I love the clean graphics!

slimmerburger 2020-04-21 10:19

I think it could use a little more progression, like more enemies, but other than that it was really fun. Good job!

chrismcco 2020-04-21 10:20

Really like the concept and style for this. Took me a minute to figure out the controls, but all together great job. Nice touch using the audience as your health.

Fun game and very nice graphics. The gameplay was a bit slow, I think I would have enjoyed playing the game more at 1.5x speed. That together with having so many of lives made me feel done playing after 1 game. It's fun but could have been much more fun with a bit tighter faster action

elesz 2020-04-21 10:30

Funny game! Really like the idea of breaking the back of those cracknutter

gregoire-d 2020-04-21 10:31

Cools graphics and animations ! You should use the arrow keys as well to jump and dash !

akelliona 2020-04-21 10:39

It is nice game. I have one problem that it feels like our heroine is immortal in first play. And moving a bit to slowly for me.

akitl 2020-04-21 11:43

juste magnifique

kemsou 2020-04-21 11:54

Graphics are really cool. I love all the little things like the audience being the "life bar". The animation is really cool to. I play on an Azerty keyboard and I had trouble understanding that 'w' was for jumping and 's' for falling faster

This game is adorable. Its elegance and simplicity could definitely be iterated into something more polished. Pixel perfect and a combo system or a few additional moves and enemies and it could turn into a real game.

tibo 2020-04-21 14:21

The graphics and animation are really good ! And the concept is very original, i really enjoyed playing it, well done !

the-martijn 2020-04-21 14:22

Great game! Lovely artstyle!

Quite a funny take on ballet. The spring sounds are on point, as are the graphics.

As feedback, I'm more familiar with Mario's propeller cap, where clicking down makes you dash down only for as long as you hold it, instead of commiting until you're on the ground.

It's classy that the artwork completely reflects this particular time period and has a nice color palette and matching style. The pixel art is very nice. The game play is so-so... It took me a few minutes to pickup on some of the basic mechanics, but I did eventually start to catch on. Nice entry in the game jam. Best to you.

d1str4kt0r 2020-04-22 01:38

I really liked the art style.. animations are a little stud tho.. it should be more fast paced. But if you speed it up, it could make for a cool mobile game. Keep up the good work!

jake-marks 2020-04-22 04:39

Really nice pixel graphics and art style in general. Too bad there was no win state that I could see.

Played on stream: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/598996314

hoseccan 2020-04-22 06:09

Ha Ha, a very funny game theme) I never thought that ballet could be so cruel)

oldblack 2020-04-22 11:07

Absolutely beautiful pixel art and a nice soundtrack. I do wish there was more to the gameplay or more scenery, though I can understand why there wouldn't be with how much effort clearly went in to the game's set. Nicely done.

sheepycrunch 2020-04-22 17:38

It has adorable and funny concept, I love it! I thought I can attack nutcrackers with "s" move because she's spiral move looks offensive...

gentoogames 2020-04-22 21:20

The game was polished and very well done :) The art looked good, and the music was solid. I think it would have helped to have some explanation that showed you could jump on enemy's backs, and maybe have the difficulty increase over time

gamer-fates 2020-04-23 04:03

Great game. Should definitely work on polishing a bit and further develop. Well done!

goblinkingmatt 2020-04-23 04:06

Very cute game :). I actually appreciated the slower pace, gave more time to premeditate my landings. Would love to see a few more enemies/mechanics.

owl-and-jackalope 2020-04-23 04:07

Great game, great art, great music. Keep up the good work! Thought the audience as a health bar was a very clever concept that I didn't notice until I was near my last audience member. Great job!

mahalis 2020-04-23 04:13

This is really charming. Clever interpretation of the theme. I like the animation style—it looks simple at first glance but there’s a lot of cool details in e.g. the way the nutcrackers land. Good music too, though for some reason it didn’t start until the first time I lost? Anyway: nice job!

bulent-altinay 2020-04-23 04:22

Very nice game. Good graphics.Sounds are very good. I like the music at the end of the game.A music at the start screen would be good too.Congrats... :thumbsup:

gabrielh 2020-04-23 04:26

@mahalis @bulent-altinay Thank you a lot for playing and leaving feedback! There is music during the whole game, but unfortunately it does not work in the browser version, sorry about that.

adamcyounis 2020-04-23 07:27

What a fun take on the theme! I loved the graphical style and animation. Of course, a bit more depth to the gameplay would have been much appreciated (win state, some way to recover crowd? maybe a special move you can do that leaves you vulnerable on the ground but brings people back in the theatre). Overall, I thought the concept and execution of what was there was pretty promising. Thanks for sharing!

wakobu 2020-04-23 10:58

Congratulation for making this game ! These animations were really stunning ! Really great art work ! The music is awesome too but sadly not in web version. Lacks of gameplay mechanics but good gamefeel.

achiru 2020-04-23 11:01

Really cute game ! Too bad the browser version does not have music (and no build for linux), watched the video and it sounds really good ! The mood was really well conveyed, with great animation work. The gameplay is a bit slow for me, and get boring pretty quickly, but I can guess you had some more features in mind. Overall, great work !

krapht 2020-04-23 11:47

cute game felt suppr polished and loved the art. It did take me a little while to figure out I could attack the nut crackers. Before that it felt bland.

masterpose 2020-04-24 01:01

A very solid game, the only things I could say is that when the nut cracker corner you is impossible to escape and it's kind of annoying and I think this game could be a more fast paced one

runuchok 2020-04-25 06:15

Watched it on Pomo_The_Dog stream then played it my self! Very cool! Animations and graphics are superb! Gameplay is fun!

surfingnerd 2020-04-25 20:49

Liked this innovate interpretation of a very old concept :)

abdurrahman-khallouf 2020-04-25 22:27

great art and music. and nice little game here. nothing to complain about here. I think it would make a great mobile game.

I suggest touch right or left to move. and both areas to jump-dive

with more enemies and maybe a leader board.

GJ!

jacksendary 2020-04-27 00:17

@gabrielh Hey there sorry I did not get around to this on in time on stream, it is such a wonderful game, very straight forward, challenging and fun, and best of all it didn't take an hour to play through :D very great little game, I would had liked a score maybe, but besides that it was great! Good job! hope you c-ya around again some times!

marcmagus 2020-04-30 17:25

Thanks for bringing your game by my stream to try! If you'd like to watch again, you can find the highlight at https://www.twitch.tv/videos/606399381

Interesting entry. It was a shame I couldn't get the music working, I can imagine that would have enhanced the experience.

gabrielh 2020-04-30 18:02

@marcmagus thank you for playing! I managed to fix the music issue after your stream, but still, ty for your feedback!
