The color palette is really nice to look at. Reminded me of retro Sonic games. Enjoyed the gameplay and the black hole is a very challenging addition to the platforming aspect. Please let the hair also scales on this game so that he is no longer bald, thank you.

Great game,  I really enjoyed the concept. However, level two was really difficult. But I'm trash at platformers.
