I actually quite liked your game. At first I thought wow the artstyle is weird but eventually I got used to it. I really can not say why but I really liked the whole game! Good job LOL :)

Really enjoyed this, apparently I died 23 times.. I was having fun exploring your world, wish the timer was just a tad longer but all in all good game.

I liked the final puzzle and the "monkey shit" thing was funny. Nice Easter egg.

This... this is an MS Paint Fever dream after a night of watching Monty Python and Ricky Gervais. Also after not cheating (Possibly lying) on the helichopter puzzle and I was looking at the menus, It went to Balloon burnt and I laughed my ass off at that. Might have been a glitch, but a damn funny one.

It's okay. I didn't like that the random monkeys could sometimes kill your run 5 or 6 times and the hitboxes don't line up with the graphics. Also the textboxes could be better, but overall not bad

Got to the point when i had to do a puzzle, and i kinda hate puzzles, game was great though :D + 5 for shit throwing monkey in the tree.

I was actually laughing so hard while I "Ate monkey shit". Great game!

Some of the graphics don't match the actual colliders so it's difficult to jump to the second level. The helicopter is confusing as hell... and I understand binary & hex.

I died more times than I care to admit. Quirky and fun, with some easter eggs scattered around, nice.

This is a really fun exploration game, I found it fun to wander around and see what kind of stuff I could find. Those platforms under the tree where the monkey is were really hard to navigate and sometimes I would try to jump and end up just falling off which was annoying. I tried many times to get the lighter back to the balloon but kept failing. Might have another go later to see if I can beat it! Also, the helicopter is very confusing and hard to figure out when under a time limit.

Really fun game, i liked the easter eggs.

I've eaten monkey shit way too many times. It's actually quite fun to play and explore. The mood is well stablished, and the graphics and sound match well with the overall theme. Wish the collision detection was a bit more lenient, and the timer felt too restricting at times, but all in all, it's a nice game.

Hahaha, nice game! The controls are quite hard but I managed to escape after 15 deaths... I'm full of ape shit. Thanks for the good time!

Did not expect this. Very nice looking, sounding, humorous adventure game.
I loved it when I finally could read the second text after 5 deaths by monkey shit, then I read it: "don't eat monkey shit". Worth it, lol

It could have a second part, I would gladly play it :smile:

I like the paint-esque art style and the monkey. I also like the challenge with Binary and Hex, was thinking of doing a similar puzzle in mine. Well Done :smile:

Great entry! I had fun playing it. (And I also got mad because I died so many times...) The mood is good and the game fits the theme nicely. Well executed concept. The graphics were ok and the audio was decent.

The camera feelt a bit weird for me though, but it might just be me.

Anyways, it's a nice little adventure game with some humor. Good job!

First of all, you made a game icon, such attention to details (pretty rare in LD)! That's great :)

(for some reason I'm not being able to comment with images so I'll post where I've stopped right next to this comment)

Nice idea and it is very humorous, I wish I had payed more attention to my computer science classes. Let me give your game some criticism:

• I love when games have playing transitions, from platformer's to inside an helicopter where you can see the lava floating is great

• I've missed the theme in your game, I know lava is going up, but that's not really notable imo

• The gameplay and niche is really "programming-focused" I think that could be an intro difficult for those who are not used to it.

In overall, good job! That's nice that you made it far, I wish I could progress more in your game, but for that I'd need to use an external hex to binary tool, which I didn't want.

Do you mind to give feedback to our game as well? (It’s a platformer, I don’t know if you like the genre but it is important for me to have feedback from player that like and dislike it) (:

(It’s on my profile, I’ll not post link to avoid spam)

Loved the graphics. Messages on signs ought to pop up faster than they do, though.
