Really fun and addictive game! I love the juice that you added here and the idea of an alien jumping into a pool is just so endearing! The mechanic is simple but its so juicy and motivated me to keep going. The upgrades also affect the game directly which is awesome! The audio adds to the juiciness overall but the visuals could've been polished a bit more with perhaps more color variations on the environment. I would also say this is silly in a serious way! Overall, I had a lot of fun with this one and the game has such a perfect ending! Great work!

I was worried there wouldn't be an ending to this game like in a lot of other "upgrade and progress" games like this, but I was not disappointed, I did not expect to fly away like that haha. It was fun for what it was, simple, but still a fun play. I liked the combo system and that the number changed colors, cool detail! The white text on gray buttons was a little hard on the eyes in the upgrade menu tho.

Really fun to play!

The premise was simple but it was really fun. It's a different but just as satisfying way to see numbers go up. What I like about this game is that it's easy to go from one attempt to another and all you have to is hold and release spacebar. I'm wondering when the alien became part of the concept.

bogos binted?

Really cool! really chill and just made sense!

Fun game, and a lot of personality with the alien. Took me a minute to realize I had to press again to dive, but it was fun timing it with my spin and the distance left to the water. Good job!

216,840!! Love the ending as well, once everything is maxed out, GREAT CHOICE!  This was simple and effective fun.  Only note would be to reverse that aliens animation during the charging phase after it completes.  It would have made your little guy look much smoother / like he was changing his mind on the downswing of the bar.  Great stuff. Consider your game thoroughly played. I played it to the end twice.

GGS! Yes, i wanted to do it but focused on other stuff, ty for the feedback and im glad you liked the game!

This had such flash game vibes, I really loved it! The simplicity of the mechanics made it really addictive, I couldn't stop until I had maxed out all the stats - and the ending was sick! A really creative and great use of the theme as well [:

As for critique, I thought the text was a bit hard to read as it overlapped at some parts, but not a huge issue. I thought the music was really chill, and while the sound for spinning was satisfying at first, it got a little bit sharp for the ears after so much repetition. Finally, it could have been nice with some kinda indication or instruction for when to press to get a perfect dive, especially since it was a bit hard to see where the water started. 

But overall, I had such a blast playing through this and getting all the upgrades, great job!!

Thanks for the feedback, it really helps for impoving on other games !!.

Haha, very fun game indeed. I was not expecting the end at all, very funny. Nice audio with a nice gameplay loop. Simple but effective. Nice work!

Developer

Thanks! I focused the game loop and upgrades in order for it to be completable and everyone reaching the end!

A very nice and satisfying game! It's fun to play if you're looking for a simple and fun game to pass the time. I also like how the different upgrades improve certain aspects of the alien's jump, like the gravity or height. Also, the combos you can make are fun with the various multipliers. I do feel like the game's text is too small, and certain aspects are a bit unpolished, like the alien's jump, but they can be improved upon. Overall, a nice goofy game that fits the theme well.

Developer

Thanks!! yes, there is always room for improvement, but thank you a lot for all the feedback!

Submitted

So satisfying...
Played all the way to the end with everything upgraded to max.

25 flips was my highest with mid entry and 24 with perfect entry
Good job with the mechanic and audio.
Room for improvement on art side.
Couldn't find any clear distinction from where the water starts.

But over all good job! 
This game deserves more rating.
