Lol I had a good time with this. At first I was wondering if it was gonna be fish all the way down then I got to the Cthulhu spawn and I had a good laugh. I can only imagine what the full experience of this would have been like. Also I absolutely love hearing the handmade sound effects like the helicopter blades spinning being what sounded to my ears like a trilled B sound (trills in this case not referring to music but to the phonetic definition like rolling R's). Also love your floating islands leaflet.

Interesting take on the theme, good job.

Very nice game. It really is on the shorter side, but it still gives you a decent experience.

Would've been nice to hve a tad more agency on the way up, but was still entertaining.

Sounds are really high-tier. :smile:

The dancing in the helicopter was the absolute best part. I wanted to see more dancing or character postures of that caliber :)

The spacebar interactions were nice, but didn't need to last for so long -- 2 or 3 seconds is plenty. 15 seconds of spacebar mashing is not particularly fun.

Ahaha this was a good experience. The sound was top notch and I liked the bits of 'fun' you threw in there, (i.e. dancing in the helicopter when told the controls)
Like the person above said, the spacebar mash was a bit painfully long, but overall I enjoyed my time.

I liked this a lot! At the end of the day, the gameplay was pretty limited, but the ambiance and mood were great. I really liked all the cut scenes; they do a good job of establishing the 'plot' of the game which few LD entries ever accomplish. It makes me want to see more of this game! Great job

Nicely done! As short as it was, I really had fun. Very cleverly conceived. :clap:

Ha. I really enjoyed your artwork and animations. While short, the game had a very succinct story from beginning to end. Well done!

Great intro, great transition, and impressive cinematic effects. The button mashing was a great touch.

I'm really curious about the half of the game you said you cut. Maybe we get to play it in an update?

I hope we get to see more! :smile:

I really loved the hand drawn graphical style and the sound effects were amazing. The ending cinematic was top tier. The gameplay was a bit lacking as you already know but it was still a great entry.

I like the beginning of the game very much. It is very cute and vivid, but at the end it puzzles me. It feels a little regretful to stop abruptly.

Great humor and presentation - very short, but you can see that there is a lot of effort in it.
Visual style is likeable and the sound great.
Very good game, I think you got the best rating of all games I tested so far!

Nice, I liked the style and the simple animations, +1 for the dance at the start

I was thinking "Oh man, I'm in for a wild ride" - and then it ended. :(
Fun little thing, and what is there is obviously well made. It's a shame you didn't have time to do everything you had planned. Nevertheless, good job!

Yo! Somehow I missed all but the ending card and the audio of your game during Gorethumb's stream due to life task multitasking >_< I'm really happy I got to experience this for the first time first hand though, I think seeing it on stream would have tainted my experience a little. It's very cinematic and funny. I chuckled as I was mashing the spacebar harder and harder, you warmed me up for a good laugh at the end.

Honestly, even though you didn't make a long experience, what you had felt very complete, which I personally find more important. You covered the game pretty nicely with graphics and sound, and the fact you taught mashing the spacebar at the beginning made for pulling the treasure at the end to be a seamless experience.

The main negative for me was some weird occasional clicking in the audio, and I guess just some improvements would be in polishing the graphics a little. I think MS Paint-like graphics are fine for the actual gameplay graphics, but not as flattering for me when it comes to text. Of course, there could have been a lot more gameplay in the middle of the game as well, but at the same time, if that gameplay wasn't good, then it may have detracted from the otherwise positive experience, so I don't mind that it was short.

In conclusion, pretty solid little experience with a good dash of humour. Short but fun, and I liked being involved in the humour by needing the mash the spacebar.

P.S. I noticed you joined LD 23? I actually participated in that one as well! (Coincidentally with the only other precision platformer I've released.) Cool to see another old-timer still going at it. :> Anyway, this wall of text is getting out of hand. Thanks for checking out my game and making a cool game yourself!

ok so the screenshot are very misleading because the animation is great in this. very fluid, the music creates just the right feeling and man the end... not going to spoil it so just give it a try

Very nice sound effects, I got scray several times, funny game, congrats =)
