A really clever take on the theme!

Cool interpretation of the theme! I think you could have made some of the hitboxes a bit more forgiving, and some of the jumps seemed impossible, but I still liked it!

I like this game!

The idea really fits the theme. An animation of the satellite falling into shards would have been cool

Cool game. Interesting implementation of the theme. Nice Job!

chargrills21 2021-10-05 10:57

@hilkojj That is a great idea, which I plan to try animating(somehow?) at a later date. Thank you for your feedback!

chargrills21 2021-10-05 10:58

@the-vecter I agree that the hitboxes could have been more gracious, and that the game should be easier, or have a difficulty curve. Thank you for your feedback!

had a lot of fun playing it!

That was difficult, but pretty fun. Also good take on the theme. Good Job!

TOOK ME 200s BUT I DID IT. I BEAT THE GAME.Props for making a genuinely unstable game, I love it. If there was text mentioning that I could wall jump I missed it, but I figured it out anyway so I guess it was intuitive enough lol.

chargrills21 2021-10-06 06:08

@nethead That is a very good time for the game, well done on beating it. I agree that there should have been a text saying you can wall jump.

@sli The game definitely should have been easier, and progressively more tough/have levels or worlds.

Thank you for your feedback

Very fun game! It had some tough but fun platforming.

Couldn't tell what was going on, I kept getting the overlay about Twatch.tv and it kept resetting me. Maybe a tutorial? Seems like others figured it out and enjoyed it so I'm interested in getting it to work.

chargrills21 2021-10-07 21:27

@gus-goucher that shouldn't be happening and is likely a bug or something like that. Sorry!

Clever, but so frustrating. I couldn't move very far before the "internet" cut out again. I don't know if it's a bug or something, but I couldn't do anything without the "wifi out" signal coming up, and a little T-rex showing up. It might be bugged on the HTML version if this isn't what's supposed to happen. Maybe a delta time problem?

Interesting idea, but the hitboxes were frustrating. For some reason the "internet" did not cut for me

Okay, at first I thought the game was way too hard. Spend over a minute to get through the first two jumps (to the right). But after a while I got the hang of it and learned how to wall jump. The mechanics work quite nicely. Except some minor edge cases (when running over a ledge while wanting to jump), the controls feel very good.

To improve: - A soundtrack would have made the game ;) - Sprite/animation of the protagonist could have been more interesting.

Great job!

My highscore was 484.

I also got the twatch.tv bug but it settled down after a while, thankfully. The jump mechanics themselves weren't bad after that.
