Well executed idea. Visual style was very similar to Celeste, which is one of my favorite games.

Cool mechanic and nice visual for when the hover will run out and recharge

Thanks for bringing it to the stream:

Developer

Thanks for playing! Sadly it looks like you hit the same bug as lots of other players, sorry about that.

Overall great game!

I got stuck here sadly, maybe a hitbox issue or because the speed became zero?

Developer

The collision bug claims another victim! Sorry about that. Fix coming as soon as the rating window is over! I hope you still enjoyed it.

Submitted

Nice concept, impressed you put this together in such a short time. Didn't read the description beforehand, so unfortunately I did get stuck on the fifth level. Keep it up!

Submitted

Really nicely executed, clever idea too, liked all about it...except I got trapped where you said I could get trapped :(

Developer

oh no! The bug claims another victim 😓

It felt a bit tedious to play, but the idea of momentum is a really good one !

Submitted

Never thought I'd be controlling Theo :D Nice game, the mechanics feel good. Good job!

Developer

Ha ha! The resemblance is uncanny isn’t it. I didn’t even know that was the character sprite when I downloaded the asset pack!

Submitted

Great Job. Cool music :)

Submitted

Really cool concept and execution. Great work.

Submitted

This was actually a really good game. Your level design made this a lot more interesting than it originally seemed! Great job!

Submitted

This is a cool platformer mechanic, but I also feel like the levels demanded a lot of precision from the player very early on. Good effort!

Developer

Good feedback! In retrospect I wish I’d added a few easier levels to start with. I fell for that classic trap of getting too good at the game while developing it.

Submitted

The hover mechanic with the boxes was a lot of fun to control, and the levels were really well designed! The difficulty curve was fantastic, and I'd love to see more of them!! This was an awesome game. Good job!

Took me a second to grasp how the blue zones worked, but after I figured it out it was really great.  Nice work!

Submitted

It's pretty fun! Just fyi you can get stuck if the blue square rams you into a wall

Developer

Sorry about that, I will publish a bugfix as soon as voting is over!
