I saved the ducks!
Cute Graphic! Love the Toss control. Some sound effects for toss and duck waddling would be much more fun!
Love the sprites and concept, wish there was more levels. Has a lot of promise.
Fun game and well executed concept! The game is short but nicely showcases the gameplay loop. The ducks are quite and well drawn and I love how the pond / terrain looks. I wish there was a level with trucks going over the road! Would make it more difficult. Great job and congrats on your jam entry!
Those drains are lethal. Claimed 4 ducklings in the blink of an eye.
I gasped when my ducklings fell ! Very cute game, nice concept
Nice game! The mechanics is straightforward, save the ducks and avoid the obstacles, this has a lot of potential, keep it up!
@kattraii the duck community appreciates your service :duck: :raised_hands: - hope you enjoyed the game!
CUte, I laughed when the ducklings fell into the sewers
@leeway yea the toss is fun and there are a lot of cool ideas for how the toss could be used if I had more time to implement. I wanted to add some puzzle idea where you had to toss the ducklings to unlock areas of the map. I agree, little quacks would have made this experience feel much more rich. Thanks for playing, I hope you enjoyed :pray: :duck:
What the heck, I toss my ducklings around so I success! This is classic example how modern education teach us...
Funny game and loved it! I just don't know how many levels for this
it was really fun! but i wish there was more levels. i also think sounds would help the game a lot. but the concept and art is great. good job!
@snesgaard I'm a dev not an artist so thank you for your kind words on the dev art! I only had a few hours to work on the game but I'd love to continue working on this and adding more levels.
@winter2277 Cars was the next thing I wanted to work on. I also thought of gusts of air or enemies to add extra depth to the game. Thanks for playing and sharing your thoughts :duck: :handshake:
Very interesting idea, also fun controls. It's a pity that this game only has one level, I would really like to see this game with more levels, more variety of obstacles and of course more tools to move the ducks
The pixel art is super cute - I loved the adorable ducks! Guiding them to the pond was really fun and relaxing. The whole vibe is so chill, it's perfect for unwinding. You've got something special here with lots of potential.
Cool idea! I would have loved some more levels - but it sounds like you ran out of time to make them, which is a shame. Overall a good idea that could definitely be expanded on with more time!
Love ducks, so this is cute as hell. Not sure the level summary was working correctly as after losing some ducks to a drain (oops) the overlay didn't seem to show the correct numbers saved etc. Other than that, this would be a great puzzle game!
@rhyst Not the whole family! Hopefully you were able to save them on the second run through. Thanks for playing :duck:
@lou-tremolieres who would have thought you could connect with ducklings so quickly! Hope you enjoyed :v: :duck:
@ironhandmd Thanks for leaving a comment. Any ideas come to mind for other obstacles or challenges?
@di11u the ducklings need to be saved! not thrown into the sewer! :laughing: thanks for playing :duck:
@hakimallazi :warning: ducks should not be thrown in the real world :warning: :laughing: hope you enjoyed tossing them around :duck: :baseball:
@pijinguy I agree - music and sound effects are a must add
@tentacledream oo I didn't even think of adding tools to move the ducks around - did you have any ideas while playing? :tools: :duck:
@jscommander glad to hear the game was relaxing to play. hope you enjoyed patrolling these tiny creatures to safety :police_car: :duck:
@zappablamma I know the lack of levels is such a bummer. I only had a few hours to work on the game and wanted to get the core loop + tutorial in place. Thanks for playing!
@rkhadder Of course, starting from treadmills, standing on which the ducks will fly far, ending with catapults and portals from the game Portal dot I think such an absurdly Funny game will have enough space for absolutely any crazy ideas that can come to your mind!
Очень милая, но мало
@tentacledream these are some great ideas! I also had the idea of powerups that made you look like one of those themed rubber ducks you find at an arcade.

@adelinaartist17 Спасибо за игру!
this was a very cute game! I love the magnetic effect when you collect ducks and take them with you ^^ art is also very cute
Cute ducks! I'd love more reasons to throw them :)
very nice mechanic, love the art also!!
@little-crow-heart thanks for playing! ducklings can't help waddle behind bigger ducks :duck:
@checkyourgages any ideas to throw ducks? :duck: :baseball:
@aghoulprince the ducks are safer because of you. thanks for playing :handshake: :duck:
I feel like with just a little bit more time this could've gotten up to 5 or 10 levels, all of the base gameplay is there. Fun game, though one of my saved ducks wasn't counted because he was too slow. The road lines tell me this doesn't take place in the US, but I don't play enough geoguessr to know which country it is.
@milkwine yea I was really against the clock on this one otherwise would have added a few more levels + new mechanics. I had an idea for a wizard duckDuckWizard.png
Took me a while to realise that the ducks would stay with me if I kept them close. I like being able to throw them over obstacles... this could be fun with a bit more work on it.
Lots of duck games of late... I like ducks.
Loved it! Wish there were more levels but I think the idea and gameplay were really solid. I think the ducklings that stop following you when you're juuuussssttt barreeelllly too far away is perfectly infuriating to make for an excellent game :)
love cute wittle ducks :)))
Pretty impressive for only a few hours of work! Like many of these other comments, I would also like to see a few more levels.
I'm impressed you put it together in a matter of few hours. It's nice and snappy, and it looks so cute!
Very cute game
my anxiety when they were on the road! I hoped there will be no car. Good entry. It's a shame that it is not longer.
nice cute little game !
Nicely done! And even though as you mentioned yourself it's very short, I did get some cute feelings from collecting and leading the ducklings around, even played through it a couple of times to experience the vibe for longer :duck:
Awww this was such a cute, fun little game! I love the little swirling animation when tossing the duckies xD
@garys @adam-konig @katelyn-trout @wind1e @erasemenot @righteousz @skel3ton @arcadeeleven @detectivelosos @krisss-gonko Thanks so much for taking the time to play and review the game. I deeply appreciate it! :duck: :raised_hands:
I pushed all of my babies into the grate the first time. i thought they would pop out on the other side
they didn't 😭😂
A super charming, adorable and easy to follow game! I loved the style and I was so satisfied when I did save all my little guys!!
Ooh mario pipe mechanic could be a fun - :sparkles: the duck slide :sparkles: - thanks for playing @briibot
Cut game with cut graphics, maybe a little short (but it's normal for a jam ^^), great job !
I saved the ducklings :) Cute idea, I like it. Nice little game :)
Tossing those little ducklings around is quite fun! Well done, looking forward to more levels :)
More levels and hazards for the ducks to avoid and this would make a great little game! Good job!
This is a really concise and enjoyable gameplay experience! I lost level 2 the first time too! I'd love to see this expanded upon actually. I was super scared a car was going to drive along and squish my duckies too!
