This felt so good to play! The controls feel very smooth, and the level design is excellent. This game is a lot of fun even though I died A LOT

Thanks a lot for playing! I’m glad you had fun and I appreciate your feedback. (I might have made it a little hard lol) Good luck with the jam!

I love the art style and difficulty of this game. I would love to see this as a full game. (p.s. either the glitchy glide box is broken or I just suck at the game)

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for playing! Also could you please tell me if you were able to complete the game? (I want to know if I set the right difficulty for the game) Good luck with the jam :)

I beat every level besides the one where it first tells you how to use the glide mechanic.

Thanks a lot for your time and feedback!

Excellent. Loved the game. Polished and fun (and hard). Easily best I have played so far. 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, I tried to keep it at moderate difficulty since it was for a game jam but I’m glad you had fun with it. Good luck with the jam!

Very cool. I was not expecting that to be so fun. Well done hitting every diversifier and creating a super playable and enjoyable game.

Crushed it.

Good luck with the jam.

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing :) I’m not sure I hit the Animal Characters and 4 colour palette though. Goodluck as well!

Wow! The music, the animations, the art all of it was fantastic, but they pale in comparison to the gameplay, which was just phenomenal. I thought it might get repetitive, but the game was just challenging enough to be enjoyable, without dragging too much in any one place, the new mechanics were all really fun and inventive. The only thing I can say that is even remotely negative is that the tutorial screens were a pretty bright flash for me. (I think the game is pretty self explanatory and almost doesn't need them) In the end I would give this game 10/10 if I could.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, will keep that in mind for future jams :)

5*.  Without a doubt the most polished game I've played so far in this jam. Finally geometry dash has a narrative!

Seriously, I can't believe this was made by one person. Big congrats. Had a lot of fun
