Despite the name of the jam, I wasn’t expecting the change in scenery! Having two sides of the game with different jumping parameters is a fun concept.
I found the ‘dead’ part to be very difficult, I tried playing super cautiously, but the 1 hit deaths, and a lack of checkpoints made it very hard. The camera also seems to hang high in the air, and there are a lot of places where you need to see whats below you, so you don’t run into an enemy, which caused some frustrating deaths.
The character animation is super clean, and having the rats explode into blood on death with the sound effect made crushing them very visceral, which was pretty fun.
