This is a fantastic little puzzle game. And, without a doubt, the best use of the theme I've seen so far. I really enjoyed it. Some of the shots are a little hard to make. Didnt feel like there was any consistent way to shoot the coin exactly where I wanted it to be while jumping. Something to note. Both the sound and the transition play twice on death. You introduce alot of neat tricks, I would like to see them be used together in more elaborate setups. Also, I wanted to eat all the coins at the end and bust. Too Short. I want to play more :)

So good!! Great, super charming game. Loved the character design and the animations were really polished and beautiful. Excellent music and really smart puzzle design. Fantastic job!

Brilliant! Great use of theme and execution in incorporating in into gameplay. Love the art style and the music is spot on. Fantastic work.

@youpeoples Thank you for your comment and the feedback! We'll look into adjusting the coin shooting physics so it can land more predictably. We had so many ideas for more sophisticated levels but ran out of time (thanks Endgame and Game of Thrones!). But we're thinking about adding more levels soon in a post-jam version!

@ryan-brenner @amerigo-gazaway Thanks for the kind comments! We had a lot of fun making this game and might keep polishing it further :)

Really nice music and art!

fizzpowmike1 2019-04-30 17:02

This is honestly an amazing use of the theme. Also, everything felt so polished, the character was adorable, the animations were crisp and clean, and everytime I failed I felt like it was my fault not some bug getting in my way. I also really liked how well thought-out the puzzles were, I played to the end and was sad it was over. I would love to see you develop this more, great job!

supernapie 2019-05-01 18:56

The gameplay has a really good rhythm to it. The puzzles with dropping and picking up coins are great and the game explains itself. Keep it up!

youbestrong 2019-05-02 18:18

Omg I think this is one of my favorite entry so far! It's super fun and I love the level designs using the mechanic! The one where you push the coin even further using more coins surprised me and I felt like there was so much potential for additional levels.

Amazing entry!

@alchemic @fizzpowmike1 @supernapie @youbestrong Thank you for the comments! We hope to make a post-jam version with more levels.

I've participated in Ludum Dare 4 times and I make an effort to play/rate a lot each time.

This is definitely the best LD submission I've played so far.

2019-05-03 06:47

Loved it, really well thought!

ghust1995 2019-05-03 06:47

What an amazing concept, I would definitely buy this as a mobile puzzle game, just make the platforming controllers tighter and explore the HUGE ammount of possibilities this mechanic creates, congrats!

gimblll 2019-05-03 06:53

This is a really solid entry with a much more unique idea than most of the entries here. Beautiful pixel graphics too. The only critique I have is that the controls are a bit fiddly and I had a hard time executing the moves I wanted to do. Great work!

msiddeek 2019-05-03 12:08

Very solid mechanic. Theme and art supported the mechanic perfectly. I especially like not using HUD to display how many coins you have, but have that information on the player character itself. Levels were of suitable difficulty. Good job!

hugimugi7 2019-05-03 18:26

Gotta say this is clearly the best designed game I have seen in this jam so far! :hushed:

sylvie 2019-05-04 05:16

Really nice game! Cute graphics, pleasant audio, and fun puzzles.

greg-lord 2019-05-04 07:39

This is amazing. I also worked on a game about a robot preserving resources, but this one went a totally different way and I really enjoyed it. The coin mechanics were totally clever, and used the platformer style really well. The visuals were charming, the audio was lively and supported the mood well, and the levels were all just the right mix of clever and increasingly tricky. Really loved this -- great work!

bytinggames 2019-05-04 19:33

Really good level design! You created many puzzles through a few mechanics without getting the player bored. Cute graphics and fitting sound. I also like the game idea, and how it is fitting the theme. Really solid and well made entry.

russ-moonbase 2019-05-04 19:54

This game is a really great idea with clever execution. The art, gameplay, animation, and soundtrack are all first-rate. I think this is one of the best games I played so far in this Ludum Dare. This team should pat itself on the back for a job well done!

My only critique is that the camera was kinda jerky for me and made me feel a little dizzy. That is something that might just be me but I thought I should mention it.

Overall, this is an awesome game!

garys 2019-05-04 20:05

Perfect. I think this has to be the best I've played so far. The graphics are beautiful and I love the attention to detail. The mechanic is brilliant - I had a similar idea originally and I'm really glad I didn't go ahead with it as your game would have outshined it easily! Level design was great too. First 5 star rating I've given. Really think you should flesh this out into a bigger game. I'd buy it.

raphael-maia 2019-05-04 20:30

Thats the most innovative mechanic i've seen so far

krammetje 2019-05-04 20:51

This is just amazing. Love it!

jaoel 2019-05-04 22:20

Beautiful game, I love the implementation of the theme! The levels are well designed. The platforming is snappy and feels good.

Definitively one of my favorite games in this jam so far!

bentebent 2019-05-05 18:13

This is by far my favourite game so far this gamejam. The controls are great, the gameplay is innovative, the graphics are very nice and the music is fantastic. Really well done!

ddrkirbyisq 2019-05-12 07:33

Yay nice! It's short and sweet. Some of the level designs could probably be slightly more "elegant" but they worked well enough. Re: camera movement, I feel like many of your level designs fit or could fit well within one screen and I think that tends to work better (?) for these puzzle-y type games; some simple camera bounding work might help the feeling of "wasted" screen space, e.g. showing a lot of space below the floor for the first couple levels. Of course, you could also increase the resolution a tad, but perhaps 640x480 was an aesthetic choice as well :)

Great job!

jjjjason 2019-05-13 04:52

Aww this is a cute little bit. From the start my first instinct was to launch my robo-corpse across gaps, and when you actually introduced that as a core mechanic I was very happy ^_^

Minor nitpicks would be that the camera feels rather floaty, and the death wipe animation is a bit much, but those are incredibly minor--lots of polish is obvious here, and everything both aesthetically and mechanics wise works incredibly well, and the puzzle variety is impressive (always love it when people find many ways to use a limited set of mechanics rather than just introducing a ton of mechanics). Great stuff!

spirits 2019-05-13 15:13

One of my favorite Jams so far!, Very well done! Great Music, beautiful pixel art and awesome puzzle game design. Congrats on your jam! :thumbsup:

Congrats the game is looks great!

jordantanner 2019-05-22 08:07

Grats, guys. Nice simple execution, as LD entries should be. Very Celeste. Nice work!

mika-la-grand 2019-05-22 13:29

Nice game with great art and music. Though the level in which you have to jump in between the spikes and shoot backwards was a bit of a difficulty spike compared to the other levels.

luis-j-benitez 2019-05-22 14:21

Great Game. Played it until the End! Congrats on the Win!

papaver 2019-05-22 21:22

And to be honest, I am not at all a fan of ordinary games. I like to play something gambling more. Recently, I got carried away with sports betting. Basically, I bet on football, since I have been following this sport since childhood, and I have an understanding of what to bet on. Bookmaker, I chose here https://fanler.com/ . There you can read detailed reviews on various bookmakers.

I always liked to spend time playing games, as it brought me only positive emotions and a decent income. I would like to recommend the online roulette site https://stakecasinoreview.com/stake-bonus-codes/ which I use all the time, I don't have any problems because it is a tested and reliable site.
