Very simplistic game yet fun mechanics, very cool.
I felt that the controls where a bit awkward sometimes but i guess that was the intention anyway right?
Maybe in the future you could try to add some levels that mix up the zones for more complex puzzling. 
Good job.

The awkward controls weren’t really planned but i didn’t want to lose too much time polishing the controls when i had still a lot of work to do on the rest :p But that worked out with the theme i guess :D If i were to update the game, it’s totally something i would polish first though.

Thanks for your feedback :)

Really nice artstyle!

I liked the different zones and what you did with them.
Some things i noticed when playing:

  • You have to move to see the tutorial text on how to move(?)
  • I wish you would slide on the white "keep moving" zones if jumping. 
  • Some of the colliders were a little off and i would slide off some platforms. 
  • Because i didn't die before the green no-turning zone i didn't know how to reset so though i was soft locked.

A really enjoyable game overall. Impressive!

Oh, thanks for the lovely comment!

I had to “hack” some of the colliders last minute for a quick fix and i hopped noone would notice hehe 😂 I never thought of the soft lock you had on your playthrough, maybe i should have displayed the tip on a timer if the player isn’t moving. 🤔

I really enjoyed the game. Some really creative levels! The only thing that felt off to me was being able to "stop" by jumping in the no stopping zones. But other than that it was crystal clear. Great job!

Thanks for the feedbacks ! I initially wanted to have the player keep going when jumping during no stop areas too, but it didn’t feel good with the high speed of the character at that time and i didn’t want to risk changing this at the last minute (and have to redo some levels) haha.

Very solid, I enjoy the way different zones can be used! I do wish it had a couple more levels that messed around with all the zones interacting, but this is still a nice game!
