The difficulty and controls would need a refinement, but otherwise a really cute game.

The visuals are absolutely stunning. The second I saw the title screen I got hooked. The void expanding around you looks and feels really cool. I wish it was introduced a bit more gradually though.

Beautiful looking game! I love the whole vibe. Level design could use a bit of tweaking but for a game jam it's great. Love the music and SFX! <3

Very original mechanic, fun to play, great graphics. It gets hard pretty fast, I lost patience at the level where your can fall on the trampoline and get shot to the upper right where I constantly died. Would love to see more levels with this mechanic and a slower learning progression.

Fun! but very difficult...
Amazing art! Sounds are spot on! And cool animations!
Incredible shaders!
However the player felt very heavy, 
The enemies were such a pain to struggle with, and admittedly I felt really hopeless whenever I saw them in a stage (which led me to skip some levels unfortunately)
Interesting concept. It shows that it leads to some pretty sophisticated levels.
VERY difficult! But I did have fun nonetheless.
Great work!

Coming in here to gush only to see that, of course, I'm just adding my voice to the chorus of "wow"s. I can hardly believe that this was a jam game, y'all did seriously such an outstanding job with it -- art and animation style are so clean, consistent, and polished; music is a jam; and the core mechanic of having to balance the hops and the void is brilliant and goes perfectly hand-in-hand with the level design. Like some other folks in the comments, I've never been much for platformers on account of being Very Bad At Them, but this silly little bunny has well and truly stolen my heart. Doing it for you, little guy.

Really lovely art style and an interesting approach to the mechanic. Controls were a nightmare for me personally and I rage quit in the end. 

For those who persevere does the rabbit character get a motivation for hopping around?

there actually is an ending screen with some artwork if you can brave the final level

Plattformers and me wont become long term friends but this one was absolutely lovely. Great job.

Such a well made game. This theme is really bringing the best out of talented people like you.

Solid overall, and I especially appreciate that there are no lives, I can just try again instantly. I suck at platformers, they stress me out but thiso ne haven't. Great job!

Poor Rabbit :(

The mecanics is really original and even if I like hard game, it feel unfair sometime.

The actual DA is insane and consistent!
Well done!

Wow, there are a lot of levels! The main mechanic was interesting and the early levels do a good job of communicating core puzzle-solving mechanics.

However, I do think a lot of the levels felt unfair, where you would be killed quickly before even having a chance to get your bearings. Particularly, jumping on a trampoline often meant dying at least once before you could know where it would have you land.

The game looked great, especially the character design of the rabbit in a hat! The void effect was also really well done.
