Better to spill a little milk than expire completely! 

Have fun helping save all the food that's about to expire in the fridge in this new platformer for the Gameboy Color!

more little non-intentional things I found:

balloons can be bounced off, and if bounced off to three tiles above the balloon's original spot, a fake balloon will appear 3 tiles higher than the real one, it disappears when it reforms though

at the transformation section, you can press jump a little bit the transform button, and this makes the milk body do some weird things, and gives you a higher jump if holding the jump button. this reveals the fish in the water is killable, for whatever reason

the fish maze has strange hitboxes...

the first lime in the line of fruits is put as a semisolid, I have no idea why, but I assume it's unintentional

if you jump across the fruit gap, you'll find the refrigerator's wall is offset

if in damage animation and climbing a ladder, you'll become invisible

in the second liquid section, holding right as you enter puts you somewhere unintended. You can get out, but it requires a damage boost and very precise movement.

pressing z twice near the hole after the second liquid section softlocks you

I love this game :b

wow thank you so much for all of this!! It honestly helps a ton! Especially since when I'm working on it and play test there's a lot I just don't try! You are exceptional at finding bugs, I'd love to have you playtest more of my games that are in development sometime if you would be interested :) But no pressure!

I'd be up for it

bug found: If you go into the expired milk thing, and hold the up arrow key, you can negate all damage

note: you'll need to have the damage animation happen at least 4 times to do glitch

Thanks for joining the jam and making such a visual pleasing game in only 7 days!
It's looks so good on real hardware as well! :)

Slows down a little when played on an old DMG though.

thanks for hosting the Jam!! It was so fun to push myself to make a game in just seven days, I wouldn’t have been able to come up with the ideas without the pressure of the jam 🤠 I hope you host future jams, I will definitely participate in as many as I can 🎉

I will try to make this Jam a yearly event!
I already took a few notes on how to improve this in the future!

amazing can we please get more? Thank you

thanks so much 🙏 I am hoping to add to it over the next month 🤠

Quite an interesting game, however, here are some of the points that could be polished ahead of time, have a look.

  • The movement mechanics could be improved more.
  • The overall environment looks great but we feel like it could be more dynamic.
  • Also, if possible the character animations are too less, so you can also think of adding that.
  • Some user feedback systems like camera shake and visual effects could be added to make it look more awesome.

🤠
