This is so cool!! I love games that focus on player movement, and I gotta say, this one feels really good. The parallax background is also really cool, and I definitely feel like I'm on an alien planet. I didn't personally have trouble making the jumps, I thought they were very reasonable. I appreciate that you included a slow-mo toggle though, since that really helps with accessibility. 

I'm honestly not sure what to critique. Sure, there isn't a huge amount of content, but I think you made the right choice to focus on the player movement system over everything else. This is one of my favorite entries of the jam!

I think this game has some big potential for creating amazing-feeling movement! Already, the speed and momentum, and especially the grappling hook feel really good to use, even more-so coupled with the very weighty, chunky sound effects. The mechanics were interesting too, and gave a nice layer of extra depth. 

I do think that the main area of improvement would be to either pivot away from the more precise, small movement areas (like more towards a Sonic type level design where you just want to go fast and do more big grapple swings and jumps) or tighten up the controls for moving in tight spaces. At the moment, your momentum carries you a little too much even with a small tap of the movement keys, making things feel too floaty in those sections where you have to do tight wall jumps or things like that. 

All in all, when the game/levels allowed it, everything flowed super well together and felt great to play. I would love to play a version of this with even tighter movement as well!

Love the character animations and the momentum-based platforming reminds me a lot of Rayman Legends. Great work! Keep it up! 

I absolutely loved this game. This is my type of game and I love how fast pace and fluid the game was. Its visually stunning and I love the way the text didn't interrupt the game at all when explaining controls. I will say I did find some of the jumps to be a bit rough and got frustrated getting stuck on the same spot over and over. Especially because as someone else mentioned, this reminds me of Celeste, but in Celeste sometimes you have the option to take a break from one area and go to another one and do that area first. So given that sometimes these jumps are very difficult I wish I had the option to go somewhere else first before having to retry that jump cause as someone who's honestly awful at platformers despite loving them, I did get stuck.

I'm guessing you like Celest since this is really hard I got stuck on level 2 lol 

I like the low gravity but maybe make it a bit easier to control it's really hard to go where I want to go 

the hook is pretty cool and a nice feature 

a faster way to die would be nice watching yourself fall for 5 seconds not very fun

some parts of the levels feel like they're for a ball rather than a human I guess sonic was an inspiration for that 

still with some slight tuning maybe some enemies and more levels this could be a great platformer game
