Really cool game, I really enjoyed playing it. It took my a while to get the timing right with the eye animation, but once I did, it felt really good to play! I also liked that you had a lot of checkpoints around!
Sometimes, idk how, when I switched the eye and I was stuck inside a block for a short time, I was floating above the ground a little (dying fixed it). I also think the game would benefit from some background music.
Over all really fun to play, I played till the end :]
(I hope you make it to the 20 ratings :] )
I am very happy you enjoyed the game. First off that bug you experienced was something that kept happening when I was working on it but I didn't end up having the time to fix it, so I am sorry it impacted your gameplay. About the music though, there actually is some, its just admittedly very quiet, if you want go back and turn up your volume to have a listen. Thank you for playing I am very happy you enjoyed it!
Very good game with really nice graphics. But timing your jumps is very hard.
I am happy to hear that you liked it!
I love everything about this game, game design, art, music, SFX , movement, concept and it is totally fit the theme.
I like the location of the checkpoints and the different ideas on each level, I really enjoyed this game and I hope there are more levels to play.
Congrats, Great Job!
I'm very happy you liked it! About the more levels, since I'm not sure what I want to work on next for a game I was thinking it could be a good start to work on thks project some more, so maybe there will more levels in the future. I wouldn't count on it though.
The pixel art is nice. The movement feels good for a platformer. My only gripe is the delay on closing your eyes make timing the jumps really hard. Would definitely take a lot of practice to master.
Thank you i'm glad you liked it. Sadly the delay is an important part of it but I agree I could have done better to work around it.
Really great game. I really like the way it teaches you the mechanics. The gameplay is really innovative and it's clear how everything works. The visuals are really nice and the sound is good (a lot of people make a really annoying jump sound but yours sounds good so good job on that). Some music could help with the atmosphere but I get that its kinda hard to make on top of everything else in the time frame. Overall one of my favourites out of the jam. Amazing job!!
Thank you very much, I tried my best to make it clear how everything worked without saying anything so I am happy it came across well. There also was some music but I admittedly made it really quiet and because of that basically imposssible to hear, its nothing remarkable but if you want go back and turn up the volume. I am happy you enjoyed it though!
I'll have go and have a listen now, thanks for telling me.
This was very fun to play! Good job! I especially liked the design of the eye opening and closing
Thank you very much, I am very happy to hear you liked it.
The levels increasingly build on the different mechanics, starting off as simple tutorials and evolving into difficult gauntlets! I really appreciate the effort you put into dithering the tiles in the walls, it gave life to what otherwise would have been a boring part of the screen.
Thank you very much, I am really happy you liked how I introduced new mechanics!
loved the art, the time between pressing the button and the eye openening or closing. maybe change the key used to open or close the eye to a key that you press with the right hand so that you kan move right and close or open the eye at the same time
Thank you! That is also a really good suggestion, I didn't really think about how comfortable it would be for your hand to press all of those buttons at once.
Great game! I loved the mechanic of having a delay to open/close the eyes, it made things way more challenging and fun.
Thank you! I am really happy you liked it.
Really like this game! The art is great and while the audio may be lacking a bit, it works great for what it is. The eye-closing mechanic works really well and the slight delay makes it easier to predict jumps, while also adding a bit more difficulty. Really well done!

Love minimalistic pixel style and the tight gameplay, jumping feels like it should!
Thank you very much!
Very good game! The graphics and audio were really nice and it fits well to the theme.
Thank you! I was worried that it wasn't going to be close enough for the theme so I am happy to hear that you think it does fit well.
