It was very simple, not much going on, just a little cool platforming game, well done but nothing too special. The art style itself was very cool, and worked in tandem with the little story you had going on, this child-like hand drawing style looks very cool and was done really really well, it was very fun to play through! Great entry, well done!

A really pleasant experience (by the end), something that few jam games can claim. I think some formatting strangeness was happening for me (I have a weird aspect ratio screen) but the art style was amazing and I liked the "floaty" gameplay as it felt cohesive with what was happening somehow.

End of the RopeOverall a beautiful art style and story about friends reconnecting. The mechanics all felt good and I liked how the game ending was tied to the amount of damage you took, a great way of inspiring re -playability with drastically increasing scope!
If you wanted to improve, I suggest making the in game text also hand written. In addition I recommend making the colors slightly softer in the background to give the game more depth.
Overall, fun game! Check out mine if you get the chance!

Joining Forces [GMTK 2021]I really like the story and the artstyle chosen! I think it still needs a bit of polishing - the background looked quite blurry on my computer, and some text used a very default-looking font which clashed a bit with the drawed style of the game. Unlike some other comments, I actually found the floaty-like jumps very fun! :)

Captain TegaHi AlxitoProggramer!
The opening story to this game is very sad! It feels like it was written by a heartbroken child, which I believe is exactly what you were going for. The story of finding your friend who you are joined together with through a deep relationship is really heartwarming. The platforming was pretty well done too!
One suggestion I have is to make the floating bubbles of the birds (or whatever those tree-dwelling monsters are) a little more obvious. I think I lost a lot of health without knowing why until I learned they were actually shooting at me.
The artwork is superb! The music is relaxing as well. And I like the concept of different endings, although I was only able to get Bad and Neutral.
Great game! Good luck with the rest of the jam!
Best,

Glass PainHey!, i did played your game, and i like it! , the art style is really charming and looks awesome, the platforming feels a little slow but it's really fun, i found a certain jump frustrating tho, near the end where you can hit your head in a floating platform above very easy making it hard and punishing since it sends you almost all the way to the begining, but over all i enjoyed your game.
