I liked the platforming and the bonus goals that a player could reach if they were skilled enough at the gameplay. I really liked that boss fight though. I didn't expect it, but it was a great way to test the player's ability to time their jumps and dashes.

Thank you! This was my first time making a boss fight so most of the development time went towards making it. I’m very glad you enjoyed it!

I don't want to "Dye" ahaha !

Really solide work :), the wall jump is so good and the dash too. The player lacks animation but the feeling of moving it still quite fun.
I also liked the athmosphere of the game, the intro and the boss design, the identity of the game is quite strong.

Level design is a bit repetitive but the difficulty is well managed ! And i don't mind making 4 wall jump because it feels good ^^.

Overall simple concept but really nice game design, good job !

Developer

Thank you! That means a lot!

Fun game! I like how striking and cute the game looks and the "dye" pun was enough to make me smile lol. The platforming mechanics are solid, and the wall-jump and especially the dash mechanics add a lot of fun to the game. I also think the musical touches were nice too! I actually couldn't finish the game because I kept dying at the very last attack with the colored balls, but it's a fun finale otherwise and the entire thing is just full of charm. Great work!

Thank you! That means more than you think!

The game was stuck on the splash screen. Tried to play it on chrome and Firefox but to avail. Seems like its just me because no one else has mentioned it. Once the jam is over, can you provide a executable as I definitely want to play it.

Edit: Got it working, thanks to the dev.

Gameplay is really fun, I like how the pace of the music picked up as the lava started rising. Really liked the colours you choose too, the compliment each other well. Overall, the concept is really good and execution is just as good.

Dang that sucks! How long did you wait?

Like 2 minutes or something like that.

Developer

I’m not sure why that could be. I could send you another link on discord that might work if you’d like!

The platformer mechanics are fun to play with, and the level design and need to quick response really pushes the player in matter of difficulty.

Developer

Thank you!

Really fun game. I like the fact that the pink paint is the timer while climbing with cool controls. Art stile is also nice

Developer

Thank you!
