Starting with no apples, the fox needs to collect apples in order to get more upgrades to ...collect more apples. She also needs to eat some of the apples too. Collect all apples to move to next level.

Created entirely in the Ludum Dare weekend with all the artwork done by my very talented 13 year old twins, and also with programming help from my son and music by my daughter (we opted out of audio since it is "generated" music and not created by a human...she calls it stupid robot music ;) ).

Looked cute, but couldn't get past level 2 because ctrl + W closes the game and i needed to do that to get the apples.

oh wow! I just noticed that too. I wasn't aware that was a windows hot key to close all windows! I'll post an update tonight. I tested with an older version of Windows which is why that may have slipped through. Just tested it on an updated version and, yep, it closes the browser. A work around is to use the arrow keys.

Cute looking game! It looks like the double jump might actually be an infinite jump?

I love the chara, it is so cute ! The graphics are cute too ! I have a little problem with the controls at the beginning, but after it's okay ! Good job

Love the artwork! Good visual feedback on picking up apples. The text seems to mirror when you pick up an apple while running to the left though, but honestly I didn't notice until I'd almost finished the game lol.

Very pretty drawings, but needs improvements on the controls and UI

Thanks, all. Yes, the double jump is a bit OP now. I think I need to nerf it a bit.

I have problem when I was in the store, I can't take a power (I have enough apples)
Overall, the game is very pretty and cool music

I enjoyed this entry! The character is cute and I like the overall painted style. The double jump was a bit finicky, I could jump on branches until i spammed it enough that I flew to the top of the screen. The music was nice and it was nice just going around collecting apples, unfortunately I did not read the reviews first and I also ctrl + w'd myself out of the game haha. It was an enjoyable time though!

I like the artwork a lot but mostly everything else from the controls and movement to the interface feels so finicky. At one point I could jump 5 times in a row with the double jump but then, after that, my jumps could barely reach the apples, and I couldn't even double jump anymore.
