First try!




Though the game did kindly prevent me from jumping into pits here and there. The location of power ups (or power downs sometimes) helped guide the path, I'm assuming there's only one safe route through to the end.

Very epic with the falling boulders and music! And collapsing floor tiles.

I... kind of remember Star Tropics a little bit... this didn't feel awkward at all!

Cool game! It fits the team well! Really good job!

At some point I didn't really have a choice where to go. if there were more choices it would have been a bit more interesting. But I still really like it!

Game was fun and really thought through. Thinking about all the options a player could have and it is invalid to jump on a breaking tile. Really good for last stand. A sound setting would be great, because the music and sounds are very loud.

Thanks for playing and the feedback! I turned the volume down a bit :)
