Good job! This game has several interesting mechanics, and it certainly wasn't easy to create :) Just out of curiosity: are there features you had to cut due to time constraints or other limitations? I've opened a topic called "The Features Cemetery," and I'd love to hear about your experience. Anyway, I appreciate the effort!

Took some getting used to but was pretty easy otherwise. You could exploit it pretty easily.

The combat mechanic could have been a bit better, It definitely needs indicators when you take damage, and it needs some ui elements letting you know your abilities are ready.

Took some getting used, challenging to master but once you do it's satisfying. The graphics are great and everything feels fluid, nice job

Amazing game! I love the aesthetic. Great job!

Good looking game mate! We already gave a sneak peek in the Discord of the Game Jam!

There are just some things about the movements of the character and his attack that do not convince us, but in the complex is a very good game.

An advice that we suggest is to use a different font for the tutorial parts and the dialogues. Probably a Sans Serif font will be the best

Nice platformer with good-looking aesthetics. Good job!

the art is really good

Cool use of the theme!  I agree w/ Lanyard on the mechanics bit, takes a little trial & error to pick up what you were throwing down.  Not a huge deal, though.  

I love those parallax layers back there, but it's easy to lose appreciation for them with the character being fast-paced like that.  This is not a negative, just something I noticed because I really like how the lighting effect was done in that background.

Regarding controls, just FYI, it didn't pick up my controller.  It's a typical Logitech USB Playstation II-style.  Keyboard was fine, I just mention this because the game explicitly mentioned controllers.

Only other thing is I noticed you don't have to press a jump button for each jump, holding it down will repeat the jump.  Pretty minor, just slightly counter-intuitive to me.

And my favorite facet of a game, to the point I think it would make a good category--atmosphere =D.  Awesome job there, 'nuff said!

Interesting implementation of the theme through the use of the scales. Solid art and good sound! My only nitpick would be that the scale/time mechanics were cool, but it wasn’t really required to use them in most places which led to me simply using the sword for most encounters. Great game, nice work!

I like your approach to pixel art. I thought the sword swing of the protagonist looked especially clean. The other characters were all distinct as well. I think you did well bringing your vision of this mystical forest to the screen.

It took me awhile to understand the mechanics behind the Scales. Some deliberately designed areas that teach exactly how they work in your game and forcing the players to use them there could help ease players into an unusual system. Not that there's anything wrong with an unusual system, it's at the heart of all innovation of course, I just think it needs to be taught with some consideration.

I think the combat needed a few more "Player Verbs" to feel complete. Some kind of dodge, roll, or block would've given me a better fighting chance with these grumpy forest denizens.

Thanks Canoparia! Keep on creating!

I think that this game has room for improvement, but it's a good submission for a gamejam. The idea behind it is really good!

The idea could be solid and you already know the problems so I won't state them again. For these mechanics to work as a game your fighting system must be very very good. Like "Dead Cells" good.

I am not sure but I think you also waste a lot of time on key bindings. It is good to give those options but only if they don't take much time like the unity new input system.

I had many problems with these big guys and could not finish the game if there was not any bug in the game :)

enjoyed game , but maybe the key bind for jump and attack little bit hard to me but overall i enjoyed :D
