It’s tricky to control but a really fun mechanic to play around with! The fact that falling teleports you exactly to your last position helps a lot when trying to experiment with things. I think the trickiest part for me was the three consecutive ledge jumps, but it felt pretty good once I got to the top :) I was able to skip using the phantom on that last jump before getting to the room with all the decorations, you can just barely clear it from one edge to the other with a regular jump, which I thought was cool to be able to do hehe. I was a little unclear if that room is supposed to be the end or not, as there doesn’t seem to be an end screen or anything, but if there is actually something beyond that little staircase area I could not find it. Fun little experimental game!

- Fun, addicting, and neat. Took a few tries to get but it's a lot of fun. Some more practicing on learning new skills would be nice as some people take time to learn new momentum movements.
