• Aria is a great foundation for a game, but needed more playtesting! The adaptation of the theme is great, and the artwork for the little astronaut is charming, but the simple gameplay and under-planned level design hold it back. There are 2 sections in the map which soft-lock the player, which stopped me collecting the last orb in one instance and I had no option but to fall to my death. Also after collecting all the orbs the game continued running without a game over screen, which could maybe be a bug? The music and atmosphere were great, and I love the little jetpack animation which the character does while jumping. I'd love to see further development on this idea, maybe incorporating the space theme into the gameplay so the player could perform a rocket jump, or dodge asteroids which come flying by? You should continue this project and work more on it, as you've already made a solid foundation over the course of the game jam, and I'd love to see where you take the idea further.
