I tried to be clever and have some fun with the mechanic by scaling the lanterns while on them but the guy just falls off. I think it would be interesting to have a mini puzzle where scaling one while on it would be good.

That's a great idea! I would've loved to make the lantern scale up and down smoothly, rather than instantly jumping from one location to another. I'll change the code once the Game Jam ends so it moves smoothly and don't throw you down.

the motion was a bit iffy, kinda zooms off the edge of the stairs eh. But that art was the great, truly a dapper fell.

Thanks a lot for playing! I'm glad you liked the character, the stairs feel pretty janky for real 😁
