Hard like Dark Souls! Cute like little kittens! Nice work!
A kawaii version of Super Hexagon =D
The art is really cute!! Awesome game overall. I like the gameplay, it made me want to try again and again to beat the levels. Really really awesome!
cool game idea. It is challenging and fun to play
Amazing job for a GameJam game ! All is perfectly polish !
Great work! Interesting game with cute graphics!
I really need to get a controller if only for games like this! O:
This has to be the most polished and market-ready game I ever played on here! There simply are no flaws, the levels even represent a nice vertical slice of how differently the mechanics can be used! I'm stunned! Absolutely fantastic work!
Brilliant, and well polished, I followed you on itch.io
Yurika...so cute... Amazing game! I'll try to play more times.
Just release it in Steam in this state and I would buy it, clear winner at the moment of writing of the jam for me :)
I found it, thought ok, just try it. (Actually I am not a fan of this art style, but you changed my mind!) Well .. yeah.. I get hooked on it !!! Really love this game! <3
Awesome game! Everything fits so well and it's a lot fun to play!
That game is so cute! It reminds me of a late NDS game
Very cute! Very difficult but the game looked great. I really enjoyed the variety in the level designs. The different enemy types were great and the all around stage shapes made the unstable theme shine. This is an awesome entry!
One of the best games I've played so far, my only comment is that the "second" level is by far the most difficult one, at least in my opinion. I could beat all the others, but that one eluded me
This game's gonna make me have a phobia of rabbits. It's also scary how things can go south in a matter of seconds. That said, the game's a lot of fun. Art is gorgeous and the idea is greatly unique. Gotta be one of the best games of the jam.
This is so well done! The art and animations seriously look like they've been worked on and polished for months by a team of people. Huge kudos to you. I'm glad you decided to let all levels be selectable, because there were quite a few I couldn't beat.
I wanted to play it on controller, but on a PS4 dualshock controller (the only kind I have) the buttons are mapped strangely. Square was jump, x was smash, and circle was attack. Based on the xbox icons that were listed, I don't think this layout was intended.
PRO! cute and fun!Nice cell shading and models
Absolutely amazing! Feels like it could be a full game, honestly! The graphics, music, and gameplay all combine super well. I love how each level explores a new idea - reminds me a bit of Nintendo's design philosphy with stages. The polish is just through the roof - extremely, super well done!
This feels really polished, fits the theme and is definitely one of the best games I've played so far
This is a really great entry! The gameplay set up is awesome, as is the art, the music, the feel- basically everything! Although, I think the balance (pun intended, hehe) holds the game back a little bit. I wish that more things could pile up during gameplay instead of just one or two hazards ending the game almost immediately; it feels a bit sudden. But, that's mostly a nitpick coming from how much I love the 'tilting base' setup and wanting to have more room to enjoy it. Oh, and while playing I was wishing for a double-jump and some sort of combo attack... Anyway, would love to revisit this someday if you ever do a post-compo. Great work!
Super fun, very well made! so many gameplay modes and different enemies crammed into a game jam. Great job!
One critique I have would be the camera, and if the plate falls away from the camera its basically hard to see what's going on.
I think we have a winner here. This is a pretty complete experience.
Cute graphics, super fun mechanics, and a catchy soundtrack. If any game deserves to win, it's this one.
Typing as I'm playing:
1- Okay, presentation is EXCELLENT. I like the cuteness and layout. The title screen "press start" works good if you happen to be using a gamepad, but using a keyboard it'd be nice to say "press start/enter"
2- I like that the GUI can be controlled with keyboard, so many games force you to click with mouse.
3- Tutorial level is nice, but controls are hidden away in the corner. I'd like to see an addition of the controls showing up, one at a time, front and center, until the player learns them.
4- Good addition of a pause screen, another thing usually lacking in these games.
5- whoa! The difficulty spiked immediately. Level 2 seems like it should be level 3 to 5. I'm introduced to jumping enemies AND level hazards at the same time. Maybe slow down a bit.
6- A couple times it seems like the tilt comes and goes past a threshold to quick. It's frustating being stuck at a point of no return so soon.
7- Level 3 seemed easier than level 2. growing weights are an interesting mechanic, but still one that was really thrown in there without warning or leadup,
8- UFO level was cool but again the difficulty spike was huge, having to deal with a relentless attacking enemy for the first time on the same level where you're dealing with platforming on an odd-shaped level for the first time... it's a bit much. I'd suggest one level with the UFO, then one with the +shaped level, then a level with the two of them together.
I'm calling it quits for now but maybe I'll revisit and retry this.
AN INCREDIBLY POLISHED GAME. Probably the best and most refined game I've seen on Ludum Dare so far. The level design is great, the controls are intuitive (and allow for controller support). Theres way moer content than what I would expect for a game made in 2 days. All I have to say is great work!
