Time for Lunch by zep

[raw]
made by zep for Ludum Dare 53 (COMPO)

Here's an orange and some sandwiches for The Wizard. Use the DPAD (or cursors) to control the owl, and watch out for castle creatures. Also, take care of the basket ~~ if it hits a wall too hard, it might smash. Good luck!!

Very nice, very polished! The rope mechanics are well tweaked, not too easy, not too hard. Kudos!

Fun game! The controls feel tight and there are many ways of approaching obstacles. Art style and sfx are very cute!

Love to see pico8 submissions.

Such a unique spin on platforming having to protect the basket! Just the right amount of difficulty and a cutely animated owl!

@thomaspixelart only 14 restarts??!! I had like 50 haha.

I love how complete this game feels. It tells a story, explores the mechanic, and there's no bugs or glaring problems.

Really awesome game. The basket on a rope is a really great mechanic and leads to some great gameplay and thinking on the fly (no pun intended). The grapics and everything is awesome. Really impressive to get this all done in 48 hours (also I love Pico 8)

Gaah! I had to restart 56 times before the wizard got his lunch!
Oh well, nice delivery game nonetheless.

I managed to clear it! It was extremely satisfying. The controls are nimble and feel really good. Even the effects when I get hit are enjoyable, making me want to play over and over again. The pixel art style and sound are also very attractive.

What a great little game! I love the little owl and basket! A couple of the screens (the last two in particular with the monsters that would chase you) were really tense. I would play more of this! Nice work :)

What a delightful little game! I love the pixel graphics. I haven't seen anything like the rope mechanic before, so that was really fun! It was a little bit too difficult for me, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it.
