Goddamnit, you almost owe me a laptop. Because of your voice acting I just spat my coffe, fortunately missing the computer, but it was close :)

This is absolutely great, I love it. Nothing wrong I could point out. Cheers!

i like the music and the sound effects !, the controls are a little bit confusing and hard. i don't know if is intended or a bug but is weird that i can jump in mid air

Great game! I don't know the water toys you used for inspiration, but what I know is that I never saw someone taking the concept and making a game based on it :) The game is really fun, especially with the awesome sounds and music. The colors also support the light, playful mood. On the criticism: On German Keyboards the Y key is somewhere else. Maybe allow for configuration of the keys. I also found a glitch, that if you you leave the main cube and keep jumping in the air, the toy never comes down and there is no way to reset things. All in all, a really fun, playful entry!

Very nice game ! Kinda slow in browser however. Good theme interpretation. The sound design and music are very funny !

GG ^^

Nice mechanics. The voice-sound-acting-effects is great too. I managed to control two of them at the same time.

I kinda though the right/left controls would be on the outside and the jump would be in the middle. Your description is right. These are both infuriating and engrossing! I love the audio, too!

How can you have so little comments with such a great game? The graphics are really neat and the sound effects are hilarious. The concept works well and is really motivating, since it offers the chance of achieving mastery - who triple jumped a toy into the goal area will know what i mean :D

German keyboard: y and z are switched, but that's a minor thing. Excellent entry, take my stars!

This game is so much fun. Hilarious how the controls are working. Very very good entry. Sound, GFX, Gameplay and Humor 10/10!

It may be an odd thing to compliment in a Jam entry, but the typography of this game is remarkably pleasing. Its both relaxing and playful, that way it becomes very representative for the game as a whole.

Level variation could happen earlier though as the first three levels are nearly identical.

Also: The pink toy is very slow. It needs a serious buff to remain relevant in the current meta.

This is so strange. I love the physics-based gameplay and the adorable sound effects. Very clear objective, too. Cute!!

Awesome game, really addictive!! The graphics, music and SFX are great. Congratulations! I must say though, I think it drifted away from the theme, but maybe you had a different interpretation that I missed.

Maddening and infuriating and addictive. Congratulations! Sound, mechanics, and style are superbly matched. You must be a mad genius of some sort.

This is a really neato take on the theme. Love it.

jondalnas 2017-05-19 07:52

I'm not into frustrating games, but the SFX were so freaking funny.

Bouing!!! Haha that sound was funny! Great job. Very nice concept.

The sound effects were hilarious. I remember playing these toys as a kid. Almost forgot about them. Very cool concept and the gameplay was fun. Great job!
