The art style and the environment of the game is nice, and the premise of the game is interesting. However, I was not really able to enjoy the game due to a lot of issues with the gameplay. The platforming and combat felt unresponsive, I never really felt like I was interacting with the world, more like glitching through it. The combat encounters were unbalanced. I am unsure if it is a glitch or not, but having eight enemies ambushing me constantly did not feel very fun. Overall, I think you guys have the basis for a really great game, and with more time and polish it could be amazing.

- The visuals are wonderful and the writing is quite endearing! The dash felt good to use but the movement was a little slippy. For the combat itself, I think enemies take too many hits to kill and fighting them in small spaces was nearly impossible since they would crowd the edge of the platforms. That being said I was eager to go through the levels and hear more about the story! --- The dialogue of this game was very cute, loved the interaction between the fairy character and player character. The overall presentation is beautiful! Combat did feel very difficult; the player attacks felt a bit ineffective against the enemy characters, and the enemies spawned pretty overwhelmingly in certain locations. But I would love to see this fleshed out! --- 30/40
