It's heavier because of the svn files and all the assets. I recommend to check the SVN out.

Coin placement is a bit strange and lives are probably a bit too generous considering the easy difficulty. Looks nice though and was pretty fun.

Oh! thank you very much for playing. Yes, the algorithm was done very quickcly because of the time. I think I'm gonna fix that (not for the contest but to get a better experience).

Liked the style of the graphics. Game feels a bit slow and it's a bit too easy.

I think should made it harder, at the beginning I thought if it would be very hard people wouldn't like to play it but at the end maybe it was too easy. Thank you for playing and commenting :), I'll try to make a more interesting level.

I thought the difficulty was just right. I loved the look and feel of the game - just wish there was more to it. (PS: Thanks for including the light version link!)

Hey!, thank you for playing, I'm glad you like the graphics :), I'll try to do something better with levels next time, I tried to aim something very simple to achieve the goal, was not so good or innovative but kinda worked. About the light version, I know it's a pain in the ass if you have to download the game and install it, at least tried to make the process a little bit easier :).

I really dig that handmade style. Thought not particularly original, it definitely fitted your game. Cut emusic and sound effects and everything was just nice. Movement felt a bit heavy and difficult at times and your walrus looks a lot like Slowpoke ;)

Fun!

The truth is, this walrus is a Slowpoke's cousin, you know ;). No, obviously I based my design on Slowpoke, just drawn it again and tried to change some features, I'm still learning how to draw and animate, it's quite hard I have to say, but... I'll try harder. Thank you so much for your post, the video and for playing my game, I'm very glad :).

Great sound and graphics but tricky and imprecise controls. I couldn't even get past the first platform jumoing part.
