Nice game. But I think you go right into big and hard (although not that hard) levels. And the thing were you start a level about to die is kinda annoying - a little more time would be nice. Next time try to start a little smoother. Also, nice music and nice idea applying various skins.
If you could also check and rate my game, I would really appreaciate.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback

Really nice concept. Maybe you can made hold space button so it will keep jumping when pressed just like geometry dash game. Other than that It was really fun game to play and the art was simple and good liked it :D

Developer

Thank you for the feedback

nice game looks very cool and i love the visuals <3
keep doing the great stuff brother <3

Developer

Thanks bro!

Cool Game. But I think adding a short "You're Dead" screen after you die will be better than restarting the scene. and add some crossfade scene transitioning to spice up the game a bit

Developer

Yeah, that’s a good idea. Thanks

This was really well made good job

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

I enjoyed it. Mechanics were crisp and I also liked the color pallette (though broad). Good job

Could you please play and rate my game as well?

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. I guess I'll rate

The game concept and implementation was really nice and I really enjoyed the game. Just a touch up on visuals like post processing and particle system and it would be very awesome. The levels were quite varied. But one level you drop right next to spikes was a bit unfair. Apart from that great game.

Could you please take the time to check out my game as well. It would really mean a lot to me if you checked it out.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. I suppose I'll check yours out

Submitted (1 edit)

I love the game concept and it actually similar to my game,check it out.However,the game mechanic and level design should get a tremendous improvement on it. I suggest the game testing section be like: die less than 3 times too easy, die 3-5 okay, die 10 times more unsolvable.I did this in my game hope it helps!


(P.S. I sure we can't pass through level 4 no matter how fast I press the spacebar: >>,tried 10 times more :>>)

Developer

Interesting suggestion. Thanks. I did notice how are game are a bit similar : )

First, I think the name is clever, I like stuff like this!

The gameplay feels nice and exiting, except for the jump, It is a bit late sometimes but nothing too bad! I really like challenging games like this and had a great time playing it!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you noticed my palindrome! Thanks for playing

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! I think it's really cool. The only thing I think needs to be changed is the jump. It's so hard to jump and it makes the game a lot harder (which can be a good thing...)

Developer(+1)

Thank you. I did the annoying jump to add challenge but I realized that people might stay longer if there is a little buffering

Submitted(+1)

Really nice game :) The difficulty increase with each level is well done and the core mechanic of the game is enjoyable. I hope you keep at it and make a full game out of it ;)

Developer(+1)

Thank you. I'm super glad you enjoyed it

Submitted(+1)

I was a really big fan of your puzzle design, I thought the mechanics you chose were quite clever and the controls are nice and simple. I do think some jumps are really tight, but they wouldn't be as bad with some input buffering. Overall really solid and could be great with some more polish.

Developer

Yeah, I'm getting a lot of feedback regarding buffering and that's something I should have done during the jam. I will definitely do that later. Thanks for the feedback

Submitted(+1)

The jumps are pretty tight i think. Although it adds difficulty to the game, it's sometimes really frustrating. But otherwise pretty nice made, with these mirrors which switch your direction and the level design.

Developer

Yeah thanks, I'll be sure to do some jump buffering

Submitted(+1)

I loved the idea for the rewind! The music sets a great ambience too. 

My only points is to polish the visuals and the mechanic of the jump. Sometimes the jump don't occur. 

Great job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you. I'm glad that the ambience vibe came out how I intended it too

Submitted(+1)

Glad to hear! 

If you have time, check our game too~

Have a great day, friend!

Developer

you too

Submitted(+1)

Great job! The idea behind the rewind mechanic turns the game satisfactorily difficult, i guess it just needs a little bit more of polishment.

Congrats!

Developer

Thank you. I will definitely update it after the jam

Submitted(+1)

i like the idea behind this, the jump did feel unresponsive at times though. Overall pretty good though!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback 

Submitted(+1)

The lack of those small platformers tricks like coyote time and jump buffering made it a bit too frustrating for my tastes, but I really like the one-button game approach, good job!

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you. The coyote time is a great idea.

Submitted(+1)

really love the mechanic and I can feel the geometry dash from this big fan!!

Developer

Cool, thank you

Submitted(+1)

Super cool mechanic, never seen this before and it works really well!

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

Very unique geometry-dash-ish platformer with some pretty challenging levels.

Bonus points for some really funny character options

Developer

Thank you. I sorta based the red gangster one after Gun Mayhem

Submitted(+1)

I picked the guchi one, but had a good laugh at the one thats just a blury screenshot of geometry dash

Developer

Yeah, Dani with the guchi banana was my favorite. I actually created the geometry dash one to look like the geometry dude, but your story is better. Can I have permission to tell people that? lol

Submitted(+1)

lol yea sure
