Hey~ found your game in the discord looking for feedback. I tried to play, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to see a whole lot of the content because I got stuck very early on, unable to jump onto any platform where the enemies are in order to attack them to increase my stats.
From the little bit of the game I was able to see, my feedback for improvement would be:
- increase the jump height. I know that you can do this after you die with upgrades, but as it currently stands, it's difficult for new players to make even the lowest platforms. I think increasing the jump height a bit would help make the game more accessible without making the player overpowered, and you could just increase the jump even more when the player buys upgrades, to make it very easy to land on platforms. In general, I think it doesn't feel good in games when the jump height is just barely enough to make the necessary jumps.
- make sure the crows are rendered in front of everything else in the scene. Right now, they are a very dangerous enemy that can take away your hard-earned points (if I had any) but they can be hard to see when they are hiding behind the columns and background.
I would like to try again if I could figure out how to kill even one enemy to get upgrades (when I played now, I was just stuck on the bottom of the screen, unable to reach any enemies to kill) so please let me know what I missed in order to take down the enemies.
Anyway, congrats on submitting and it looks like a cool game if I could figure out how to play!
