EDIT: Tweaking the kill hitboxes might also be nice, as some of them currently feel a bit large.
I found sometimes I ended up hitting the lava/acid when it looked like I was far enough away.
Id love to replay it with more levels
The description of the planets in the upper right corner is very clever. The way it mixes the lore of the game with informational content is really great.
Where the game falters, though, is in the hitboxes. Most times when I die, it is because of hitting an object which the player was not even touching. This was first apparent with the aliens. The hitbox should be constrained to the player's sprite and the enemy's sprite, not the box around them.
With that simple fix, the game would be vastly improved. Sound would also add a lot, even some bfxr sounds created in a few minutes.
Good work, especially for a first jam!
The hitboxes could be a bit more permissive but it wasn't game breaker for me
It's one of those little game I like to play when I have 10 minutes to kill, great work!
The only problem I had were the collision boxes. I died many times and that was a bit frustrating.
But all in all a good game!
My biggest frustration came from the hitboxes. It seemed it was too sensitive, in terms of being able to clip hazardous ground was very frustrating, as I couldn't tell what killed me on the last planet. I actually didn't manage to beat it. Other than that, I thought it was a sweet little game.
It took me a sec to understand what going on. But It's a nice Concept.
Overall a nice Jam entry.
Also, ceck out my game, I need a few more ratings: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/38/timmy-and-the-snowflake
