Felt a bit confusing at first that I wasn't able to jump, wondered if I was just missing something, though at the same time I was able to progress and figured I'd just see where it'd take me. But it does feel a bit jarring as we're so used to jumping in games, and I wonder if a simple story-related reason for the inability to jump (and later learning to) would help with that (maybe the stereotypical ghost with ball & chain look lmao).

Shift + X for moving down platforms seemed a bit weird as a button choice, until ledges became a thing. Still, if you're not using the arrow down key for anything, maybe just pressing down would be more intuitive? Speaking of buttons, I'm not sure why the UI doesn't allow me to use spacebar (e.g. when moving through text), and why the button for skipping text is different from the button to proceed to the next sentence. That felt a bit unintuitive to me. On the other hand, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to remember all the controls for grabbing ledges, but those ended up feeling pretty intuitive.

The intro felt a bit long to me. That's partially because when playing a game, I generally prefer to be thrown into it immediately and get to run around, get a feel for the character and controls, etc. I'd prefer a cut scene to happen after I've done a bit of running around, preferably by running into that character myself. It just makes it feel more like I chose to start the cut scene, rather than this feeling of waiting around for the game to begin. But that could very well just be me.

These are all pretty nit-picky things, though. Generally, the game felt good to play and the challenges were fun and of the right difficulty. The checkpoints always felt fair and prevented any annoyances on dying. I quite liked the section from the first screenshot, with all the jumping from ledge to ledge.

very cool, a well done set of mechanics! I enjoyed having the jump be an unlock. I had some worries about if I just missed what the jump button was or something but the level design reassured me that I was playing right, as it was all completable with just crouching. This section was pretty fun. I think the style overall was pretty good, but would have benefited greatly from some more variety and areas. I think the story was pretty efficient, it managed to be fun to read and think about without overstaying its welcome too much. I like the main character being a simple silhouette, it looks nice aesthetically and is also a very economic decision for the jam. I also think the grab upgrade felt really satisfying and helped see the level design differently. I think the final version of the character, with the jump, grab, and attack felt pretty smooth to control and it would have been very cool to see some more wacky abilities, ie ghost powers or something. Overall I just ended up wishing there were more levels, I really felt like I just started to get in the swing of things when the game ended, so keep working on it! Great work 

Nice sensory aspect. Noticed the fog over the environment, nice addition to the atmosphere. I was confused with the controls for a bit, I tried playing with a controller first but couldn't fall through platforms no matter what I tried, so I switched to keyboard. I had fun overall, I liked the crouching puzzles when you don't have the jump ability. Nice one!

Amazing title! It was so strange and interesting experiance for me to not have ability to jump at the begining, but puzzles with platforms and crouching were very satifing. Ability to climb on platforms was also suprising for me and it leads to more cool applications of this ability in puzzles. This game was one of the most enjoyable for me. I think it needs some polish when it comes to graphic, to make more unified style, but on the other hand music was great, dialogues were really nice written, so I was able to feel nice vibe of the game.  Also when it comes to design: the checkpoints were placed very good, so you can try again to solve how to pass the puzzle but you were not annoyed, that you need to make long way to the puzzle. Last one was super hard for me though, but I was able to make it in about 30 try I guess. Thank you for this entry, great job my friend! If you would ever want to join forces for some other jam, so I could add some visual elements, remember: you have my axe!... I mean pen :)

Hey, I really liked this one! The sound effects during the dialog and cutscenes were a nice touch. Some puzzles got me because of the controls, but other than that, it was a blast. The art's on point too. Good stuff!

The witch was definitely a 10/10 waifu material.

I luv that there was no jumping mechanics, the controls... were not very comfortable though, definitely needed some getting used to.

Hey that was pretty cool. I couldn't get the controller input to work for dropping through platforms so I had to switch to keyboard and that worked smoothly. I liked the reuse of space, areas that I go through in the beginning then return to with more abilities felt good. I always like seeing fellow GameMakers, Nice job!

In general, I like it. The character's sprite looks unusual and worked out. But the same type of environment sprites are starting to confuse and it's unclear if I've been here before or if this is a new part of the map. But otherwise, the game is quite interesting.

Very fun and would definitely like to see more. The controls feel fluent and responsive and I wasn't expecting the parkour abilities which were fun once I got the hang of it. Music is soft and soothing and the art style is well done. Unfortunately I didn't save slime guy from his student debt.
