Impressive to start a card game on a game jam! Good work!
Cool to see text-adventures in a jam! Good work
Very pretty!
So polished! Wish that I could play the multiplayer with someone. Also agree that it might be good to have different controls for singleplayer/multiplayer.
Good job! And great work creating so polished art in such little time!
Cool idea and great execution! Really impressive soundtrack as well!
I like it, I had a bit of a hard time doing backflips, maybe you could add some time where you don't get chased to get used to the controls?
I love the style and the game fit the theme very well!
Nice game! Great that you could practice before starting, I died on the starting screen but then I knew how to play! Now add some particles and some knockback for impact and you are done! :)
Great work, cool to see a 3D on such a short jam as this!
I just write too slow for this to be playable, but that is on me :D Good work!
Great pixel-art! Record is 100 m, I was suprised when enemies showed up!
Great work! I felt like a crazy horse to the theme "unstable" was definitely used :D I would maybe like to see keyboard controls, I wasted a lot of time just pointing were to go and then my time was out, but that is just a small thing!
Lovely little idle game! I especially like the dialog, not easy to write that in a short amount of time! Good work!
Definitely my favorite game that I have played this jam! A lot of polish, and the game uses the theme very well to create a chaotic feeling! Great work!
@RatoGodoy Thanks! Thought I found all the small issues... I tried to patch some of them in a post jam update as well as adding a reset button!
@dobryn Thanks, I suspected this would be a tad difficult game, I made some section more fair in a post jam update, but it will still be challenging!
@cirno Thanks! I have already tweaked it a bit (not released though), but yeah this is a difficult game, glad you liked it anyways.
@scottgoldsmith Thank you, I tried to make the game as polished as I could so it is nice that you appreciate it!
@zarkonnen Yeah, not perfect. In pico8 you cannot pick keys, but it also works with a controller
@exmxpx Got inspired by "Pettson och Findus" a great swedish children book, so nice that you like it! :)
@Wuppos Cool with so much feedback! Its a diffucult game, I will make a post jam update to make it a bit more fair, but overall I think it will stay tricky :D
With pico-8 I use visual studio code for doing the actual coding, but yeah you need to scope right at the beginning, and try to make everything in smaller functions. Overall a pico8 is great for jams, you get everything in one place!
@slimmerburger Thanks, it was fun to make a weird platformer so to say! With the theme "Unstable", it came apparent early on to make a somewhat difficult game!
@bloodbane Yeah, it is might not be the best to send cats into space with those spaceships :D
@rogual Thank you, yeah as everyone here say it is a bit difficult, but as you say I try to give as much control as possible to the user! And the post jam update will update some of the layout and tweak the movement a bit to make it even more fair!
@duck-reaction Aww thank you! The game is actually playable on your phone, pico8 automatically adds mobile controls to the web build! (But it is even more hard to play on the phone)
@martin-magni Thanks, that is a good description :D If you hit the top of the ship on the ground or the floor you will get destroyed. Yeah, even if I played the game a lot of times, I usually at least dies one time on a run so checkpoint is needed!
@cagibi Thanks, I am happy that you like the challenge!
@jonah-srg Thank you! Yeah, that is also a good comparison, take Lunar Lander and make it a platformer!

Thank you all for your feedback and nice comments! I can't keep up answering every comments anymore, but I read all and I hope to fix some of the issues you are having in a post-jam update!
Thanks again for playing <3
@hanna404 Yeah, some bugs exist, as you can see multiple people have gotten similar problem as you! Hope you still had fun, the game will be patched after the jam was over to fix some of them!
