It gets harder each level, and the level's get darker.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
No. Since I'm a beginner coder, I made all of the scripts, but ChatGPT helped me with like two of the scripts. Also, SteekStook made the menu music and Student6767k made the backgrounds.

Amazing game! The unique movement mechanics and fun animations really stood out. I agree that adding more audio cues would enhance the overall experience, but I had a great time playing it. Fantastic work!

Well done on submitting, this is a good effort! I found the controls to feel a bit floaty and unresponsive at times, which isn't ideal for a speed running platformer. The music was a nice touch which I enjoyed. I really liked your idea with the power ups, the speed one added that fast paced feeling which I wanted and would have liked to see more of those. The collection of the coins was a good way to give direction, however the levels all took place on the same plane and I think adding some more variation in the vertical plane, and maybe a change in direction (going left to right), would make the levels feel more interesting. Overall, nice job and good luck on your next project!

Developer

Tysm for the suggestions and I’ll take these into account!

First of all, love the animation on the character! And the teleporting arrows was quite interesting. I think the movement felt a bit clunky as jumping while moving would always get me killed by the spikes. Overall quick and fun game though good work!

The levels for the most part were easy to navigate and dangers could be avoid. Having a rocking character felt odd for a platformer but made me think about my placement before taking some actions.

Developer

Thx!

Hey, good job submitting your game! Maybe add an audio cue for when you successfully completed a level or when you died.

Developer

Ok thanks for the suggestions!

Decent little speed run platformer. Enjoyed the music quite a bit. Great work! Congrats and good luck!

Developer

Tysm good luck to you too!

Interesting movement mechanic, and great music. My main suggestion would be to add more sfx (IE jumping, footsteps, death). Otherwise, great job!

Developer

Yeah, I should’ve done more of that. Thanks for the criticism!

Cute but I didnt see what the detective part was all about. WHATS MY CASE? WHAT AM I INVESTIGATING?

10/10 would chase the coin thief again

Developer
