Awww, what an adorable game!!! I loved Edmund Allan Jr. the 2nd's personality so much~~ The level progression was really nice and felt very "fluid" (hehe~), so I was always looking forward to the layout and obstacles of the level ahead! Also, I like that dying in the game doesn't even feel that bad because of the cute comments, they were so adorable! The color scheme also fit in really well with the atmosphere, so I was very drawn to that! Ahh, I really love the look and feel of your game, excellent job!! ^^

really well done game the wall jumps were a bit annoying when you didn't want to do it and got launched into the blood droplets but minor stuff.
That awesome game! We love your ending, it fun and nice =) Very cool pixel art and greate sound! But ending, it awesome, we love this kind of endings! =)
AMAZING GAME!
the pixel art, funny dialogue, smooth controls, super polished, just awesome.
The camera work and overall level design are excellent. Even the controls are smooth and responsive, particularly the wall slide mechanic.
The pixel art and the choice of colors are cute too, and it fits the theme very well. Furthermore, the BGM emphasizes the given theme.
Also, the story is simply funny, and it brings life to the game and the protagonist.
Overall this is a great game to be made in just a couple of days, so, well done!
That is amazing. I play your game on GMTK too, your platformers so detailed and polished. I can't think of any suggestion , only wish it was longer but in 72 hour can't done better.
This game is really awesome! Everything looks well polished for a jam game made in 3 days. The platforming and level design is superb! I also love the writing. Makes me want to kill the vampire in order to read all the lines.
It also ran perfectly using WINE (I'm on linux).
LOVED THIS! Awesome level design art and music, the comedy was good too. Reminds me of dos games i used to play as a kid :)
ending was funny as.
Very charming! I love the text when you die super funny and unique! Really cool and great writing!
Wow! Such an awesome game! Would love to see a bigger version of it! Lovely everything, the quirky lines, the gameplay, aesthetic, animation and the feeling... Great job!
Wow, very nice entry! The art is very well done and polished. The animations are great and the movement feels very solid. The humorous and short dialogue fits very well!
My biggest gripe is the the platforming gets very hard very early and I'm not very good at platformers. And the game window can't be resized and it's hard to see it on a high DPI screen.
I also really like the text boxes and how it puts emphasis on words in different ways. Since I had to implement something like that for my game this jam, I'm curious how that was done. Is it something that is provided by Game Maker Studio?
A really solid entry! Felt great to play and the dialog boxes when you died were hilarious :D
Cute, charming and polished! I loved it XD
Reminds me Celeste a lot
Absolutely the best game I've played in this jam by far! The concept is good, but the presentation is simply amazing. The visuals are simple and charming, the little vampire is adorable, the sound effect is on point. My only complaint is the game isn't longer!
Great concept, great writing and visuals - really enjoyed it. If I had to criticize one thing, it'd be that one blind fall into blood.
Overall very nice game concept. Wanted more levels when it was done!
Ahhhh! a mosquito!! nooooo!
Awesome game, great level design and amazing & funny story! 5 stars!
