i liked the idea of using a bubble gun to make moving bubble platforms! Cute Game.

It's very cute! I love the art style - it fits the game very well. The audio did get a bit annoying, having it constantly on repeat, but great job!

Love the graphics, the audio is well done as well. The jumping mechanic needs work, you probably should've lowered the gravity and tinkered with some other settings to make it more crisp so as to make the platforming less frustrating.

A little floaty movement.
Like the bubbles!

Neat idea and cute game. Controls could be a little better, but fun and interesting!

The jump is very well weighted, felt satisfying!

Bubbles worked great for platforms, but the enemies have such a small hit box and are too low to the ground for the bubbles to really work on them.

The idea of using the weapon to do another thing that shoot is great. Maybe the gameplay should have be further pushed in this way ?

It's fun to play, has nice (not perfect, but nice) graphics and sound. 4/5, cause the weapon is only somewhat innovative. The greatest issue is that the movement is to fast, which makes the caracter a bit hard to control.

Good game! I like it. Hard to jump and walk on platforms, and in combination whit waiting on platforms to come it went pretty slow sometimes. But i got a really good feeling from playing anyway :-)

Fun! The platform-making from the bubble gun is a unique mechanic and I liked the variety of enemies.

Enjoyed the gameplay and format! I like your choice of unconventional weapon.

the platform mechanic was very well executed. Jumping with a bit off for some of the placement of things but overall great entry.

I liked the bubble gun and how you could create solutions to your puzzles by blowing bubbles into platforms. Collecting lost cookies that had been taken away by a monkey was a bit perplexing, but it worked, I suppose! Nice graphics, and the music was fun and bright :)

Interesting choise of weapon, but controls feel a bit clumsy.

Thanks for all the feedback so far!
Had heaps of fun making it. I keep in mind to work on making my controls for user friendly next time, and actually think a bit more about my level design. :D

Please comment if there was anything else that I could improve on for this style of game.

Fun idea, had a good feel to it. It was really hard to jump on enemies though, I think mostly because of how quickly you fall after jumping. Great art and sound!

Really good, filling up the start button with water just hooked me in to the rest of the game. Platforming physics feel really good, but a variable jump height would have made it even better! Love the graphics, chunky pixels I'm a big fan of!
