Super polished game! Catchy music, pleasant sound effects, good game pacing, and great attention to detail.

My only suggestion would be to add a checkpoint before the boss fight. I had to navigate through the level several times. But overall, great game!

Congratulations on your submission!

Thanks for playing and yeah many suggested a checkpoint before the boss

A very well done! I'm probably not good enough to beat the virus at this point, but they may just be a me thing ☺

Great game! I love the polish the pixel art has! You are a talented artist!

I really liked the concept and gameplay. Well Done!

Super cool Art and nice idea, to gradually unlock Abilities through an AI. A checkpoint before the Virus would be nice (I had to run through the level ~6 times), although I like that your progress is saved. All in all a great platformer!

Okay, this one is just awesome. OUTSTANDING pixel art! Also super smooth gameplay. I love how the camera is not super stiff and has some damping and delay in it. Also cool mechanics and controls. Good job man!

Really cool game but unfortunately I became stuck after killing the first enemy and had no idea how to progress.

Great work !!!  Unfortunately controls wasn't for me,  I usually prefer arrow keys for movement and while I can move with arrow keys, dashing wasn't working for me as it was with left shift and not working with right shift. Ability to attack with control button would also have been nice for me just like it was in Dangerous Dave  (if anyone even remembers that :P )

Apart from that the game was really good and I enjoyed it a lot even after that. I think it was like metroidvania where you pick up abilities and unlock new areas.

However there was a bug (two to be precise)

1. When played died via spike it respawned in a place where you can't do anything and it dies instantly again via spike

2. Enemy don't die with spike (I don't know whether that was intentional or you couldn't add that due to time limit)

Great game though especially considering the time limit :)

Developer

When you touch the spikes yoh don't die but you get teleported on the ground where the character was. Like in Hollow Knight if you heard of it.

There was a bug where I was always going "back on the platform teleporting" when touching the spikes. Nevertheless, a really good solid game!

This is so cool!  Tell me you didn't do all of this artwork on the weekend???  Either way this is an ambitious entry!  Boss battle and all - nice going!

Submitted(+1)

nice metroidvania-like platformer, pretty polished visuals, sounds and camera. game feels very nice to play. although i had hard time fighting with the boss because i was respawning on the other side of the map and often when i try to hit him i hit myself too.

Submitted

Cool game! Unfortunately the on-death reset sometimes led me to more deaths.

Submitted

Great game

Very nice game! the animations are smooth even the jump which is very hard to do right, the AI that helps you out is cute!
the dashes or on point.
What can I say, great game!

Submitted(+1)

This game was fun but the control are a bit hard, overall great game for a game jam

Developer

Thanks

Awesome game! The art and animations seemed very well made. And I also liked the movement and the abilities of the character. The jump animation reminded me a lot of Super Mario games. I think the boss was a bit too hard because the checkpoint was on the other side of the map. The respawn thing with the spikes was laggy.  Over all the game was really fun experience!  I would really appreciate if you tried out my game too!

Submitted(+1)

I really enjoyed this one! the movement was a lot of fun!

The Boss WAS HARD, i wanna hear who beat it! :D

Wad - "The Movement was tight" like a tiger