Dam, this is so cute and well polished! I loved it very much! Yura is really cute. I wish I could give her some nice skins.
Such a cute style and the level themes are really fun. The look is very polished and overall it's a fun game to play. Good job!
Oh, okay, this is INCREDIBLE! I can't believe there are so amazing people here and there. Did you manage to make this game in 72hours? That's out of my hand, congratulations!
Okay, came back and played the game to completion. Really like it. I'd like to port it to Mac if that's okay. I still think the difficulty curve is a bit steep for a jam game. Yeah, I figured out better strategies as I played, but keep in mind most people don't play jam games for very long.
Very good game, even though it is a bit hard ! Animation, art and music are perfect, gameplay is original .I like it !
A good game with a cool backside and beautiful and cute graphics and animation graphics. I really liked it.
@shaolin-dave Thanks for those critiques. And a MacOS build should be available soon!
Also, a thanks for everyone who had critiques and nice things to say! I appreciate you taking the time to check out our game. :)
Such a cute game! I love the art and music the most. It was very challenging, too much for my taste, but the experience was still amazing. Great job. :)
Excellent game, looks great and is really challenging. Maybe a bit too challenging, but if that's the type of game you're aiming for this really is a stand out of the competition.
This game reminds me of Ape Escape, one of my favorite series of all times, with the art style and sounds. I am a huge fan and am hooked, even if it's hard.
**LD49 WINNER DETECTED** :smile:
I think this is the best game I've seen so far for LD49, great job! Almost everything about it is polished, and it shows strong connection to the theme. The aesthetic of the game reminded me a lot of A Hat In Time for some reason.
You should really consider turning this into a full and complete game, it would be a great party game sitting alongside things like Overcooked.
I haven't reviewed too many other games yet, but I have a feeling this is top 10.
Super hard level is really hard! Perfect job done!!
Very good, but a bit unforgiving. Could not beat the second level. It would be great if I could see the field even if it is tilted a bit away.
Awesome game! I really enjoyed playing it! Graphics is very cute and each level has a different mechanic. Great submission!
This is possibly the best game I've played so far in LD49! Played on a controller, and the controls are silky smooth. Love the cute art style, and the design of the gameplay is really well thought out! It is quite a hard game, though, and I couldn't complete all the levels :(
Here comes some suggestions:
The levels are, (in my opinion :p), not arranged in order of difficulty. This is not necessary of course, but if you would make this a full game later on, and choose to lock certain levels until others have been completed first, then maybe it is good to increase difficulty gradually.
Maybe add a charge-up attack? Not necessary in any way, but could be fun!
Jump height could be higher, or maybe a double-jump ability could be added.
Also a small nitpick, I noticed that some fonts didn't reeeeally match the game's aesthetic. Could just be personal opinion, though!
Really well polished and could very well be a must-play from this year's Jam, especially if you have a controller! Fits the theme very well too!
Awesome work!
EDIT: Forgot to mention that the sound design is awesome and super cute!
I think this is the most finished game I played in ld49 you made this in 3 days unbelievable the game is so much fun :gift_heart:
Well polished and adorable as always dude. Great work on the game :) You always impress me with how much you fit in a jam
cute and tricky game with original game mechanics. also, i have to say i really like the music!
The shader and character animation are so gooood. The character controls is also smooth. Adding more items and stage challenges or multiplayer mode will be more fun to play!
great at just about everything! It is definitely a game that can become commercial. Many people would buy for the finish level, challenge and fun. One of the best games I've seen so far.
Congratulations!
Really cute and fun game, I love it, nice work!
Ми-ми-ми-милая героиня. С милой... милой метлой. А какие у нее глаза! Отличная работа!

Fine! You did it! I can't get past this level! But I still love this game! The audio, design, gameplay and character are incredibly good!
@ullent Hahaha, thanks for trying though.
Ok, this was THE game for me! I really enjoyed it! Super fun and challenging. The art is cute and the music cheerful. After an hour playing, I made it! I'm so proud of myself :cry:.
Sin título.png
Thanks for making this! It's my favorite so far, it's gonna be hard to top it
@notaltright Nice! And thanks!
haha, very polished, but much too hard for me :)
The game is really hard even at level 2 I had such a good time on it, i will look forward for your future productions Congratulations !
Cute and very polished art for a jam, same for sounds ! I think the game lacks of balance particularly on the "Jump" level that was nearly impossible to do, you just have to pray for the spawn spots of these damn bunnies to be near you, otherwise you're dead when they begin jumping while also cleaning the rocks. But that's just tatting, that's a really good entry for a jam !
Damn, looks like I found the really best game of this jam ever.
Gee golly gosh, where to even begin. It goes without saying, but the art and animation is impeccable. Just by looking at this, I wouldn't have guessed that this is a game jam entry. I absolutely adore the artstyle. The music is awesome as well (SIX tracks on that level of quality is insane).
