The ambiance is really cool, and I love cupcakes
a bit of a simpler game submission, but still interesting
This is a cute game. The initial jump height seems a bit short, buying the jelly was helpful. The ground collision does not seem to be even as I kept getting stuck walking. The enemy paths seem to be weird, some of them go through pipes and walls. I do like the upgrade system after the level completion, adds more incentive to collect the currency. I wish it did have more levels to make it a sort of varied path platformer based on the upgrades bought. Good work!
It's very cheery and upbeat, I love that!
Though as soon as I started playing, I felt as if the level design was suspiciously familiar... What could it be, huh?
In any case, the enemies are a bit unpredictable. Sometimes they stop at a wall or ledge, but sometimes they pass right through the pipes-- err, blocks, and they are extremely fast, extremely deadly and can take a lot of damage, they take more cupcakes to kill than you can hold at any one time (at least when you start out) and that's a little... unfair? As the first level is coming to a close there are UNRULY SWARMS of super deadly enemies, and I could only clear the level by avoiding them altogether, and then I didn't have enough Currency to buy any significant upgrade.
And platforms that look like you should reach with one jump actually require expertly timed double jumps, as in, you have to perform your double jump at the very apex of your first jump in order to climb platforms, it'd be fine if it was required only some of the time, or even just for secrets, but lots and lots of jumps require these well timed double-jumps, no way around it.
It's a sweet game! I like the artstyle and the cheery music, but the gameplay itself, well, I didn't find it very fun.
hi cupcake makers :) especially the sweet graphic style is very cool. next time do not forget the brownies :)
Feels kinda buggy. Double-jump doesn't work sometimes.
Cute game, great mood. The collision of the ground is a problem, I died just because the game didn't understand I wanted to move.
Cool, I'm hungry now! Cute little game! I just had some difficulty with the floor tiles from time to time. The player collides with them and stops walking. Funny anyway!
Cute but hard game! Love the graphics.
@toppervideogames Thanks for the feedback, I recently did an update that should fix a lot the problems with the collision and enemies.
@catusfelony Thanks for the feedback and yea its a recreation of World 1-1 in Mario Bros.
@twinsides Hey thanks for playing, I was able to fix a lot of the physics bugs today, I am not sure if it solved the double jump problem however.
@gord10ahmet Thanks I was definitely going for a cute vibe, I was actually able to fix a lot of the physics and collision bugs today, so that should not happen anymore.
@theog I'm glad you enjoyed the game! I made a quick hot fix that should fix a lot of the collision problems.
@scott-steffes Thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed the graphics.
Like the aesthetic! Enemies are a pretty fast compared to goombas and overall felt a bit floaty. Double jump kinda makes up for it though
Cute little plat former with simple but fun mechanics!
It looks nice and the music is so funny, but it’s a little inconvenient to control it, not to mention that the R button is useless.
This game actually has potential if you add more levels!
