Really like the music. Calm and cool. Even the art style match the Jam theme. Great Job!!
Tried to keep visuals minimal to really focus on the music. Hopefully it came through enough. Thanks for playing and for the kind words!
Really nice work! The aesthetic is beautiful and the music slowly building up is a great addition, Neon Beats on Steam (steampowered.com) Reminds me of this.
I appreciate the kind words, Spacespy. Not familiar with Neon Beats, but looks like I'm going to have to change that.
It's a Yes ! I think we went both for the idea of layering musing throughout the game, but I have pretty much 0 gameplay ahah. I think you did amazing, the gamefeel is much better then in your first entry IMO and the visuals suit well the music. (or the contrary ? hmm) Maybe the movement feels a bit slipery but hey, it adds some difficulty and fun ! Well done !
You just made me feel really good. The feel of Round 1 really disappointed me. And if people think this is an improvement, then I learned something. Win for me. Will take the slippery-ness comment back and keep improving.
Thanks for all the kind words and the feedback. Much appreciated!

I really like the sound and art here, very well made. The neon effect was also a nice addition, it's easy to go overboard with post-processing but I think you used it pretty well. Overall, great job.
Was actually the first time I've used post processing. Little bit of a learning curve there. Glad it wasn't too much. Thanks for the feedback and for taking the time to play!
Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it!
Great game, fun and simple.
I really enjoyed this one! I liked how the music layered on top of itself as you collected more items and the end song was super nice. The neon touches were also really great
Fun fact, the music actually changes mode and "brightens" slightly with each orb. I ran out of time to start getting to the major modes, though. So it's less apparent.
And I'm glad you liked the neon. First time trying post processing. Fun experience!
Thanks for playing and for the feedback. Much appreciated.
I feel like there could be a little more to the story but the gameplay and audio is really nice and also think it's awesome that you made the sounds yourself. The level is really well thought out and like that the green push blocks can't get trapped against walls and even when it is underneath a blue one everything works fine. The best bit for me was hearing the orb charging up, especially paired with the visuals, really well done and hope to get a chance to see what is behind the door in the future
Completely fair. Story didn't quite end up the way I was hoping.
I really appreciate the kind words and the feedback. Thanks for playing!
Great execution, this was a fun game and I always appreciate the controller support.
The platforming was was fun and the sound and visuals worked well together.
Accessibility is important, so I'm trying to build good habits early in my game dev journey. (Plus, I think platformers just feel better on a controller.)
Glad you enjoyed the game and I appreciate your feedback!
