Nice little game :) Go Pengu!

Developer

Thanks so much :)

Submitted

a simple but effective platformer

Developer

Thanks :)

A cute little platformer! I really liked the background, well done!

Developer

Thank you very much :)

Nice game ! The base idea is good and I would have loved to see different puzzles with this. Maybe with multiple buttons modifying the movement of the same platform to make it move differently depending on the buttons. But I know it's time consumming to add this kind of content in a game jam. Keep up the good work !

Developer

Thanks so much for the nice commend and feedback. We'll propably keep working on the game afer the jam so well consider the suggestions. :)

Cute little game.
:)

Going for simpler levels was probably a good idea in a game jam.
It stops people getting stuck on, like level 1, and then giving up without seeing more.
However, if you work on this more after the jam, then I highly recommend putting some harder levels in there.
It is currently way too easy for a non-jam puzzle game.

Developer

Thanks very much for the comment yes we will propably rework the levels and a lot of stuff if we will continue working on the game ( we propabbly will continue) :)

really cool platformer! love the penguin its so cutee

Developer

Thanks so much :)

Nice game! That fan is crazy.

Developer

Thanks. Yeah i kind of cranked it up a bit to mch but i was making the game 14h a day and i was a bit out touch xd. But it makes for a coll sskill check i guess :)

With a bit more polish, this could be a fun puzzle platformer. I think one thing I would change is to show visually what puzzle elements have changed upon pressing a button down. The penguin is very cute though! =)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. After the jam we'll propably keep working on the game so we'll implement this bc a lot of people have pointed this out. :)

Lovely little penguin! ^^ I enjoyed the game, you could work on movement feeling and give some more clues what button I just pressed did, because it sometimes took a while to notice :D Interesting take on the theme, not noticable at first, but smart when you think about it. Feel free to check our lovely little frog too ^^

What a cute game and I love the level designs. Great job!

Developer

Thanks :)

I like the cute penguin and good level design. I loved the background art. Feedback: (unless I missed it) elements affected by the buttons could light up or change color to cue the player as to what they did. Great job!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback and idea! We are probably going to continue working on this after the jam, so your idea may be implemented!

Submitted

Fun puzzles, beautiful background art, and adorable penguin. :)

Feel free to check out my game, The Orbital Cascade https://sixthgear.itch.io/orbital-cascade

Thanks for your review and comment

Submitted

The cave background art is lovely. Excluding the ice platform, the puzzle elements could benefit from a makeover to support the cave-in-Antartica theme

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! We most likely will continue working on the project after the jam, so we might do a texture overhaul!

Submitted

Fun game, came for the little penguin :). A smidge of parallax on that amazing background would have worked wonders! Also I think there were a few missed opportunities with the disappearing platforms mechanic from the tutorial, it was great!

Developer

Thanks for the feed back. Can you give an exampleo of what could we have done in the tutorial

Submitted

Oh, I meant it would have been nice to have some more levels with the disappearing platforms, from what I remember they were only in the tutorial. They were cool :). An example level would be using a mix of spikes/fans and disappearing walls from the later levels, like timing both the fans and the platforms while dodging the spikes.

Fun platformer, simple and effective. Levels are very well design, they feel fun to play and are challenging enough for a game jam. Could easily be expanded with new mechanics in the future.

Developer

Thanks very much for your feed back maybe we will continue the work on the game after the jam :)

Submitted

Cute little puzzle game, managed to complete it and it was nice :)

Developer

Thanks for playing and the feed back :)
