Great game! I like the opening isekai'd lol
Very nice job! I don't have much to say other than that! it was really good! Maybe just don't repeat the music after every level. Just keep it playing all the way through. Oh and I got a bug where I went backwards through the door I came after switching a level and I got stuck. I really thought it was funny that the ghost guy bobs his head to the music for some reason.
Very nice platformer with precise movements and great attention to sound effects, well done !
I especially love the character runing and respawing animations.
If I were you I'd probably boost the double jump height, since the 2nd jump is so low, at first I thought I didn't have 2 jumps.
Fun game! I like the pixel art. i found the second level a bit confusing without hints or help but once i got passed it, it was fine. nice music too!
I could not pass the 2nd location (most likely there is a bug, sorry
Thanks for trying our game! In the second level, the platform switch mechanic is introduced, where you can press E when standing by a switch to activate the platforms currently locked in place. I hope this helps solve your problem!
Like the synced music and character animation! It feels so satisfying. (also the artstyle)
You may get soft-locked by the platforms, so be careful lol
Thank you for your feedback! Yeah, getting soft-locked can happen that is why we introduced the pressing R to respawn to get out of situations like that.
Controls are fun and the art is great especially the starting cutscene
Thank you for your feedback!
Cool platformer :). I really enjoyed the art and the music is nice too. A bit of feedback is that the buttons that paused moving platforms don't reset after death, so if you pause moving platforms and then die you can get soft-locked. Other than that great work!
Thank you for playing! Getting soft-locked can happen that is why we introduced the press R to respawn in cases like that.
I have to say, I am impressed. This game really feels good and I like the concept. Keep up the great work. Come Rate my game too Please, thank you.
Thank you for your feedback! I will definitely check out your game when I get the chance =)
I played this game everything is very integrated, the art and the music, everything seems very complete, impressive for a game jam. I rated. I would appreciate if you would rate ours too!

great game! controls are excellent.
Thank you for your feedback and thanks for playing!
Nice little platformer! Loved the pixel art, music was soothing, had fun!
Great work!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for playing!
Amazing job at creating an excellent character controller as well as well-designed levels.
Thank you for playing and your feedback!
very cool i was trying to get the platforms in my game do the same thing as in yours like go from one position to another then return how did you do it because every time i tried it just glitched so i went with another approach. Really cool game and i loved the dying sound effect it was so satisfying.
While I am not the creator of this game, I would recommend using the DOTween asset which allows you to lerp to a value and then reverse it automatically.
So that trick took some time and playing around with rigidbody movement and changing course in a transform list. There are several ways to accomplish the effect you were trying to achieve but yes it took some time. Thank you for your feedback!
One of the best character controllers I've seen from a jam platformer in quite some time! I don't really have any major concerns or critiques other than some small details like the volume controls in the settings don't seem to work. Other than that though, really solid!
Thank you for your feedback, Yes we found out during playtesting after the game was on itch that the main menu settings audio controls were not working. However the in game pause menu settings audio controls do work! Once the rating period is over that will be one of the first fixes we implement!
Cute little game! I'm stuck in the level with the box... I don't really get what I'm supposed to do, since going to the left side of the screen doesn't advance further ^^'.
From what I've seen so far, it's a nice little platformer, sometimes a bit glitchy, but finely tuned regarding the character speed! I don't really get how does it fits the theme however ^^'. Is it because it's sometimes useful to die&respawn after activating a switch ^^?
Unlocking the box (using a switch) it turns green and then you can push it and use it to continue to the level. (Hopefully this helps!) Thank you for playing and your feedback =)
Thank you, let me give another shot at this level to adjust my notation accordingly ^^
Great game even though cant get past level 2.
I believe in level 2 introduces switches. There is a switch you activate to move the platform that is needed to complete the level.
Great concept and great puzzles.Really good pixel art and music.I've noticed that repeatedly clicking space sometimes causes you to be blasted into hyperspace.Otherwise this is a really good job
Thank you for your comment! Glad you enjoyed the game! We are sure to give it a nice quality of life update after the Jam is over =)
How to pass lvl 2?
If you are stuck try thinking in a creative way!
