An excellent game in every aspect! The concept and mechanics are original, the graphics are brilliant: this game has a real identity. Progression is also very well thought out, and you get used to the controls as you go along. What also impressed me was that the game strikes a perfect balance between fun and rage: you're captivated until the very end. In short, an excellent game that I hope will be rewarded in the rankings!

Amazed by the visuals, looks really cool. And the way the character plops to the ground is such a cute detail.

Sadly controls make it hard to enjoy. I don't know if it's my keyboard being slow or just a skill issue, but i found it really hard to consistently give the right input. It kept jumping when i wanted to change direction and the other way around. Would have loved to see more of the game, maybe add a traditional control option for noobs like me (:

5* for the style

This is a truly amazing game! I would even probably pay for this. The unique one-button controls feel strange at the start, but by the end of this game they feel second nature.
I'd say there might be less rage than the average rage game, because there are frequent points that are virtually impossible to fall past, and the controls feel really responsive (seems weird but it's true). This is in no way a bad thing though, because I thoroughly enjoyed it,
The level design and pacing is amazing, and I love the perfect progression of skill.
Probably the best game in this jam I have played so far!
