This is so good!! loove the mechanics and momentum tricks and stuff, they feel really good to pull off. So much more potential for these mechanics and aesthetic, would make a great speed game with some more leniency and feedback. Great art and clever ending too! great work.

sick mechanic. only made it to level 6 unfortunately but had a lot of fun playing it

Strong concept, good controls. Took me forever to realize that you could move the umbrella, but quite enjoyable once I figured that out. Fullscreen doesn't work right on macOS at elast.

The umbrella is multipurpose and fun.

This was awesome! Having the umbrella be both your shield and a movement mechanic was a really smart and unique idea. With how the levels were designed you were really able to get a lot of use out of the different umbrella directions in a way that felt natural. I also really like how you did the rain visually. Overall, great job, probably my favorite so far (I just wish there were some sound effects lol).

Very good game with unique game play. Very clever use of the bouncing with the umbrella. At first I thought it was a glitch/problem when the umbrella got stuck on the wall, then realized you needed to do that to pull yourself up.

Great submission, wish you had more time to add music/sound and menus/interfaces
