I really enjoyed this! I'm gonna keep this brief since you've gotten a lot of comments already, so I'll try to just point out a few notes others haven't
In terms of positives:
Amazing! I was not expecting a game in this state in the prototype phase, congrats!
Loved the art style and the animations, the overall vibe is fantastic :)
One thing that bothered me were the controls, I kept having to come back for the instructions to remember which button did what. But I guess this will be sorted in the future with proper player onboarding.
I absolutely loved the 2.5D effect, very original of you :)
Part of my brain started feeling strange towards that, though, something about perspective didn't seem right. Maybe the rate in which the back sprite moved should be much lower than the rate in which you move? Don't know, just throwing ideas here.
Really looking forward for playing it in the future!
the controls were a bit confusing for me but i guess that's how it is whenever you start a new game! - overall, i love the aesthetic and think this is going to do great!
Hey! Thanks a lot for your feedback! Did you use a keyboard to play or controller? Do you think custom key bindings would help to make the game more accessible for you?
i used keyboard! i think it's mostly because i'm used to traditional keyboard layouts. i wasn't used to some of the buttons being very specific like jumping. but i do think this might depend on the player and just getting used to the buttons. but custom key bindings are always a plus!
I’m terrible at platforming and Metroidvania games — but the art and music are so charming in this that I might just have to give the final game a try.
Fantastic job.
You may be terrible at platforming, but you're very good at saying nice things! We try to make the game as accessible as we can so you can enjoy it too!
God this is too good already
This is pretty mind blowing for a prototype. Can't wait to see what this flowers into!
