Interesting concept, definetely in line with the theme, but I've had very much difficulty with the egg. For a long time I couldn't even go over first platforms :/

I would suggest gradually increasing egg handling difficulty, to get player used to handling movement and egg at once.

Intresting gameplay and took this years theme! Congrats!

ilimanic 2020-04-21 11:06

Very interesting idea, the game at the same time is very funny and difficult.

duck-reaction 2020-04-21 19:48

Very good idea, maybe a increasing difficulty will be better. Make it more juicy and it will be a very nice game.

Well done.

Egg collisions are a bit buggy but other than that well done

aimainiac 2020-04-21 23:26

Neat concept, although keeping the egg in the basket is kind of hard.

thristhart 2020-04-21 23:50

I really like the fact that the camera follows the egg rather than the player, that's a fun touch. I found the time it takes to respawn a little frustratingly slow, given how frequently I was dying.

This game is about a doom guy in angry birds world. Small and funny.

annie-owl 2020-04-22 21:21

That game was very fun to play, movement felt perfect and your music choice is perfect for this gameplay and the character :smile: Unfortunately there is one unpleasant bug: when the egg falls on a moving platform it doesn't break, and when you fall into the pit the game does not end, so I ended up in this situation and had to restart the game :slight_frown: scrn_3.png

Interesting game idea, kinda like an egg and spoon race gone whacky!

blakegamedev 2020-04-23 06:01

A very amusing concept that was quite fun. Pretty challenging also, trying to multitask between the platforming and juggling the egg. I enjoyed it, even though I didn't manage to make it very far. Well done.

Super nice game haha

splitpainter 2020-04-23 07:04

This is a really cool concept, it has something which most game jam games don't have: replay factor and addictiveness, also it is perfect to play around with the family to see who gets the farthest, since it is very challenging, yet fun. The music helps the fun. I didn't go far, after many tries, but I'll come back to it on the weekend to try to finish it hahaha

This game seriously ticks all the boxes of any popular rage game out there! Catchy music? Check! Predictable and punishing gameplay? Check! Fast resets? Check! Just perfect! Well done!

@leniwabula Thanks for playing, it does start off very difficult and I also noticed this after seeing a couple of people play my game (after submission). Thanks again for trying it out and the feedback :)

sid-fish-games 2020-04-23 10:24

@flamus, @ilimanic, @duck-reaction, @forging-foxes, @aimainiac Thanks for playing my game, the rating and the feedback, appreciate it :)

sid-fish-games 2020-04-23 10:26

@thristhart Thanks for the feedback. I will look at making the re-spawn faster should I further develop it.

sid-fish-games 2020-04-23 10:27

@artyom-volkov Thats a really funny way of looking at it, should get you to do PR for it, lol. Thanks for playing.

sid-fish-games 2020-04-23 11:01

@annie-owl Thanks for playing, only found out about the bug after publishing and seeing that lone egg on that platform makes me sad. Great to hear you had fun with it otherwise.

sid-fish-games 2020-04-23 11:02

@ponypen, @blakegamedev, @kokiriboots Thank you all for trying it out

sid-fish-games 2020-04-23 11:13

@splitpainter Thanks for playing. Hearing feedback like yours really makes it worthwhile and makes me want to keep improving it :)

sid-fish-games 2020-04-23 11:14

@andidebob thanks for the kind feedback, appreciate you playing.

sid-fish-games 2020-04-23 11:16

@ursagames thanks for playing, it was great to see someone play through the whole game (which means that the end sequence was not made in vain, lol).

erebus 2020-04-24 00:32

Really good entry! Thanks for bringing it by the stream!

lexyvil 2020-04-24 06:38

Really simple and addicting gameplay! I only made it as far as the second checkpoint.

bitpokit 2020-04-24 22:16

I saw this in a stream and tried it myself! It's super fun and charming! I love the art and the music too! Mechanics are solid. Sometimes the character feels a little floaty, but I think it works especially since you have to catch the egg when you land! Awesome job! :smile_cat:

sparsha-dhar 2020-04-25 08:06

Nice game! But sometimes the egg passes through the Basket (or egg holder) :cry:

trexxak 2020-04-28 12:28

eggselent fun game! I am a bit impatient with balancing games however, so thank you for uploading a video featuring the shooting mechanic.

Clever combination!

2020-05-05 17:08

Fun little platformer! I included it in my Ludum Dare 46 compilation video series, if you want to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/hSxuRpvTWAs

"AH the music is cool"

10 mins after trying to get through the game...

"This music though...".

I enjoyed this game more than I should have. Simple mechanics but that physics twist that adds the unpredictability to an otherwise predictable genre.
