Tricky! I really like the minimialist design and the way you used the hourglass to build the volcano. A fun play on all of the growing lava game themes out there. I think a little bit of me died when I realized I had to jump onto the one pixel platforms though...nice work!
the character was way too fast, but I enjoy me a good platformer. there is probably much more you can do with the theme but I enjoyed the game overall.
yes, I agree with the theme. I think if I could go back I would work on making a lava/obsidian tile set to use. I updated the player movement, if you get a chance to play I'd like to hear your opinions on it now!
it's better now
Ah a fellow man who enjoys making difficult games aha, Loved the aesthetics the pixel art was done really well :D and ofc what the others said with coyote time BUT great job I enjoyed it alot
Hey thanks for that! I tried to keep the art as simple as possible, hopefully my skills will increase in the future! Just added coyote time, double jumping and adjusted the players control. If you play again let me know what you think!
Liked the games art !
Liked the games art !
The controls definitely don't quite match the level design, I sometimes felt I'd have to press and release the button more quickly than is humanly possible in order to get to the tiny platforms. Other than that though, the idea is really neat and I like the presentation!
