Dropping flowery ground across areas you've completed is neat, and the run/slide animations are awesome. Unfortunately this is just too hard for me, after several frustrating deaths I was unable to complete the game.

Nice and lovely idea :)
(You should put some barrier at the end of the platform. I fell off the level for the first time.)

A simple idea and a simple game. But so much fun.

Loved the graphics and the music, the game had a great mood. Made me laugh a couple times in the beginning as well. Lovely game, good job!

Very enjoyable game, simple, yet compelling. The music fits the mood perfectly.

Love the graphics and animations. The only thing i would tweak is the length of the days, they are a little bit to short in my mind.
Good job!

Very cool idea. and the graphics and music are very well done and fit in the mood of the game. The moving animations and the sky and sun are awesome.

Really good take on the theme and enjoyable gameplay as well as music. I think the game might be just slightly too hard with the narrow platforms and the difficult jumping.

Beautiful graphics and good mood! Really good control and animation of the main character.

Very good. One of the best I've played so far. :D

Nice little game. Interesting concept, enjoyed this.

Nice job!

Nice Idea and i like the graphics! I didnt manage to finish it because of the difficulty.

Nice game, simple but effective, good job.

Very good: simple but effective graphics, good music and sounds, interesting concept. I will admit I abandoned at the cliff that needs lots of jumps onto small platforms (because there are lots of other games to rate) but I might come back to finish it :)

Great entry! Love the player design, and wall jumping? Particles? A nice concept (I like how the enemies are pacified and turned into "weapons")? What's not to like?

Oh, how am I supposed to survive night time, though?

renanlindner 2015-04-24 20:35

I love it man!

garygreen 2015-04-24 20:35

I still haven't got to the end, but I really liked this entry. Something different, with nice art style and music.

purenickery 2015-04-24 20:52

thank you all for your comments they mean a lot to me!

@oparisy all the night-time does is transport you back to your home and regrow all the flowers, so there is no way to "survive" it. The goal of the game is to make it to the end in a single day (which is why the teleporters are there to help). Glad you liked the rest of it though!

Beautiful graphics and music, very immersive! Jumping up those small square platforms got quite frustrating. Very well put together though, nice job!

Really cute, awesome game. I included it in part 9 of my Ludum Dare 32 compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/eqkTJc6zIls

Really nice and effective game. Impressive to see this done in 48 hours with LibGDX. Music was very good at setting the mood.

Nice game.

xandy 2015-05-11 22:56

very relaxing game with a nice progression mechanic!
