This game made me laugh aloud. Wonderful game!
Pretty funny, the art's clean and efficient, the concept much original. Very noice !
(+ you said cacti at the end)
Wow! What a creative entry. I love how it seems to be a simple walking game, then once you end up stepping on a potion you get the hook. Tons of fun, great work.
Awesome entry! Really well made. I was 5 seconds late for school on my first run :) Great idea that smaller steps are faster, but longer steps are more precise, and easy to place. And the growing up, to move faster works great! It's a little disconnected from the theme, but the game is really fun! Good job!
Very funny
Love your entry. It was very fun to play.
Nice game! It was fun to play. I love the stomping effect that happens when you reach a certain size. I like how the mood changes when you are late, and how it feels like I caused the title to be true by being too slow. It makes me wonder if you can actually get there in time...
This is super funny XDDDD Love the sound and screen tilt effect when the boi is super tall
First of all, I love this game!!! This mechanic is so innovative! I’m so impressed!
Concerning the graphics you did a great job, the graphics is so simple but at the same time so beautiful. It fits so well with this kind of gameplay.
Concerning the audio, the music loop is great. But the thing i liked the most were the big stomp sound effects. It was so satisfying.
Overall I like this game so much. I had an amazing time playing it. This kind of game mechanic is so innovative I haven't seen It around in any other games! I can’t believe this haven’t got more votes than this! This deserves better! Thank you so much for this experience and good luck in the future! Have an awesome day, and I hope to see you in the next jam!

@dudum-lare Thank you so much for your kind feedback! :)
However, I'm afraid you may have been between 0 and 0.5 seconds too late for school... The number of seconds is rounded, but it should appear as green text if you've made it in time ;) But I'll let it slide, congrats :P
Great entry, simple yet really fun. Just the way the jam game should be in my opinion! It also has very intuitive controls which is always nice. I've managed to get to school 20 seconds early.
The game idea is super simple, and the game is super fun and easy to play. Well done.
Very nice game! Especially original!
Never thought I'd play a simulator for every weekday morning of mine.
This was an interesting game and it had a concept that I'd never seen before, I liked the idea that consuming multiple potions would make you grow even more and I loved the thud sound as well as screen shake that you got when you were massive. The soundtrack was very nice and the sound effects were funny.
###How to improve:
Obviously, there's some room for improvement with the graphics of the person but aside from that, I'd recommend making the foot move faster as to make the game faster paced and harder to give the "late for school" feel to it.
But overall, it was a great and hilarious game, well done.
The first genuinely funny game I've played so far. Looks inspired by Carefulzilla from LD38. I liked it a lot.
Not much to criticize. The graphics were a bit simplistic for a Jam game, but the character motion was very charming. Controls were nice and intuitive and allowed for fast and slow motion depending on your surroundings. I would have appreciated a slightly stronger camera shift to see upcoming obstacles sooner. That would have allowed to walk with fast strides more without fear that a house might appear out of nowhere.
The music is very nice, but the sound effects could have been chosen a bit more carefully to support the humor better.
All in all a very funny and fun entry.
This is one of the rare games that are both extremely simple and fun. I think the design and gameplay are on point :ok_hand:. The only thing that could be improved is audio and art. I can see this being a blockbuster in the app store if you continue working on it.
So much fun from such a simple concept. Torn about the theme connection (as you mentioned too) as more potions seem to only bring positives but as a game on it's own it's really solid. Good job!
Wooooooooo 2 secs early! Very nice gameplay made out of just 1 button too, it's pretty hard to make an interesting 1 button game without resorting to some uninteresting mechanics. The balance of this game is shockingly on point (unless my 2s finish was a fluke) so well done on your testing part. I really liked how nervous I felt once I was gigantic because it was easy to misstep into houses and I had to take some smart gambles. Very creative game, I loved it.
Simple, well made game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 40 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8s2AmCPVSXQ
I think we have a winner.
lol this is great. I normally add constructive feedback but like, "it gets really fast and hard and difficult to control at some point" is the entire core mechanic, so I have nothing to add. It's funny, and fun. Nice job.
I am laughing. This is a good simulator to skip school and not do homework. We can research papers on our own and gain knowledge online. Such resources [spam] help students and pupils not to look for books or printed literature for writing creative works. We cannot be late for school. We can make a plan for self-education.
Very good material, absolutely agree. And I personally have never been late for the reason that I was in no hurry. And in school, for me all the work was done by the site https://edubirdie.com/dissertation-writing-services on which my grades and indicators in school were maximum. This dissertation writing services is very good and has helped both me and tens of thousands of other students.

This is very relevant to me. Unfortunately, I'm often late for college. And because of the inability to properly plan my time, I accumulate a lot of tasks. It is especially difficult if the tasks are not easy and I do not understand https://www.nursingcapstone.net/ Recently I was preparing a capstone nursing project and this source helped me with this. So qualitatively, I would not be able to prepare on my own.
I read the comments and really wanted to play this game. But initially I was attracted by the title of the topic. I was never late for school and was an exemplary student. At the university, the workload is greater and it is not always possible to be a successful student without outside help.
