Cool game, reminded me of levels with looping borders mechanic in VVVVV (was my favorite mechanic from that game), fun implementation. I wish that level completion screen wasn't so white compared to the darker style of the game, felt like a flash bang every time xD

Fun but short, I recommend playing the game in fullscreen and wish I had from the start :P

Brilliant.

The idea is just amazing, it could be developed further into some amazing game. The controls are a bit loose, especially the double jump, it is a bit difficult to perform. Overall the art, music and gameplay is nice. Theme interpretation is outstanding.

Play my game too

Wow, you guys really took the "Secret" theme and ran with it huh? From the hidden blocks to the level wrap around, I got a time of 2:00:364. You love to see everything in a game like this work and work properly. Also stylin' on people by catching the small palette, but it works. Great game guys.

Fun little super meatboy style platformer with the twist that a lot of platforms are hidden inside objects or are made of shadow. I liked it, the puzzles were fun and none of the platforming was too punishing. I ran into the bug where sometimes my player would keep running after landing. I really enjoyed the lighting effects and the sound was super mellow. The speed running aspect was cool. Really nice game.
