This has to be one of my favorites for sure! Snappy movement, unique abilities and amazingly polished graphics (don’t know why, but I adored the rubber ducky!).
Other people have already commented profusely on all the good aspects, so I’ll simply limit myself to listing what I thought needed improving:
- Having to always respawn at the beginning on death was slightly annoying. I think you could have used the wall sockets as checkpoints, at least until the next reset (good thing the movement felt great, otherwise having to repeat already visited sections so many times would have been infuriating)
- The reset at night mechanic was very annoying. I get this was inspired by another game, but it still felt kinda out of place and unnecessary, especially in a metroidvania
Apart from these issues, I had a blast playing this! Absolutely fantastic job!
