Really fun! I enjoyed it. Levels get a bit difficult, but that's a skill issue on my part. The skeletons did look a bit weird, like they didn't really fit too well with the rest of the game (might be their resolution?) but other than that, really great stuff. ^^

Very solid entry. This is pretty and all, has lots of levels with increasing difficulty. I enjoyed it a lot.
very good game interesting and enjoyable so much, the only feedback i have is to reset the velocity when teleported that way it would be easier to plan and execute plans. well done submitting the game (•̀ᴗ•́ )و
I love the art and the movement is unorthadox and I like it alot. Seen alot of games with teleporting AND walking. But the idea that you are too weak to move makes for an interesting mix up. I like the moves you can pull off by doing multiple teleport directions. I got stuck at the part where you have to hop over two skeletons with the low ceilings. I think implementing a bit more of a teach, test, challenge scale up specifically around whichever set of moves you're supposed to use to get over / past those guys would be cool. Nice entry!
Super cool concept! I love a platformer with a twist like this, I made something not too different for a game jam years ago, but you had us doing some really cool tricks in this game. I unfortunately couldn't make it to the end, the room with the high vertical part and the skeleton underneath was too much for me :( I would say the main drawback is the extremely high precision you need sometimes. Otherwise, good stuff!
It's a littly bit tricky to throw a crown at times, but overall I liked the concept. Good job!
Creative movement mechanics! It turned out difficult, but not impossible, I like it. Somewhere stuck in the textures
very very very strong use of one mechanic, love it, well explored, game doesn’t drag until it would overstay it’s welcome.
super strong entry (though I’m not super sold on the theme usage)
I HAD to finish it and couldn’t put it down.
felt clever to discover the diagonal throw.
my main feedback for improvement:
- hitboxes felt unfair at times, maybe make the enemies slightly smaller than the actual sprite
- “tutorial” text could go away forever after the first screen, it’s just annoyingly there afterwards
I don’t like platformers but I was locked in for this. I really wanted to finish it and put in some good time but got bugged inside of the level twice near the end RIP. Won’t effect my rating though. Great innovation on the crown I think that was awesome and I super unique. Visuals were awesome, appreicated the cutscenes too. Crown SFX was a tad annoying but other than that music was nice. One of the top entries I have played so far, great stuff.
Fun game and cool art! I think a fullscreen button would be great but that's just my personal preference
Very solid game! Really creative gameplay idea, and also a cool story. The ending was a bit sudden, but cool nonetheless. The only thing I would change is the annoying click sound each time you throw your crown, really jarring. Other than that, good stuff!
Took me a little bit to figure out but it was a great game to play! One of the best I have played so far!
Wow, actualy managed to beat this one.
I liked the puzzle elements of diferent ways you can use the crown, very clever. But the level with 3 skeletons was straigh up hell, tried it like 20 times till i finaly got it, the last skeleton alwayss got me. Final level took me a while to figure out, but I got it in the end.
Great game! The mechanics made this platformer a bit puzzle centric and fun. I'd like to see how you'll be building up on this already good game. I feel like there's a lot of potential for this mechanic and can be explored quite a bit.
The game is good. maybe throwing the crown with the mouse could've been better but its a very nice game!
