I kinda love this and I think it's actually probably possible to do a complete run like this, though you might run into trouble in the factory level that requires you to sidestep
The game loads, but the loading bar just stays empty until it does? (safari/chrome on macos). Better to have the word loading than to have an empty bar?
There was a time I thought I was an egg. This made me realize I was very naive in my foolish notions. I would like to think that I now can really comprehend and embrace egg. Thank you for the eggsperience, Terry. Always a wonderful surprise in store with all you do.
Masterful... I love all the subtle touches that make things more forgiving: the instant restart option, grating off the water level so you know you don't need to explore further there, the completion tells on the transporters, the frequent checkpoints. I was bracing myself to get frustrated but it was just pure joy from start to finish.
My nest order (rot13.com): Haqrejngre -> Jvaqzvyyf -> Haqretebhaq Cvyynef -> Gerrf -> Pbafgehpgvba Fvgr -> Jngre Gbjre
I was really surprised by how quickly I was able to get an intuition for which jump to use in most situations. I got a little frustrated with the water tower section, but still, a very fun and enjoyable game!
Goodbye cruel world! I tried to jump in to the pipe just past the first suction teleporter if you jumped down and went through the mountain near the beginning, ended up falling through the world and not dying/respawning. Other than that, cute :D
The camera would often clip through wall and show the insides of levels. Once my egg was close to a wall and I was facing away from it, the camera went so far inside the wall I couldn't see my egg and had to restart. That happened once.
The death/crack texture would stretch and clip through objects in a weird ways way too many times, was just a distraction though.
The last (Cistern in the sky?) level there were a couple of instances where the platforms crack/destroyed states were switching before I hit them? I believe at least once it was due to my death body touching one of these and triggering them, I assume. But it might also just be janky touch detection.
It’s so frustrating/relaxing that it reminds me of the days when games were published on NewGrounds. I’ve been playing it for a while, sometimes the camera freezes, but other than that, the game is smooth. I would really appreciate it if it were possible to manually restart the game from the last checkpoint, because it’s really annoying to get stuck in the middle of nowhere (water) and die, otherwise you have to die to respawn directly at the correct checkpoint.
This actually caught me out just as I was uploading! Did almost all the development for the game in Firefox on Linux, but seems like there's a specific issue with itch and godot mouse capture. I added a comment to an issue I found on GitHub about it - if there are any developments I'll update: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/51810
(In the meantime, it worked for me when I played in fullscreen, at least)

Nice game. You should see if you can work this into the multiplayer eggxtraction arena genre.
Fun!
Very hard to get out of the tubes. Also you can get the "trembling" animation stuck if you manage to activate the tube but also jump out.
the musoc and atmosphere were very nice, so nice i was expecting deep egg lore to pop up and wouldve taken it in stride
Eggcelent game, very nice
Found the first nest only by jumping and changing directions, not realising that WASD moves the egg. Game seems too easy now.
jump% run

abyss world has kangaroo-mode challenges!
me too!
Go team! Did you clear any of the levels? I managed to reach the nest under water with all the .. frog eggs(?)
I found them all! Climbing the tower is hard but fun
hahaha amazing!
Egg! The floaty blocks were hell but I enjoyed the nest at the end.
Shame on me for doubting Terry and egg for even just a second. This is actually really fun and relaxing.
this was a lot of fun!
eggcellent
Eggs I guess.
i love a charge jump!
The game loads, but the loading bar just stays empty until it does? (safari/chrome on macos). Better to have the word loading than to have an empty bar?
Ohh, thanks - will look into what's going on here. (Adding a loading image is a good call too)

first ever egg-like
This is exactly what I was looking for
Hi, Terry. Fabulous! I really love the look.
eggcellent
Just so beautiful
A true eggsploration game. So fun!

I agree, all those "quality of life" features makes what could have been a very frustrating experience instead a very fun time.

Doesn't work on Firefox Linux unless you're signed into itch.
That's weird; seems to work for me in Firefox Linux from a private browser window? Maybe it was just a temporary glitch on itch?

2030: EGG. The Master Egg Collection
(reply if u get the reference)
This is, hands down, the best (and most difficult) game about being an egg I've ever played. I beat it, though!

I like this! I hope it gets retroactively added to Terry's Other Games, since I'd love to easily be able to play it on my Steam Deck
It's nice! Is it some kind of inside joke that increpare is also working a 3d physics platformer with an egg :D
I swear they were working on it together...

Babe wake up VVVVVV 2 just dropped!
Jokes aside, that was a wonderful experience. Beating this was most pleasant. Thank you for making this.
I didn't encounter any huge bugs.

Thanks Terry, never ever stop making games.
You can press R!

a brilliant companion to arctic eggs
EXACTLYYY
dude, ps1 egg. eggcellent
tamago
I finished the whole game.
It was fun.
Thank Terry!
Won't run for me in Chrome.
What OS are you on? Do you get anything in the developer console? (I'll put out downloadable versions in a few days)

I had to run this game in Edge, it really doesn't like Firefox. The mouse just points to the sky if you move it in any direction.
Egg.

I'm also on Linux, strange it doesn't reveal itself until it's being hosted on itch.
Thanks for the tip - I'll run in fullscreen so I don't have to use Edge again.
Works fine in Firefox for me, so it may be something else causing your issue
I had no problems with Firefox 144.0.2 on Win11.
