This game reminds me a lot of Environmental Station Alpha, which is entirely a good thing. The graphics are nice, the playing field is easily visible and defined despite the limited palette, and the game plays well. I particularly like how as far as powerups go, you got the double jump first.
I'm a big fan of the Observer boss. Really fun and intuitive. Despite it being a bit challenging, I was able to beat it on my first try since it was a natural evolution of the mechanics I had just learned. I love it when games do that. My only complaint I have from my time playing is that the flies in the second area can be a bit much at first since they're small yet come in such big numbers. I'd either make their hurtbox just a bit larger, or maybe decrease their numbers slightly. Great work!

The flies are indeed hard. they'll definitely be tweaked somehow, or at least this area of the game. The very narrow space and the insane amount of flies isn't a very good introduction to them. Even tho you can walk past them, this is really not a reflex most people have. and not one I want them to have either.
Thanks a lot for the feedback! and yes it definitely has some ESA inspiration! but hopefully less cryptic.
