I love father-and-son-project, so cool. Lovely sokoban-like puzzle. The cut scenes are adorable, although the fade in/out is a bit slow. Awesome!

Short but fun, I liked the setting, nothing ground breaking in terms of gameplay but the movement felt good and the obstacles were fun to play around with.

Pretty fun and charming! I have soft spot for fairy tale themed games so this is very cool.

Love the simple graphics and story, game is really cute and the fact that it's a dad-son project makes it even more adorable.

A cute take on a sokoban! I like how you tried to add some frogger elements to the classic, more puzzley gameplay. I enjoyed it, although it sometimes felt like the two design elements were somewhat at odd with each other. I now crave some further exploration of that specific design space. I also enjoyed the progression of the game, introducing each element of the final level separately. Good job!

Interesting combination of Sokoban style puzzle games and frogger (oops I had the exact same impression as the person above me)! Charming visuals that really put me in a good mood. The puzzles were nicely done and I feel like this idea could be expanded a lot! Very nice job.

With great balls come great responsibility. 10/10.

Awesome game! I really liked how the levels invented and combined new mechanics up to the actually very tricky last level. Extra points for doing such cool stuff with your son!

What an adventurous and fun game which pushed our adrenaline levels up! We lost the ball once in level 5, but luckily could try again. Every Flinki would be proud of that frog's persistence!

This is super cute, and a lot of fun - adding the real-time elements to the turn-based sokoban puzzles gave it an interesting twist. Such a nice project to do together as a family. :smile:

What a lovely game. A good combination of theme, gameplay and mood. After playing some of the darker games made for this jam it was a delightful palette cleanser :)

I enjoyed this, light hearted. Pretty much what others have said, reminded of a strategic Frogger game for sure. And I also enjoyed the saying out of no where, "With great balls come great responsibility."

The presentation at the beginning is super charming, I loved it! The game itself is a nice little sokoban like game, and I love sokoban! Had a great time with this one, congrats on making it! :)

This is a neat little puzzle game! I like the mixture of turn-based and real-time elements. The early puzzles are fairly easy but that last one is a real toughie! Would've been good to see a few more levels, but as it is, it doesn't outstay its welcome. You and your son can be proud of yourselves, and I hope he has a long future in gaming ahead of him!
