This game is super fun. I'm a big fan of the UI you created, it's intuitive, looks good and very responsive!

Wow, what a fun and well polished game! I would love to see more of the harvesting theme worked into this in the future.

dudud dudud dududu - had a blast, even though I didnt really feel in control of whats happening. Great artwork, sound and execution.

LD embedded didn't work (Failed to read the 'serviceWorker' property from 'Navigator': Service worker is disabled because the context is sandboxed and lacks the 'allow-same-origin' flag.), but offsite build did!

The soundtrack is a little werid, but the gameplay is really fun. Graphics and mood fit well. The interface is also really nice, enjoyed the stats overview.

@schnodelfactory thanks for pointing that out! I believe I've fixed that problem now; seems to be a known issue with Godot's export. https://ludumdare.com/resources/guides/embedding/

*My score is 48407*

brattyxec 2023-01-09 22:05

Easy and fun! Movement is feeling good:)

lewl 2023-01-09 23:01

Easy and addictive!

Great song, Blob got lost every now and then in the north - the holding on to some rocks took me back to Worms times with the hook shot! GG

Very fun physics, I liked the floatiness. I didn't really understand the grab early on (and I don't think I really needed it), I think some better tutorials-by-example earlier would help.

achilnos 2023-01-09 23:07

Really nice game and well polished. Like the graphics, audio and gameplay was a lot of fun. I like how overly chaotic the game feels. If there was room for improvement I would say the game needs to force an end. For me it felt almost impossible to die without actively trying to collide with enemies. Having the game ramp up the difficulty over time would make the end score more satisfying as you struggle to survive. In the end I found myself off screen where I could no longer die or get back onto the screen.

Overall really enjoyed!

nostresswes 2023-01-09 23:19

Nice game! Really nice art style and audio. Wish I had more control other than the grab but it's still really fun to play!

buni 2023-01-09 23:23

Your game is nicely polished and really fun. The sprites, sound, effects are nice and I really enjoyed it!

slantyoj 2023-01-10 00:07

Highlight of the games I've played so far. Great polish, super cute. Trying to come up with any constructive feedback, the only thing I can think of is I got stuck off the top of the screen for a bit. The icon to show where you are is helpful, but since you can't see the rocks up there all I could do was move around randomly until I eventually fell down. I'm not sure how you fix that, maybe after some time it teleports you back to the start position? Or have the rocks die off sooner so you don't keep hitting them?

triangle-point 2023-01-10 01:22

Super fun game! Gameplay is awesome and the music is a jam!

sciman101 2023-01-10 01:52

This is really cute, the graphics and sound together have a really nice vibe to them, great job on the presentation! My only real critique is that the whole thing feels a little *too* frantic, It can be easy to lose track of yourself and whats going on in the sea of Everything happening. Maybe slow the camera down a bit to start, and also raise the platform more so you have more time to react to stuff coming from the bottom of the screen? Either way, that's a nitpick in my opinion, this is a cute, if fast paced, little platformer you've made, great work.

vyndilis 2023-01-10 02:32

Very cute graphics, sometimes there is too much information at the same time but still very fun and easy. I really like the feeling of sliding!

My best score :

depth : 6554

score : 27531

hypernoodlejon 2023-01-10 02:37

Really charming combination of graphics and sound! loved the very hand crafted feel of everything, almost like it was made from construction paper with kids playing around making the do-do-do sound effects, fantastic mood.

bowen 2023-01-10 09:27

I like the control of your game, it's great, the only thing I what this to improve is gaving me more challenging, becuase I didnt face any challenge and the difficulty of the game didnt rise too.

pusheeneiro 2023-01-10 10:45

Nice looking game and addictive gameplay.

nyxkn 2023-01-10 12:14

Really well presented and great aesthetics. I loved how well color is used to make it very clear what hurts and what you can pickup. I disliked the small stutter on taking damage as it felt like breaking the flow. I thought screen was a bit too cramped and there wasn't enough of a chance to make better use of the cool movement mechanics. Also sometimes a gap between stones would be just a tiny bit too small to fit and that was annoying. Overall excellent arcade-style game with fun gameplay!

phillip-scott 2023-01-10 13:23

So many particles :smile: well done feels nice and well polished image_2023-01-10_132330821.png

