I'm liking it so far! If I could suggest a couple of small improvements:

It's sometimes difficult to wall jump because if you press away from the wall, you immediately move off of it, and can't jump. I'd suggest implementing a feature where holding away from the wall doesn't immediately detach the player, but instead waits like 10 frames or so. Most popular platformers with wall jumping do this, and it makes wall jumping feel a lot more responsive.

Being able to move with the arrow keys would be nice too, should be an easy thing to implement.

Other than that I really enjoy it! Sliding feels super great and the levels are challenging! Going to keep an eye out for further development updates (Came here from r/godot)

Thanks!

- That's a good idea. Since you can jump before changing direction, I didn't think it was necessary to implement, but I might as well let the player have about .1 seconds if they prefer changing direction before jumping.

- It's already to possible to remap all actions (except for returning to the overworld and viewing the credits, since they're temporary) through the pause menu, which can be accessed with Escape. There are no instructions about this in the game yet; it's currently only mentioned in the game's description here on itch.io (and in the various Reddit threads).
