I tried some of your other itch games last night & can see that you've been working on some of these ideas for a while! I can see that the screen shake is actually toned down from previous games so that's nice. One of your older games was actually unplayable for me because of the shake. kafaildalf seemed slightly more severe than Apocalypse Angel too, although I was able to play that one. I can understand leaving features on the table because of the time limit. Like I said, I was shocked at how much content the game had considering the time limit.

Switching restart to the grapple button sounds like a good idea to me. I did forget to mention one minor thing, I think the "Press jump to restart" text would be better in the center of the screen. It's not a big deal since you learn how to restart early on, but there were a few times it took a couple seconds to figure out I was dead because the text was hard to spot.

Thanks again for the game! I'm following you on itch now, so I look forward to any revisions you have as well as your next game!

yeah i was told the screen shake was a bit much, i get motion sickness to but mostly from a lack of fov sliders not so much screen shake

kinda like to think you went chronologically to see the progression
the messenger made me think of the hit to jump.  in hollow knight, hitting an enemy also recharges your double jump (a lot of games use this mechanic actually) but it was used for combat and i did platforming game play because i like designing levels.  kafaldaf was a much more thought out implementation by using a flail as the weapon but people weren't resonating with it (being about pure platforming) so i wanted to make something action-y and the outer space theme helped a lot with implementing the new mechanics
probably should mention that the rooms are really quick to make (at least for this game)
was a busy month so i just worked on the game at a leisurely pace
and there are people who are way faster at game dev than me
it just takes a lot of practice
thank you for playing, its my pleasure
