this is fantastic, great job!!

Beautiful game. The controls feel very elasticy - but to be honest that kind of adds to the experience, keeping you on edge at all times.

Really beautiful graphics! Smooth controls and animation too. Great entry!

The graphics are beautiful!
The controls are a little sluggish but I got used to them quickly and then it felt natural and fun.
It was annoying to have to start all over when you were caught though, the game punishes you for being curious and exploring. Some indication of what is dangerous would help, or starting from the beginning of the screen instead of from the beginning.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I wanted it to feel quite soft in how you moved the character across the screen, but i agree that things could be tightened up a bit (especially what happens when he gets too close to the cursor). I also had a more gestural control scheme in mind but i didn't have time to try it out. Maybe next time!

Totally agree on the restarting in the same room. Restarting at the beginning was a product of time more than anything. I was tempted at one point to remove all dying from the game, but kept it in to maintain the sense of challenge. sorry about that.

Great! Finish it and release it for mobile touch-devices. I WILL buy it.

Fun game. I really like the visual style too. Were their various air currents? It felt like there were and that was kind of tricky but cool. I tried collecting a lot of the orange things the first few times but died and became frustrated. I ended up just speed-flying out and escaping but it still rated me an 'F' haha.

Great artwork.

really really charming experience. I struggled with the controls a little, but overall I loved it particularly the character design

Glorious and original art style! I kept dying for no obvious reason - presumably I crashed, but other times I got away with worse bumps. Delightfully surprising new mechanics every few rooms. Love it!

Nice graphics and atmosphere, neat game!

Thanks for the latest feedback guys! Yep there are air currents in some rooms, indicated by the flowing particles. At the moment your rank is determined by the amount you collect before leaving, not the time you take. That would probably make sense with a context to it. As for what kills you, its if you bump the very top of your head on the spinning leafs, bumping any other part of your body is fine. A health bar or (reducing leafs with each hit) might have been a better idea than one hit kill.

super beautiful. I bet you could make this into a winning iphone game without too much work. It might be cool to make it a endless arcade style thing, rather than a bunch of level.

Very pretty! Would love to see some more squishy walls (loco roco style). Slightly static as it is now. As previous user said, go iPhone!

Simply wonderful.

I keep waiting to hear "la la la la" in children voices, very very nice looks! :)

Nice Game!

I especially like the coloful lo-fi approach and the intuitive one-click control.

It seems and looks nice, but what confused me was that I failed almost randomly, some kind of feedback if you're doing the right thing would be nice. I got to escape in the end after getting stuck in one one place for several tries (one of that "random" death in the room with two air currents) - it's too short, but if you made longer levels, add some sound, it would charming little game.

cute, very enjoyable game. feels very polished, and although it took some getting used to the controls, it all came together. great work!

Haha great! It totally has that nintendo feel without coming off as trying too hard/immature. It instantly reminded me of loco roco - very colourful, friendly and just fun to explore and play.

My only real critique was that the game rules were never explained - I still don't know what made me fall to the ground and die every once in a while. Beyond that excellent art, the transitions could've been tightened a bit (the main character doesn't animate during scene changes and sometimes you can see seems in the levels but that's just me being nitpicky because there's nothing else really for me to critique). This game desperately needs some music, it would round it off really well, good job!

Looks great. Simple gameplay and non-existent learning curve. Sound would add a lot more personality to the art style.

Also, I loved finding the controls by myself. Looked around the first area, clicked and saw the seed's leaves move, then I kept the mouse button pressed and voilá, it jumps out of the ground.

Very nice!

81/82 What did I miss?

Everything looks polished. Sound would make this something nearly perfect. There should be some indication when hitting a wall is fatal. Other than that, awesome.

Thanks for all the feedback, i'll be sure to include as much as I can in a future version. I've done a test on iPhone and it works great except for "big thumbs syndrome", so i'll be changing the controls around for that but keep the basic mechanics in tact, along with new rooms, better visuals :)

Like has been mentioned, sound will make this game come alive. I'm gutted i didn't have time make any before the compo deadline, but i'm experimenting with different audio styles now, will keep you updated.

As for 81 / 82, i've found its pretty easy to not fly on the right hand of the hill in the last room, try there.

Thanks again
