Unfortunately I'm not able to play the game I get this error: Unable to get property 'getParameter' of undefined or null reference.

I love Jeffrey but I also had to give up my small turtle in the lava level x( It always tried to come to me and died in the lava, poor one

The physics are a bit hectic, but let's say that adds to the difficulty. I like your take on the theme.

♫Jeffery the turtle, over obstacles he hurdles.♫ Yo level 3 was wild with the two crabs and I grabbed my baby and I went in the water but instead of falling into it and winning I walked across it and fell off the map and now the game broke.

Fun game! The blood effects were great and shocked me the first time they happened. A little buggy though, my lil buddy Jeffrey got stuck in a wall once, and it's weird you can just fall off the level if you don't bring Jeffrey. Additionally, it would have been awesome to have some indicator when you moved levels, especially the ones where you start in the water again, it felt really jumpy to suddenly be in a new level but at the same position.

It was fun, the only complaint I have would be the clunky controls.

I get WebGL context lost and asked to reload the page :(

Fun and hard game but seems buggy sometimes

Nice game, my favorite part was the baby turtle's behavior and how it was constantly jumping around and running away. I felt like I couldn't trust the baby, which made those sections where I needed to drop him in order to hit a switch more tense. Platforming through these level designs was fun, and I liked the solution to the bonus level (at least what I did was to ride the bird after hitting the trampoline). It feels like if your player turtle is more than halfway off of a ledge it starts to slide off - it made some jumps quite timing sensitive.

> I felt like I couldn’t trust the baby,

+1 It's a part of the game, I feel the control little hard (Crab + turtle is a good idea) ~~In my game I have turtles too but monsters are not crabs but gulls~~

Nice take on the theme, even though turtles don't really care for their young in real live ;). I got a bit annoyed with the wonky controls, though.

See me finishing the main game but giving up on the bonus level: https://youtu.be/M5VlXhreGYo

Fun game! Definetly rough in a few spots but I definitely had fun playing. In the first level you introduce lava I had the baby turtle dying over and over before I could even get to it which was pretty frustrating. Although I do like how you slowly introduce new mechanics into the mix. In the bonus level I would be sliding off of ledges which I don't know if it was intended but was pretty frustrating when I would die even though I thought I made the jump.

I like how the level design changes each time. Only confusing part was how to win

natwomb 2020-05-04 20:28

Nice! Liked the short and varying level design. Also the babie's kind of wacky and individual behaviour made for a nice vibe. Had a hard time at something like level 4 where the baby was a bit too suicidal for me to reach him in about 10-15 tries though :laughing:

Fun! This game has a lot of content for a game jam game. I like the task of keeping the spastic little baby turtle alive. Good work :)

Here I was, thinking my game was the only one in which you had to keep a turtle alive. Fun game, good simulation of how kids' actions are mostly random :laughing:

so I moved forward and then I fell into the void void void, but I'm still a turtle
