I'm sorry but there's no link to the project :(

freso 2019-10-07 20:36

@fictions: You are early my friend. Jam deadline isn't there yet. But now we have a playable link. :)

fictions 2019-10-07 20:42

@freso: Oh I'm sorry xD The screenshot was so catchy xD

fictions 2019-10-07 20:47

Great game :) I love the art style :3~ Unbenannt.PNG

shaurya-juneja 2019-10-08 18:52

Nice game dude, cool idea

ben-ash 2019-10-08 18:53

Love it! Love the way animations, the cheeky text, subtle things like hearing wind at the top of the map...only wish there was more. :) Well done!

excy 2019-10-08 18:53

Very polished little game. Your ideas for the dummy being a big-mario style extra health is awesome. Unique art style which really lends to the aesthetic of the game, great job!

paulius 2019-10-08 18:55

Haha, loved the art style! Well done guys, you did a really good job. The game is pretty hard but fun nonetheless.

zoarfy 2019-10-08 18:58

Hi I really enjoyed your game - my favorite one out of this Jam so far.

I really liked the art style and animations of the baby - really well done. Controls were tight and it was fun to play. Perfect length too.

The only thing I would change was that the pacifier was a bit small and hard to find at times!

framg 2019-10-08 18:58

Love the game, very good job!

robodoig 2019-10-08 18:59

Nice animations and art style, well done!

mechwarrior99 2019-10-08 19:00

Nice little game, decent audio, I like the art style. I wish there was a little more interaction from the player. Like having to press Enter to do an action, instead of it just happening automatically. But otherwise, pretty nice.

scottdev 2019-10-08 19:01

Love the art style!

nachtwitch 2019-10-08 19:01

Fascinating entry, I like how much it fits the theme, the graphics are very appealing, snd the gameplay is smooth and fun, 10/10 rating, you deserve it

landera 2019-10-08 19:02

Fun little game, enjoyed the art style.

evilobjective 2019-10-08 19:03

Great job on the art! Those are some really deadly spiders. Simple game but pretty enjoyable.

black-flag 2019-10-08 19:04

This is a really good jam entry... very funny too! I think that the maps are randomly generated, if so then nice touch! The music was also fitting for the forest environment, the death was very brutal yet comedic. Overall, this is a very good jam entry which I can see myself playing again at some point in the future!

nsadie 2019-10-08 19:05

Cool little game. All elements are nicely polished.

pashashef 2019-10-08 19:10

IMHO there are a bit too many spiders in the forest and it is quite hard to get through at times. Overall, the game seems quite empty to the point it is in now. I thought it was building up to something and was expecting something on the other side of the river, but it did finished :( Quite liked the death animation and the way baby shakes its head when mooving. Also i loved the artstyle and the random generation of the obstacles!

sir-galloy-de-fierpate 2019-10-08 19:22

Love the game over ! And that eagle... DAMN LOOK AT THAT BIRD ! Wonderful game, great sounds effect, simple gameplay that is easy to understand. Good job !

freso 2019-10-08 20:01

@zoarfy: True, the dropped pacifier could have been bigger. @black-flag: Yup, randomized.

We also wanted to have more content in the game, but as you all know, time runs out.

ryuu 2019-10-08 20:55

The game is great! Loved the art, the music is pretty cool and the game is very balanced and fun. Well done!!

onury 2019-10-09 19:16

It is enjoyable but the play time could be longer.

honey-pony 2019-10-09 19:44

Awesome graphics and music. The head-bobble might be a little much at times but is pretty neat otherwise.

I only wish the game were a little longer. As in, if there were I few different things I might think to do at each step of the game before finding the right one. I guess that's the limitations of the jam.

grhyll 2019-10-09 20:49

That was cool ^^ The atmosphere is fun and relaxed (and the death is so brutal :') ), nice art, nice music! Those bugs are nasty though :D Took me some time to understand I could scare off the bees!

changemewtf 2019-10-09 21:00

Short & sweet & weirdly adorable!

selkkie 2019-10-09 22:51

Awww, I was really hoping for more! The style was really neat, and I loved the funny little touches like the baby's head bobbling and the birds in the sky. Babies are pretty unusual protagonists, I would have liked to see more!

nikita-lozhkin 2019-10-10 18:52

Good game!

erkberg 2019-10-10 19:52

Whoa, that death animation is brutal! But the game looks, sounds and plays great in general, a very polished experience. Would've loved to see more, it was over way too soon, but I really enjoyed this, good job!

0x53ee71ebe11e 2019-10-11 11:04

Damn, that was one of the most buggy games I ever played! Really well done. I loved the bee puns. It was pretty short though. I would have loved to play some more levels of that.

freso 2019-10-11 11:24

@0x53ee71ebe11e : Haha, by buggy I assume you mean full of bugs, eh... yeah. :D Mmm, I think we could have has a lot more content with one more day.

chuchugeralt 2019-10-11 17:28

Well,well, well. Nice fun game. I would add though, that its hard to see if spiders are spawning behind those trees, therefore killing the poor innocent child! R.I.P Billy

lakrits 2019-10-11 17:41

@chuchugeralt Oh Billy is far from innocent, there's a reason why he was in that basket.

siarhei-pilat 2019-10-11 18:05

Wow, that's a wholesome game! Very well scoped, you get full short experience, I have no complaints! Great job.

kaeveris 2019-10-11 18:17

Cool entry, I like the sounds and the artstyle is awesome! I like how his head moves around when he walks and the death animation is so cruel yet fascinating XD

mharring 2019-10-11 18:59

Neat game! The visuals are great. It was enjoyable but short - perhaps you could have extended the map for more length, with one or two more interactive components. The head bobbing while you walked was both odd and amusing!

lucien-catonnet 2019-10-11 19:01

Very cool and coherent audio and graphics! It seems the texts are position-based only, maybe there should also be a short timer to make sure you have the time to read them, the text for when I filled the bottle went away too fast and I didn't quite get what happened right away. Congratulations on shipping!

landosystems 2019-10-11 19:09

lol @ the description... Accidentally (?) dropped in the river... what a sinister undertone that simple question mark gives to the game. Cute graphics too, loved the bobble head, gruesome fatality animation on death too. Great work!

flying-dog-fish 2019-10-11 21:14

This is a really cute and bloody game, which usually don't make a good combination, but in this case it worked great. Baby Moses has some fun with deadly critters in the forest and then finds his new parents across the river.

space-nomad 2019-10-12 13:43

nice and cute game. too bad it's a little short though also great parenting. poor baby

druvsaft 2019-10-12 15:40

Was not expecting what those spiders did to poor Billy! Also, the spiders really took over if you overstayed your welcome!

I didn't see the exit at first, so I kept walking around the stage looking for more things, but I guess I should have been more observant.

Liked the art and audio, good job!

sver 2019-10-15 10:26

Beheaded by spiders and bees :O Had a lot of fun playing it!

upisfree-2 2019-10-20 20:38

Thank you for a game, enjoyed it!

negator2vc 2019-10-25 19:35

Nice little "baby survival" game! As others have pointed very nice graphics ... AND ALSO LOOK AT THAT BIRD :smile: Nice polished gameplay with my only complain the automatic use of your bottle (instead of using it by pressing a key). Excellent job!
