This is a surprisingly solid time-killer for a quick break. The level design is clever, balancing challenge and accessibility perfectly. My only minor gripe is that the first few levels are a tad too easy—maybe an option to adjust the starting difficulty for repeat players? Still, highly recommend for a fun few minutes.

Okay, the mechanics are tight, but the real game is the score. I wish the leaderboard updated faster! I'm trying to optimize my key-to-door run time, and it feels like the current scoring doesn't adequately reward the perfect, no-mistake runs. Still, the 'easy to learn, hard to master' is real here. Need more levels, devs!

As someone who played a ton of these physics-puzzle-platformers back in the Newgrounds days, this is a fantastic modern take. It nails the core loop: quick restart, clear objective, escalating difficulty. The spike placement on level 15 is a genius throwback to the old 'one-hit KO' frustration. Only thing missing is a level editor community!

OMG, I just downloaded this because the duck is adorable, and I can't stop playing! I've never really played these kinds of puzzle games before, but this one is super addictive and so satisfying when you finally clear a tricky level. I literally screamed when I beat the level with the rotating saw blades! Five stars, please make merch!

From a design perspective, the game is incredibly efficient. It conveys the rules instantly and uses minimalist assets effectively. The difficulty curve is well-tuned—it introduces new environmental hazards smoothly without huge difficulty spikes. However, I noticed a slight inconsistency in the duck's hitbox when grazing the corner of a spike wall. If that were tightened up, it would be a perfect execution of the genre.

Good game to pass the time while waiting for my coffee. It’s definitely engaging, and the little duck is charming. The only reason it's not a 5 is that the background music loops a bit too quickly and gets repetitive after about 10 minutes. A couple more tracks would make marathon sessions much more enjoyable. Solid effort, though!
