This game is a lot of fun! I haven't made it to the end yet because I've gotten stuck in a few places, but I'll keep giving it a try. I love the story and the art and music fit the game really well. It's all over the place in a good way, like why am I in the middle of a hotel swinging from vines?? haha it's a lot of fun! 

About getting stuck, there was a switch you have to hold down for a gate to open to get a power up -- I assume you're supposed to leave a dummy on the switch, but if you dash when the gate is up you're fast enough to make it, but then you're stuck behind the gate... Also, in the area below the swinging vines and hearts near where you get the charge attack power up, I'm not sure how to climb out again. I don't see any doors or platforms close enough to jump to... sorry Pebbles!

hey there, thanks for the comment. Music/Level Design here. For the gate, yeah we know about that one but I left it in bc time constraints + being able to load from the pause menu. For the other one, you can use the walljump to climb the same wall like in MegaMan X or Super Metroid. Hope this helps!
