The ending got me. Took me a few tries. Every time I failed and saw the bord fall down again it sort of felt like "Getting over it". Pain. Pretty satisfying to catch it again before it could reach the bottom.

Note; I had to restart once because the bord managed to lodge itself in a corner so I couldn't pick it up.

@Neollok that bug made me laugh lol

Cute game. The bird falling out of the nest was super cute, and the ending made me laugh. Nice work!

As a player of Bennett Foddy type game, this one is pretty good. I liked the premise and level design and how great it felt to beat it. Only thing, the movement is a little too stiff and slippery, if you turn the friction up a bit you should be good. Otherwise, great game! Also, love the ending

this is a very charming game :) the losing bord mechanic reminds me a lot of yoshi's island, a neat & enjoyable mechanic! the controls were a little slippery & had their quirks (the jump feels more like a jetpack), but i think this really added to this experience! i love a platformer that feels unique

@dishwand thank you! I was exactly imagining yoshi's island when I made the mechanic. Thanks for playing!

endgame.png Had to post just to prove I got bord home safe.

I feel both accomplished and angry at all my mistakes and then having to chase down bord. Well done on the game!

Man this one was giving me getting over it vibes, hopefully that's what you were going for haha. I wish Snoopy had a double jump. Good entry!

@hatheus Thank you for returning bord . Wait ! That bord does not look safe there !

hatheus 2023-05-03 04:05

@guin36 No bords were harmed in the taking of that screenshot!

Nice game! I thought the mechanic of the bird getting knocked off your head and having to go get it was pretty clever (although I found it tough to actually grab him haha)

I like the idea and I had fun trying it. But for me it was too difficult, and I was never able to get very far. I like visuals of Snoopy and the bird. Overall I think it is a pretty fun little jam game.

I like the idea of running away, but the flight physics needs some work.

Super cute, super frustrating. I'm afraid I abandoned the bord to its fate

A very simple platformer, but I really liked the mechanics of catching a bouncing chick with its head after touching obstacles
