This is a really solid game you have here! I appreciated the overall mechanic, but I found myself dying a lot of times which I think is intended. This unique mechanic requires a lot of trial and error, so I wonder if you can make the deaths less discouraging or somehow make them encouraging? The sound effects were a little loud, so my multiple deaths and run-throughs started to sound the same. Still, you have a very clever take on the theme and a very unique mechanic. Great job!

Antithesis VergeI really like the base concept of not seeing every part of the Jump'n'Run it's a very interesting take on that genre. But the sounds are to loud for my opinion a Menu to regulate them would have been amazing and some background music could've made it even better as well. Besides that very cool game and well done especially the pixel Art it looks amazing :P

Flute'n'DrillThe game is pretty neat and the art looks really good! But the main mechanic of not being able to see in some parts is pretty frustrating when i feel into a pit of spikes i wasnt able to see. The sound effects are fine but a bit of music whould of been nice to have but alas its a game jam, what else can you expect? Anyway pretty great game and if i had to give it a rating out of five i would give it a 3.5/5.

The Black Hole GizmoSolid game. The art is nice and the controls are responsive (although the movement is a bit slippery) and the concept itself is nice and simple. This is a great entry to the jam! Give my game a try too :)
