I really good 3D game! A little bit difficult, but very funny! Nice work!

That was cute, movement really need some acceleration curve work. Good job :)

Good job ! But I think the theme "unstable" is a bit underused ...

I was about to stop playing when it was revealed the pad can *deactivate* when you step off it as well, and that started to present some quite interesting puzzles when combined with the unstable platforms!

Cool gameplay and the model is real cute! Although I get the same sensation as I do when I play crash bandicoot where I find it hard to line up my jumps because of the perspective

The main character is really cute! It was fun to play and challenging when you have several unstable platforms. Also, I think there are shortcuts available for skilled platformer player, and that's nice for them. Great game!

The graphics are super cute! The execution is also nice, but the jumping was a little bit janky, and jumping towards the camera was very challanging. It'd be nice if the camera was a little bit further back, or zoomed out a little bit if the character faced the camera

the controls are a little bit floaty (platformer) and it could really benefit from some 3d platformer tips like adding a drop shadow below the player so that the player can line up their jump, and having the camera be more zoomed out so that you can see jumps when jumping towards the camera. the puzzles are pretty crafty though and managed to complete it.

At first, I thought the controlls are a bit wonky. But after level 3 it just made so much fun and was a bit of meditative even. And I got to the end :)

The puzzles are clever but not unnecessary difficult.
And there are quite a few levels wich is really nice.
Music and sound are alright, although the music is a bit nutty :D

Overall solid work, I had fun playing and thats what matters the most.

Ohh jumping + an angled camera is a tricky problem! Many many games have tried and struggled with this so you have set yourself a hard task :D You could add a blob shadow under the character rather than the normal shadow which can shrink when the player is higher up? And make the jump a little higher too. I dunno just copy whatever mario does haha those games are a masterclass in game design xD

Nice platformer! I liked how you changed camera views and I felt overall there was a good difficulty progression of the levels. Cute character! Good job!

A game that must be polished. In the end it will become something really cool.

Jump accuracy is pretty bad. Sometimes it jumps, sometimes it doesn't. This interferes a lot with the gameplay.

Congratulations to the game...

Nice player on-boarding in the beginning to show all the mechanics! Also the increase in difficulty seems fitting. The 3D platforming and changes in camera position between levels works well - altho I wish the camera would show more when going backwards on the tiles. Dunno how the theme is represented here (apart from the few unstable tiles) but does it really matter. Unfortunately I'm not very good at the game, so didn't get to finish it!

A nice platforming challenge! The mechanics were explained and fleshed out and the levels were nice to play! Had to get used to jumping before inputting a direction before I got used to it. The controls are pretty tight as well. Thought I had fun!

Good work!
