It seems many of the comments have covered most of the problems I had. Mainly, the hub world feeling clunky and too linear; the key ending the level feeling unsatisfying and jarring; and the softlocks feeling frustrating.
However, there was one major flaw that I cannot forgive, and will not rest until it is resolved. In order to get to certain higher platforms, there will be several platforms stacked above each other, creating what I call a Platform Burger.
Platform Burgers are my worst enemy. The act of repeatedly pressing the jump button and waiting for my character to go up and down, up and down really gets on my nerves for whatever reason. A ladder would fix this, or maybe a little bar you grab onto that pulls you up.
Whatever the case, I wish to see Platform Burgers thrown into the fires while I stand over them, laughing, with not an ounce of remorse.
Overall, GREAT demo. I didn't play the first demo, but this one was fantastic. The "aha!" moments felt good. Also, THANK YOU FOR THE OPTION TO HAVE THE MAGNET BE ATTRACTED TO THE SAME COLOR!!! My brain struggles with things like that, so I was very happy to see the option.
Great job, me matey.
