It was pretty frustrating to always be hitting my head on the leaves. Music is pretty nice, though.

Basic idea was really solid though the pacing and controls felt off.

I dig the aesthetic you've got here!

btw, do you mind if I ask what browser+OS you used to play my game? I did include sound effects and you said they weren't working for you

Really liked the pixelart and the sound. The controll is a bit frustrating. My head stucks at one of the leaves way to often.

In response to membrane I accidentally has my sound off when I reviewed your game but I realized it and updated my rating :)

Jeez, this game is finicky. Sometimes I jump high, sometimes I don't. Maybe I'm missing something.

mcrewind 2015-12-14 09:15

justonooncx, you have to get momentum and jump off the side of things like the edges of leaves or even the horrible enemys, thats why your jump height fluctuates :)

Good graphics mate, gameplay is kinda good when you get the jumps

theres some flaw like the controls feel very stiff, the character floating, and i constantly bump my head on the leaf
the concept not bad tho

The music was trippy, I don't know why I had the constant Retry sign over my head, and I couldn't grasp the jumping mechanic enought to have fun with this one.

I really enjoyed the music.

Nice sound, jumping seems off though :)

I couldnt get ontop of the leaf! Though the sound is great. I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/BarqoQ2BpLQ
