Being able to play with 10 lives was a nice option, almost like an easy mode.
I really liked the graphics. They look pretty different from most entries, almost like the characters were drawn with crayons somehow. It also felt like something that could have been on a real Game Boy.
The music got a bit repetitive and could use a few more bars, and one-hit deaths felt a little rough. A simple health system might help there.
Really liked the art style overall!
Thanks for playing, I appreciate the feedback!
All graphic assets were created during the jam, but fit stylistically with my other game projects :)
Surely matches the GameBoy style. It's very hard even at the first levels, mostly because the movement isn't very accurate especially when you release the movement button, but maybe it's a feature that you actually wanted. Overall the style and graphics are really cool.
*Very* Gameboy-esque graphics, punishing difficulty. Even with 10 lives I couldn't pass the second stage. (Having to do the *whole* stage over with no checkpoints was frustrting) .... I liked the dragon sprite. :D
I love the color palette. The game controls well and has a simple, yet interesting visual style. I liked what I played although I didn't get to finish the last level.
really liked the game!
challenging platformer , fun game (level 3 is so hard)
Thanks for Playing :)
Level 3 has nothing on some of the later levels in my previous project "Matt The Sewer Rat"
Very hard, is good, I could not beat it in my allotted time for this game but it was really fun and no major glitches or bugs or anything! Good work! Very enjoyable.
My only gripe is I didn't like how fast he moved, rather had a bit more control.
Thanks for playing! The movement was slower in some early revisions, I increased the speed as I had some ideas of setting a timer for completion time to encourage speedrunning.
I played it on the gameboy! Lovely platformer, quite challenging but once you get the hang of it it's definitely doable. Well done!
Thanks for checking it out on gameboy hardware!
