That was a fun little game to pass the time.

wow, that's great.

a really nice game both in pixel art, setting, music and game design. A solid result

Someone's played cave story lol, game was straight forward, Nice appeal with graphics, but I wished the coins did something, say a shot upgrade when you reach 30 or somethin if u didnt want to add a shop. Another was the secrets- they were also nice, but not really rewarding since most the time they were hearts I didnt need or coins, which did nothing. Great work though- Just nit picks from my end

The game is cute and cool, but only the graphics make it stand out. Other than that, it's just a regular Mario-type platformer.

nice

beautiful game

The last world with the drills are tricky but the game overall was so cute and chill. Really liked the game!

A delightful adventure with cute graphics, solid platforming, and fun environments/enemies! I'd happily buy an expanded version of this on a console.

I spent a lot of my childhood growing up with an SNES and a SEGA Genesis. Even to this day, I still have older cartridge based consoles on standby when I want to revisit those long gone days. And I have to say, this game somehow made deeply wistfull and nostalgic in a way I cannot explain. I had this heartwarming feeling of playing a game from decades ago. When I was a young child, and I was just so enthralled with the digital worlds I was interacting with. I only have one minor critique, and that's the jumping seems somewhat off. It feels unusually heavy, and hard to time. But other than that, I enjoyed every second of this tiny adventure from start to finish. It's a charming, and nostalgic adventure that warmed my heart.

very cute!

This was a pretty awesome game. I would like to see a sequel to it. It would also be great if it was released on steam. This would be the perfect game for the steam deck.

That was very cute! Good work! <3

Aww, this was such a charming little game, thank you! 

Any chance of there being a downloadable version (I just like to be able to keep games I liked on my hard drive aha)

(+2)

Yeah, i plan to make a downloadable file sometime. Though it'd be after i patch a few odds and ends.

how do i start the game it just gets stuck at the press start to play menu

(+1)

The game isn't compatible with mobile, but on PC you just gotta press ENTER or the start/menu button on a gamepad.

i am on pc and have pressed enter still did not work

This game is so cute! I love the chilly little winter bees!!! The art and the music are delightful.

Amazing graphics and music, extremely polished, and just an overall joy to experience. Very satisfying to reach new levels. Could have kept playing for hours! Thanks!

(+1)

this is a really good game and i hope ur future games will turn out even better :D

Thank so much! And i hope so too

I liked the retro art style and the music, but the overall game was too generic for my liking. Other then the enemies, there weren't really any unique mechanics. Also, on World 3, there are multiple parts where if you go all the way to the side, you fall off the platform and go out of the camera view.

(+1)

The boundless walls in World 3 were intentional. Most of that level consists of floating platforms, so if you're not careful enough you might fall off.