Really good game! Very polished and feels good, I will say that the controls were a bit hard to get the hang of at first, but after a bit I got it. LudumDare_Screenshot_04.png

hfsevans 2023-01-10 21:11

Nice fun entry! Look and sound really went with it. I think a key issue (for me) is that you can't see what's coming up, so it just felt like I was randomly moving across the screen and hoping. There's a good reason Doodle Jump goes up and lets you see the playforms coming. BUT that's a super easy fix, just divide the level in the middle of the screen so we can see our options and choose a route on the fly. Great submission!

secrt101 2023-01-11 07:01

Really fun! Could play this for hours!

ghpxi 2023-01-11 07:06

It's really fun, movement feels good and nice sounds made it fun.

sid-fish 2023-01-11 11:44

Very juicy game with a bunch of personality. I had a blast playing and I appreciate that you made the health bar huge as there was so much happening on the screen. Awesome job!

afe 2023-01-11 15:16

Got a bit confused by the "auto-jump" on the plattform - but it feels very intuitive to play the game and its a lot of fun! Great Art-Style. Love all the animation details you built into the game!

karlo5o 2023-01-11 19:35

Nice game, the level generating was really great, however sometimes the shapes was created to much close to each other and I got stuck, but I always managed to got away somehow :smile: Also the graphics was just ideal for this type of game. I appreaciate there were more types of attacks from enemies. Somehow I almost never used the grabbing, I was only jumping and falling :smile: and managed to get 50000 score, probably luck. The only thing with which a had a problem is the main menu, the moving screen and grabbing to start didn't work for me, also I dont know why the slim is jumping when he is on the drill. But overall, great game!

jackypark9852 2023-01-12 08:13

Love the slime character, especially how it just flattens on the dirt blocks. The art style is very cute and the music fits it very well. The controls and level generation are definetely the highlight of this game. It felt very satisfying to dive between blocks and catch power ups mid jump. However, I couldn't find a use for the grab button too much, the slime had no trouble staying on the sloped surface. Maybe make it so that grab is essential to staying still, and it would make the control more dynamic. Also, having more variety of enemies spawn later on would add to the experience too, as it got stale after I met all of the enemies. Overall, this level of polish in a game jam game is an achievement, and you guys nailed it! Congrats!

harmofish 2023-01-12 08:25

Excellent game. The screen and operation are both extremely smooth. The level's difficulty is also very appropriate. It appeals to me greatly.

kinggurke 2023-01-12 08:41

The overall look, and especially the UI felt super polished! The controls were a bit janky, but it kinda felt like that was part of the games charm. I also really liked how the more valuable gems, as well as health, spawned in the most dangerous area, that madee it really fun! The only gripe I had with it was that you could get stuck above the screen and have no idea how to come back down. I ended up losing because of that.

papabirb 2023-01-12 09:48

Never really got the hang of it and kept mistaking the big bouncing blue shapes for enemies since they look so spikey (despite already making a mental node that Red Is Bad) but I had a great time and the music was extremely cute and fun. Great work!

Interesting gameplay, cute graphics. It's fun and dynamic.

rosypenguin 2023-01-13 03:59

Cute and fast-paced! Love the slime character and its deformations around the terrain. The arcade gameplay makes it for great replayability. Nice work!

jumpirate 2023-01-13 06:02

Pretty fun game! Moderate difficulty, good game experience. (The music is kind of magical)

amarokczukay 2023-01-13 13:09

This entry is at the same time really fun and really addictive! Animations and sounds are on point, and it is really one of these games i know i may play again after the jam!

The only downside for me was when your character gets stuck on a high platform and you have to blindly move him and hope it'll eventually come back at some point.

daveco 2023-01-14 19:27

Fun take on the falling puzzler! This could be the foundation for something big. Perhaps some roguelite elements. I did find that if you don't jump down and stay on a platform you effectively get stuck and never lose :)

adrien-tremblay 2023-01-15 00:30

Cool game. I liked the graphics and how there are a lot of things going on in the screen. Reminds me of an old school arcade game. Wasn't a huge fan of the music though

chybby 2023-01-15 10:10

This was so chaotic haha. I'm glad things were colour coded so I could tell what I was meant to avoid.

Eventually I got stuck somewhere off screen.

lenan 2023-01-19 00:54

Cool game, the music got a little repetitive after some time, but overall nice game