The gameplay itself could use a bit of polish, the character is too slippery for the size of the platform and it ends up being a bit frustrating to play (I didn't have the patience to finish a single stage). But good god is it pleasing to the eyes (and ears). I don't even care that the gameplay is a bit finnicky, this seriously impressed me.
I'm astounded that something of this level of polish and fun was able to be created during the jam. The visuals are very pretty and the gameplay is tight. If this was on steam as is I'd hardly think anything of it. massive props to the team.
Nice job! That difficulty really ramps up quick! I enjoyed seeing the different mechanics in the later levels even though I clearly had no chance of clearing any of them. Also, great itch.io page theme!
My only other critique is that some of the sound effects seem a little phoned in (the jump sound sounds like something straight out of sfxr) compared to the rest of the audio which is all fantastic.
Awesome gameplay and graphics! I enjoyed a lot. Great work!
A very beautiful game! I liked the appearance, but I could not pass any of the levels, since it is very difficult to determine which of the objects weighs more. You go to remove the big rock, but the three small ones on the other side still outweigh, even if you jump. But the game is still good.
Great work! Very clear game mechanics, though it can become very difficult to read the game state when the platform is heavily tilted. Music and graphics are very polished, very impressive for such a short period of time.
Holy cow what a good game. The level of polish and execution is unbelievable, you should be so proud! It's cute, fun, and difficult. Truly amazing. Great work!
Nice game, very great art, good gameplay but bit hard for me (not my type of game)
Great work, kind of tricky, but a lot of fun to play.
Very Fun gameplay, the Graphics, Audio is really good and matches in style. I can easily see this game on the switch console. OO I just test with my old xbox controller to see if I could use it and it works GREAT JOB, and feels much more fun with a controller. 7 out of 5
Very polished game with funny and varied gameplay mechanics. I had only struggle with **Jump** and **Super Hard** levels. In my opinions brown rabbits are very over-powered along with weight blocks. They impact level very fast. Also, sometimes you might get a dead-zone camera viewpoint when you legitimately still alive but "paralyzed" due to lack of view when platform overflows in X axis far from you (2nd screenshot)
In-total I got a lot of fun playing the game, great work!

@bbaf Nice work clearing Super Hard!
Super awesome! Really well done 3D art. The characters and environment are all really cute. I thought the sound design was really good too. The character controls felt a little bit slippery to me, but it feel intentional and part of the challenge. The different stages and their mechanics were interesting, though some of them were a lot harder than others.
I liked the music, and the art is very kawaii.
The controls are responsive.
The unstable platform matches the theme perfectly.
So fun! brilliant graphic and audio, impressive gameplay, i really like the idea of the platform
Great entry! I don't know how you had the time to make all those animations for the character but good job. The visuals look really great! Most of the levels felt like just the right amount of difficulty, except the Jump! one. The big pounding rabbits felt like if they got in more than 1 hit you were done and with everything else going on it was almost impossible to get to them in time. I also found I was never really using the ground pound because it didn't really feel like it had any effect.
I went in thinking this game was gonna be easy and that I'd clear all of the levels in 15 minutes.
I was wrong. I was so, so far from the truth. This game is extremely challenging.
This game is exactly what I imagine when thinking of this jam's theme 'Unstable'. Having to defend your platform is a brilliant decision and I love the variety in stages which introduces you to new obstacles that may impede in your goal. A lot of my wins were clutch wins and I can't imagine how long I'll be playing to 100% completion.
For a game made within 3 days, you did a darn good job in every single category! This is definitely a game I will be keeping on my desktop to play from time to time :)
A level corresponds to a gameplay, nice work!
And the maid is cute❤
The difficulty ramps up a bit too fast for a jam game, so it's a bit hard to get good enough to beat any stages within the short time most people would play for each entry. Still one of the better games in the jam, and definitely could be expanded upon with a wider range of challenge.
Very cute but so damn hard! I did manage to finish levels 1, 3 and 5 before getting impossibly stumped at 2 (died 10 times in a row on that one). Very enjoyable and very fun variation in mechanics and stages!
Really fun to play!!
The artstyle isn't for me, but from a fidelity perspective this is one of the most polished games I've seen as far as visuals go. Audio is also decidedly punchy, though I don't care for the sort of lunge forward the player does when attacking-- when enemies damage the player on collision, this tends to lead to frustrating and unnecessary damage.
The gameplay has some neat concepts that seem to be executed well enough, but I would definitely recommend some easier first few levels before introducing the hardest challenges. It can feel like you have to catch your bearings on stages where you can lose in seconds due to being just short of stpoping a growing weight or a jumping rabbit. In short, a solid entry-- nice work!
This game is top 3 for me! I really like the style XD
