omg, this game is awesome! I love the art and color scheme! Lots of details all around the village. I see there's a cameo of a little known soap bar in the game too ;)
Fantastic, really enjoyed it. The jump for the underground feather was a bit too precise given the ease of the rest of the game. Loved the visuals and smooth platforming.
Very pretty. Maybe I wish there was a bit more to it than collecting stuff scattered around, but hey, this is nonviolent and humble and cute so that's okay!
Thanks everybody! And Fabien, we went for the 'collection' gameplay because we believed it would be minimalistic. :)
It's very very good I sincerely hope that you'll make more of this !
Very well done game! Very solid overall, the controls were good, the music, sounds were nice, the world, characters were funny and interesting.
The only thing I didn't like were couple of very precise jumps needed to get some feathers like the one underground. but other than that, this game was awesome!
I really liked the mood in this one. It felt like playing a jolly level in an early Spyro game.
Excellent game! I love it! It's fun, amazing graphics, lovely music and the mood is great. 5/5 :D I read all the dialogs, I found some weird bugs(passed through walls) and talked to Alfred the dog :)

Thanks man! Means a lot to us. Good luck with your game, it's great!
I must say, this is probably one of my favorite entries yet! The graphics and sound have a quirky feel to them, and the stage is well designed for the most part. The only real problem I see is that it doesn't fit the theme well...
Absolutely fantastic! From the first seconds onwards, I had a smirk on my face and I really wanted to explore around. This is a game I will definitely come back to!
This is so charming! You did an amazing job at the graphics. Still, even though it was fun to go around the town the fetching quests never appealed to me.
lol "We've been raising potatoes in this plot for years!"
Really nice little game, graphics/music/mechanics are all really nice. I like the little interactions you have with the inhabitants!
Aww, that's adorable. I love the random people saying things.
BIRDS! :D
Not particularly 'minimalism' though... But then again, this is a game jam and so everything is going to be fairly minimal - it's not your fault that the theme wasn't much to work with!
Wow, absolutely amazing, I love it. My favourite game so far on this edition. You did a great job! I just wish it was longer.
Fun game, although I'm not sure how it fits the theme. The controls could need some work, the jump isn't very precise. The flying part feels great though.
For anyone wondering about the theme, we went for a minimalistic story, characters and design. Sorry we couldn't do it right :P
wow! amazing game. and it fits the theme i think with it's gameboy graphics and sound quite well!
Absolutely adorkable, I love the atmosphere this entry has, and the dialogue is quite humorous. The song is ridiculously catchy (I don't even care if it's fakebit, that's an awesome composition asdlkgjdflkgh)
The theme definitely worked for simplicity, and I loved the direction you went with it. Amazing job with this Jam entry, this is getting a high score from me. Hope you consider polishing it up post-compo!
Really great graphical style and atmosphere. The platformer physics were fun too. I only managed to find 9 feathers though...
The only problem with this game is that there isn't more of it. Love the NPC banter. :3
Very pretty and funny, i like it the sounds the graphics, the gameplay GOOD JOB!
OooOooOoohh this game just feels so good!
I whish I had it on my gameboy as a kid
It's just a simple platformer but...I don't know...it just works!
I can't find the last feather though...I guess I'll never fly :(
I'm impressed :) The game looks gorgeous, is very simple yet satisfying to control, and put me in a good mood as it's so super-fluffy and colorful :) It's not super innovative and the King should be more accessible to prevent any pointless roaming, but that's nitpicking.
I wasn't too much of a fan of the graphics tbh, that was what lost me. The gameplay was pretty decent!
What a cute game ! I like every aspect ! The only criticism I can make is that the game is too short.. I want more :)
Little birdies and bench on a cloud were impressive little details. Overall, nicely polished entry that is enjoyable and has great atmosphere. Thumbs up!
Just amazing. I don't know where to start. Graphics and music are excelent but the best thing is the feeling of clear joy and fun while you play this game. Great job!
Well... really nice and cute game...and welle polished too...but not in the theme.
Really nice little classic platformer! Somehow it reminds me "Mickey's Safari in Letterland" from NES. Really good job! Not really fits the theme IMO, but it doesn't make this awsome game any worse :)

You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Liked it, fun little game, wish I had more time to play right now :/
