Boingus
Hi! Welcome to my very second game jam game, Boingus! Boingus is a potato with zero fear. You are the other potato guy (your name) with the trampoline. pls don't let him hit the ground 🥺
use AD or your arrow keys to steer potato guy and see how much times you can bounce Boingus (the other potato guy). You have 3 lives: if Boingus touches the ground, he loses one. if he loses all his lives, game over. (he'll forgive you if you play again)
Created in 1 week for the Brainless Game Jam (theme: little guys), and the potatoes are nothing if not little guys.
yes ik its a 2 week jam but im going on vacation :)
All code and questionable design decisions are made by me, iamericqi. and the ow sounds are my voice.

NICE GAME
THX!
i killed boingus cuz of the new bounce sound
boing boing
really good game and very polished unlike mine
Great game, loved the artsytle! Traumatic flashbacks to Silksong's flea bounce.
lol it took me three hours to beat Seth in it
boingus is the best little guy i've ever seen. what a jolly li'l man. absolutely beautiful. i want to see boingus prosper in life and bounce his little life away happily forever. this brought tears of my joy to my eyes. wonderful lil potato
this means a lot to boingus! Tysm for playing!
Very addictive game , feels so full of juice!! really nice music as well.
10/10 game. Global leaderboards when?
Got 103, it's simple and addicting lol 10/10
thx!
I love the concept it's kind of addicting :D
Pretty addicting. Really enjoyed it!!
this is awesom
thx!
Pretty cool! Nice and fun i liked it, thanks for sharing the link :)
nice polish you added. how did you customise the play button like that??
what do you mean? the custom image or like effects?
The custom play button on your page
ohh, like before the game starts? its called "embed bg" and u can change it in edit theme
great game, but the score doesn't go over 70
wait what?
after i get to 70 points it resets to 59
i tested it, seems to work for me
idk
but thanks!
thanks for trying to help! I don't know what happened, but hope you have a great jam!
Awesome game dude good work.
thanks!
Begging you to add "Style" points to this game. begging.
wdym?
I find myself playing this game, hitting Boingus off the side of my paddle on purpose, so he goes flying and slamming into the wall. it bounces off the wall, and I chase to catch and try to predict where it lands.
The way you made this, it made doing this just really fun to mess around with and I wish I was "Rewarded" the same way games like Tony Hawk reward you for doing cool stuff.
Like you jump off a building and do a heel flip all the way down into a half pipe? Style points. Sure, you COULD just fall. but thats lame.
Sure I COULD just bounce boingus straight up without moving until 1,000.
But you know whats cooler?
Smashing it into the wall, and trying to predict where its gonna land, and going as fast as possible to practically make the game 3x harder.
And in return what shall I get? Boom. "Style points".
Thoughts?
wait thats such a good idea, i dont think i have time for this jam. but after, i will definitely try to implement that. tysm!!!
HOLY MASTERPIECE 100/10 GJ BRO KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
TYSM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fun Game! I love how fair and forgiving the hitbox is. Nice work! This is the highest I can get. What are some of the other scores out there?
HOW??? i have 140 💀 i should probably make the text centered
I locked in lol.
10/10
I love this! The art style feels good idk how to put it. The music and sfx are great, and the gameplay is fun! Great job, keep it up!
