If I'm being honest, it was a little buggy. And I mean that in the best way (because it was an ant game). In all seriousness music was great. Movement felt good. I really could have used a check point sooner in the game. Really great game. Thanks for sharing.

How does your game fit the theme?
You are an ant going diving deep down in the nest with a leaf
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes

The music for this game was amazing and the graphics were fantastic. The walking on walls was unique and the end was pretty. Overall very well done. :D
Nice arts. Well made mechanic. It was a bit sad to turn back every time I die :/ Different than other games in jam. Good job!
Can you try and rate my game ?
The ant and anthill theme was not something I expected to see from the jam theme and I'm pleasantly surprised to see it here! And a platformer built entirely around a wall climbing mechanic is something that I think definitely has potential.
I feel the moving isn't too smooth. When the ant stands at the edge, the visual will be broken!
Also, (Personally) The move up is really frustrating, I think you can use A or D instead of W and S for climbing. And I dont understand why when I hold W and D then space to jump, the ant just jump very shortly and fall to the spike(?). And adding some save points is also great(or it already has but I havent reached there)!
Aside from that, this game really did well in Ant movement :D, the graphic and sound are completely fit too! But maybe add somethings to do with the leaf, like just holding it and moving to the nest is a big waste to the potential of this game!!!
Yooo thanks for the feedback :)
I also thought about what would be more intuitive for the climbing, if A and D, or W and S, or both (I guess it is a matter of playtesting with a lot of people), I went with the W and S option, so it was easier for me to use A and D for fall out of the walls on purpose without extra coding, a bit of laziness there 😆
About jumping very shortly when holding W and D, I didn't notice you are right, I see now the ant walks slower when holding W and D over holding only D, so when jumping the horizontal length of the jump is less (the jump height seems the same though)
I think it is because I used the new unity input system so (in my unexperienced opinion 😅) it seems to be optimized more for a top-down type of movement like when using a joystick, if you hold D the horizontal velocity is 1, but if you hold W and D the horizontal and vertical velocity are around 0.70~, which I think is the reason the ant walk slower when holding 2 buttons (I think that wouldn't happen in a 2D top-down game or a movement in a 3D space
About the save points you are totally right, I'll be working on implementing some checkpoints 😆
We also wanted to do more with the leaf but our inexperience and the time restriction were bigger issues this time 😅
I'm glad you liked the game and found those details, thank you for playing! :D
The music, and visuals are amazing and the idea of climbing as an ant is too, only problem is the hitboxes sometimes dont work and my jump ends up failing. Still great game
Cool little game Here firstly the platforming was nice good movement climbing was smooth all felt polished. the art was really nice good little artsyle to the game and use of lighting was nice. music was also good and fit nicely didnt blow my eardrums out and finally the ant and his animation were great. well done guys great submission
This was so well done! The art was incredible and there was a huge quantity of different assets. The lighting looked great and the mechanic was implemented really well. The music was awesome! I really liked the instrument choices and cadence, really felt like marching ants. Incredible that you guys did this quality in a week, let alone while being new to unity. Well done!
It's fun to crawl around on the walls, definitely gave me the ant fantasy that I wanted. I couldn't tell where the checkpoints were located and got stuck on a particularly long section. Keep it up!
Cool game I enjoyed being the ant and jumping onto the walls, the music was well written and definately gave off a marching ant sort of vibe, the art was great too! well done team :)
Nice game! I liked that you could climb on the walls, and the art style was really neat. Also, it seemed that you could take multiple paths to the end, which is really cool.
