Was very fun intro. Like the playful colours. Cute characters and interesting sprites! Please move the popup / text to the top that has nothing going on, covered the stage and couldn't see for most of the game, spent a lot of time pressing space to get rid of it mid way through gameplay. Pausing the player controls for the quick text, then return to play would be good, enjoyed the level design and the blades were fun, longer levels would be great! I liked the strange bird too! A whole level with them chasing you and you hiding and running under platforms. Great ideas, would be great to see them filled out into more screens before hitting a boss. Great start!
