This was a fun game! I actually stuck it out all the way through and got all 42 life gems. I thought it was really cool that at every altar where you got a new ability there were multiple ways to go depending on which upgrades you had gotten at that point. I thought I might get lost in the big map but navigating around it really wasn't too bad at all. There were just a few little things I'd like to see tightened up. I think right now the character is holding the boomerang a little far away from his body. It made throwing it a little wonky sometimes because you would be holding it in a wall even though you weren't that close to it. There was also a part where I almost softlocked myself out of getting a gem, at the part where it's in a little narrow tunnel where you can't quite reach and there's a purple switch above it. I think I maybe hit the switch to early or something and it spawned a box so I couldn't hit the gem with my boomerang. from the ledge on the other side. It took several minutes of me jumping into the wall and throwing it at different angles before I finally got lucky and hit it. Other than those two things though, I thought it was really fun and atmospheric! The character controller felt really great to move and throw the boomerang, especially after you got the running boots. Good job!
