This was a very fun game to play, but I do have to question the choice of putting "P" as the slash button, and I think the slashing hitbox was very small, but it's still an overall fun game

Submitted

Very solid submission, it really gave me Hollow Knight vibes with the slash boost and the heat mechanic is really well used, dangerous but needed to be fast! Goodjob!!

Submitted

Hah, we have very similar style and mechanics!

This is good idea with speedrun.com

Submitted

Good game rate mine too please

Submitted

aesthetics are insane!

Submitted

I Loved The Art Stile And Music Is Just WOW, Make Sure To Rate My Game! Thanks!

Submitted

nice little 2d plattformer, i realy like the art and the moad but i think the movement could be made easier for the player

Submitted

It has really cool vibes. The keyboard controls are a bit awkward, but once you get used to them it's very fun. Or you could just play with a controller instead

Submitted

Art and sound are amazing. Gameplay mechanics are fun but kinda incentivise just knowing the entire map by heart (cus u get faster when you keep moving) so its a bit frustrating playing it for the first time.

Submitted

I love the art style. The movement feels nice when running but I felt the wall jumping interrupted the flow as I felt I was sticking to the walls. I also struggled a bit with the slash at higher speeds, might just be me though. Really fun, good job!

Submitted

I really love the idea of heat actually being your power and not curse. The artwork for this game is also extremely pleasing to look at! Im sure this game has potential for a full release!

Good job and good luck on your future projects :)

16:0.47, yes it took me that long but i finally finished it. Had to really  really focus lol (the last level was sooo hard but yay i finished it) Overall i really love the game. I like the vibe of the game. The music really creates a much nicer experience. Its extremely polished and there are no bugs that i have encountered in this game.

Really nice design in game mechanics and the game flow^^

Hey, I've been rating a bunch of games for this jam, and I gotta say yours is up there among the best of this jam. As for gameplay, you've got some pretty robust platforming as well as the heat and the kill boost, which are cool. The only annoying part is you can't immediately walljump in the opposite direction (you have to jump facing the wall, then turn around). In terms of theme, you've got rock-solid implementation in every aspect of the game. For aesthetics, the character is really cool and has a slick minimalist look, as do the levels. Then the lighting effects are beautiful as well! And the chill music tops off the game. I love it! I wish I was good enough to finish. I am not gamer.

Cute arts, nice sound. Controlls are a bit wierd but you get used to it

Submitted

great art, the camera is well done (can’t quite tell WHAT you’re doing, maybe a slight zoom trickery) but it feels quite nice as you start going faster

the kind of monocromatic look is very dear to my heart… 1/2 bit art and this style are my favorites.

as you start going fast of course it gets harder and harder, but doesn’t feel unfair.

my only complaint really… is the music is SO LOUD, like INSANELY LOUD : P.

I wonder if that’s some specific engine or something, there are 3 or 4 games I saw today with this same crazy volume.

Submitted

Very difficult - I feel you could split the level up even more to create a more approachable difficulty progression.

Aesthetics are nice - especially the main characters animation - it has a lot of character.

Submitted

i really like the parralax effect and the sprites look gooooooood

Cool game i like it.
