The game was cool. What there really is to improve is what has been mentionned a lot already, screen transitions. It also seems like your levels were designed globally, so the limit of a room was in the middle of a platform. This made the parkour part really hard, since you couldn't see where was the next platform. Apart from that, the game wasn't bad.

Developer

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback!

nice music and colour palette

jumping between screens is annoying, really can't gauge where to land and sometimes it sets you back

i also ran off the right side of a screen and got stuck once

Developer

Thanks so much!

Very true, we are going to make a post-jam version with better camera movement

i also ran off the right side of a screen and got stuck once

The collision and camera movement is all coded by me (Because we used a fantasy console and it doesn't have that stuff built-in) and they have some glitches.

The art and music was charming! The screen transitions between rooms was a little jarring. Good job.

Thanks! I'll change the camera movement in the post-jam version

This was fun. The movement felt great and the level art is nice.

The window to stand in safety and be able to jump to the next platform is so small sometimes. These small windows took most of my health.

Developer

Thanks! Your right about the window of safety, it kills me too. If I make a post-jam version, I'll have an infinite health mode so people can actually beat the game and be able to play the boss fight.

Concept is very good, with some polish and a little more time, you could have something close to xeodrifter on your hands. Very well done!

Developer

Awww, thanks! That really means a lot.
