BABY SHOOTING

Dear Forest Folks !

We came across a cute baby. We need to rescue it and bring it back to its cradle.

But the path to the cradle is long and filled with traps, we need to .... shoot and pass the baby!

Get, pass and shoot the baby to the cradle but KEEP IT ALIVE at all costs.

Sympa le jeu, la mécanique est bonne est fonctionne bien, c'est graphiquement plutôt sympa aussi par contre la boucle de la musique m'a fait quitter le jeu :x

Les graphisme sont cool, on dirait une version un peu réaliste de Yoshi's Island :sweat_smile:
Par contre les contrôles sont peut être un poil trop rigide.
Mais dans l'ensemble, c'est un bon jeu ! :thumbsup:

Mécanique sympa avec les lancers de bébés, ma foi peu recommandé, bon jeu, mais la musique est un peu trop répétitive

nice mechanic. never played a game like this, quite innovative. throwing a baby in the air to then jump up, catch it and throw it again, is worryingly fun. 10/10 would throw a baby in slow mo to my partner

Nice work! the double jump took me a little while to work out but I liked it when I did. I thought the addition of other creatures was great with different attributes. I struggled with the controls not throwing to the side sometimes so the baby hit the cieling a bit too much :S good job anyways! and thanks for rating my entry :D

I wasn't sure what to expect from the title but it's a nice platform puzzler, well done

I wasn't too sure what to expect either from the title. I am rather new to gaming so it took me a bit of time to work out some of the mechanics but once I got going I found playing the game enjoyable and fun. I really like the concept and graphics not so keen on the music either. 9 /10 for me.

It is nice to see another game that features child throwing and slow-motion! The graphics were good and the sound was also really good. The animations seemed to be a bit buggy though. The gameplay was really good! It was fun to throw the baby into walls and it had a nice ending were you find a much better cradle.

This is one my favourites overall, good job! Coming up with a puzzle game in three days is very impressive. But MY GOD the last level is frustrating

I like the style and the look of the character. Pretty cool concept, would like to see the controls a little more fluid and polished

The vines remind me of the classic Lego vine piece haha.

Very good, it would've been nice to color code the yellow dinos in the first couple of levels so i can easily remember what order they are switched to. I like the variation in monster type aswell :)

Super good pixel art! Loved the different puzzles / levels. You even had a tutorial level!!! Game was easy to play but I am not going to lie, I may dropped the baby, thrown it into the wall and once on the roof, and spiked it like a football in the endzone lol. I had a good time playing it well done!

This is a super fun game, my favorite right now of all I've played! The only thing is that having the level select button next to the switch character button is really rough, I keep accidentally pressing level select. Would ABSOLUTELY love to see a full version of this, this ought to win the contest!

Galapagos crocdiles smashing babies into wall. "I would buy that for a dollar" :D Game mechanics are solid and sounds fitting. Good work! :)
