Pretty hard to play, since the platforming is wonky.

The game feels really unstable and not really finished :I

This game feels unfinished and was very frustrating to play. Did not know what I was doing most of the time.

Hahhaha how the hell how I can eat the first butterfly?
Frustrating but funny!

I think the base idea is quite good, however, I guess you lacked time to polish the gameplay. The controls are quite difficult to use, and the start of the game is a bit too hard (at least to me). I read the instructions, but I couldn't break ice blocks (maybe I wasn't big enough?).

Not a bad game. It seems to me that it is a pretty starter to do something interesting. However the controls are a little bit weird. Need to be fixed. Well done ++

weird physics when it comes to collisions and bouncing

Your collision detect is like mine :) Nice game! But I don't know how do I win. :)

I get what you were trying to do with the platforming, but it's really, really hard to do anything when you've got momentum-based controls and collision that brings you to a complete stop upon grazing a wall. I also didn't like how, when trying to trampoline up to the top of the right of the start, tapping the corner of the red block killed my momentum.

There's not a whole lot to this game. I assumed I was supposed to eat the flies until I was strong enough to kill the rats? That's a good progression, but I wasn't able to progress at all!

The art could really use some improvement, took me a long time to figure out the red tiles are springy. Frog and rat look decent and consistent, but the fly looks more like a butterfly!

Good interpretation of the theme, I just would have liked to be able to progress at all!

Actually, the black walls are the only ones that stop you when you graze them, but they are climbable.

The controls felt broken, and the gameplay was lacking. i couldn't get past the walljumping segment, or maybe you had to use the red blocks as a trampoline? i couldn't get past that.
