Some things need to be fixed, like the brightness of the tutorial and the knife sprint (it's too fast and uncontrollable, I couldn't get past level 1.1) but the idea is really good and you got the feeling right so you have to keep working on it!!!

I Tried running through the game sequentially, but there are some levels with incomplete flooring, and you fall forever unless you return to the main menu. First of all I love that you did sprite art for your main character. Second, the movement feels good, and that's what's important. I think what sets it back a little is the coloring being a little ambiguous for where you can jump or not. Thanks for the plays though!

Developer

Sadly unreal deprecated the web build functions:( I have been trying to explore opportunities to get it onthe  web somehow. That or steam if people are interested in a whole game for it!  :)
