I liked the aesthetic and art assets, calming music too. The smoke effect when jumping is very nice!

Tough but fair platforming; took me a while to get the hang of the wing mechanics but it was fun. Would love to see more levels!

Nice  game. Always freezes when starting, but no issues after that. Music and artwork good, but I think more effort on these aspects would improve overall enjoyment. Nice use of physics - for relatively simply game play, there are sections that take time to work through. Great job.

such a cute game! the music, the character and visuals all game together to make a fun experience. The level design was clearly really clever to be able to accommodate the different styles, and I enjoyed both the builder and the wings path in my two playthroughs :P

Would have loved some some effects to take it to the next level, or a more responsive jump, but it was super cool overall :)

That was nice! Cool idea to choose upgrades as if you were evolving. Great work designing the levels around all of the movement options the player could have chosen!

If I had to give a suggestion it would be to add smaller jumps if you pressed the space bar for a smaller amount of time. That would have helped with the tricky sections

Also great work on the music! Thanks for the submission!

Super glad that you enjoyed yourself! Good to hear that you liked the music as well!

Had a great time! I loved the branching ability options. I started with climber and found it very difficult. Switched to builder and was able to beat it.

That was neat! The branching abilities are interesting, and the level design is clearly adapted to all combinations of abilities. Good work!

Good game, but a little too hard for me ! I tried more than 20 times and could only reach level 2.

The level design is reaaally cool. I kind of like those vertical climb platformers.

Very nice entry ! Well done.
