Super creative idea, I feel like you could do a ton with it. The one thing that holds the game back is the character movement. The game should have coyote time and buffered jump probably. Besides that, excellent.
That's also my main gripes with it, we didn't have much time to playtest before submitting but that's absolutely the immediate thing I'd change about it
Buffered jump for sure could have been in there, I didn't want it at the time but I see how useful it could have been now. The game does have coyote time, but it was only set to about 0.1 seconds upon build. I appreciate the review, the game would have benefitted from playtesters like yourself!
