That's a really cool game! I enjoyed the pixel art style, as well as the overall atmosphere a lot. Great work!

Very nice retro theme!

To be honest, this was pretty relaxing to play, just to listen to the music and chill and glide around.

Played the "hole" thing! ;)   Thought it was a great game! Here are a few things that I noted:

-In the statue level, I thought it was a rather poor design choice to have these nontrivial alternating spikes at the beginning of the level. They felt a little bit like busy work, where you would have to spend a good 15 seconds pausing and walking forward, in order to give the rest of the level a go. 

-Sometimes spikes would damage the player for 2 hearts

-In the statue level there was one set of alternating spikes that were only 1 block wide, and made it so that the player would have to be excessively precise in order to not get hit.

-Falling rocks would not always trigger when stood on

-Hitboxes were a little too harsh in my opinion

Thought it was a great little game though... Fantastic job guys!

Nice art. Gliding feels satisfying.

I like the art style, sounds. The only thing is it is hard to see spikes.

You mean about spikes in the second biom right ? I knew they blend to much with background just didn't had time to fix it before the ned of the jam. Definitely will do with the post jam version, with all other bug fixes o/
