First of all, gorgeous art, the little expressions of the horse and rider are super endearing! This is a bit nit picky but I feel there should have been a dying animation - sometimes the horse would keep running through the spikes, and I'd think "Oh, I made it" just to find out I didn't really make it at all, which was not a good feeling. And the main mechanic was quite tricky to get used to, although this game is excellently designed when it comes to gradually introducing new mechanics! Plus the concept itself is a genius take on the theme, a bit funny, and a great way to mix up 2d platforming. Great work!
