very cool game with a lot of secrets great job! My only complain is that it takes a lot to respawn you might need to change that but still very cool game! ^^ (also i know that is trashy but can you also rate my game? thanks ^^)

Developer

Thanks! I went ahead and played and rated your game as well, really cool game. Lots of surprises and fun mechanics.

Really great and hard game! I also really love this pixel-art. And this game fit for theme really well! Good job!

Developer

Thanks!

I fell through the ground xD 

Overall nice game. The only thing I would change is the long blackscreen after you dies

Oh that wasn’t supposed to happen, thanks for reporting that. I agree the respawn time is a bit too long, thanks for the feedback.

My only issue was the respawn time, great game

Thanks!

I enjoyed the smooth movement and loved the art style. The music was a bit loud but bearable, and the respawn timer took a little too long. But i liked the use of the theme and simple, yet difficult, platforming!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. The music volume can be changed in the options page, but I’ll keep that in mind for the future.

I really like the fact that there is check points!

The game is really good in all aspects but I found the respawn time annoyingly long.

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks! I agree with the overly long respawn timer, in the future I’ll change that.

No problemo! Not many people make a decent storyline, your one was up to the mark! In the meantime, would you mind checking out my game please???

Developer

Sure, no problem. I’m not at my pc atm but I’ll check it out when I can and let you know what I think.

I really love the amount of content in this game. If possible this game should be made into a full release!

Developer

Thanks!

duuuuuude that regain double jump after touching wall thing is genius, i would play an entire game just based on that, the art and music are pretty good too idk why it starts muted  but it's a shame. i wish i could finish it but my laptop can't detect mouse clicks when i'm using the keyboard so that dash part is where i had to leave it but based on what i played alone it's pretty great

Developer

Thanks, did it start muted? I didn’t have much time to play test so I wasn’t aware of that, strange. Glad you enjoyed it.

Nice game dude, enjoyed it. Only things that spring to mind for me. I think improving the respawn time would help and also make it so you can't control the player on the fade in after a respawn, that killed me a few times but that's probably mainly beacuse I am bad. Controls felt a little bit floaty to me and could do with a little more precision. Though if given more time I am sure that would have been sorted.


I enjoyed the game, the art style was nice and the sound track was good but not overbearing which is a positive to me. I had fun playing it and wanted to keep playing.

Developer

Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. Being able to control the player during the scene transitions was one of those small bugs I didn’t have time to fix, and I agree with how the controls feel a bit floaty. I wanted to try and fix that, but again, ran out of time. As for the respawn time, the delay is needed due to my poor optimization, since the game data needs to be loaded in, and isn’t the fastest. I’ll definitely take all this feedback into consideration for my next game.

Developer

Thanks!
