The tiny characters and animations are great. I really like getting to switch through characters. The game is a little to difficult for me, maybe because I am sleepy. I couldn't figure out how to get past bunny and as turtle I would get stuck. I am definitely coming back to this, seeing the characters is such a good reward and the different mechanics is a strong design!!"},{"author_name":"MintArcade","author_uid":"35966","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 2:26pm","epoch":1460989260,"text":"Very very cool.

The graphics - great. The sounds - great. The concept is exactly on the spot for the theme. The level design was clever. Gameplay was smooth.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>However, it took me stupidly long to realize I could change shapes after I collect the gems, it should be added to the controls in the main menu.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Sometimes it was a bit frustrating dying in stupid ways, but it was very satisfying to beat in the end.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, I don't understand what is the turtle good for.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The coin near the start point behind that small hole was only collectible using rabbit -&gt; fish -&gt; mouse, this one took me a while.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I would love to see this made into a full game with more animal types (like bird) and more levels.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>My time was 1:11.32. I kind of want to speedrun this."},{"author_name":"joekinley","author_uid":"3012","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 6:32pm","epoch":1461004020,"text":"I can't for the life of me get past the first level.

I particularly like the bunny: great pro\/con design.\r<br\/>You probably want to either find a longer music sample or just let this one fade out after a few loops.\r<br\/>I'd also suggest a much louder visual for the spike floors: they're really difficult to read. I definitely died a few times before I realized they were spikes, and even then I'd hit every new one I came across ones because I didn't see them."},{"author_name":"pogo","author_uid":"93256","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 5:27pm","epoch":1461086520,"text":"I really enjoy how differently each animal behaves.

Pretty good stuff Erik.  My only low mark was innovation.  I don't feel it was any more different than any other platformer other than that the theme was applied to it.    Theme and humor are spot on 5 stars.  The blood! The blood!"},{"author_name":"rahulparihar","author_uid":"87964","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 10:47pm","epoch":1461105720,"text":"Nice platformer.

First i thought you didn't calculate well the height of jump and objects, but than i saw the comments and tryied again. Nice, but maybe ther should be a alternative path in case you fall down.
