it. As for the sound design, I just booted up FL Studio and flipped through a bunch of different synth presets until I found something I liked the sound of haha. Tried for something more like a xylophone or marimba for the main game music to fit with the baby theme, and something more dramatic for the boss fight. Will give your game a try right now!

The controls and gameplay were fun once I started to get the hang of it! It's hard to feel sorry for a trust fund baby but that kid got it pretty rough haha

Developer

Yeah that baby is getting no sympathy from me. I suppose now they can say they had to fight for that money though... lol

Thanks for playing and well done on your game.

Interesting take on the prompt. I personally struggled a bit with the controls, but I enjoyed the platforming and the boss fight is a good concept. Good job yall

Developer

Thank you!! The unorthodox controls are meant to be a bit challenging at first but then rewarding once you get the hang of it. Thanks again for playing!

Developer

Thanks for pushing through it and for the feedback!

Great game, I really enjoyed playing it! It took me a while to get the hang of the controls, but after a while, I actually really enjoyed flying. Nice plot twist, very cool boss fight, kind of old-school and very juicy sound design. My best time was 1:20, I don't know if that's good, but I gladly played a few more times after the first playthrough. Great game, good job ♥

Developer(+1)

Oh wow this is one of my favorite comments so far! This is exactly what we were going for - a bit challenging but rewarding. So happy to hear you played it through a few times!! I think 1:20 is the second fastest time I've seen yet so great work. Thanks again for playing!!

Developer(+1)

You definitely beat my time, great job!

Great movement mechanics, I didnt enjoy the game to much but that a personal opinion. Fitting for the theme was ok and visuals are finished so nice.

Developer(+1)

Well I have to respect the honesty! Platformers/rage games aren't for everyone! Thank you for playing.

If I dont like a game based on personal preference, I rate (in this case) the enjoyment section based on comments from others btw. So no points were lost :) Wanted to tell you this aswell :)

Developer(+1)

Ah, well that's very kind and considerate of you! Thanks again!

Fun game! Been a while since I've played one with a Milk Meter :P

Developer

Thank you! Which other games have a state of the art milk-o-meter?

Submitted

The kind you don't admit to playing

Submitted(+1)

I had a fun time playing this! I think the theme could have been incorporated a little better into the actual gameplay, but the mechanics and the art were all really well made.  Good entry!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing!

all 5s! the controls and movement mechanics are too good. Would love to play this on mobile

Developer

Wow! Thank you so much!! I think a mobile friendly build is a great idea. Excited to give your game a try :)
