That epic landing omg. This is hilarious the animations are so good. The start throws you into the deep end a bit - might be nice to start of slow to get the hang of it?
AdamLenglenauthor1 May 2023, 12:11
@peterfiftyfour haha! thank you for the feedback you are right, we wanted the game to be really dynamic that's why we didn't changed the beginning but surely when you start your first games it has to be hard to understand everything.

little disturbing but pretty fun, well done!

Throwing the baby out is really amazing. It laughs me to death. The graphics is first-class, and it matches the music sound effect very well. It is a very happy game. I like it very much
Megrez2 May 2023, 08:30
Outstanding art and is fun as well! Died too many times though, maybe u can put more effort on the difficulty curve and controls(the arrowkeys on most laptops are really frustrating to use) that might make it better!
AdamLenglenauthor2 May 2023, 08:54
@megrez thanks, you can use WASD or ZQSD too if you want!

Love the humor and presentation of this one! As others have mentioned, the challenge starts off quite strong but after a couple attempts I started to get the hang of it.

tres tres cool je me suis regalé un delice miam
YamDaddy2 May 2023, 14:56
Truly the best art i've seen thus far this game jam.
AdamLenglenauthor2 May 2023, 15:00
@eilume thanks for the feedback we made it like that so that when you retry you don't wait for the challenge. but ye true that may be to much for new player

@ouss Merci mmmhhh ! Content que tu te sois régalé

Absolutely sublime animation. I was watching this on a stream and had to try it. The music, art and vibe is amazingly impressive. But- the game is hard. I can't see what is coming up and it feels a bit too punishing. Maybe if it were zoomed out a bit- not sure if that could be done while preserving the pixel art. I will play more to see if I get better. The art is just so so good here it would be a shame to have people bounce off the game because of difficulty.
AdamLenglenauthor2 May 2023, 15:35
@yossarian true I get it, it's really hard for me too haha thank you for playing and liking the game though !

Je détiens le WR à 20081 screen preuve à l'appui. J'aimerais si quelqu'un a fait mieux que moi qu'il m'envoie un screen pour que je run à nouveau le jeu.

J'aime beaucoup la DA et le jeu simple qui rappelle un mélange de flappy bird et de subway surfer. Le bébé est très drôle.

Simply wow! I love the art style, music is great and the polish of the game is impressive, especially for a game jam! The only thing I'm not sure about is candy boost, the game is already fast I cannot react in time after collect the candy XD Anyway, amazing job with the game!

My highest score is 3521. Great game lol.

The animations and music are absolutely on-point. I'd say the speed of the game is fine, but I think the actual control layout could be a little better. Still, this is a fantastic little endless runner. Love the overall attitude and feel of it lol

The animation and pixel art style for this game is magnifiscent! Truly! It's a shame that it's so gosh danged hard (or I'm just so bad at video games) It even has cutscenes! This is such a great entry! I hope it ranks really high, it deserves it!
AdamLenglenauthor2 May 2023, 17:04
@weirdbitgames haha, that's a good idea we should have made a tutorial for the first run a player make

I wasn't able to get very far in the game due to me being horrible at games like these but this was such a fun experience! the music was on point along with the animation and graphics! I also loved how the baby would spiderman pose when it gets launched away, that was a nice little detail that got a chuckle out of me. The only thing I didn't like is when you run into a block you phase through it but if the block is next to another one while you are phasing you still take damage from the blocks basically ending your game the second you get hit once, but other than that this is a really well designed game! Keep up the good work!
AdamLenglenauthor2 May 2023, 18:31
@congeesetador I see what you mean we'll try to maybe find something to fix it if we update it but I think you still need that to end the run of someone that would be to really good at it so maybe an increasing difficulty would be the way, Thank you for playing and for the feedback !!

An absolute masterpiece. I scored 16681 in my final run. not quite the record... not even close, really, but god dang this game is fun! Perfect score all across the board.

I recorded myself playing this to deliver maximum feedback!

ToineF2 May 2023, 20:11
@100th-coin Thank you so much for your outstanding review and your video. I'm glad your loved the goofy cutscene and animations. They were both made by @adamlenglen ;)
I'm delighted you found the game fun too! And 16681 is a really good score!

Super cool game, well polished and graphically pretty, but really difficult
Oliver Pope3 May 2023, 23:02
Fantastic Art, Great Music, Brilliant theme. I think the game starts abit to hard and id like a gentle introduction to the game, giving me a chance to prepare myself. Other than that top marks.
Hoshinu3 May 2023, 23:08
The art and animations are really cute, and the music is a BANGER, but dang, I just can't even make it past 400 points. I think it starts off a bit fast, and doesn't really introduce the dash or anything before tossing you into the deep end. Maybe just a little bit of easing would go a long way in reducing frustration, but otherwise, excellent work!

Amazing music, gameplay and art! Congratulations on quite the great entry! I think it only falters a bit on the Theme side, it feels like the relation is a bit far but otherwise *chef kiss*

I struggled a bit with the controls but the art is outstanding!

Amazing art. Love the menus and intro animation.

I had trouble getting into the swing of the endless runner, and it wasn't clear what would kill me. But it started to scratch the endless runner itch after a few tries. Nice job!
AdamLenglenauthor4 May 2023, 09:05
@protowlf Ok thank you we'll try to work on clarity for futur games! thank you for playing haha!

Brilliant Art! Cool

I found this game to be quite humorous (those animations man...), although getting into the swing of things definitely took a minute, and it was unclear that I could break the white fences.

I have also learned not to get the candy or it would end my run (it goes faster, but since ya know Im not used to the speed, my brain goes "We ain't doing this" and I lose the run)
My best score was 6144, which is nowhere near close to the top, but was my best attempt!
AdamLenglenauthor5 May 2023, 06:34
@saumon thank you :) !

@macjja thank you for the feedback ! yes for the fences we should have explained it somewhere I going to add it to this page. the candies are made for that haha sweets are no good clearly my nightmare too. well played ! way better than me actually I got past 6000 after 2 days.

This game has a very high level of completeness, with a unique pixel art style, amazing animation effects, immersive background music, fitting cutscenes, and a main character wearing open-crotch pants. The game also has a very easy-to-master control system that I really enjoyed. I've already achieved a high score .... 8 !
AdamLenglenauthor5 May 2023, 13:06
@yuriscat 8 !! DAYYUUUUM! thanks for the review !! I'm very happy you enjoyed it :)))
AdamLenglenauthor6 May 2023, 10:30
