  • Very animal well vibes. I like it a lot. I like how movement feels controllable. Like ya can control how high jump should be. I think this would work well with gamepad.
  • The environment is really cool. I think some of the issue I had was that I wasn't sure what would hurt and what would help. The very moment light was showing up, the character would be dead without warning. So, I wasn't sure what the heck I was dying to most of the time. It was fun and that's something to take pride in. Keep at it. Refine the game a bit and you'll be doing great!

Tell us about your game!
Star-Crossed is a game where one of the largest threats is the sun. The planet the story takes place on is so close to the sun, that it vaporizes anyone caught in its light during the day. Essentially don't go into the light and don't jump on spikes or lava.

Extra Notes
If you don't know where to go, follow the fireflies.

The movement is fast and snappy, the level design complements the theme and mechanics, the colors are subtle but nicely chosen, and the concept is a creative and fun take on a platformer. Great entry!

Fun game, the only problem i found with it is with the level where you fly from the beggining i think something was bugged because i was dying repeatedly before the potion to extend the effect if it wasn't a bug you should probably extend the time that flying works or put the potion closer
