Great game! I thought the visual style, music, gameplay, use of theme, were all super good!! The gameplay was just challenging enough to be really fun. I think any harder or any easier and it wouldn't have been so good. So great work on that. 

The progression and introduction to new mechanics were also well done.

Overall, fun experience, I'm sure this will do great in the final results! :)

Good game, I really enjoyed the gameplay and the sounds, but having a dialogue every time I die is REALLY annoying, so i just played until the hook part.
Obs: There's a bug where if you move with the arrow keys the character's facing direction doesn't change

Awesome game! But there are too many actions for me, I get confused with the buttons. I noticed that the character sprite does not change the direction of view when you move using the arrows.

Very interesting and fun game! I agree with the feedback o the other comments, but in general it has nice visuals, a cool gameplay with cool mechanics, sounds and music. Nice work!

The dashing of the edge felt a bit unfair also the fact you have to listen to the dialogue at the start every time you die was also a little annoying especially in a game you die so much. But otherwise a very nice concept and a fun game to play. The controls felt alright. The music was very fitting. And the levels were cool.

Developer

Totally agree with this, but unfortunately I didn't have time to pay proper attention to it due to time constraints and personal difficulties. Thanks for the feedback, an update will be released after the contest ends! (so as not to break the rules)

Very polished entry, great visuals and audio, generic gameplay but still engaging. I agree with commenters, it’s a little difficult. Great work!

Developer

Thank you so much! I appreciate it ^-^

I really enjoy the overall game! I especially like the decaying field effect closing in, but maybe it was a little too fast for me to avoid in the beginning. Still really fun, with the awesome art and music!

Developer

I made it a bit faster than planned initially, just to compensate low amount of levels. Thanks for the feedback!

Really nice game! I think these things have been said before, but the walls blend in too well with the ground, and the difficulty is high very early on. Still, the mechanics were really cool and I enjoyed it as an enjoyer of hard die-a-lot types of games. Super nice art and sound too!

Developer

Yeah, I agree, the walls look weird and also they have terrible hitboxes)

There will be an update right after the contest ends.

Glad you liked it! Thank you for your kind words ^^

Nice, I like the feel. Hard to tell the wall apart from the floor, the decaying field effect was really good, all pixely.

I'd have to agree with the comment below about dashing off the edge, but it does add an element of difficulty to timing the boosts. Very fluid controls though! Cool art style as well. Well done!

Prety tight game, but I would really like it if the dash didnt kill you when you dashed off of a platform. Died to that too many times O^o

Developer

Yes, falling off platforms looks and feels strange at the moment, I will definitely revisit this mechanic in an upcoming update. (after the contest)
