This is a very nice game. The player controls are difficult making it hard to make progress. I really enjoyed this game though. Good Job!
Pretty good.
I think one thing that isn't necessary, but I would've liked, is a bouncy-jump. As in, keep jumping if I hold up. Not too huge a deal though.
I think it would've also been cool if you had a floaty-er jump while under water to sort of help you jump higher and get out.
Pretty nice game nonetheless!
Simple and sweet! Having the up key as your jump button is a bit awkward on the keyboard, but otherwise, nice work.
I am stressed now - reminds me of crazy climber, so, happy.
Fun game. Fit the theme very well, and is very hard too. I love the pixel art and the little 8-bit noise you get when you jump. Overall a great game!
Really god for a first game. Could do with more sound though, a splash when you go under and an underwater sound.
Super hard, super fun. Wish you I could start the game with a key press instead of having to grab the mouse...
Nice job! It's simple but challenging, and quite fun overall. I liked the art too. :)
Pretty challenging! Nice level design too. You should really consider adding highscores to make it more addictive.
Simple timed jumping game - but the narrative of escaping a flood makes it super compelling!
Cool idea. The controls are a bit weird at first (as Dominator said, it would make it a bit easier if the character would continuously jump as long as the Up key is pressed). The platforms could do with a bit of colour to help differentiate them from the background too. Pretty cool for a first game ever anyway, congrats! :)
You need to give the player a moment to realise what's happening. Start them a bit higher up on the screen so that they can see that the water is rising without having to evade it straight away.
Neat game. The controls felt a little loose but the gameplay is clean and easy to get into.
Pretty challenging as well.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. 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.
the controls were really good, the sound was funny. I liked it. Looking forward to your next games.
