This was longer than expected! I love the black and white art style, the music and the sound effects. The map was really big and quite fun to explore and the skills were awesome! Maybe walking was a bit slow for me, but overall this was an excelent little metroidvania!

Thanks so much for the kind words!

Hey. I recorded a video about the Beginners Circle jam and included your game in it. I had a bug when my character just dissipated. I do not know why it happened. However, I restarted the game and still completed it. If you want to cut your game out of the video, let me know. However, if you like the video, I make similar videos every day. I will be happy if you subscribe. Anyway, I enjoyed playing your game.

I really like all the abilities, they are super creative, and I love how you go back into old rooms in the map through hidden entrances and stuff :p also the atmosphere is great and it was very fun to play! I couldn't finish it because my game froze after I died while double-jumping, but what I played was very fun and cool!

Thanks so much for playing! I'll have to look into that bug.

That block moving idea is really cool! I wasn't able to win but I started getting the hang of the movement.

Developer

Thank you!

I pressed I but the character did not dash :/ so the first enemy I encountered killed me and could not play further.

Developer

You have to unlock the dash power by collecting the right candy. ;)

Beat it by cheesing, but it was very fun!

I liked the game's arts, it's also quite difficult. I found out that we can move a block while standing on it and remove the block from our feet, just to see us floating ^^

Thank you for your feedback! Yes, originally I made it so that you could only move blocks while on the ground, but a couple people noticed it was easy to get stuck that way, so I changed it. Haha.
