Haha very clever!
Excellent! Relaxing and the art was incredible. Simple but powerful. Great job.
Haha great! Really cleanly and cleverly designed. Artwork was really consistent. Only thing that was a problem was the rhino shooting mechanic! Hard to play with a track pad, but that's probably my fault. Good job!
I like the level design and the potion concept, but it's not always easy to understand which platforms you can climb and which ones you can't (based on your size I assume). Maybe an explanation or a couple more "teaching" levels before moving on to the shrinking potions.
Really great visuals! I agree that I often ended up moving more than I wanted. And a score counter would make it feel more polished, but overall a pretty neat game!
It's got a really great feel to it! Love the consistency of the art. Feels unified.
Good effort! The art is a little strange, but I like it a lot.
It looks really good, but you might consider either expanding the top window or moving it somewhere else. Found it really difficult to do anything but look at the mana bars, so I felt like I was missing out on the graphics above. Cool start though!
Clever art and a good quick game! Wish there was just a bit more.
I liked the mood and the really consistent graphics (especially the soul-collection), but it took way too long to destroy each pot. Good job!
Good job! Animations were solid and the overall look was really nice. A couple of nitpicky things: one time I respawned with no chance of jumping at all (the animation was a little off, too) and I didn't understand how to beat the boss so I jumped over him and won the game.
Overall though, it's got a great look and it's a solid start!
Good effort! Maybe a little too easy, it didn't seem like growing and shrinking really changed much for me. However, I did play it on PC and not on mobile.
Nice job! It didn't seem like the gaps in the ropes made me lose (could just be me). But it was an interesting take on the theme!
The concept is pretty good, but the jump mechanic is rather bothersome. Just challenging to get used to the lack of a running jump. Good job though!
Simple, but the difficulty scaling is great!
Good job! Challenging; seems like I either need to attack earlier or the blocks don't disappear quite quick enough--I end up dying to blocks I think I've destroyed. Probably just me not being that good though haha!
Excellent take on the theme! Love all of the references in the background (Breaking Bad, etc.). Simple, but done with power.
Nice! I like that you managed to fit four controls onto two buttons; was a little tricky to move downward sometimes. I like the difficulty scaling as it goes on (addition of monsters, trickier puzzles).
Fun! Gameplay is a little tricky, but I love the art and the concept!
Great game! Love that you got more than two controls on the two buttons and made a pretty complete feeling game. Congratulations on the intuitive level design (mostly) where you showed where each control went as you taught the player.
Hahaha I laughed so hard playing this game. Brings back great memories of Warioware Twisted for GBA. Loved seeing screenshots of this before it was done and it didn't disappoint. Congrats.
Haha really cute simple game. Love the attention to detail in the title graphic.
Funny take on the two button theme. Lack of a menu and some of those kinds of details made it feel less complete, but I laughed when I made the bush jump.
Thanks! Yes. If I knew more I would have the layout changes preserve acceleration and position or at least put a fade between scenes. Maybe in the morning I'll tweak it some.
Thanks guys! Yeah, I burned through it really quickly (something like 6 hours) because I'm getting married this upcoming weekend and knew I wouldn't have much more time haha! Maybe I'll add some more screens post-jam.
Maybe it's because of the Tequila, but the cactus was really hard to avoid haha! Hard to know where you're shooting.
Cool! I'll have to bust out my mouse instead of the touchpad; only got like 30.
