I love the pixel graphics. Really clean and really simple. I also like how you incorporated a bit of the "Everything changes at night" theme from the final round theme voting with the shooting stars (not sure if it was intentional or not). Good job on this! I was only able to make it up to silver though :\

@lb01 Thank you for the feedback! The start weren't in connection with the themes actually, i just made a roadmap of what i wanted to do in the 48 hours and included stars right away, i just like shiny things.

Perfect fit for the theme and those visuals are amazing! Well done!

I think I broke it hehehe...

It's fun when you don't cheese it though. I think it respects the theme and makes for a fun little time waster. Maybe would've appreciated more content but nothing wrong with keeping it simple :)

@vectrex28 Wow, i think you're the first person i've seen who did that lol. I made 6 of my friends test it beforehand and none of them found any cheeses. Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it!

Lovely clean pixel art, and a really good fit for the theme :)

I'd die for Demy Thanks for reviewing my game, I found yours to be quite fun & enjoyable as well! The graphics were cute, and the gameplay was solid as a brick. I especially liked how the movement felt responsive even if the log was almost vertical, it made the gameplay feel much more better. Altough I didnt quite understand what was the purpose of the "plus" and the ice cream icon on the left, I still finished the game and got to see the secret ending! I hope you the best of luck in the ratings!

Cool idea, great fit for the theme! Nice execution, cute pixel art and love the main character! Got a bit hectic at times and took me a few tries to get a "good" score (no idea if this is good). I think the only thing I would improve a bit would be the audio effects and making the falling parts a tiny bit bouncy to have a better gamefeel.

Amazing job in 48h!

Nice game.

i got 1172 points! granted i did this by getting the log on its side and simply standing there. i assume that was not intentional

(good game though! fun, polished)

Very well done. I was a little surprised that the falling rocks didn't harm little Demy, but that probably would have made the game far more difficult. I found the powerups very difficult to collect, but I am also not very good at games. ;) Good visuals, and good sound design. The ambient noise represented a mountaintop quite well. Overall a great entry!

@m11 @zantze @marc-grabow @theviraldragon @parafactual Thank you for your kind words!

@myles-doupe Thank you aswell! Regarding the ambient noise, i made it by bringing the microphone close to my airconditioner lol

Well very polished!

Fun game and solid gameplay

varundevs 2021-10-05 01:49 ♥ 1

It's hard to balance which means it uses the theme when it comes to art it has to have 5 stars.

Pretty fun, pretty cute! I like the pixel art! Took me a bit to get the hang of it but once I did it became very enjoyable.

dsoberdan 2021-10-05 02:54 ♥ 1

Super fun! Pixel art was great. Every time I tried going for the ice cream I fell and died so I kinda just gave up on them, but I got to silver! Great job :D

Really nice game, simple and well made. Good job =D

spudboy 2021-10-08 05:52 ♥ 1

Pretty simple game. Sometimes the physics and player movement feel a little bit wonky. I don't see how you can safely grab a powerup without falling into the void or knocking your platform over.

Really fun entry! The main mechanic is simple and fits the theme perfectly. Graphics are amazing and game is polished. Well done!

The pixel art is spot on, nice work on that. Maybe I'm just really bad at your game, but I think it gets too hard too fast. I would have liked to see a longer ramp up at the start of the game.
