That was fun! I like the level design, and the controls felt nice :) I really like the camera zoom mechanic when you moved or stood still that was a cool idea! Nice work!

I laughed when I hit an enemy the first time - I didn't expect to go flying like that! I would have preferred a higher difficulty to the levels - but it was fun overall. Good job on your first Ludum Dare!

Really liked the level design as well as the camera movement! Overall, it was a very fun platformer!

I thought it was cute and fun! Of course I wanted more but I totally understand it's hard to make a lot of content in a short amount of time! I liked the colorful sprites.

Hey @coolguy6316 , I quite liked your little platformer, and love the assets (Kenny Assets!). These are the same ones I'm using in a little game called Sam Jones Treasure Hunter :) I think the only feedback I have is that the water by default is difficult (maybe I have old man eyes) to see haha but managed to finish it pretty fast after two water deaths :) Great entry! @bigbadollie , SamJones!

@picusbgames Thanks! glad you liked it :D I'm hoping to next time try do my own assets, going to be interesting xD

picusbgames 2020-04-24 15:56

@coolguy6316 Oh don't get me wrong, using existing assets is a perfectly valid and good option to save time. Also, I'm not artist so I generally go in knowing I will be finding art, music and sound assets to use (unless I'm teamed up with an artist!)

Hey, it was a nic little game. The controls felt a bit weird, and I didn't like restarting the whole game after some fails. But congrats on finishing a game!

Also, I had an UI bug, where it was a bit tricky to start the game: uibug.png

Hey - grats on doing the LDJam! Like I said on stream - the main pitfalls here is that the theme isn't really strong. I can see you put effort into making it seem important - but the thing you're keeping alive is essentially a glorified timer! However, I enjoyed the level design and was good to see a bunch of mechanics implemented.
