★ Enjoyment: 4/5

The game is fun but too punishing for me. Also, Edd really loves to repeat their lines again and again, huh

★ Design: 4/5

I assume it's designed to be an action-platformer game? Which is not that bad, not my jam tho.

★ Presentation: 5/5

Very cute. Love the style and the design of the world.

Notes: I'm not sure if I got to the end or not, it's all just velvety blue after defeating Edd.

I had some gamer rage moments in this one. Not because of the platforming, that was fine ( even though it's a bit cruel that one mistake makes you fall down all the way to the start of the game. ) but the final boss. The fight is just plain not fair. There were constantly moments where there was no possible way to avoid the bullets. I'm sure there is some way to manipulate them in such a way that you can dodge them, but to expect the player to figure that out themself is just unreasonable. In addition to that everything does sooo much damage. And if there are I frames (I'm not sure if there are) there are not enough. 

I was only able to kill the boss because it glitched out and I was  able to wail on it until it died. 

This alone made me leave this game with a bad taste in my mouth. Despite all the great things it offers. 

The story and world are interesting and the character voices are fun. ( Except nano, the voice is a bit too ....... uwu... for my liking. That's the best I can describe it.)

Graphically this is just amazing, the chromatic aberration, the screen shake and the particles add so much. All the artwork is fantastic. And so is the music as well.

One last thing is that in my opinion the control scheme is all over the place. Having jump on up is one thing but then using space to dash just messed with my brain so much. I think it would have been much better to make the controls more traditional: Space - jump, shift - dash and CTRL - slide ( or something similar) 

Despite that, I still enjoyed it. Thanks for making this game.

Your world is great! Very beautiful <3 I like a achromatic lens and shake when I do dash jump, the music is very cool, I love it. Some challenge too hard for me, but doesn't mean can't, good level design. I found that I can do dash after jump about 0.1s, maybe, I can jump higher >:) It helps me to resolve some hard area too much. GG! 

Gorgeous looking game and very atmospheric, but über-punishing level design.

I see others have mentioned the jump-dash and here's my take: the jump-dash is a little tricky to use because, unlike a typical jump or double-jump, you have little to no time to do any course correction after the dash completes, especially when jumping to a higher elevation platform.  It means that if you overshoot, you're done. If you overshoot on a jump, you can let off the jump and have some time to move left/right to accommodate. (I did find that I could mitigate that some by simply dashing and jumping at the same time, which in your mechanics creates a sort of boosted jump instead of a jump and air-dash.) Anyway, all that's workable if you build the level around that lack of control. Instead, literally the first time you have the user try the dash, you're forcing them to land on a one-tile platform. Not too much later, you have a similar jump, but it's somewhat far from a reboot station, so you have to do three or four jumps, fight several enemies, then overshoot the dash jump, then do it all again...and again. I'm of the opinion that sort of stuff should be much further in the game after the player has had plenty of time to use the abilities, get used to feel of your game's controls, and have practiced several similar jumps in less punishing situations.

I feel like I've sort of ranted on this, but it's only because the rest of the game feels sooo good that I was upset that I couldn't face playing it. I really want to learn more about the world you've set up, the melee feels nice and crunchy, the post-processing is tasteful despite how much of it there is, and the music and sound design is top notch.

You guys really did a fantastic job putting this together. Just give the level design some more love and you'll have a fantastic piece!

Amazing atmosphere! Only problem is that I got softlocked during the jump/dash tutorial...maybe have an upwards-facing dash that will let you escape the pit?

You guys blew me away with this one...A visually pleasing game not gonna lie. the sound, and the art, and all THAT POST PROCESSING is just super crazy.

i wanted to give up pretty quick because the movements are just quite unforgiving. that jump and dash has a steep learning curve and doesn't always seem consistent, but i didnt wanna give up so soon because of juicy that game looks and sounds 

just maybe try making the jump a little higher and reducing the overshooting once the player lands?

top job otherwise guys 👏👏 Congratulations

This game is absolutely fantastic. Everything here works, the design, the cinematic mood, the sound effects are on point. Extra points for the soundtrack that in conception, execution and implementation is impeccable. I love how the sounds become dull as the health bar goes down, it brings a good sense of risk, something like "hey, I know you think this world is cute, but it's also dangerous". I want to see more of this. Congratulations!
