I love the style of this game, it reminds me of Celeste! The game controls well and is a lot of fun to play. Escaping "him" always got my heart pounding! I just think that there should be more checkpoints. Also, after getting caught by "him" on should not restart the entire level. I think it is a bit harsh because the game is already difficult. Great job!

That’s great to hear! Celeste was actually the primary source of inspiration for the game’s aesthetics; AxeHam did a great job with that. Also, we definitely overdid it with the game’s difficulty level haha. In hindsight, the level definitely should have been slightly easier and there should have been less of a reliance on the cheating mechanic for obstacle completion (rather instead being for optional assistance and speedrunning). We will keep this in mind with future games; thank you for the feedback!
