Cool idea. Lacks animation which hurts it... a lot. Gravity feels off, as well.

Lacks a lot, and I mean, a lot of polish.

One of the biggest issues however is the level design. What could be executed well with decent levels was not executed well. One thing I advise against is that whole thing at the start of levels where I had to kill myself several times to be able to make it past the first obstacle. That part felt like a 30 second chore and threw off the pacing a lot.

Overall? Pretty cool.

Not a bad game, but it could definitely use some work! I liked the mechanic of getting bigger jumps, but I feel that it takes way too many deaths to actually be able to jump high enough to progress through the level. While slamming my body into a pile of spikes is pretty fun, doing it 10 times immediately as I start the level just so I can make some of the next jumps is a little annoying.

Despite this, the art was pretty good and I liked playing it! Good work!

Good main idea! Fun game overall but could use some more polish.

Nice idea, although after dying for a while it's not possible to complete some levels

(+1)

the idea was good, however, it was performed badly, some of the level design was...well...horrid due to the mechanics, also it was quite buggy, I got soft locked in level 6 due to a glitch and had to restart!

overall an 4/10 for me

I liked the idea but it two of the levels my jump height became so big that I couldn't win
