The game seems nice, and the style fits well. The jump and wall climbing can be kind of rough at times. Other than that, I think everything works together.

It's a good game, but it's a bit flawed.

This is basically your regular platform game, but with a higher difficulty than usual. There are only 4 levels, and they are a bit tricky, but still possible to finish, and navigating them feels fun! Unfortunately, the physics of this game are very flawed. The character sticks when landing, wall jumping feels odd, and sometimes the ground detection might not work properly. They definitely need to be fixed after the jam.

The graphics are nice. I like the low-poly models, the dim lighting, and the UI is pretty clean and readable. These graphics, and especially the level and main character model designs, create an odd, weird, and otherworldly atmosphere, which is only magnified by the choir music.

Speaking of music, it can get a bit annoying after a long time playing the game, but still, it sounds good. Sound effects are also good, I like the button sounds, alongside jumping and landing sounds.

Overall, this is a good game, but the physics definitely need some tweaking.

I agree with christopherbot, the wall jumping is a little jank. You should check if the player was on the ground before initiating it so you can jump UP when sidling a wall.

I like the lighting around the character and the background music painted an interesting mood. I found the wall jumping to be fairly inconsistent which made it difficult to find the controls natural. Nice work overall.

Graphics are good!

I really appreciate the cute, derpy graphics of this game. I think the wall jumping could be smoothed out a bit better, as a lot of times I wall jumped by accident or I couldn't wall jump when I was trying to. Overall, nice work!
