Like your take on the theme, super random but funny, the sound fx are charming as well :laughing: I was zooming down the hill! Only feedback, I had some sort of shutter or performance hit every now and then, and maybe there could be some sort of negative thing to avoid on the hill. Nice entry :thumbsup:

Simple and fun! Really cute. Building up speed to hit the arcs for the beans felt good.

Fun little game. Nice and short so I was able to play it to the end. Good luck in the competetion!

Kinda like Alto's Odyssey but with snails, fun! I appreciate the Diskworld reference, I think we can all relate to the elephant when he felt trapped lol

Fun little snail! Your game uncovers the theme perfectly. Btw, loved the ending xD

This was lovely :) The art, sound, and gameplay are so simple, but I was enchanted by how cute everything was and how it all fit together perfectly.

Very fun game, I like the story and the cutscenes. The snail's acceleration was really fun to play with.
Good job!

it's really cool, it plays well, the snail rules

Loved playing this game! Racking up speed feels great. Sometimes there's not much you can do but lose speed since you don't have too much control over landings -- some air control, even just a double jump, might make it more satisfying to play. That's also a major improvement since, without air control, it is hard to really hit any pickups and I just relied on randomness to complete the game. Solid and fun implementation, and a cool bit of story too.

I really hate it when someone just stops holding up the world, so rude! The gameplay made me laugh cause its random and fun to just jump around. But the sound effects are hilarious haha, nice job on adding those.

The snail is adorable, and I love your title screen!! Overall, nice job, its really cute :3
