Love it!

deadlyapps 2013-04-30 04:35

Cant get it to run

epaik 2013-04-30 04:39

@Deadlyapps

What browser are you using?

I really like the art and sound, play wells. The boss has too much health, takes too long.

bneutral 2013-04-30 04:41

Bretty good.

bobokat 2013-04-30 04:41

Beautifully done. Love the animation and the characters. The music is good too.

almax27 2013-04-30 04:42

Seems to freeze on the title screen, I'm using Chrome on Win 7

bleating 2013-04-30 04:42

Love the art!

liannethy 2013-04-30 04:42

This is a beautiful game, great job to you both! Reminds me a little of New Zealand Story :)

almax27 2013-04-30 04:43

ah, 'z/x' starts it! apologies!

epaik 2013-04-30 04:43

@Almax27
Sorry, we should've mentioned.

Press Z or X to start at the title screen!

maxszlagor 2013-04-30 04:47

Cool game! Love the look and sound. The boss is a bit beefy. Do I detect a Meat Boy music homage?

epaik 2013-04-30 04:52

@MaxSzlagor

No intentional tribute to Meat Boy, but I may have been subconsciously influenced :).

ryusui 2013-04-30 05:20

Beautiful. I didn't get past the second boss, but I loved it - a splendid little puzzle-platformer. I just wish the little guy was better-equipped for fighting big monsters! XD

ecbambrick 2013-04-30 05:25

Bosses were really well done. I especially like how you did the visual queues for the fist one.

stromchin 2013-04-30 05:31

Love the art.

orangepascal 2013-04-30 06:58

I like the hand-drawn art-style :D

qdowngames 2013-04-30 07:01

Yes! I absolutely loving the art style! enuff said.

hyakutaro 2013-04-30 16:20

Was really hard to beat.

Love the art style.

rwos 2013-04-30 21:59

Awesome art, but great gameplay too - very much reminded me of the "Kirby's Dreamland" titles. The controls are a bit awkward on a qwertz keyboard, but that's what I get for having a qwertz keyboard. :-) Great Job!

shugor 2013-05-01 00:35

This game is just all-around cute! Although, when I was on the second level after the minotaur-like boss, I was just swimming around trying to get up when suddenly I flew off to the left of the screen and drowned. Later on when I forgot that I wasn't playing a game where P =/= pause, I pressed it and suddenly, octopus boss! Other than that, I didn't find any glitches or anything but it was a bit disorienting.

epaik 2013-05-01 03:25

@Shugor
You accidentally discovered a debug button that I forgot to remove from the game! P was used to skip levels during development.

I've removed it so that no one in the future accidentally skips levels when trying to pause. Sorry!

tifu 2013-05-02 11:48

Love the cute style, especially when you or bosses take damage. It's a little frustrating, the bosses are really fun, I'd like to keep challenging the octopus guy and figure out a strategy, but I feel like the crab levels are just getting in the way of that fun =/

sneakysalmon 2013-05-04 01:13

Really fun, cool aesthetic and gameplay.

cwilloughby 2013-05-04 08:08

Super cool. Got pulled in by the 10s video. Great visuals. Cool gameplay. Found myself confused by the repeating patterns for the different effects.

pythong 2013-05-04 13:46

love the art and the game play, but hate that ppl don't know that on german keyboards the Y button and the Z button are reversed - so that we have huge problems playing games which rely on the Z button :'(

minionstudios 2013-05-04 19:15

Awesomme game, like Kirby + Mega Man's hand-drawn child!

kyyninen 2013-05-05 19:56

Lovely style and music, but too hardcore for me! It also ran kinda slow on my computer, which might have been the problem.

ssjmetroid 2013-05-07 17:55

Nice job guys, fantastic use of the Heartline code also. The art style really fits.

oye-beto 2013-05-08 04:41

Wow...
this game is going to the top of the rankings.

- Lovely art. I really like the style and animations.
- Short levels with 3 bosses = super fun. The levels were just a lobby before the bosses. I liked that.
- Good music
- Gampeplay isn't very innovative but the graphics make it feel fresh.

gatechgrad 2013-05-08 05:50

I also thought of it being a cross between Kirby and Mega Man. I couldn't get past the red/blue bird twins boss, since it gave me little time to react, but that's how the bosses in Mega Man were. Good job!

orni 2013-05-08 06:33

wow, I love the controls and the visual style - really reminded me of Yoshi's Island on the SNES I've played as a child.

very well done :D

palsina 2013-05-08 09:14

Lovely, I specially like the animations and the jump physics.

sonnybone 2013-05-08 15:03

AHHHH!!!! I love this game! The style, the characters, the gameplay... UGH! This needs to be a full game. Seriously. I LOVE IT!

soul 2013-05-08 16:55

I loved this game so much and I loved the boss fights. the art style is very very good and the music too. great job and I hope to see it as a complete game one day

hayawi 2013-05-08 22:06

Wow, I just loved that silly art style you had going on, with the British music, it was really nice. Good job :D

hayawi 2013-05-08 22:09

I just realized, that music was Mozart's 9th Symphony which I was playing in the background, lol disregard the music comment :P

hayawi 2013-05-08 22:15

*Beethoven...

turbodindon 2013-05-10 17:26

The art is just perfect. Pixel-Kirby-like style.
I have a few difficulties to control the character.
The second boss is not easy.

michail 2013-05-11 16:34

I really like the style of this game, and I think it has great potential, but there are some very annoying things about it - especially the collision detection was too rough sometimes. I hate to be hit by the monster which is apparently a few pixels from me. Also didn't like that 'x' was assigned to shooting - in almost every platform game I've played the 'x' key was used for jumping.

knighty 2013-05-12 10:42

Wow, amazing game! Graphics/music/bosses are all very good. Jumping out of water was a bit difficult, especially during the octopus boss. I wish there was some feedback when I hurt the small enemies or the bird boss, like there was on the first two bosses.

taro 2013-05-14 04:13

Absolutely adorable and disturbing at the same time! Very much enjoyed this platformer.

kidevil 2013-05-16 00:46

Great art style and loved the way the spitting propels you. Wished I would have read that part before getting stuck on the water level ;)

GreyShock 2013-05-19 09:37

I love the art and the animations! sweet mechanics and challenging yet fun boss fights!

dick_claus 2013-05-19 10:37

I too got stuck on the title screen :( Using Chrome on a Mac

brassawiking 2013-05-19 17:35

Bosses were kind hard, so a reset at the boss instead of a few levels back would have been nice. Music was a bit repetative. Otherwise, the game design was really nice!
