The menu is super polished and the dash is as well. Great job!! :D

This game is nice! The art looks like it fits together and looks pretty nice! However the movement controls felt a little bit off, other than that it was a good game!

Submitted

I think it would be a cool idea that if, for example, you roll a 6, you can now take a hard difficult route with a big reward. And when you roll a 1, you have to do the easy route with a smaller reward. I think that would be a fun way to implement the random dice roll as a mechanic. Other than that, I think the game looks great, there are some nice little details, but as others have also said, the controls could use some work. 

Submitted

I think the controls were a little difficult, and sometimes controlling the player felt a little clunky, especially when I got stuck on corners. Its a neat concept for a game though, and it could definitely have a decent amount of replayability with a little more polishing. Good work!

Submitted

Nice job, really clean platforming and I like the camera shake on dash. I didn't love getting stuck on corners from time to time, but that can probably be ironed out pretty easily. I also took a long time to realize that you could dash UP with W held down, haha, but that's probably more my fault.

Also struggled with the controls, but the level design and concept were cool. Definitely would lend itself to speedrunning.

Submitted

Really nice already! The dash mechanic is a fun way to traverse! One thing though is maybe indicate some how which pits lead to death and which to another part of the level

Submitted

Definitely fun. It seems the main complaint has been with the controls. I had issues adjusting to clicking being the dash, but other than that they seemed fine. Wall jumps were a little underpowered, but I'd assume that's to keep the dashes as your main form of significant vertical movement.

It is very funny to me that people are sending you videos of speedruns. Definitely a sign that your game is clicking with people, though!

Submitted

Dang those speedruns are impressive...
The graphics look awesome and the snow is a really nice effect. The biggest issues for me was that wall jumping doesn't give enough momentum (making consecutive jumps really hard) and you can get stuck on corners. But the game is still fun and I really like the visuals of the dash.

Very good platformer, has a few hickups but overall a very enjoyable and challenging experience

Submitted

Very nice platformer! Although I had some problems...

1. You can easily get stuck on walls.

2. You should come from the same side of the room you entered.

3. Controls are confusing and unintuitive.

4. If you go to the opposite direction of the room you entered, the game softlocks.

ty good sir

cool idea! it's executed pretty well, very good mechanics, and sometimes can be a bit challenging. good job!

Submitted

Nice game, reminds me a lot of celeste. I like the twist of having the amount of dashes tied to a dice roll. Good job!

Submitted(+1)

Cool concept and nice mechanics. Though I must mention that the kickoff for wall jumps should be a little higher. Overall a nice entry.

Submitted

I agree

Submitted

Good stuff

Submitted

really get that celeste feeling

however the controls are a little wacky
