Not bad, I wish the character wouldn't stop to a halt from those fast speeds but I got used to it.

Really solid game with a great retro feel to it. Nice job!

The controls feel a bit weird, the top speed feels a bit too aggressive. But together with the chaotic music, it gives it a weird madcap energy that is quite amusing. It was a treat to play!

Oh man, feels like E.T. for Atari! In a good way! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Very speedy character, but I think it actually helps the red mushrooms feel more threatening. I also like how mushrooms can be hiding behind trees, adds some suspense when you have to run through some trees to get to a different part of the map.

For some reason I really expected there to be wraparound. Not a negative, just an observation :slight_smile:

Also, the only game I've played so far that I've been able to finish! Great difficulty balancing.

The game is really cool but I have to admit that it's too fast for me ^^

starting to really like these PICO games.. old style 8-bit graphics, cool sound effects, simple yet fun gameplay.. nice game !

I think I ran on a redcap just after leveling up... Nice retro feel!

Good job for doing a jam with pico 8 constraints. Game is cool

Felt good. I liked how the mushrooms got increasingly more rare valuable (irl) and you had to collect fewer. I definitely felt the time pressure too! And ofc I loved the PICO8.
