Things i like about this game:
Capybara Quest Gameplay
Really, really cute and simple! It's not a hard game but it's not easy. The Yuzus were easy but I hate skeletons now
That game was fun, and much cute. Nice work!
I think I found some Easter eggs where you fall in the ground under a box, there is a sign on a building that I can't seem to get to, pressing alt allows you to jump, and if you crouch when you meet an enemy, a bunch of scrambles appear.
Also, when you jump on one of the trampolines, there is a face of somebody who looks like Slappy from Goosebumps.
Also, when you eat a fruit, you can return to the spot the fruit once was and the capybara says a heart. Also, you don't need to press down and to the side to exit a ladder. Just the left or right is enough. Also, you can eat the fruit even if you're dead, or even die again. There is also a sign in a pit in the first construction level that says "No Easter eggs here, sorry."
There must be some kind of glitch in the game. I cannot advance past the first Construction World level on Cool Math Games.
I can, but when it looks like you have to jump over the bat, you have to go under it.
EDIT: Also, I am in full screen.
really cute
Very warm and adorable, but VERY difficult, with slippery controls
Hi Maxthetics! Love this game. It's got a wonderfully warm vibe and fun platforming mechanics. We'd love to have the game on Coolmath Games! If you're interested in non-exclusive licensing and want to learn more, please email us at games@coolmath.com :)
Really adorable game, unfortunately when I discovered that the cannons had no impact, I decided to put the game on hold for now as that removed a lot of the challenge. Would love to return to it again in the future :)
What do you mean? The shots they fire definitely hurt the player.
I tried standing in front of them several times and took no damage whatsoever.
very good
My only criticism is that the bullets shot by the cannons don't give you a game over. It would be more challenging if they did. BUT this game is adorable and I'm having a lot of fun going through the levels!!
ok i pull up
gb studio moment (good game tho)
very nice soundtrack
Hey that's a cool game. Just one minor issue I found, pressing z while the caps was on didn't enter the command.
It's pretty good!
The controls feels real nice
nicely done !
Oh man, this is cute as! When I finished the first level... that was such a great moment haha! Well done!
...and thanks for using my tileset!!
I originally was just using the free set to prototype but I ended up liking it so much I had to grab a couple of your paid sets. Really helped. Your sprite work is great.
Thanks heaps! Glad you like them :)
