This was really cool. I think the idea could be expanded upon a lot more too!

An extremely underrated game. I expected this one to easily get top 10 in a lot of categories. I think it was just too hard for a game jam setting. These Bennet Foddy games are for a very niche set of gamers that are both skilled and enjoy punishment.
Great entry! I gave it 5s almost every category when I rated it. Good luck in future jams!
Thank you! We put a lot of effort into the audio! Glad you liked the ending. We spent the last days of the jam working almost exclusively on the final pieces of the story to make sure players would get a fun finale haha. The sword ended up just being a small easter egg. We had some ideas on how to make it more interactive for those who found it, but we ran out of time.
Really good game! Had fun the whole way through. Very simple mechanics that had great level design to explore them. Great job!.
The game did have some performance issues on my computer for some reason (Macbook). Every 1 or 2 minutes, the game would randomly get really choppy for about 2 or 3 seconds.
Thanks for playing! What OS/browser are you playing on? Could you speedrun back to that point and see if it happens again? If it freezes again, you can open up your browser console and it should give you the error to share with us (Chrome on Mac is CMD+Option+I and Chrome on Windows is CTRL+Shift+I). Hopefully it doesn't freeze on your second try, though. There is still a lot more content to see from that point! You will want to see how the boy's day ends ;)
If you plan on continuing a semi-regular release schedule, it might be worth it for you to make a Patreon too. You would be surprised at how many people like the idea of monthly donations to creators they like. I pledge to two music theory channels on YouTube because of how much they have helped me learn.
