Cool presentation! Great work :)

Fun time killer if you need something to do for a few moments. The handheld game look is really awesome, and a beautiful touch. Great job!

I love retro-consoles! The game reminds me a lot of feelings... good job!

What a nice little pig game. Love the 3D handheld gamemachine and the low quality graphics. Gameplay is simple, but effective enough!

Spikes are less spiky than expected.

I really like the game controller and how it even shakes as you press buttons. The hitboxes on the spikes were kind of annoying.

Thanks for the comments and feedback. In hindsight, the collision on the spikes should be tighter, probably pixel perfect.

i found the jumping quite difficult, looks like a legit gameboy game on the inside, and much work to get 3d effects around it! I couldnt play it too long unless i figured out the jump better, nice work.

Really well presented and fun to play! Nice literal take on one of the themes.
Goooooooood job!

The graphics disappear, can not play.

great presentation. slightly unintuitive control and I simply couldn't clear the last spike which got frustrating after many attempts, but at least it was challenging?! good effort

"L : Tap to jump and remain airborne. " - No matter how quickly I tapped it I always fell right back to the ground. Is there a trick to it?

daveh 2015-12-18 00:46

@JimmothySanchez If you stop tapping, gravity pulls you right back down. You can also only tap for so long, 1.2 seconds to be exact, before you are exhausted and must land before you can tap again. This isn't really communicated (probably should have had an animation showing the pig getting tired to communicate what's happening, but I didn't have the time.)

This was pretty cool to play :D Love the aesthetics! Congrats

This is HAAAAAAARDD!!! But pretty nice. (still couldn't get past 6 biscuits though D: )

Enjoyed the game. It might sound weird but maybe rethink the pink yellow and brown background image. It kind of fights for attention, and doesn't quite feel like it fits.

decayconstant 2015-12-19 02:47

Haha! I love the game within a game feel to it. :D
I couldn't get past 7 snacks though. :\
It would be fun if little games like this were incorporated into larger games.

evanegibbs 2015-12-19 03:58

That was tough! It was hard to hit the jump button over and over again. I really liked the portable gaming system model, that added a lot. Nice job. :)

phocker 2015-12-20 07:31

controls need work but i loved the old hand held feel you game it - nice work

jupiter_hadley 2016-01-11 00:13

Neat little game! Its pretty hard to jump though. I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/EnuG74cyOfk
