- I enjoyed playing through this. The controls were a little confusing at first as it wasn't obvious that I had to hold the up arrow pretty consistently to be able to make most of the jumps. Art design was unique, and the music was pleasant. Well done.

A nice little taste of what's to come!
Overall, great job for your first game jam entry!
Really appreciate it, I wanted to make it a bit longer but was running out of time and wanted to prioritize having the "tutorial" work. Hoping to add more levels after the game jam finishes.
Really enjoyed this platformer! The music had a great vibe too. Hope to see updates in the future
I like the neon palette. It's pretty unique, and gives the game a certain retro feel to me (not sure why). I like the overall concept of the game too. It's sort of a fresh take on a metroidvania.
I couldn't get the last piece of the door though :(
The 3rd piece was in the enemy that you collect by jumping on them and the 4th is in a section in the top-left, so you may have missed one of those (you didn't miss a lot though since the game's shorter than I wanted but wanted to be sure all the mechanics worked)
Movement is super solid! The flips and turning was super cool. I wasn't a huge fan of the inverted colors though. However nice map and super neat feel to the movement. Keep it up!
