thank you!

thank you so much for playing the game and the feedback! very much appreciated

I really think you should have been ranked higher in this jam. I played all entries and yours was definitely in my top 3.

It had a very cool idea and the art style was absolutely delicious

thanks so much :)

Thank you so much for the honest feedback and playing my game!

For the controls I took some inspiration from Celeste. But I've got a lot of feedback that it turned out to be too fast. Something I need to improve on. Maybe taking inspiration from a precision platformer was not the best decision.

As for the map, there was one. I might not have done a great job to communicate that, though. (M on keyboard or the options button on the gamepad)

The sprite size is also something I just changed for the post-jam version. Or to be precise, not the sprite size, but the resolution. 

You are definitely right about it being bleak and that the areas looked all the same. I had to improvise towards the end and used some external assets and modified them. As long as you give credits you are allowed to do that. But it would have been cooler to do everything by myself. I agree.

For the boss I also see that I need to improve there. It was the first boss I ever coded, so I am happy with the result, even though I realise there is a lot that could be better about it. :)

thank you so much for playing and giving feedback!

Ok, apparently you have to unzip it with WinRAR or 7Zip. That worked for me.

The story is very weird, in a good way. And I liked the sound effects you used.

Unfortunately, I couldn't finish the game, because I fell down into some acid where I got stuck. I did not even get damage, so I did not respawn at a checkpoint either :(

I am curious how it ends

Thank you so much :)

Awesome!

I actually never heard of that engine before :D brave move to make a game in that.

I will check later after work or during my break. Do you by chance also have a web or mac build I could try?

I played it again and it grew a bit more an me than the first time. Once you get used to the controls it is really nice. good job

Your visuals are great

Yeah the camera is an issue. I will fix that in a post-jam version.

Thanks so much for playing and the feedback!

Thank you sooo much! :D

I just saw, I never responded here.

Thank you!

Also, before the 24 hour deadline, I fixed the main sensory issue with the flash that you had. It no longer flashes white but black. Much more soothing for the eyes. And I made the boss a tiny bit slower. You were right, a lot of people actually said it was too fast.

It would be really cool to see a full game of this

thank you :)

no worries, I get it

So, you have the same mechanic in your game as I have in mine and yet I did not think about it. 
What does that say about me. haha :D

Oh nooo. That explains why I couldn't read your comment on my review any more.

valid design decision 

haha thank you for the video, it's hilarious to see this. Didn't know you could cheese your way up.

You're also one of the very few that realized the attack is four-directional at all. That's my bad

that what happens during jams.

People also didn't figure out that the attack is four directional in my game :D

don't beat yourself up about it. Your game is still very good!

And I'm looking forward to seeing more from you in future jams

thanks so much :)

that's very unfortunate :(

thanks so much for your very detailed feedback! I will take these things into consideration, if I decide to continue on this project. These are very valid points.

Thanks so much :D I will check out your video during my break

thanks so much for the review. I will have a look into that!

thanks for the feedback :) really appreciated 

Thanks so much for the feedback! I will let the musician know that you liked his tunes :)

Thanks for playing my game

happened to me too with my boss. I had to tune it down a lot

keep up the good work :)

very impressive 

No need to apologize. You made a game! Be proud :)

I did see the signs, but I didn't know what they meant.

But maybe that's just me being slow :D

I will try again in the next few days and see whether I can reproduce it
